For it was so, when Jezebel H348 cut H3772 off the prophets H5030 of the LORD, H3068 that Obadiah H5662 took H3947 an hundred H3967 prophets, H5030 and hid H2244 them by fifty H2572 in a cave, H4631 and fed H3557 them with bread H3899 and water. H4325 )

And he said, H559 I have been very jealous H7065 for the LORD H3068 God H430 of hosts: H6635 for the children H1121 of Israel H3478 have forsaken H5800 your covenant, H1285 thrown H2040 down H2040 your altars, H4196 and slain H2026 your prophets H5030 with the sword; H2719 and I, even I only, H905 am left; H3498 and they seek H1245 my life, H5315 to take H3947 it away.

And he said, H559 I have been very jealous H7065 for the LORD H3068 God H430 of hosts: H6635 because H3588 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 have forsaken H5800 your covenant, H1285 thrown H2040 down H2040 your altars, H4196 and slain H2026 your prophets H5030 with the sword; H2719 and I, even I only, H905 am left; H3498 and they seek H1245 my life, H5315 to take H3947 it away.

And he hurried, H4116 and took the ashes H665 away H5493 from his face; H5869 and the king H4428 of Israel H3478 discerned H5234 him that he was of the prophets. H5030

And he said H559 to him, Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD, H3068 Because H3282 you have let go H7971 out of your hand H3027 a man H376 whom I appointed H2764 to utter destruction, H2764 therefore your life H5315 shall go H1961 for his life, H5315 and your people H5971 for his people. H5971

And say, H559 Thus H3541 said H559 the king, H4428 Put H7760 this H2088 fellow in the prison, H1004 H3608 and feed H398 him with bread H3899 of affliction H3905 and with water H4325 of affliction, H3905 until H5704 I come H935 in peace. H7965

And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 went H3212 to his house H1004 heavy H5620 and displeased, H2198 and came H935 to Samaria. H8111

And Ahab H256 said H559 to Elijah, H452 Have you found H4672 me, O my enemy? H341 And he answered, H559 I have found H4672 you: because H3282 you have sold H4376 yourself to work H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD. H3068

And his brothers H251 said H559 to him, Shall you indeed reign H4427 over H5921 us? or shall you indeed have dominion H4910 over us? And they hated H8130 him yet H5750 the more H3254 for his dreams, H2472 and for his words. H1697

But they mocked H3931 the messengers H4397 of God, H430 and despised H959 his words, H1697 and misused H8591 his prophets, H5030 until H5704 the wrath H2534 of the LORD H3068 arose H5927 against his people, H5971 till H5704 there was no H369 remedy. H4832

Evil H7451 shall slay H4191 the wicked: H7563 and they that hate H8130 the righteous H6662 shall be desolate. H816

Reprove H3198 not a scorner, H3887 lest H6435 he hate H8130 you: rebuke H3198 a wise H2450 man, and he will love H157 you.

A scorner H3887 loves H157 not one that reproves H3198 him: neither H3808 will he go H3212 to the wise. H2450

Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD, H3068 the Redeemer H1350 of Israel, H3478 and his Holy H6918 One, to him whom man H5315 despises, H960 to him whom the nation H1471 abhors, H8581 to a servant H5650 of rulers, H4910 Kings H4428 shall see H7200 and arise, H6965 princes H8269 also shall worship, H7812 because H4616 of the LORD H3068 that is faithful, H539 and the Holy H6918 One of Israel, H3478 and he shall choose H977 you.

Then said H559 they, Come H3212 and let us devise H2803 devices H4284 against H5921 Jeremiah; H3414 for the law H8451 shall not perish H6 from the priest, H3548 nor counsel H6098 from the wise, H2450 nor the word H1697 from the prophet. H5030 Come, H3212 and let us smite H5221 him with the tongue, H3956 and let us not give heed H7181 to any H3605 of his words. H1697

For I heard H8085 the defaming H1681 of many, H7227 fear H4032 on every H5437 side. H5439 Report, H5046 say they, and we will report H5046 it. All H3605 my familiars H7965 watched H8104 for my halting, H6761 saying, Peradventure H194 he will be enticed, H6601 and we shall prevail H3201 against him, and we shall take H3947 our revenge H5360 on him.

But Baruch H1263 the son H1121 of Neriah H5374 sets H5496 you on against us, for to deliver H5414 us into the hand H3027 of the Chaldeans, H3778 that they might put us to death, H4191 and carry H1540 us away captives H1540 into Babylon. H894

So Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces, H2428 and all H3605 the people, H5971 obeyed H8085 not the voice H6963 of the LORD, H3068 to dwell H3427 in the land H776 of Judah. H3063

They hate H8130 him that rebukes H3198 in the gate, H8179 and they abhor H8581 him that speaks H1696 uprightly. H8549

Three H7969 shepherds H7462 also I cut H3582 off in one H259 month; H3391 and my soul H5315 loathed H7114 them, and their soul H5315 also H1571 abhorred H973 me.

And you shall be hated G3404 of all G3956 men for my name's G3686 sake: but he that endures G5278 to the end G5056 shall be saved. G4982

And this G3778 is the condemnation, G2920 that light G5457 is come G2064 into G1519 the world, G2889 and men G444 loved G25 darkness G4655 rather G3123 than G2228 light, G5457 because G1063 their deeds G2041 were evil. G4190

But he that does G4160 truth G225 comes G2064 to the light, G5457 that his deeds G2041 may be made G5319 manifest, G5319 that they are worked G2038 in God. G2316

The world G2889 cannot G3756 G1410 hate G3404 you; but me it hates, G3404 because G3754 I testify G3140 of it, that the works G2041 thereof G3012 G846 are evil. G4190

If G1487 the world G2889 hate G3404 you, you know G1097 that it hated G3404 me before G4412 it hated you.

If G1487 you were of the world, G2889 the world G2889 would love G5368 his own: G2398 but because G3754 you are not of the world, G2889 but I have chosen G1586 you out of the world, G2889 therefore G1223 G5124 the world G2889 hates G3404 you.

I have given G1325 them your word; G3056 and the world G2889 has hated G3404 them, because G3754 they are not of the world, G2889 even G2531 as I am G1510 not of the world. G2889

Am I therefore G5620 become G1096 your G5216 enemy, G2190 because I tell G226 you the truth? G226

And when G3752 they shall have finished G5055 their testimony, G3141 the beast G2342 that ascends G305 out of the bottomless G12 pit shall make G4160 war G4171 against G3326 them, and shall overcome G3528 them, and kill G615 them.

And they of the people G2992 and kindreds G5443 and tongues G1100 and nations G1484 shall see G991 their dead G4430 bodies G4430 three G5140 days G2250 and an half, G2255 and shall not suffer G863 their dead G4430 bodies G4430 to be put G5087 in graves. G3418

And the messenger H4397 that was gone H1980 to call H7121 Micaiah H4321 spoke H1696 to him, saying, H559 Behold H2009 now, H4994 the words H1697 of the prophets H5030 declare good H2896 to the king H4428 with one H259 mouth: H6310 let your word, H1697 I pray H4994 you, be like the word H1697 of one H259 of them, and speak H1696 that which is good. H2896

Which H834 say H559 to the seers, H7200 See H7200 not; and to the prophets, H2374 Prophesy H2372 not to us right H5229 things, speak H1696 to us smooth H2513 things, prophesy H2372 deceits: H4123

Therefore the princes H8269 said H559 to the king, H4428 We beseech H4994 you, let this H2088 man H376 be put to death: H4191 for thus H5921 H3651 he weakens H7503 the hands H3027 of the men H582 of war H4421 that remain H7604 in this H2063 city, H5892 and the hands H3027 of all H3605 the people, H5971 in speaking H1696 such H428 words H1697 to them: for this H2088 man H376 seeks H1875 not the welfare H7965 of this H2088 people, H5971 but the hurt. H7451

If H3863 a man H376 walking H1980 in the spirit H7307 and falsehood H8267 do lie, H3576 saying, I will prophesy H5197 to you of wine H3196 and of strong H7941 drink; H7941 he shall even be the prophet H5197 of this H2088 people. H5971

And a certain H259 man H376 of the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 said H559 to his neighbor H7453 in the word H1697 of the LORD, H3068 Smite H5221 me, I pray H4994 you. And the man H376 refused H3985 to smite H5221 him.

Then he found H4672 another H312 man, H376 and said, H559 Smite H5221 me, I pray H4994 you. And the man H376 smote H5221 him, so that in smiting H5221 he wounded H6481 him.

And as the king H4428 passed H5674 by, he cried H6817 to the king: H4428 and he said, H559 Your servant H5650 went H3318 out into the middle H7130 of the battle; H4421 and, behold, H2009 a man H376 turned H5493 aside, and brought H935 a man H376 to me, and said, H559 Keep H8104 this H2088 man: H376 if H518 by any means he be missing, H6485 then shall your life H5315 be for his life, H5315 or H176 else you shall pay H8254 a talent H3603 of silver. H3701

And he hurried, H4116 and took the ashes H665 away H5493 from his face; H5869 and the king H4428 of Israel H3478 discerned H5234 him that he was of the prophets. H5030

And it came H1961 to pass, when Joram H3088 saw H7200 Jehu, H3058 that he said, H559 Is it peace, H7965 Jehu? H3058 And he answered, H559 What H4100 peace, H7965 so long H5704 as the prostitutions H2183 of your mother H517 Jezebel H348 and her witchcrafts H3785 are so many? H7227

Woe H188 to the wicked! H7563 it shall be ill H7451 with him: for the reward H1576 of his hands H3027 shall be given H6213 him.

I create H1254 the fruit H5108 of the lips; H8193 Peace, H7965 peace H7965 to him that is far H7350 off, and to him that is near, H7138 said H559 the LORD; H3068 and I will heal H7495 him.

There is no H369 peace, H7965 said H559 my God, H430 to the wicked. H7563

And it came H1961 to pass, when Ahab H256 heard H8085 those H428 words, H1697 that he rent H7167 his clothes, H899 and put H7760 sackcloth H8242 on his flesh, H1320 and fasted, H6684 and lay H7901 in sackcloth, H8242 and went H1980 softly. H328

See H7200 you how H3588 Ahab H256 humbles H3665 himself before H6440 me? because H3282 H3588 he humbles H3665 himself before H6440 me, I will not bring H935 the evil H7451 in his days: H3117 but in his son's H1121 days H3117 will I bring H935 the evil H7451 on his house. H1004

And say, H559 How H349 have I hated H8130 instruction, H4148 and my heart H3820 despised H5006 reproof; H8433

I was almost H4592 in all H3605 evil H7451 in the middle H8432 of the congregation H6951 and assembly. H5712

O you that are named H559 the house H1004 of Jacob, H3290 is the spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 straitened? H7114 are these H428 his doings? H4611 do not my words H1697 do good H3190 to him that walks H1980 uprightly? H3477
