7135 | RUT 1:6 | So she set out with her daughters-in-law to return from the land of Moab, for she had heard that the Lord had remembered his people and given them food. |
7137 | RUT 1:8 | Naomi said to her daughters-in-law, ‘Go, return both of you to the home of your mother. May the Lord be kind to you as you have been kind to the dead and to me. |
7143 | RUT 1:14 | Then they again wept aloud, and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law goodbye, but Ruth stayed with her. |
7144 | RUT 1:15 | ‘Look,’ said Naomi, ‘your sister-in-law is going back to her own people and to her own gods. Go along with her!’ |
7151 | RUT 1:22 | So Naomi and Ruth, her Moabite daughter-in-law, returned from Moab. They reached Bethlehem at the beginning of the barley harvest. |
7162 | RUT 2:11 | Boaz replied, ‘I have heard what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you left your father and mother and your native land to come to a people that you did not know before. |
7169 | RUT 2:18 | Then she took it up and went into the town and showed her mother-in-law what she had gleaned. She also brought out and gave her that which she had left from her meal after she had had enough. |
7170 | RUT 2:19 | ‘Where did you glean today, and where did you work?’ asked her mother-in-law. ‘A blessing on him who took notice of you!’ So she told her mother-in-law where she had worked. ‘The name of the man with whom I worked today,’ she said, ‘is Boaz.’ |
7171 | RUT 2:20 | Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, ‘May the blessing of the Lord rest on this man who has not ceased to show his loving-kindness to the living and to the dead. The man,’ she added, ‘is a near relation of ours.’ |
7174 | RUT 2:23 | So she gleaned with the girls of Boaz until the end of the barley and wheat harvest; but she lived with her mother-in-law. |
7177 | RUT 3:3 | Tonight he is going to winnow barley on the threshing-floor. So bathe and anoint yourself and put on your best clothes and go down to the threshing-floor. But do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking. |
7180 | RUT 3:6 | So she went down to the threshing-floor and did just as her mother-in-law told her. |
7188 | RUT 3:14 | So she lay at his feet until morning, but rose before anyone could recognise her, for Boaz said, ‘No one must know that a woman came to the threshing-floor.’ |
7190 | RUT 3:16 | When Ruth came to her mother-in-law, Naomi asked, ‘Is it you, my daughter?’ Then Ruth told Naomi all that the man had done for her. |
7191 | RUT 3:17 | ‘He gave me these six measures of barley,’ she said, ‘for he said I should not go to my mother-in-law empty-handed.’ |
7193 | RUT 4:1 | Then Boaz went up to the gate and sat down. Just then the near kinsman of whom Boaz had spoken came along. Boaz said, ‘Hello, So-and-so (calling him by name), come here and sit down.’ So he stopped and sat down. |
7207 | RUT 4:15 | This child will restore your vigor and nourish you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law who loves you, who is worth more to you than seven sons, has borne a son to Boaz!’ |
12707 | EST 1:1 | These events happened in the time of Ahasuerus, who ruled over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces from India to Ethiopia |
12712 | EST 1:6 | There were white and violet cotton curtains fastened to silver rings and pillars of marble with cords of fine purple wool and linen. The couches were of gold and silver placed upon a mosaic pavement of alabaster, white marble, mother-of-pearl, and dark stone. |
12770 | EST 4:4 | When Esther’s maids and attendants told her about Mordecai’s behaviour, she was greatly troubled. She sent garments for Mordecai to put on, so that he could take off his sack-cloth, but he would not accept them. |
12797 | EST 5:14 | Then Zeresh his wife and all his friends said to him, ‘Let a gallows seventy-five feet high be erected, and in the morning speak to the king and let Mordecai be hanged on it. Then go merrily with the king to the banquet.’ The advice pleased Haman, and so he had the gallows erected. |
12820 | EST 7:9 | and Harbonah, one of those who waited on the king, said, ‘There are the gallows, seventy-five feet high, which Hainan erected for Mordecai, who spoke a good word in behalf of the king, standing in the house of Haman!’ The king said ‘Hang him on them.’ |
12830 | EST 8:9 | On the twenty-third day of the third month (that is the month of Sivan), the king’s secretaries were summoned and as Mordecai instructed an edict was issued to the Jews, to the satraps and provincial governors and the rulers of each of the one hundred twenty-seven provinces from India to Ethiopia in their own script and their own language, and to the Jews in their own script and language. |
12854 | EST 9:16 | And the other Jews who were in the king’s provinces gathered themselves together and fought for their lives and overcame their enemies. They killed seventy-five thousand who hated them. But they did not take any plunder. |
12868 | EST 9:30 | He sent letters to all the Jews, to the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, wishing them peace and security, |

14555 | PSA 40:7 | In offerings bloody or bloodless you have no delight, but with open ears you have made me. Burnt-offering and offering for sin are not what you ask. |

14705 | PSA 50:5 | Gather to him his saints by covenant-sacrifice bound to him; |
14708 | PSA 50:8 | Not for your sacrifices will I reprove you your burnt-offerings are ever before me |
14714 | PSA 50:14 | Offer to God a thank-offering, pay the Most High your vows. |
14723 | PSA 50:23 | Those who bring a thank-offering honour me; but to those: who follows my way, I will show the salvation of God.’ |

22169 | HOS 1:6 | When she conceived again and bore a daughter, the Lord said to Hosea: ‘Call her Lo-Ruhamah – “No-Compassion” for I will no longer have compassion on Israel, certainly not spare them. |
22171 | HOS 1:8 | After she had weaned No-Compassion, and when she conceived and bore a son, he said: |
22172 | HOS 1:9 | ‘Call him Lo-Ammi – “Not-My-People” for you, Israel, are not my people, and I indeed am not your God.’ |
22197 | HOS 2:25 | and I will plant her in the land. I will have compassion to No-Compassion, I will say to Not-My-People, ‘You are my people,’ and they will say, ‘You are my God.’ |
22215 | HOS 4:13 | On the heights of the mountains they sacrifice, and on the hills they burn incense under oaks and poplars and terebinths, for their shade is so pleasant. Therefore your daughters become cult prostitutes, and your daughters-in-law commit adultery. |
22216 | HOS 4:14 | I will not punish your daughters for committing prostitution, nor your daughters-in-law for adultery. Your men visit prostitutes, sacrifice with cult prostitutes. So a people without understanding come to ruin! |
22217 | HOS 4:15 | Though you commit adultery, Israel, let not Judah become guilty. Do not go to Gilgal, do not go up to Beth-aven, nor swear an oath, ‘As the Lord lives.’ |
22229 | HOS 5:8 | Blow the trumpet in Gibeah, the clarion in Ramah! Raise the alarm in Beth-aven: we are with you, Benjamin! |
22287 | HOS 9:10 | I found Israel like finding grapes in the wilderness. I saw your ancestors like they were the first fruit on a fig tree, but as soon as they came to Baal-peor, they consecrated themselves to shamefulness, and became as abominable as the object of their love. |
22299 | HOS 10:5 | The inhabitants of Samaria will tremble with fear for their calf of Beth-aven. Its people will mourn over it, and so will its priests, who had rejoiced for its glory, now departed from it. |
22308 | HOS 10:14 | the alarm of war will sound in your cities and all your fortresses will be ruined, as Shalman laid in ruins Beth-arbel in the day of battle, when mothers were dashed to pieces over their children. |

22369 | JOL 1:9 | Cut off are the cereal and drink-offerings from the house of the Lord; in mourning are the priests, who minister at the Lord’s altar. |
22371 | JOL 1:11 | Be dismayed, farmers; wail, vine-dressers. For the wheat and the barley; for the harvest is lost from the fields. |
22373 | JOL 1:13 | Put on sackcloth, and beat your breasts, priests; wail, ministers of the altar; come, lie all night in sack-cloth, ministers of God; for cereal-offering and drink-offering are cut off from the house of your God. |
22380 | JOL 1:20 | The wild animals also look up to you longingly, for the water-courses are dried up, and fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness. |
22394 | JOL 2:14 | Who knows but he will turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him, a cereal and drink-offering for the Lord your God. |
