Now these H428 were the sons H1121 of David, H1732 which H834 were born H3205 to him in Hebron; H2275 the firstborn H1060 Amnon, H550 of Ahinoam H293 the Jezreelitess; H3159 the second H8145 Daniel, H1840 of Abigail H26 the Carmelitess: H3762

The fifth, H2549 Shephatiah H8203 of Abital: H37 the sixth, H8345 Ithream H3507 by Eglah H5698 his wife. H802

Neither H3808 shall he multiply H7235 wives H802 to himself, that his heart H3824 turn H5493 not away: neither H3808 shall he greatly H3966 multiply H7235 to himself silver H3701 and gold. H2091

And David H1732 took H3947 him more H5750 concubines H6370 and wives H802 out of Jerusalem, H3389 after H310 he was come H935 from Hebron: H2275 and there were yet H5750 sons H1121 and daughters H1323 born H3205 to David. H1732

And he had H1961 seven H7651 hundred H3967 wives, H802 princesses, H8282 and three H7969 hundred H3967 concubines: H6370 and his wives H802 turned H5186 away his heart. H3820

Let your fountain H4726 be blessed: H1288 and rejoice H8055 with the wife H802 of your youth. H5271

Let her be as the loving H158 hind H365 and pleasant H2580 roe; H3280 let her breasts H1717 satisfy H7301 you at all H3605 times; H6256 and be you ravished H7686 always H8548 with her love. H160

And I find H4672 more bitter H4751 than death H4194 the woman, H802 whose H834 H1931 heart H3820 is snares H4685 and nets, H2764 and her hands H3027 as bands: H612 whoever pleases H2896 H6440 God H430 shall escape H4422 from her; but the sinner H2398 shall be taken H3920 by her.

Which H834 yet H5750 my soul H5315 seeks, H1245 but I find H4672 not: one H259 man H120 among a thousand H505 have I found; H4672 but a woman H802 among all H3605 those H428 have I not found. H4672

Live H2416 joyfully H2416 with the wife H802 whom H834 you love H157 all H3605 the days H3117 of the life H2416 of your vanity, H1892 which H834 he has given H5414 you under H8478 the sun, H8121 all H3605 the days H3117 of your vanity: H1892 for that is your portion H2506 in this H2088 life, H2416 and in your labor H5999 which you take H6001 under H8478 the sun. H8121

Yet you say, H559 Why? H5921 Because H5921 H3588 the LORD H3068 has been witness H5749 between H996 you and the wife H802 of your youth, H5271 against whom H834 you have dealt treacherously: H898 yet is she your companion, H2278 and the wife H802 of your covenant. H1285

And he answered G611 and said G2036 to them, Have you not read, G314 that he which G3588 made G4160 them at G575 the beginning G746 made G4160 them male G730 and female, G2338

And said, G2036 For this G5127 cause G1752 shall a man G444 leave G2641 father G3962 and mother, G3384 and shall join G4347 to his wife: G1135 and they two G1417 shall be one G3391 flesh? G4561

He said G3004 to them, Moses G3475 because G4314 of the hardness G4641 of your G5216 hearts G4641 suffered G2010 you to put G630 away G630 your G5216 wives: G1135 but from the beginning G746 it was not so. G3779
