But if G1487 our unrighteousness G93 commend G4921 the righteousness G1343 of God, G2316 what G5101 shall we say? G2046 Is God G2316 unrighteous G94 who G3588 takes G2018 vengeance? G3709 (I speak G3004 as a man) G444

What G5101 shall we say G2046 then G3767 that Abraham G11 our father, G3962 as pertaining to the flesh, G4561 has found? G2147

What G5101 shall we say G2046 then? G3767 Shall we continue G1961 in sin, G266 that grace G5485 may abound? G4121

What G5101 shall we say G2046 then? G3767 Is the law G3551 sin? G266 God G3361 G1096 forbid. G3361 G1096 No, G235 I had not known G1097 sin, G266 but by the law: G3551 for I had not known G1492 lust, G1939 except G1508 the law G3551 had said, G3004 You shall not covet. G1937

And there are also G2532 many G4183 other G243 things which G3745 Jesus G2424 did, G4160 the which, G3748 if G1437 they should be written G1125 every G2596 one, G1520 I suppose G3633 that even G3761 the world G2889 itself G846 could not contain G5562 the books G975 that should be written. G1125 Amen. G281

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD: H3068 and the LORD H3068 delivered H5414 them into the hand H3027 of Midian H4080 seven H7651 years. H8141

And so it was, when H518 Israel H3478 had sown, H2232 that the Midianites H4080 came H5927 up, and the Amalekites, H6003 and the children H1121 of the east, H6924 even they came H5927 up against H5921 them;

For they came H5927 up with their cattle H4735 and their tents, H168 and they came H935 as grasshoppers H697 for multitude; H7230 for both they and their camels H1581 were without H369 number: H4557 and they entered H935 into the land H776 to destroy H7843 it.

And it came H1961 to pass, when H3588 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H2199 to the LORD H3068 because H5921 H182 of the Midianites, H4080

And the LORD H3068 sent H7971 Jerubbaal, H3378 and Bedan, H917 and Jephthah, H3316 and Samuel, H8050 and delivered H5337 you out of the hand H3027 of your enemies H341 on every H5437 side, H5439 and you dwelled H3427 safe. H983

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 again H3254 did H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD, H3068 when Ehud H261 was dead. H4191

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H6817 to the LORD: H3068 for he had nine H8672 hundred H3967 chariots H7393 of iron; H1270 and twenty H6242 years H8141 he mightily H2393 oppressed H3905 the children H1121 of Israel. H3478

And she dwelled H3427 under H8478 the palm H8560 tree of Deborah H1683 between H996 Ramah H7414 and Bethel H1008 in mount H2022 Ephraim: H669 and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 came H5927 up to her for judgment. H4941

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 evil H7451 again H3254 in the sight H5869 of the LORD; H3068 and the LORD H3068 delivered H5414 them into the hand H3027 of the Philistines H6430 forty H705 years. H8141

And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 appeared H7200 to the woman, H802 and said H559 to her, Behold H2009 now, H4994 you are barren, H6135 and bore H3205 not: but you shall conceive, H2029 and bear H3205 a son. H1121

For, see, H2009 you shall conceive, H2030 and bear H3205 a son; H1121 and no H3808 razor H4177 shall come H5927 on H5921 his head: H7218 for the child H5288 shall be a Nazarite H5139 to God H430 from the womb: H990 and he shall begin H2490 to deliver H3467 Israel H3478 out of the hand H3027 of the Philistines. H6430

But he said H559 to me, Behold, H2009 you shall conceive, H2030 and bear H3205 a son; H1121 and now H6258 drink H7941 no H408 wine H3196 nor strong drink, H8354 neither H408 eat H398 any H3605 unclean H2932 thing: for the child H5288 shall be a Nazarite H5139 to God H430 from the womb H990 to the day H3117 of his death. H4194

And God H430 listened H8085 to the voice H6963 of Manoah; H4495 and the angel H4397 of God H430 came H935 again H5750 to the woman H802 as she sat H3427 in the field: H7704 but Manoah H4495 her husband H376 was not with her.

And Manoah H4495 arose, H6965 and went H3212 after H310 his wife, H802 and came H935 to the man, H376 and said H559 to him, Are you the man H376 that spoke H1696 to the woman? H802 And he said, H559 I am.

And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 to Manoah, H4495 Of all H3605 that I said H559 to the woman H802 let her beware. H8104

And Manoah H4495 said H559 to the angel H4397 of the LORD, H3068 I pray H4994 you, let us detain H6113 you, until H5704 we shall have made H6213 ready a kid H1423 H5795 for you.

Now Jephthah H3316 the Gileadite H1569 was a mighty H1368 man of valor, H2428 and he was the son H1121 of an harlot: H2181 and Gilead H1568 begat H3205 Jephthah. H3316

Then Jephthah H3316 fled H1272 from his brothers, H251 and dwelled H3427 in the land H776 of Tob: H2897 and there were gathered H3950 vain H7386 men H582 to Jephthah, H3316 and went H3318 out with him.

And it was so, that when H834 the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 made war H3898 against H5973 Israel, H3478 the elders H2205 of Gilead H1568 went H3212 to fetch H3947 Jephthah H3316 out of the land H776 of Tob: H2897

And Jephthah H3316 said H559 to the elders H2205 of Gilead, H1568 Did not you hate H8130 me, and expel H1644 me out of my father's H1 house? H1004 and why H4069 are you come H935 to me now H6258 when H834 you are in distress? H6887

And Jephthah H3316 said H559 to the elders H2205 of Gilead, H1568 If H518 you bring H7725 me home H7725 again H7725 to fight H3898 against the children H1121 of Ammon, H5983 and the LORD H3068 deliver H5414 them before H6440 me, shall I be your head? H7218

Then Jephthah H3316 went H3212 with the elders H2205 of Gilead, H1568 and the people H5971 made H7760 him head H7218 and captain H7101 over H5921 them: and Jephthah H3316 uttered H1696 all H3605 his words H1697 before H6440 the LORD H3068 in Mizpeh. H4709

And the LORD H3068 said H559 to Samuel, H8050 How H5704 long H5704 will you mourn H56 for Saul, H7586 seeing I have rejected H3988 him from reigning H4427 over H5921 Israel? H3478 fill H4390 your horn H7161 with oil, H8081 and go, H3212 I will send H7971 you to Jesse H3448 the Bethlehemite: H1022 for I have provided H7200 me a king H4428 among his sons. H1121

Then Samuel H8050 took H3947 the horn H7161 of oil, H8081 and anointed H4886 him in the middle H7130 of his brothers: H251 and the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 came H6743 on David H1732 from that day H3117 forward. H4605 So Samuel H8050 rose H6965 up, and went H3212 to Ramah. H7414

Now the Philistines H6430 gathered H622 together their armies H4264 to battle, H4421 and were gathered H622 together at Shochoh, H7755 which H834 belongs to Judah, H3063 and pitched H2583 between H996 Shochoh H7755 and Azekah, H5825 in Ephesdammim. H658

And the Philistines H6430 stood H5975 on H413 a mountain H2022 on H413 the one H2088 side, and Israel H3478 stood H5975 on H413 a mountain H2022 on H413 the other H2088 side: and there was a valley H1516 between H996 them.

And he had an helmet H3553 of brass H5178 on his head, H7218 and he was armed H3847 with a coat H8302 of mail; H7193 and the weight H4948 of the coat H8302 was five H2568 thousand H505 shekels H8255 of brass. H5178

And the staff H2671 of his spear H2595 was like a weaver's H707 beam; H4500 and his spear's H2595 head H3852 weighed six H8337 hundred H3967 shekels H8255 of iron: H1270 and one bearing H5375 a shield H6793 went H1980 before H6440 him.

If H518 he be able H3201 to fight H3898 with me, and to kill H5221 me, then will we be your servants: H5650 but if H518 I prevail H3201 against him, and kill H5221 him, then shall you be our servants, H5650 and serve H5647 us.

When Saul H7586 and all H3605 Israel H3478 heard H8085 those H428 words H1697 of the Philistine, H6430 they were dismayed, H2865 and greatly H3966 afraid. H3372

And the three H7969 oldest H1419 sons H1121 of Jesse H3448 went H3212 and followed H1980 H310 Saul H7586 to the battle: H4421 and the names H8034 of his three H7969 sons H1121 that went H1980 to the battle H4421 were Eliab H446 the firstborn, H1060 and next H4932 to him Abinadab, H41 and the third H7992 Shammah. H8048

But David H1732 went H1980 and returned H7725 from Saul H7586 to feed H7462 his father's H1 sheep H6629 at Bethlehem. H1035

And Jesse H3448 said H559 to David H1732 his son, H1121 Take H3947 now H4994 for your brothers H251 an ephah H374 of this H2088 parched H7039 corn, and these H2088 ten H6235 loaves, H3899 and run H7323 to the camp H4264 of your brothers; H251

Men G435 and brothers, G80 let G1832 me freely G3326 G3954 speak G2036 to you of the patriarch G3966 David, G1138 that he is both G2532 dead G5053 and buried, G2290 and his sepulcher G3418 is with us to this G5026 day. G2250

He seeing G4275 this before G4275 spoke G2980 of the resurrection G386 of Christ, G5547 that his soul G5590 was not left G2641 in hell, G86 neither G3761 his flesh G4561 did see G1492 corruption. G1312

And when he had removed G3179 him, he raised G1453 up to them David G1138 to be their king; G935 to whom G3739 also G2532 he gave G3140 their testimony, G3140 and said, G2036 I have found G2147 David G1138 the son G5207 of Jesse, G2421 a man G435 after G2596 my G3450 own heart, G2588 which G3739 shall fulfill G4160 all G3956 my will. G2307

When John G2491 had first preached G4296 before G4253 G4383 his coming G1529 the baptism G908 of repentance G3341 to all G3956 the people G2992 of Israel. G2474

Men G435 and brothers, G80 children G5207 of the stock G1085 of Abraham, G11 and whoever G3588 among G1722 you fears G5399 God, G2316 to you is the word G3056 of this G5026 salvation G4991 sent. G649

And though they found G2147 no G3367 cause G156 of death G2288 in him, yet desired G154 they Pilate G4091 that he should be slain. G337

But God G2316 raised G1453 him from the dead: G3498

And we declare G2097 to you glad G2097 tidings, G2097 how that the promise G1860 which was made G1096 to the fathers, G3962

And as concerning G3754 that he raised G450 him up from the dead, G3498 now no G3371 more G2001 to return G5290 to corruption, G1312 he said G5346 on this G3779 wise, I will give G1325 you the sure G4103 mercies G3741 of David. G1138

For David, G1138 after he had served G5256 his own G2398 generation G1074 by the will G1012 of God, G2316 fell on sleep, G2837 and was laid G4369 to his fathers, G3962 and saw G1492 corruption: G1312

Why it came H1961 to pass, when the time H3117 was come H8622 about after Hannah H2584 had conceived, H2029 that she bore H3205 a son, H1121 and called H7121 his name H8034 Samuel, H8050 saying, Because H3588 I have asked H7592 him of the LORD. H3068

And Elkanah H511 went H3212 to Ramah H7414 to his house. H1004 And the child H5288 did H1961 minister H8334 to the LORD H3068 before H854 H6440 Eli H5941 the priest. H3548

But Samuel H8050 ministered H8334 before H854 H6440 the LORD, H3068 being a child, H5288 girded H2296 with a linen H906 ephod. H646

And the child H5288 Samuel H8050 ministered H8334 to the LORD H3068 before H6440 Eli. H5941 And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 was precious H3368 in those H1992 days; H3117 there was no H369 open H6555 vision. H2377

And ere H2962 the lamp H5216 of God H430 went H3518 out in the temple H1964 of the LORD, H3068 where H834 H8033 the ark H727 of God H430 was, and Samuel H8050 was laid H7901 down H7901 to sleep;

And he ran H7323 to Eli, H5941 and said, H559 Here H2005 am I; for you called H7121 me. And he said, H559 I called H7121 not; lie H7901 down H7901 again. H7725 And he went H3212 and lay H7901 down. H7901

Now Samuel H8050 did not yet H2962 know H3045 the LORD, H3068 neither was the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 yet H2962 revealed H1540 to him.

Therefore Eli H5941 said H559 to Samuel, H8050 Go, H3212 lie H7901 down: H7901 and it shall be, if H518 he call H7121 you, that you shall say, H559 Speak, H1696 LORD; H3068 for your servant H5650 hears. H8085 So Samuel H8050 went H3212 and lay H7901 down H7901 in his place. H4725

And the LORD H3068 said H559 to Samuel, H8050 Behold, H2009 I will do H6213 a thing H1697 in Israel, H3478 at which H834 both H8147 the ears H241 of every H3605 one that hears H8085 it shall tingle. H6750

Now Samuel H8050 was dead, H4191 and all H3605 Israel H3478 had lamented H5594 him, and buried H6912 him in Ramah, H7414 even in his own city. H5892 And Saul H7586 had put H5493 away H5493 those H1992 that had familiar spirits, H178 and the wizards, H3049 out of the land. H776

And when Saul H7586 saw H7200 the host H4264 of the Philistines, H6430 he was afraid, H3372 and his heart H3820 greatly H3966 trembled. H2729

Then said H559 Saul H7586 to his servants, H5650 Seek H1245 me a woman H802 that has H1172 a familiar spirit, H178 that I may go H3212 to her, and inquire H1875 of her. And his servants H5650 said H559 to him, Behold, H2009 there is a woman H802 that has H1172 a familiar spirit H178 at Endor. H5874

And the woman H802 said H559 to him, Behold, H2009 you know H3045 what H853 H834 Saul H7586 has done, H6213 how he has cut H3772 off those that have familiar spirits, H178 and the wizards, H3049 out of the land: H776 why H4100 then lay you a snare H5367 for my life, H5315 to cause me to die? H4191

Then said H559 the woman, H802 Whom H853 H4310 shall I bring H5927 up to you? And he said, H559 Bring H5927 me up Samuel. H8050

And the king H4428 said H559 to her, Be not afraid: H3372 for what H4100 saw H7200 you? And the woman H802 said H559 to Saul, H7586 I saw H7200 gods H430 ascending H5927 out of the earth. H776

And Samuel H8050 said H559 to Saul, H7586 Why H4100 have you disquieted H7264 me, to bring H5927 me up? And Saul H7586 answered, H6030 I am sore H3966 distressed; H6887 for the Philistines H6430 make war H3898 against me, and God H430 is departed H5493 from me, and answers H6030 me no H3808 more, neither H1571 by prophets, H5030 nor H1571 by dreams: H2472 therefore I have called H7121 you, that you may make known H3045 to me what H4100 I shall do. H6213

And the LORD H3068 has done H6213 to him, as he spoke H1696 by me: for the LORD H3068 has rent H7167 the kingdom H4467 out of your hand, H3027 and given H5414 it to your neighbor, H7453 even to David: H1732

Moreover H1571 the LORD H3068 will also H1571 deliver H5414 Israel H3478 with you into the hand H3027 of the Philistines: H6430 and to morrow H4279 shall you and your sons H1121 be with me: the LORD H3068 also H1571 shall deliver H5414 the host H4264 of Israel H3478 into the hand H3027 of the Philistines. H6430

And the woman H802 came H935 to Saul, H7586 and saw H7200 that he was sore H3966 troubled, H926 and said H559 to him, Behold, H2009 your handmaid H8198 has obeyed H8085 your voice, H6963 and I have put H7760 my life H5315 in my hand, H3709 and have listened H8085 to your words H1697 which H834 you spoke H1696 to me.

But he refused, H3985 and said, H559 I will not eat. H398 But his servants, H5650 together with the woman, H802 compelled H6555 him; and he listened H8085 to their voice. H6963 So he arose H6965 from the earth, H776 and sat H3427 on the bed. H4296

And she brought H5066 it before H6440 Saul, H7586 and before H6440 his servants; H5650 and they did eat. H398 Then they rose H6965 up, and went H3212 away that night. H3915

Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 among his priests, H3548 and Samuel H8050 among them that call H7121 on his name; H8034 they called H7121 on the LORD, H3068 and he answered H6030 them.

Then said H559 the LORD H3068 to me, Though H518 Moses H4872 and Samuel H8050 stood H5975 before H6440 me, yet my mind H5315 could not be toward H413 this H2088 people: H5971 cast H7971 them out of my sight, H6440 and let them go H3318 forth. H3318

Yes, G1161 and all G3956 the prophets G4396 from Samuel G4545 and those G3588 that follow G2517 after, G2517 as many G3745 as have spoken, G2980 have likewise G2532 foretold G4293 of these G5025 days. G2250

And after G3326 that he gave G1325 to them judges G2923 about G5613 the space of four G5071 hundred G5071 and fifty G4004 years, G2094 until G2193 Samuel G4545 the prophet. G4396

Rejoice, G5463 and be exceeding glad: G21 for great G4183 is your G5216 reward G3408 in heaven: G3772 for so G3779 persecuted G1377 they the prophets G4396 which G3588 were before G4253 you.

There G1563 shall be weeping G2805 and gnashing G1030 of teeth, G3599 when G3752 you shall see G3700 Abraham, G11 and Isaac, G2464 and Jacob, G2384 and all G3956 the prophets, G4396 in the kingdom G932 of God, G2316 and you yourselves thrust G1544 out.

And he said G2036 to him, If G1487 they hear G191 not Moses G3475 and the prophets, G4396 neither G3761 will they be persuaded, G3982 though G1437 one G5100 rose G450 from the dead. G3498

To him give all G3956 the prophets G4396 witness, G3140 that through G1223 his name G3686 whoever G3956 G3588 believes G4100 in him shall receive G2983 remission G859 of sins. G266

Take, G2983 my brothers, G80 the prophets, G4396 who G3739 have spoken G2980 in the name G3686 of the Lord, G2962 for an example G5262 of suffering G2552 affliction, G2552 and of patience. G3115

Of which G3739 salvation G4991 the prophets G4396 have inquired G1567 and searched G1830 diligently, who G3588 prophesied G4395 of the grace G5485 that should come to you:

To whom G3739 it was revealed, G601 that not to themselves, G1438 but to us they did minister G1247 the things, G846 which G3739 are now G3568 reported G312 to you by them that have preached G2097 the gospel G2097 to you with the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 sent G649 down from heaven; G3772 which G3739 things the angels G32 desire G1937 to look G3879 into. G1519

For the prophecy G4394 came G5342 not in old G4218 time G4218 by the will G2307 of man: G444 but holy G40 men G444 of God G2316 spoke G2980 as they were moved G5342 by the Holy G40 Ghost. G4151

That you may be mindful G3403 of the words G4487 which were spoken G4280 before G4280 by the holy G40 prophets, G4396 and of the commandment G1785 of us the apostles G652 of the Lord G2962 and Savior: G4990
