¹¹ And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And thou shalt speak and say before the LORD thy God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁶ The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow: for thus saith the LORD God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And Achan answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And what one nation in the earth is like thy people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thee from Egypt, from the nations and their gods?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ As the LORD thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And God was displeased displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his own people, to make thee a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ Is not the LORD your God with you? and hath he not given you rest on every side? for he hath given the inhabitants of the land into mine hand; and the land is subdued before the LORD, and before his people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ For David said, The LORD God of Israel hath given rest unto his people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you on this manner, neither yet believe him: for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of mine hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less shall your God deliver you out of mine hand?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Hath a nation changed their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ For thus saith the LORD God of Israel unto me; Take the wine cup of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ Therefore thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Drink ye, and be drunken, and spue, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Neither have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, yea, joy and gladness from the house of our God?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.
