But to Cain H7014 and to his offering H4503 he had not respect. H8159 And Cain H7014 was very H3966 wroth, H2734 and his countenance H6440 fell. H5307

And Cain H7014 talked H559 with Abel H1893 his brother: H251 and it came H1961 to pass, when they were in the field, H7704 that Cain H7014 rose H6965 up against H413 Abel H1893 his brother, H251 and slew H2026 him.

And when Abner H74 was returned H7725 to Hebron, H2275 Joab H3097 took him aside H5186 in the gate H8179 to speak H1696 with him quietly, H7987 and smote H5221 him there H8033 under the fifth H2570 rib, that he died, H4191 for the blood H1818 of Asahel H6214 his brother. H251

And Absalom H53 spoke H1696 to his brother Amnon H550 neither H3808 good H2896 nor bad: H7451 for Absalom H53 hated H8130 Amnon, H550 because H5921 he had forced H6031 his sister H269 Tamar. H8559

Now Absalom H53 had commanded H6680 his servants, H5288 saying, H559 Mark H7200 you now H4994 when Amnon's H550 heart H3820 is merry H2896 with wine, H3196 and when I say H559 to you, Smite H5221 Amnon; H550 then kill H4191 him, fear H3372 not: have not I commanded H6680 you? be courageous, H2388 and be valiant. H1121 H2428

And the servants H5288 of Absalom H53 did H6213 to Amnon H550 as Absalom H53 had commanded. H6680 Then all H3605 the king's H4428 sons H1121 arose, H6965 and every man H376 got H7392 him up on his mule, H6505 and fled. H5127

But Amasa H6021 took no H3808 heed H8104 to the sword H2719 that was in Joab's H3097 hand: H3027 so he smote H5221 him therewith in the fifth H2570 rib, and shed H8210 out his bowels H4578 to the ground, H776 and struck H8138 him not again; H8138 and he died. H4191 So Joab H3097 and Abishai H52 his brother H251 pursued H7291 after H310 Sheba H7652 the son H1121 of Bichri. H1075

Moreover H1571 you know H3045 also H1571 what H853 H834 Joab H3097 the son H1121 of Zeruiah H6870 did H6213 to me, and what H834 he did H6213 to the two H8147 captains H8269 of the hosts H6635 of Israel, H3478 to Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner, H5369 and to Amasa H6021 the son H1121 of Jether, H3500 whom he slew, H2026 and shed H7760 the blood H1818 of war H4421 in peace, H7965 and put H5414 the blood H1818 of war H4421 on his girdle H2290 that was about his loins, H4975 and in his shoes H5275 that were on his feet. H7272

Do H6213 therefore according to your wisdom, H2451 and let not his hoar H7872 head go H3381 down H3381 to the grave H7585 in peace. H7965

And the king H4428 said H559 to him, Do H6213 as he has said, H1696 and fall H6293 on him, and bury H6912 him; that you may take H5493 away H5493 the innocent H2600 blood, H1818 which H834 Joab H3097 shed, H8210 from me, and from the house H1004 of my father. H1

Their blood H1818 shall therefore return H7725 on the head H7218 of Joab, H3097 and on the head H7218 of his seed H2233 for ever: H5769 but on David, H1732 and on his seed, H2233 and on his house, H1004 and on his throne, H3678 shall there be peace H7965 for ever H5769 from the LORD. H3068

He that hates H8130 dissembles H5234 with his lips, H8193 and lays H7896 up deceit H4820 within H7130 him;

A man that does violence H6231 to the blood H1818 of any person H5315 shall flee H5127 to the pit; H953 let no H408 man H120 stay H8551 him.

And rose G450 up, and thrust G1544 him out of the city, G4172 and led G71 him to the brow G3790 of the hill G3735 where on G1909 G3739 their city G4172 was built, G3618 that they might cast G2630 him down G2630 headlong. G2630

But if H3588 a man H376 come presumptuously H2102 on his neighbor, H7453 to slay H2026 him with guile; H6195 you shall take H3947 him from my altar, H4196 that he may die. H4191

But if H3588 any man H376 hate H8130 his neighbor, H7453 and lie H693 in wait H693 for him, and rise H6965 up against H5921 him, and smite H5221 him mortally H5315 that he die, H4191 and flees H5127 into H413 one H259 of these H411 cities: H5892

And it came H1961 to pass on the morrow, H4283 that the evil H7451 spirit H7307 from God H430 came H6743 on Saul, H7586 and he prophesied H5012 in the middle H8432 of the house: H1004 and David H1732 played H5059 with his hand, H3027 as at other times: H3117 and there was a javelin H2595 in Saul's H7586 hand. H3027

And Saul H7586 cast H2904 the javelin; H2595 for he said, H559 I will smite H5221 David H1732 even to the wall H7023 with it. And David H1732 avoided H5437 out of his presence H6440 twice. H6471

And Saul H7586 said, H559 Thus H3541 shall you say H559 to David, H1732 The king H4428 desires H2656 not any dowry, H4119 but an hundred H3967 foreskins H6190 of the Philistines, H6430 to be avenged H5358 of the king's H4428 enemies. H341 But Saul H7586 thought H2803 to make David H1732 fall H5307 by the hand H3027 of the Philistines. H6430

And the evil H7451 spirit H7307 from the LORD H3068 was on Saul, H7586 as he sat H3427 in his house H1004 with his javelin H2595 in his hand: H3027 and David H1732 played H5059 with his hand. H3027

Saul H7586 also sent H7971 messengers H4397 to David's H1732 house, H1004 to watch H8104 him, and to slay H4191 him in the morning: H1242 and Michal H4324 David's H1732 wife H802 told H5046 him, saying, H559 If H518 you save H4422 not your life H5315 to night, H3915 to morrow H4279 you shall be slain. H4191

And David H1732 fled H1272 from Naioth H5121 in Ramah, H7414 and came H935 and said H559 before H6440 Jonathan, H3083 What H4100 have I done? H6213 what H4100 is my iniquity? H5771 and what H4100 is my sin H2403 before H6440 your father, H1 that he seeks H1245 my life? H5315

And it was told H5046 Saul H7586 that David H1732 was come H935 to Keilah. H7084 And Saul H7586 said, H559 God H430 has delivered H5234 him into my hand; H3027 for he is shut H5462 in, by entering H935 into a town H5892 that has gates H1817 and bars. H1280

And David H1732 knew H3045 that Saul H7586 secretly H2790 practiced H2790 mischief H7451 against H5921 him; and he said H559 to Abiathar H54 the priest, H3548 Bring H5066 here H5066 the ephod. H646

Moreover, my father, H1 see, H7200 yes, H637 see H7200 the skirt H3671 of your robe H4598 in my hand: H3027 for in that I cut H3772 off the skirt H3671 of your robe, H4598 and killed H2026 you not, know H3045 you and see H7200 that there is neither H369 evil H7451 nor transgression H6588 in my hand, H3027 and I have not sinned H2398 against you; yet you hunt H6658 my soul H5315 to take H3947 it.

His mouth H6310 is full H4390 of cursing H423 and deceit H4820 and fraud: H8496 under H8478 his tongue H3956 is mischief H5999 and vanity. H205

He lies in wait H693 secretly H4565 as a lion H738 in his den: H5520 he lies in wait H693 to catch H2414 the poor: H6041 he does catch H2414 the poor, H6041 when he draws H4900 him into his net. H7568

For, see, H2009 the wicked H7563 bend H1869 their bow, H7198 they make ready H3559 their arrow H2671 on the string, H3499 that they may privately H652 shoot H3384 at the upright H3477 in heart. H3820

For without H2600 cause H2600 have they hid H2934 for me their net H7568 in a pit, H7845 which without H2600 cause H2600 they have dig H2658 for my soul. H5315

Let destruction H7722 come H935 on him at unawares; H3045 and let his net H7568 that he has hid H2934 catch H3920 himself: into that very destruction H7722 let him fall. H5307

My soul H5315 is among H8432 lions: H3833 and I lie H7901 even among them that are set on fire, H3857 even the sons H1121 of men, H120 whose teeth H8127 are spears H2595 and arrows, H2671 and their tongue H3956 a sharp H2299 sword. H2719

They have prepared H3559 a net H7568 for my steps; H6471 my soul H5315 is bowed H3721 down: they have dig H3738 a pit H7882 before H6440 me, into the middle H8432 whereof they are fallen H5307 themselves. Selah. H5542

And they lay wait H693 for their own blood; H1818 they lurk H6845 privately for their own lives. H5315

So H3651 are the ways H734 of every H3605 one that is greedy H1214 of gain; H1214 which takes H3947 away the life H5315 of the owners H1167 thereof.

Therefore Herodias G2266 had a quarrel G1758 against him, and would G2309 have killed G615 him; but she could G1410 not:

And she went G1831 forth, G1831 and said G2036 to her mother, G3384 What G5101 shall I ask? G154 And she said, G2036 The head G2776 of John G2491 the Baptist. G910

And the king G935 was exceeding G4036 sorry; G4036 yet for his oath's G3727 sake, and for their sakes which G3588 sat G4873 with him, he would G2309 not reject G114 her.

And there stayed G4160 three G5140 months. G3376 And when the Jews G2453 laid G1096 wait G1096 G1917 for him, as he was about G3195 to sail G321 into G1519 Syria, G4947 he purposed G1096 G1106 to return G5290 through G1223 Macedonia. G3109

But do not you yield G3982 to them: for there lie in wait G1748 for him of them more G4119 than forty G5062 men, G435 which G3748 have bound G332 themselves G1438 with an oath, G332 that they will neither G3383 eat G5315 nor drink G4095 till G2193 they have killed G337 him: and now G3568 are they ready, G2092 looking G4327 for a promise G1860 from you.
