1SA_14:52 And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul: and when Saul saw any strong man, or any valiant man, he took him unto him.
1SA_15:1 Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee [to be] king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.
1SA_15:2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember [that] which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid [wait] for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
1SA_15:3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
1SA_15:4 And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.
1SA_15:5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.
1SA_15:6 And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye showed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
1SA_15:7 And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah [until] thou comest to Shur, that [is] over against Egypt.
1SA_15:8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
1SA_15:9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all [that was] good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing [that was] vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
1SA_15:10 Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,
1SA_15:11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul [to be] king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.
1SA_15:12 And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.
1SA_15:13 And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed [be] thou of the LORD: I have performed the commandment of the LORD.
1SA_15:14 And Samuel said, What [meaneth] then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?
1SA_15:15 And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.
1SA_15:16 Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the LORD hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.
1SA_15:17 And Samuel said, When thou [wast] little in thine own sight, [wast] thou not [made] the head of the tribes of Israel, and the LORD anointed thee king over Israel?
1SA_15:18 And the LORD sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.
1SA_15:19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the LORD?
1SA_15:20 And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
1SA_15:21 But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God in Gilgal.
1SA_15:22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD [as great] delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey [is] better than sacrifice, [and] to hearken than the fat of rams.
1SA_15:23 For rebellion [is as] the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness [is as] iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from [being] king.
1SA_15:24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.
1SA_15:25 Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD.
1SA_15:26 And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
1SA_15:27 And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.
1SA_15:28 And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, [that is] better than thou.
1SA_15:29 And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he [is] not a man, that he should repent.
1SA_15:30 Then he said, I have sinned: [yet] honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God.
1SA_15:31 So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the LORD.
1SA_15:32 Then said Samuel, Bring ye hither to me Agag the king of the Amalekites. And Agag came unto him delicately. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.
1SA_15:33 And Samuel said, As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.
1SA_15:34 Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
1SA_15:35 And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
1SA_16:1 And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.
1SA_16:2 And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear [it], he will kill me. And the LORD said, Take an heifer with thee, and say, I am come to sacrifice to the LORD.
1SA_16:3 And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show thee what thou shalt do: and thou shalt anoint unto me [him] whom I name unto thee.
1SA_16:4 And Samuel did that which the LORD spake, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, Comest thou peaceably?
1SA_16:5 And he said, Peaceably: I am come to sacrifice unto the LORD: sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.
1SA_16:6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD's anointed [is] before him.
1SA_16:7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.
1SA_16:8 Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.
1SA_16:9 Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.
1SA_16:10 Again, Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said unto Jesse, The LORD hath not chosen these.
1SA_16:11 And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all [thy] children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.
1SA_16:12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he [was] ruddy, [and] withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this [is] he.
1SA_16:13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.
1SA_16:14 But the spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him.
1SA_16:15 And Saul's servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.
1SA_16:16 Let our lord now command thy servants, [which are] before thee, to seek out a man, [who is] a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.
1SA_16:17 And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring [him] to me.
JOH_2:7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
JOH_2:8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare [it].
JOH_2:9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
JOH_2:10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: [but] thou hast kept the good wine until now.
JOH_2:11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
JOH_2:12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.
JOH_2:13 And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
JOH_2:14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:
JOH_2:15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;
JOH_2:16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.
JOH_2:17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.
JOH_2:18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
JOH_2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
JOH_2:20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
JOH_2:21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
JOH_2:22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
JOH_2:23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast [day], many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.
JOH_2:24 But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all [men],
JOH_2:25 And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.
JOH_3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
JOH_3:2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
JOH_3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
PSA_59:17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God [is] my defence, [and] the God of my mercy.
PSA_60:1 To the chief Musician upon Shushaneduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aramnaharaim and with Aramzobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
PSA_60:2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
PSA_60:3 Thou hast showed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
PSA_60:4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
PRO_13:8 The ransom of a man's life [are] his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke.
PRO_13:9 The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
PRO_13:10 Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised [is] wisdom.
MARJ_8:19 When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up?
MARJ_8:20 And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up?
MARJ_8:21 How is it that ye do not understand?
MARJ_8:26 Neither go into the town, nor tell [it] to any in the town.
MARJ_8:27 Whom do men say that I am?
MARJ_8:29 But whom say ye that I am?
MARJ_8:33 Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
MARJ_8:34 Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
