The Garden of Eden: Ge
2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man
whom he had formed.
Ge 2:9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant
to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden,
and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Ge 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was
parted, and became into four heads.
Ge 2:11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land
of Havilah, where there is gold;
Ge 2:12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
Ge 2:13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth
the whole land of Ethiopia.
Ge 2:14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward
the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
Ge 2:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress
it and to keep it.
Ge 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou
mayest freely eat:
Ge 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of
it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Ge 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will
make him an help meet for him.
Ge 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every
fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever
Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
Ge 2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every
beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
Ge 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and
he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
Ge 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and
brought her unto the man.
Ge 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall
be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
Ge 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto
his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Ge 2:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Ge 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD
God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of
every tree of the garden?
Ge 3:2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees
of the garden:
Ge 3:3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath
said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
Ge 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
Ge 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be
opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Ge 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant
to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof,
and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Ge 3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked;
and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
Ge 3:8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool
of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God
amongst the trees of the garden.
Ge 3:9 And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
Ge 3:10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I
was naked; and I hid myself.
Ge 3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree,
whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
Ge 3:12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of
the tree, and I did eat.
Ge 3:13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And
the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
Ge 3:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou
art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt
thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
Ge 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and
her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Ge 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception;
in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband,
and he shall rule over thee.
Ge 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy
wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not
eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life;
Ge 3:18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat
the herb of the field;
Ge 3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the
ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou
return.
Ge 3:20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
Ge 3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and
clothed them.
Ge 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good
and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life,
and eat, and live for ever:
Ge 3:23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the
ground from whence he was taken.
Ge 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden
Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree
of life.

of Wisdom: Jas 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom,
let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it
shall be given him.
Jas 1:6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like
a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
Jas 1:7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
The Gift of God:
Ro 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but
the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Giving: Lu 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed
down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For
with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
God Being for
UsRo 8:31 What shall we then say to these things?

Ro 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall
he not with him also freely give us all things?

behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand,
and when ye turn to the left.
God's Kindness:
Isa 54:8 In a little wrath I hid my face from
thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith
the LORD thy Redeemer.
Isa 54:9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the
waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not
be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
Isa 54:10 For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness
shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith
the LORD that hath mercy on thee.
God's Love: Joh 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness,
even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever

world through him might be saved.

not; I will help thee.
God's Sound FX:
2Ki 7:5 And they rose up in the twilight, to
go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of
the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there.
2Ki 7:6 For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots,
and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another,
Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings
of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
2Ki 7:7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and
their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.

are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Isa 55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than
your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isa 55:10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not
thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give
seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
Isa 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return
unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in
the thing whereto I sent it.
Isa 55:12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains
and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the
field shall clap their hands.
Isa 55:13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier
shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting

The Golden Calf:
Ex 32:1 And when the people saw that Moses
delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto
Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for
this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what
is become of him.
Ex 32:2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the
ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
Ex 32:3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears,
and brought them unto Aaron.
Ex 32:4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool,
after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which
brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
Ex 32:5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation,
and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
Ex 32:6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought
peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
Ex 32:7 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou
broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:
Ex 32:8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they
have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto,
and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land
of Egypt.
Ex 32:9 And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is
a stiffnecked people:
Ex 32:10 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and
that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.
Ex 32:11 And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath
wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt
with great power, and with a mighty hand?
Ex 32:12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring
them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the
earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.
Ex 32:13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest
by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of
heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they
shall inherit it for ever.
Ex 32:14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
Ex 32:15 And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the
testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one
side and on the other were they written.
Ex 32:16 And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of
God, graven upon the tables.
Ex 32:17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto
Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
Ex 32:18 And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither
is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing
do I hear.
Ex 32:19 And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw
the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out
of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.
Ex 32:20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and
ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel
drink of it.
Ex 32:21 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast
brought so great a sin upon them?
Ex 32:22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people,
that they are set on mischief.
Ex 32:23 For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for
this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what
is become of him.
Ex 32:24 And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So
they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
Ex 32:25 And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them
naked unto their shame among their enemies:)
Ex 32:26 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD'S
side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together
unto him.
Ex 32:27 And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man
his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and
slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
Ex 32:28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell
of the people that day about three thousand men.
Ex 32:29 For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the LORD, even every
man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this
day.
Ex 32:30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have
sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make
an atonement for your sin.
Ex 32:31 And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned
a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
Ex 32:32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee,
out of thy book which thou hast written.
Ex 32:33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will
I blot out of my book.
Ex 32:34 Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken
unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when
I visit I will visit their sin upon them.
Ex 32:35 And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron
made.
The Good Man: Ps 112:1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth
the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
Ps 112:2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall
be blessed.
Ps 112:3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth
for ever.
Ps 112:4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and
full of compassion, and righteous.
Ps 112:5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
Ps 112:6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting
remembrance.
Ps 112:7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in
the LORD.
Ps 112:8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire
upon his enemies.
Ps 112:9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth
for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
The Good Shepherd:
Joh 10:14 I am the good shepherd, and know
my sheep, and am known of mine.
Joh 10:15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my
life for the sheep.
Joh 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring,
and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
Joh 10:17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might
take it again.
Joh 10:18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to
lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received
of my Father.
Joh 10:19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
Joh 10:20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
Joh 10:21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil
open the eyes of the blind?
Joh 10:22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
Joh 10:23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
Joh 10:24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou
make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
Joh 10:25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I
do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.
Joh 10:26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
Joh 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither
shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
Joh 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able
to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one.
The Good Samaritan:
Lu 10:29 But he, willing to justify himself,
said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
Lu 10:30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho,
and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed,
leaving him half dead.
Lu 10:31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw
him, he passed by on the other side.
Lu 10:32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him,
and passed by on the other side.
Lu 10:33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he
saw him, he had compassion on him,
Lu 10:34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set
him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
Lu 10:35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them
to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more,
when I come again, I will repay thee.
Lu 10:36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell
among the thieves?
Lu 10:37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go,
and do thou likewise.
The Grace of
God: Tit 1:11 Whose mouths must be stopped,
who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's
sake.
Tit 1:12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway
liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
Tit 1:13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound
in the faith;
Tit 1:14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from
the truth.
The Great
Commission: Mt 28:18 And Jesus came and spake
unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Mt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Mt 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and,
lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
The
Great Draught of Fish: Lu 5:1 And it came to
pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the
lake of Gennesaret,
Lu 5:2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of
them, and were washing their nets.
Lu 5:3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that
he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people
out of the ship.
Lu 5:4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep,
and let down your nets for a draught.
Lu 5:5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and
have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.
Lu 5:6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and
their net brake.
Lu 5:7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that
they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that
they began to sink.
Lu 5:8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from
me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
Lu 5:9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes
which they had taken:
Lu 5:10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners
with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch
men.
Lu 5:11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed
him.
The Great Flood:
Ge 6:1 And it came to pass, when men began
to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
Ge 6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they
took them wives of all which they chose.
Ge 6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he
also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
Ge 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the
sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the
same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
Ge 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every
imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Ge 6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved
him at his heart.
Ge 6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of
the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air;
for it repenteth me that I have made them.
Ge 6:8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
Ge 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his
generations, and Noah walked with God.
Ge 6:10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Ge 6:11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
Ge 6:12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh
had corrupted his way upon the earth.
Ge 6:13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth
is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
Ge 6:14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt
pitch it within and without with pitch.
Ge 6:15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark
shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of
it thirty cubits.
Ge 6:16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it
above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second,
and third stories shalt thou make it.
Ge 6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy
all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that
is in the earth shall die.
Ge 6:18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the
ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
Ge 6:19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring
into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.
Ge 6:20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping
thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep
them alive.
Ge 6:21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather
it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.
Ge 6:22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
Ge 7:1 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for
thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
Ge 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female:
and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
Ge 7:3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed
alive upon the face of all the earth.
Ge 7:4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days
and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from
off the face of the earth.
Ge 7:5 And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.
Ge 7:6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
Ge 7:7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him,
into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
Ge 7:8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every
thing that creepeth upon the earth,
Ge 7:9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female,
as God had commanded Noah.
Ge 7:10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon
the earth.
Ge 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth
day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up,
and the windows of heaven were opened.
Ge 7:12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
Ge 7:13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons
of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
Ge 7:14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind,
and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl
after his kind, every bird of every sort.
Ge 7:15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein
is the breath of life.
Ge 7:16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded
him: and the LORD shut him in.
Ge 7:17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and
bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.
Ge 7:18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and
the ark went upon the face of the waters.
Ge 7:19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills,
that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
Ge 7:20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
Ge 7:21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle,
and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every
man:
Ge 7:22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry
land, died.
Ge 7:23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground,
both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they
were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with
him in the ark.
Ge 7:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
Ge 8:1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was
with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
Ge 8:2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and
the rain from heaven was restrained;
Ge 8:3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end
of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.
Ge 8:4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month,
upon the mountains of Ararat.
Ge 8:5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month,
on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
Ge 8:6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window
of the ark which he had made:
Ge 8:7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were
dried up from off the earth.
Ge 8:8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from
off the face of the ground;
Ge 8:9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto
him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put
forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
Ge 8:10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out
of the ark;
Ge 8:11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an
olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
Ge 8:12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned
not again unto him any more.
Ge 8:13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month,
the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah
removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground
was dry.
Ge 8:14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was
the earth dried.
Ge 8:15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,
Ge 8:16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives
with thee.
Ge 8:17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh,
both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth;
that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the
earth.
Ge 8:18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with
him:
Ge 8:19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth
upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
Ge 8:20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and
of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
Ge 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will
not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's
heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living,
as I have done.
Ge 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer
and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
Ge 9:1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply,
and replenish the earth.
Ge 9:2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the
earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon
all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
Ge 9:3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb
have I given you all things.
Ge 9:4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not
eat.
Ge 9:5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast
will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will
I require the life of man.
Ge 9:6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image
of God made he man.
Ge 9:7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth,
and multiply therein.
Ge 9:8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
Ge 9:9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after
you;
Ge 9:10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle,
and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every
beast of the earth.
Ge 9:11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut
off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to
destroy the earth.
Ge 9:12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and
you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
Ge 9:13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between
me and the earth.
Ge 9:14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the
bow shall be seen in the cloud:
Ge 9:15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living
creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all
flesh.
Ge 9:16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember
the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that
is upon the earth.
Ge 9:17 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established
between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
Greater Works:
Joh 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He
that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than
these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Joh 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father
may be glorified in the Son.
Joh 14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
The
Greatness of God's Power: Eph 1:15 Wherefore
I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
Eph 1:16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
Eph 1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto
you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
Eph 1:18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what
is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in
the saints,
Eph 1:19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe,
according to the working of his mighty power,
Eph 1:20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him
at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
Eph 1:21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every
name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
Eph 1:22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over
all things to the church,
Eph 1:23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
Half an Hour in Heaven: Re
8:1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the
space of half an hour.
The
Healing of a Blind Man: Mr 10:46 And they came
to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of
people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
Mr 10:47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and
say, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
Mr 10:48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more
a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
Mr 10:49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the
blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
Mr 10:50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
Mr 10:51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto
thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
Mr 10:52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And
immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
The
Healing of a Cripple: Ac 3:1 Now Peter and
John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
Ac 3:2 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid
daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that
entered into the temple;
Ac 3:3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
Ac 3:4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
Ac 3:5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
Ac 3:6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee:
In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Ac 3:7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his
feet and ankle bones received strength.
Ac 3:8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple,
walking, and leaping, and praising God.
Ac 3:9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God:
Ac 3:10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of
the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened
unto him.
Ac 3:11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people
ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.
Ac 3:12 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why
marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power
or holiness we had made this man to walk?
Ac 3:13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath
glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of
Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
Ac 3:14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted
unto you;
Ac 3:15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof
we are witnesses.
Ac 3:16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye
see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness
in the presence of you all.
Ac 3:17 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your
rulers.
Ac 3:18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets,
that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
Ac 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out,
when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
Ac 3:20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
Ac 3:21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things,
which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.
Ac 3:22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God
raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things
whatsoever he shall say unto you.
Ac 3:23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet,
shall be destroyed from among the people.
Ac 3:24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many
as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
Ac 3:25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with
our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth
be blessed.
Ac 3:26 Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you,
in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
Ac 4:1 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple,
and the Sadducees, came upon them,
Ac 4:2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the
resurrection from the dead.
Ac 4:3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it
was now eventide.
Ac 4:4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the
men was about five thousand.
Ac 4:5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,
Ac 4:6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many
as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.
Ac 4:7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by
what name, have ye done this?
Ac 4:8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people,
and elders of Israel,
Ac 4:9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what
means he is made whole;
Ac 4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name
of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even
by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
Ac 4:11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become
the head of the corner.
Ac 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under
heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Ac 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they
were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them,
that they had been with Jesus.
Ac 4:14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say
nothing against it.
Ac 4:15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred
among themselves,
Ac 4:16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle
hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot
deny it.
Ac 4:17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten
them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
Ac 4:18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in
the name of Jesus.
Ac 4:19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the
sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
Ac 4:20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
Ac 4:21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing
how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for
that which was done.
Ac 4:22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was
shewed.
Heavenly Mansions:
Joh 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye
believe in God, believe also in me.
Joh 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have
told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Joh 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive
you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
The Heroes
of Faith: Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance
of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Heb 11:2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God,
so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Heb 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by
which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and
by it he being dead yet speaketh.
Heb 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not
found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony,
that he pleased God.
Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to
God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek
him.
Heb 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with
fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world,
and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
Heb 11:8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should
after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he
went.
Heb 11:9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling
in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
Heb 11:10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker
is God.
Heb 11:11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and
was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who
had promised.
Heb 11:12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as
the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
Heb 11:13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen
them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that
they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
Heb 11:14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
Heb 11:15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came
out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
Heb 11:16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God
is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
Heb 11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had
received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
Heb 11:18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
Heb 11:19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from
whence also he received him in a figure.
Heb 11:20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
Heb 11:21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and
worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
Heb 11:22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children
of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
Heb 11:23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents,
because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.
Heb 11:24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son
of Pharaoh's daughter;
Heb 11:25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy
the pleasures of sin for a season;
Heb 11:26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt:
for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
Heb 11:27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured,
as seeing him who is invisible.
Heb 11:28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he
that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
Heb 11:29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians
assaying to do were drowned.
Heb 11:30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about
seven days.
Heb 11:31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when
she had received the spies with peace.
Heb 11:32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon,
and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the
prophets:
Heb 11:33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises,
stopped the mouths of lions,
Heb 11:34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness
were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
Heb 11:35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured,
not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
Heb 11:36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of
bonds and imprisonment:
Heb 11:37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with
the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted,
tormented;
Heb 11:38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains,
and in dens and caves of the earth.
Heb 11:39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not
the promise:
Heb 11:40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should
not be made perfect.
How Faith Comes:
Ro 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God.
Hundredfold
Return: Ge 26:11 And Abimelech charged all
his people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to
death.
Ge 26:12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold:
and the LORD blessed him.
Ge 26:13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very
great:
Ge 26:14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store
of servants: and the Philistines envied him.
Husbands'
Duty to Wives: Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your
wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Eph 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
Eph 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot,
or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Eph 5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his
wife loveth himself.
Eph 5:29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it,
even as the Lord the church:
Eph 5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
Eph 5:31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined
unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
Eph 5:32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
Eph 5:33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as
himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
Increase: Ps
115:14 The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
Ps 115:15 Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.
Increasing
in Strength: Isa 40:29 He giveth power to the
faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
Isa 40:30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly
fall:
Isa 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall
mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk,
and not faint.
Isaac and Rebekah:
Ge 24:1 And Abraham was old, and well stricken
in age: and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.
Ge 24:2 And Abraham said unto his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all
that he had, Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh:
Ge 24:3 And I will make thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven, and the God of
the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites,
among whom I dwell:
Ge 24:4 But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto
my son Isaac.
Ge 24:5 And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman will not be willing
to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring thy son again unto the land from
whence thou camest?
Ge 24:6 And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither
again.
Ge 24:7 The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father's house, and from the
land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto
thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt
take a wife unto my son from thence.
Ge 24:8 And if the woman will not be willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear
from this my oath: only bring not my son thither again.
Ge 24:9 And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware
to him concerning that matter.
Ge 24:10 And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed;
for all the goods of his master were in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia,
unto the city of Nahor.
Ge 24:11 And he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water
at the time of the evening, even the time that women go out to draw water.
Ge 24:12 And he said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good
speed this day, and shew kindness unto my master Abraham.
Ge 24:13 Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters of the men
of the city come out to draw water:
Ge 24:14 And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy
pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give
thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant
Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master.
Ge 24:15 And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah
came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother,
with her pitcher upon her shoulder.
Ge 24:16 And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man
known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
Ge 24:17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a
little water of thy pitcher.
Ge 24:18 And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon
her hand, and gave him drink.
Ge 24:19 And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for
thy camels also, until they have done drinking.
Ge 24:20 And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto
the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.
Ge 24:21 And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit whether the LORD had
made his journey prosperous or not.
Ge 24:22 And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took
a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten
shekels weight of gold;
Ge 24:23 And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee: is there room in
thy father's house for us to lodge in?
Ge 24:24 And she said unto him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which
she bare unto Nahor.
Ge 24:25 She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender enough, and
room to lodge in.
Ge 24:26 And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the LORD.
Ge 24:27 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not
left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the LORD
led me to the house of my master's brethren.
Ge 24:28 And the damsel ran, and told them of her mother's house these things.
Ge 24:29 And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban: and Laban ran out unto
the man, unto the well.
Ge 24:30 And it came to pass, when he saw the earring and bracelets upon his sister's
hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus spake the
man unto me; that he came unto the man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at the
well.
Ge 24:31 And he said, Come in, thou blessed of the LORD; wherefore standest thou
without? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.
Ge 24:32 And the man came into the house: and he ungirded his camels, and gave straw
and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the men's feet that
were with him.
Ge 24:33 And there was set meat before him to eat: but he said, I will not eat, until
I have told mine errand. And he said, Speak on.

he hath given him flocks, and herds, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants,
and camels, and asses.
Ge 24:36 And Sarah my master's wife bare a son to my master when she was old: and
unto him hath he given all that he hath.
Ge 24:37 And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife to my son
of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:
Ge 24:38 But thou shalt go unto my father's house, and to my kindred, and take a
wife unto my son.
Ge 24:39 And I said unto my master, Peradventure the woman will not follow me.
Ge 24:40 And he said unto me, The LORD, before whom I walk, will send his angel with
thee, and prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and
of my father's house:
Ge 24:41 Then shalt thou be clear from this my oath, when thou comest to my kindred;
and if they give not thee one, thou shalt be clear from my oath.
Ge 24:42 And I came this day unto the well, and said, O LORD God of my master Abraham,
if now thou do prosper my way which I go:
Ge 24:43 Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when
the virgin cometh forth to draw water, and I say to her, Give me, I pray thee, a
little water of thy pitcher to drink;
Ge 24:44 And she say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels:
let the same be the woman whom the LORD hath appointed out for my master's son.
Ge 24:45 And before I had done speaking in mine heart, behold, Rebekah came forth
with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew water:
and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee.
Ge 24:46 And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said,
Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: so I drank, and she made the camels
drink also.
Ge 24:47 And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter
of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the earring upon her
face, and the bracelets upon her hands.
Ge 24:48 And I bowed down my head, and worshipped the LORD, and blessed the LORD
God of my master Abraham, which had led me in the right way to take my master's brother's
daughter unto his son.
Ge 24:49 And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if
not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.
Ge 24:50 Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from the
LORD: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.
Ge 24:51 Behold, Rebekah is before thee, take her, and go, and let her be thy master's
son's wife, as the LORD hath spoken.

worshipped the LORD, bowing himself to the earth.

raiment, and gave them to Rebekah: he gave also to her brother and to her mother
precious things.

all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my master.

days, at the least ten; after that she shall go.

way; send me away that I may go to my master.
Ge 24:57 And they said, We will call the damsel, and enquire at her mouth.
Ge 24:58 And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man?
And she said, I will go.

and his men.

the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which
hate them.
