57 | GEN 3:1 | Now the serpent was more shrewd than any of the wild animals that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Is it really true that God said, ‘You must not eat from any tree of the orchard’?” |
59 | GEN 3:3 | but concerning the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the orchard God said, ‘You must not eat from it, and you must not touch it, or else you will die.’” |
73 | GEN 3:17 | But to Adam he said, “Because you obeyed your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground thanks to you; in painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. |
311 | GEN 12:12 | When the Egyptians see you they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ Then they will kill me but will keep you alive. |
318 | GEN 12:19 | Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Here is your wife! Take her and go!” |
360 | GEN 14:23 | that I will take nothing belonging to you, not even a thread or the strap of a sandal. That way you can never say, ‘It is I who made Abram rich.’ |
438 | GEN 18:13 | The Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child when I am old?’ |
501 | GEN 20:5 | Did Abraham not say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this with a clear conscience and with innocent hands!” |
507 | GEN 20:11 | Abraham replied, “Because I thought, ‘Surely no one fears God in this place. They will kill me because of my wife.’ |
509 | GEN 20:13 | When God made me wander from my father’s house, I told her, ‘This is what you can do to show your loyalty to me: Every place we go, say about me, “He is my brother.”’” |
564 | GEN 22:16 | and said, “‘I solemnly swear by my own name,’ decrees the Lord, ‘that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, |
599 | GEN 24:7 | “The Lord, the God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house and the land of my relatives, promised me with a solemn oath, ‘To your descendants I will give this land.’ He will send his angel before you so that you may find a wife for my son from there. |
606 | GEN 24:14 | I will say to a young woman, ‘Please lower your jar so I may drink.’ May the one you have chosen for your servant Isaac reply, ‘Drink, and I’ll give your camels water too.’ In this way I will know that you have been faithful to my master.” |
629 | GEN 24:37 | My master made me swear an oath. He said, ‘You must not acquire a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I am living, |
631 | GEN 24:39 | But I said to my master, ‘What if the woman does not want to go with me?’ |
632 | GEN 24:40 | He answered, ‘The Lord, before whom I have walked, will send his angel with you. He will make your journey a success and you will find a wife for my son from among my relatives, from my father’s family. |
634 | GEN 24:42 | When I came to the spring today, I prayed, ‘O Lord, God of my master Abraham, if you have decided to make my journey successful, may events unfold as follows: |
637 | GEN 24:45 | “Before I finished praying in my heart, along came Rebekah with her water jug on her shoulder! She went down to the spring and drew water. So I said to her, ‘Please give me a drink.’ |
639 | GEN 24:47 | Then I asked her, ‘Whose daughter are you?’ She replied, ‘The daughter of Bethuel the son of Nahor, whom Milcah bore to Nahor.’ I put the ring in her nose and the bracelets on her wrists. |
702 | GEN 26:9 | So Abimelech summoned Isaac and said, “She is really your wife! Why did you say, ‘She is my sister’?” Isaac replied, “Because I thought someone might kill me to get her.” |
735 | GEN 27:7 | ‘Bring me some wild game and prepare for me some tasty food. Then I will eat it and bless you in the presence of the Lord before I die.’ |
882 | GEN 31:8 | If he said, ‘The speckled animals will be your wage,’ then the entire flock gave birth to speckled offspring. But if he said, ‘The streaked animals will be your wage,’ then the entire flock gave birth to streaked offspring. |
885 | GEN 31:11 | In the dream the angel of God said to me, ‘Jacob!’ ‘Here I am!’ I replied. |
886 | GEN 31:12 | Then he said, ‘Observe that all the male goats mating with the flock are streaked, speckled, or spotted, for I have observed all that Laban has done to you. |
903 | GEN 31:29 | I have the power to do you harm, but the God of your father told me last night, ‘Be careful that you neither bless nor curse Jacob.’ |
933 | GEN 32:5 | He commanded them, “This is what you must say to my lord Esau: ‘This is what your servant Jacob says: I have been staying with Laban until now. |
938 | GEN 32:10 | Then Jacob prayed, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, O Lord, you said to me, ‘Return to your land and to your relatives and I will make you prosper.’ |
941 | GEN 32:13 | But you said, ‘I will certainly make you prosper and will make your descendants like the sand on the seashore, too numerous to count.’” |
946 | GEN 32:18 | He instructed the servant leading the first herd, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong? Where are you going? Whose herds are you driving?’ |
947 | GEN 32:19 | then you must say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. They have been sent as a gift to my lord Esau. In fact Jacob himself is behind us.’” |
949 | GEN 32:21 | You must also say, ‘In fact your servant Jacob is behind us.’” Jacob thought, “I will first appease him by sending a gift ahead of me. After that I will meet him. Perhaps he will accept me.” |
1142 | GEN 38:22 | So he returned to Judah and said, “I couldn’t find her. Moreover, the men of the place said, ‘There has been no cult prostitute here.’” |
1284 | GEN 42:31 | But we said to him, ‘We are honest men; we are not spies! |
1286 | GEN 42:33 | “Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘This is how I will find out if you are honest men. Leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for your hungry households and go. |
1294 | GEN 43:3 | But Judah said to him, “The man solemnly warned us, ‘You will not see my face unless your brother is with you.’ |
1296 | GEN 43:5 | But if you will not send him, we won’t go down there because the man said to us, ‘You will not see my face unless your brother is with you.’” |
1298 | GEN 43:7 | They replied, “The man questioned us thoroughly about ourselves and our family, saying, ‘Is your father still alive? Do you have another brother?’ So we answered him in this way. How could we possibly know that he would say, ‘Bring your brother down’?” |
1329 | GEN 44:4 | They had not gone very far from the city when Joseph said to the servant who was over his household, “Pursue the men at once! When you overtake them, say to them, ‘Why have you repaid good with evil? |
1344 | GEN 44:19 | My lord asked his servants, ‘Do you have a father or a brother?’ |
1345 | GEN 44:20 | We said to my lord, ‘We have an aged father, and there is a young boy who was born when our father was old. The boy’s brother is dead. He is the only one of his mother’s sons left, and his father loves him.’ |
1346 | GEN 44:21 | “Then you told your servants, ‘Bring him down to me so I can see him.’ |
1347 | GEN 44:22 | We said to my lord, ‘The boy cannot leave his father. If he leaves his father, his father will die.’ |
1348 | GEN 44:23 | But you said to your servants, ‘If your youngest brother does not come down with you, you will not see my face again.’ |
1350 | GEN 44:25 | “Then our father said, ‘Go back and buy us a little food.’ |
1351 | GEN 44:26 | But we replied, ‘We cannot go down there. If our youngest brother is with us, then we will go, for we won’t be permitted to see the man’s face if our youngest brother is not with us.’ |
1352 | GEN 44:27 | “Then your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife gave me two sons. |
1357 | GEN 44:32 | Indeed, your servant pledged security for the boy with my father, saying, ‘If I do not bring him back to you, then I will bear the blame before my father all my life.’ |
1368 | GEN 45:9 | Now go up to my father quickly and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: “God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me; do not delay! |
1376 | GEN 45:17 | Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Say to your brothers, ‘Do this: Load your animals and go to the land of Canaan! |
1378 | GEN 45:19 | You are also commanded to say, ‘Do this: Take for yourselves wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives. Bring your father and come. |
1418 | GEN 46:31 | Then Joseph said to his brothers and his father’s household, “I will go up and tell Pharaoh, ‘My brothers and my father’s household who were in the land of Canaan have come to me. |
1420 | GEN 46:33 | Pharaoh will summon you and say, ‘What is your occupation?’ |
1421 | GEN 46:34 | Tell him, ‘Your servants have taken care of cattle from our youth until now, both we and our fathers,’ so that you may live in the land of Goshen, for everyone who takes care of sheep is disgusting to the Egyptians.” |
1456 | GEN 48:4 | He said to me, ‘I am going to make you fruitful and will multiply you. I will make you into a group of nations, and I will give this land to your descendants as an everlasting possession.’ |
1472 | GEN 48:20 | So he blessed them that day, saying, “By you will Israel bless, saying, ‘May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh.’” So he put Ephraim before Manasseh. |
1512 | GEN 50:5 | ‘My father made me swear an oath. He said, “I am about to die. Bury me in my tomb that I dug for myself there in the land of Canaan.” Now let me go and bury my father; then I will return.’” |
1524 | GEN 50:17 | ‘Tell Joseph this: Please forgive the sin of your brothers and the wrong they did when they treated you so badly.’ Now please forgive the sin of the servants of the God of your father.” When this message was reported to him, Joseph wept. |
1593 | EXO 3:13 | Moses said to God, “If I go to the Israelites and tell them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ – what should I say to them?” |
1594 | EXO 3:14 | God said to Moses, “I am that I am.” And he said, “You must say this to the Israelites, ‘I am has sent me to you.’” |
1595 | EXO 3:15 | God also said to Moses, “You must say this to the Israelites, ‘The Lord – the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob – has sent me to you. This is my name forever, and this is my memorial from generation to generation.’ |
1596 | EXO 3:16 | “Go and bring together the elders of Israel and tell them, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers, appeared to me – the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – saying, “I have attended carefully to you and to what has been done to you in Egypt, |
1598 | EXO 3:18 | “The elders will listen to you, and then you and the elders of Israel must go to the king of Egypt and tell him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. So now, let us go three days’ journey into the wilderness, so that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God.’ |
1603 | EXO 4:1 | Moses answered again, “And if they do not believe me or pay attention to me, but say, ‘The Lord has not appeared to you’?” |
1624 | EXO 4:22 | You must say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Israel is my son, my firstborn, |
1625 | EXO 4:23 | and I said to you, ‘Let my son go that he may serve me,’ but since you have refused to let him go, I will surely kill your son, your firstborn!”’” |
1634 | EXO 5:1 | Afterward Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘Release my people so that they may hold a pilgrim feast to me in the desert.’” |
1641 | EXO 5:8 | But you must require of them the same quota of bricks that they were making before. Do not reduce it, for they are slackers. That is why they are crying, ‘Let us go sacrifice to our God.’ |
1643 | EXO 5:10 | So the slave masters of the people and their foremen went to the Israelites and said, “Thus says Pharaoh: ‘I am not giving you straw. |
1649 | EXO 5:16 | No straw is given to your servants, but we are told, ‘Make bricks!’ Your servants are even being beaten, but the fault is with your people.” |
1650 | EXO 5:17 | But Pharaoh replied, “You are slackers! Slackers! That is why you are saying, ‘Let us go sacrifice to the Lord.’ |
1659 | EXO 6:3 | I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by my name ‘the Lord’ I was not known to them. |
1662 | EXO 6:6 | Therefore, tell the Israelites, ‘I am the Lord. I will bring you out from your enslavement to the Egyptians, I will rescue you from the hard labor they impose, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments. |
1695 | EXO 7:9 | “When Pharaoh says to you, ‘Do a miracle,’ and you say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,’ it will become a snake.” |
1702 | EXO 7:16 | Tell him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you to say, “Release my people, that they may serve me in the desert!” But until now you have not listened. |
1705 | EXO 7:19 | Then the Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your staff and stretch out your hand over Egypt’s waters – over their rivers, over their canals, over their ponds, and over all their reservoirs – so that it becomes blood.’ There will be blood everywhere in the land of Egypt, even in wooden and stone containers.” |
1712 | EXO 7:26 | Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Release my people in order that they may serve me! |
1716 | EXO 8:1 | The Lord spoke to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Extend your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the canals, and over the ponds, and bring the frogs up over the land of Egypt.’” |
1727 | EXO 8:12 | The Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Extend your staff and strike the dust of the ground, and it will become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.’” |
1731 | EXO 8:16 | The Lord said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning and position yourself before Pharaoh as he goes out to the water, and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Release my people that they may serve me! |
1744 | EXO 9:1 | Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, “Release my people that they may serve me! |
1756 | EXO 9:13 | The Lord said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews: “Release my people so that they may serve me! |
1781 | EXO 10:3 | So Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh and told him, “Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews: ‘How long do you refuse to humble yourself before me? Release my people so that they may serve me! |
1811 | EXO 11:4 | Moses said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘About midnight I will go throughout Egypt, |
1820 | EXO 12:3 | Tell the whole community of Israel, ‘In the tenth day of this month they each must take a lamb for themselves according to their families – a lamb for each household. |
1843 | EXO 12:26 | When your children ask you, ‘What does this ceremony mean to you?’ – |
1844 | EXO 12:27 | then you will say, ‘It is the sacrifice of the Lord’s Passover, when he passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt, when he struck Egypt and delivered our households.’” The people bowed down low to the ground, |
1876 | EXO 13:8 | You are to tell your son on that day, ‘It is because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.’ |
1882 | EXO 13:14 | In the future, when your son asks you ‘What is this?’ you are to tell him, ‘With a mighty hand the Lord brought us out from Egypt, from the land of slavery. |
1893 | EXO 14:3 | Pharaoh will think regarding the Israelites, ‘They are wandering around confused in the land – the desert has closed in on them.’ |
1902 | EXO 14:12 | Isn’t this what we told you in Egypt, ‘Leave us alone so that we can serve the Egyptians, because it is better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert!’” |
1930 | EXO 15:9 | The enemy said, ‘I will chase, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my desire will be satisfied on them. I will draw my sword, my hand will destroy them.’ |
1957 | EXO 16:9 | Then Moses said to Aaron, “Tell the whole community of the Israelites, ‘Come before the Lord, because he has heard your murmurings.’” |
1960 | EXO 16:12 | “I have heard the murmurings of the Israelites. Tell them, ‘During the evening you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be satisfied with bread, so that you may know that I am the Lord your God.’” |
1964 | EXO 16:16 | “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Each person is to gather from it what he can eat, an omer per person according to the number of your people; each one will pick it up for whoever lives in his tent.’” |
1971 | EXO 16:23 | He said to them, “This is what the Lord has said: ‘Tomorrow is a time of cessation from work, a holy Sabbath to the Lord. Whatever you want to bake, bake today; whatever you want to boil, boil today; whatever is left put aside for yourselves to be kept until morning.’” |
1980 | EXO 16:32 | Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Fill an omer with it to be kept for generations to come, so that they may see the food I fed you in the desert when I brought you out from the land of Egypt.’” |
2031 | EXO 19:4 | ‘You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt and how I lifted you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. |
2039 | EXO 19:12 | You must set boundaries for the people all around, saying, ‘Take heed to yourselves not to go up on the mountain nor touch its edge. Whoever touches the mountain will surely be put to death! |
2050 | EXO 19:23 | Moses said to the Lord, “The people are not able to come up to Mount Sinai, because you solemnly warned us, ‘Set boundaries for the mountain and set it apart.’” |
2074 | EXO 20:22 | The Lord said to Moses: “Thus you will tell the Israelites: ‘You yourselves have seen that I have spoken with you from heaven. |
