146 | GEN 6:8 | Just one man pleased God. His name was Noah, he used to listen to God. He used to do good. He didn't do evil. He had three children, three males, their names were Shem, Ham, Japheth. |
149 | GEN 6:11 | God said to Noah, “All the other people are living really badly. They ignore me, they don't listen to me. They are talking to each other all the time to do evil and they are hitting/killing each other. Because of that reason I will kill them all. |
160 | GEN 6:22 | Noah believed God. He made a very big boat, with wood he made it, long and wide. And he collected a large amount of different foods and put them in (the boat). Truly Noah did all in accordance with God's word. |
165 | GEN 7:5 | Noah entered the boat because of God's word. And he took his wife and children and their wives and the animals and birds. They all entered. |
190 | GEN 8:6 | After that, after one month, Noah sent out a crow. The crow was searching for dry ground and trees. He went away for good, he didn't return. |
192 | GEN 8:8 | After that, after 7 days, Noah sent another creature, a dove. It was searching in vain for dry ground. Soon it returned to the boat. Noah stretched out his arm, the dove landed on his arm, Noah put him inside the boat. |
194 | GEN 8:10 | Noah waited seven days. After that again he sent out the dove. |
195 | GEN 8:11 | In the late afternoon it returned to the boat, it carried a leaf in its mouth. Noah said, “The water is really going down.” |
196 | GEN 8:12 | After that, in seven days, Noah again tried out the dove. It went away for good, it did not return. It saw ground. |
197 | GEN 8:13 | Noah waited one month. After that he looked around. |
199 | GEN 8:15 | Then God said to Noah, “You (pl) get down and make the animals and birds get down. They've got to scatter. They have to become many everywhere.” |
202 | GEN 8:18 | Then they got down from the boat, Noah and his wife and children and daughters-in-law and the different kinds of animals and birds. |
204 | GEN 8:20 | Noah heaped up stones. He got a few tame animals and tame birds to give to God. He killed them, on top of the stones he burned/cooked them, bones and all, completely dry, to ashes. They used to do that in the beginning, in order to please God. |
205 | GEN 8:21 | In return God said to Noah, “Previously I made it bad for the whole earth because of the evil that people did. I won't do like that again. I know about people. From childhood they are thinking only about how to do really bad (things). I will not again kill people and all creatures truly because of the evil that people have done. I did it once. I won't do it again. |
206 | GEN 8:22 | Now summer and winter will follow each other. Heat and cold will follow each other. Day and night will follow each other. Just like that they will be.” |
207 | GEN 9:1 | God spoke kindly to Noah and his children. “You will have many children. They will be everywhere. |
209 | GEN 9:3 | Now I am giving them all to you to eat, the fish and animals and birds. Previously you only used to eat vegetable food. Now you can also eat meat. |
214 | GEN 9:8 | God spoke another word to Noah and his children, “I am giving you (pl) this word, for you and yours, and for all the animals and for everything on the ground. |
224 | GEN 9:18 | Those children of Noah, Shem, Ham and Japheth had children. From them all of us came. [NOTE: Chapter 10 has been omitted at this stage, because it would merely confuse and distract struggling readers.] |
234 | GEN 9:28 | After the big flood Noah lived a long time, 350 years. |
294 | GEN 11:27 | A long time after that big flood a man appeared, his name was Abram. He was an inhabitant of that country Chaldea. He lived in the town named Ur. His father's name was Terah, his younger brothers were Nahor and Haran. (That Haran had children, a son named Lot, and two daughters named Milcah and Iscah.) While Terah was still alive Haran died in his country, in that town Ur. |
296 | GEN 11:29 | Nahor and Haran's daughter Milcah got married. Abram and Sarai got married, those two. |
365 | GEN 15:4 | In reply God said to him, “Not your worker, not Eliezer, he will not get your possessions. Your own child, he is the one who will get your possessions.” |
374 | GEN 15:13 | Later your grandchildren will go to another country. Not to their country, they will go to the country of foreigners. They will be right there for a long time, for 400 years. The inhabitants of that country will make them work hard, for no money, just for food. Truly they will keep your people for a long time in a very bad way. |
377 | GEN 15:16 | They will stay in that country for 400 years, after that they will come back here. Not now I will give them this country. It is for later. Right now those people what's-their-name, Amu's mob, they are here. This is their country. Later they will become evil-doers, very bad. Right after that I will hit them, truly this country I will give to your people.” Like that God spoke to him. |
387 | GEN 16:5 | After that Sarai became angry with Abram. “I gave you my working woman to keep in the camp. Now after becoming pregnant she has beome proud towards me. You are to blame. God will tell you, I am right.” |
406 | GEN 17:8 | Yes, this country, they name it Canaan country, I will give to your grandchildren's grandchildren and those who come after them. Now you are staying in this country like a stranger. Later all this country will belong to your mob forever, I will be a father for them. |
435 | GEN 18:10 | God said to him, “Truly after a year I will return, Sarah will give birth to a child, she will have a boy.” Nearby, inside the tent, Sarah was listening. |
521 | GEN 21:7 | Everyone was saying I would remain forever without a child for Abraham. Now I have given birth to a child for him after he is old.” |
532 | GEN 21:18 | I will look after him. I will give him many grandchildren's grandchildren and those who come after them. Now go to him, take him by the hand, make him stand up.” Like that God spoke to her. |
585 | GEN 23:13 | He said to Ephron, “No. I will give you money for that land. Take this money from me. After that that land will be mine, I will put the dead one there.” |
588 | GEN 23:16 | “No, I will truly give you the money.” Right then Abraham gave Ephron 400 (pieces of) money, in accordance with Ephron's word. |
602 | GEN 24:10 | After that that worker gathered possessions and gold and various things from Abraham's (belongings). If he should get a young girl, he would give (them) to that girl and her father and mother. After that he got 10 of Abraham's camels, he went towards that country, towards Mesopotamia. He was going camp by camp right to that town, to what's-that-place, Abraham's younger brother, Nahor, used to live there. |
607 | GEN 24:15 | Just as he was talking to God, Rebekah came, she was carrying a water container on her shoulder. That young girl had a beautiful face. She had not slept with a man. She did not have a promised one. (Her father's name was Bethuel. Bethuel's mother's name was Milcah, his father's name was Nahor. That Nahor was Abraham's younger brother.) Rebekah came down to the well, she filled the water container, she climbed back up. |
616 | GEN 24:24 | She replied, “My father is Bethuel. He is Nahor's son, his mother is Milcah. |
634 | GEN 24:42 | Today I arrived at the well near your town. I said to God, 'God, my master Abraham obeys you, he is in your mob. Now please do good to me. Show me that wife for Isaac. |
639 | GEN 24:47 | After that I asked her, 'Who is your father?' She said to me, 'My father is Bethuel. He is Nahor's son, his mother is Milcah.' After that I put the nose-thing on the young woman, I put two arm-things on her arms. |
648 | GEN 24:56 | He said to them, “God has done good to me. Now I should go soon to my master. Please don't prevent me.” |
659 | GEN 24:67 | After that Isaac took Rebekah to a tent. That tent earlier was his mother's. He was sad after his mother died. Now Rebekah became his wife. Isaac truly loved her. Right after that he became happy, he was not sad for his mother. |
763 | GEN 27:35 | He said to him, “No, truly! I gave him my good word. Your younger brother deceived me for that word. I gave him my good word. I truly cannot give you that word.” |
778 | GEN 28:4 | God earlier made a promise to your grandfather Abraham, he told him, 'This country will be for your family for ever.' In accordance with that word he will give you this country. Now you are staying here like a stranger. Later God will give you this country forever.” |
801 | GEN 29:5 | He said to them, “Do you know Laban, Nahor's grandson?” “Yes, we know him.” |
811 | GEN 29:15 | After that Laban said to him, “You are my own nephew. You were just working for me. Now after working what shall I give you?” |
830 | GEN 29:34 | After that she got another child, a male. Then she said, “I gave my husband three male children. Now truly he will love me.” So she named that one Levi. |
839 | GEN 30:8 | Rachel said, “My sister and I have been struggling with each other because of children, I truly got this child, my sister did not prevent me.” So she named that child Naphtali. |
857 | GEN 30:26 | Truly I worked for you for my wives (dual) and children. You know that. Now I will take them. Do not make me stay. I will go.” |
859 | GEN 30:28 | Name for yourself whatever you want, I will give you whatever, after that you will stay with me.” |
886 | GEN 31:12 | 'I am God. Earlier I appeared to you at Bethel. There you stood up that rock for a reminder, and you poured oil on it for me, you told me, “I will listen to you.” I have been watching you. I know about Laban, he has been deceiving you. Look at those animals. The male goats with spots and stripes are mating, the other males are not mating. Now listen to me. Leave this country, go back to your own country.' In that way God spoke to me.” |
907 | GEN 31:33 | After that Laban entered Jacob's tent. He was searching for those Dreamtime-Being-like things. He didn't see those things there. After that he was searching in Leah's tent, he didn't see them there either. After that he went into the tent of those two working women. Nothing, there also unsuccessfully he was searching for them. After that he went to Rachel's tent. |
913 | GEN 31:39 | When wild dogs would bite dead your goats and sheep I did not take those dead ones to show you. No. I put in my sheep and goats in replacement of those dead ones of yours. When other people secretly took yours in the day or night you used to ask me to put (mine) for those. |
917 | GEN 31:43 | After that Laban answered him, “These two are my children, those children of theirs are my grandchildren. Those animals and other things you kept are mine too. You look! These are mine only. Perhaps I might keep my daughters and their children. No, I am just letting them go with you. |
927 | GEN 31:53 | One of us two might ignore this word, God will know about him. Our two paternal grandfathers, Abraham and Nahor, used to obey him. Perhaps I might ignore that word. In that case truly that same one, God, he will hit me. Perhaps you might ignore that word. In that case truly that same one, God, he will hit you.” Like that Laban spoke to Jacob. Jacob listened to Laban's word. He said to Laban, “That same God is the one my father Isaac used to obey, that God knows about me. I am keeping that word for you.” |
934 | GEN 32:6 | Now he has cattle and donkeys and sheep and goats and workers, men and women. He sent you this word. Perhaps you will feel good towards him. Perhaps you will do something good to him.'#” He told his men, “You will talk like that to Esau.” |
939 | GEN 32:11 | Truly you have been doing good things for me. I am quite unimportant, just rubbish. Earlier when I left my country I crossed to the far side of this river, this Jordan river, I was just going with only a walking stick. Now I have returned with many animals and people. |
958 | GEN 32:30 | After that Jacob asked him, “And who are you?” He said to him, “Don't ask, you can't talk in that way to me. Now I will do good to you.” Like that he spoke to Jacob. Then he left Jacob there, he went away. |
963 | GEN 33:2 | He put the two working women and their children in the lead. Near those two he put Leah and her children, behind he put Rachel and her child Joseph. |
970 | GEN 33:9 | “No, I have enough, younger brother. Keep them for yourself.” |
1022 | GEN 35:10 | He gave Jacob another name, that name Israel. He said to Jacob, “Your name used to be Jacob. Now they will not call you Jacob, they will name you Israel. |
1024 | GEN 35:12 | Earlier I gave this country to your grandfather and your father, to Abraham and Isaac. Now I will give it to you and your grandchildren, and those who come after them.” In that way he talked to Jacob. |
1031 | GEN 35:19 | They put Rachel in a hole in the ground near the road, that road was going to Ephrath. (Nowadays they name that town Bethlehem.) |
1611 | EXO 4:9 | If they still do not believe you, you shall take some water from the river, from the Nile river. You will pour it on the dry ground, that water will become blood.” |
1615 | EXO 4:13 | Moses answered, “Not me, please send another.” |
1621 | EXO 4:19 | While Moses was still in Midian, God said to him, “Long ago those in Egypt wanted to kill you. Now they are all dead. Now you will go back to Egypt.” |
1623 | EXO 4:21 | Again God said to him, “Now you are going back to Egypt. I have showed you the wonderful (things) that you must do. Truly you must do them all, he will see them all, that Egyptian king. But I will make him stubborn, he will not let your people go. |
13931 | JOB 42:5 | Others told me about you long ago. I thought I knew you. Now it is different, I have seen you with my own eyes. Therefore I am really ashamed of my words, I won't talk like that again. |
14375 | PSA 32:1 | Some people have done badly, but they told God they were sorry, and he let them off. Now they are very happy. |
14376 | PSA 32:2 | Some people have done badly, but they told God they were sorry, they did not try to deceive him, and he did not growl at them. Now they are very happy. |
14381 | PSA 32:7 | I am safe when I am with you, You will keep me well when trouble might hurt me. You take my part. Therefore I sing loudly, “Ngarrka has saved me!” |
14382 | PSA 32:8 | The Boss says, “Listen to me! Don't be stupid like a horse or donkey. You must put a bridle on them. If you don't, they won't go where you want them to go. Don't be stupid like them. Should I have to put a bridle on you? No indeed! With my words I will teach you the way you should go. I will tell you what I want you to do. You should keep on paying attention to me. |
23254 | MAT 2:16 | Herod was waiting in vain for the men from the east. They did not return to him, they did not send a word to him about that camp in Bethlehem where Jesus was (lit. 'Jesus-having'). Then he became very angry. Previously he had asked the strangers from the east, “When did that star appear?” Now he is thinking to himself, “That star appeared maybe one year ago. I will kill all the children in Bethlehem under two years (lit. 'without two winters'), the ones having two years (winters) also, truly I will kill them all.” Therefore he called his soldiers. “Listen! Go to Bethlehem. There kill all the boys under two years, kill all the ones having two years also. You will not leave one alive.” Those soldiers did that, in accordance with Herod's word. |
23255 | MAT 2:17 | After that the people in Bethlehem were really crying for their children. A very long time ago one of God's spokesmen, who-was-it, Jeremiah, spoke a word, “In that country, where-is-it, in Ramah, there someone is crying very loudly. That woman of long ago, Rachel, she is crying, she is really crying for her children. Others took them. She is crying for them continually.” That Jeremiah wrote those words about Rachel in a book. Now in that same way truly those people in Bethlehem were crying hard for their children, like that. |
23261 | MAT 2:23 | He became a local inhabitant in the town Nazareth. A long time ago God's spokesmen said about Jesus, “They will say about him, he is an inhabitant of lowly (a derogatory term) Nazareth.” |
24291 | MRK 1:7 | John was saying to them, “About now another man will come. He is a really big boss. Not like me, I am really unimportant, a scrap. This other one is an important boss. I truly should not touch his shoes. |
24293 | MRK 1:9 | After that Jesus came to John from the town of Nazareth, in the country of Galilee. At that time John baptised Jesus in that river Jordan. |
24297 | MRK 1:13 | He was there 40 days and nights. While he was there truly the big evil spirit was trying in vain to persuade him to ignore God's word. Nothing. Jesus was without evil all the time. Wild and biting animals were there. God sent angels from above to take care of him. |
24306 | MRK 1:22 | They were puzzling about his word. “Truly it is different. This man truly talks correctly. Not like our teachers. They are just talkers of other peoples' words. This Jesus teaches us with a correct word. Truly God told him to talk like that.” |
24308 | MRK 1:24 | He was afraid, he called out loudly, “Jesus from Nazareth! What do you want for us spirits? Having come will you hit us to kill us? I know you. God sent you. You are God's one who is truly without evil.” |
24452 | MRK 5:19 | He replied, “No. Return to your people. Tell them God was sorry for you, he truly made you well.” |
24556 | MRK 7:24 | After that Jesus left his country. He went northwards, he went to another country belonging to foreigners, to the country named Syro-Phoenicia. He was staying close to a town, its name was Tyre. He entered a house to be alone. He said to himself, “The local people don't know me. They will not recognise me.” No. In vain he tried to avoid them. |
24571 | MRK 8:2 | “These people have been with me a long time, three days. Now their food has run out. I feel sorry for them. |
24625 | MRK 9:18 | The spirit grabs him, it throws him on the ground. Saliva froths from his mouth, he grinds his teeth, his body becomes very stiff. Therefore I brought him to you so you can make him well. I asked your men to send the demon right away. Nothing. They tried in vain to send it away.” |
24704 | MRK 10:47 | At that time people were saying to each other, “That man going straight on is Jesus from Nazareth. The blind man when he heard was calling out, “Jesus, God sent you in accordance with his word from long ago. Please be sorry for me.” |
24705 | MRK 10:48 | Some people were rebuking him, they were saying to him, “Be quiet!” No. He was truly calling loudly, “Jesus. Please be sorry for me.” |
24726 | MRK 11:17 | He said to everyone, “In God's book someone from long ago wrote this word: 'God's house is for all people everywhere. Here they will pray to God.' No way! You have truly been stopping them. You have made God's house a place for thieves. |
24741 | MRK 11:32 | We might say a different word to him. We might say, “It was just a person who told him'. No. We cannot say that!” In that way they were secretly talking to each other. They were very afraid of people. All the people were thinking truly God sent John to them to teach them God's word. |
24785 | MRK 12:43 | Jesus said to his men, “Do you see that poor woman? She has very little money. She put in all of it for God. Now she has no money for food or anything. This word I am telling you is true, those others have a lot of money. From a lot they gave just some for God. They put in a little for God. That poor bereaved woman put in much. She gave everything to God. |
24890 | MRK 14:67 | She saw Peter near the fire, he was getting warm. After looking straight at him, she said to him, “That Jesus from Nazareth, truly you are from his mob.” |
24893 | MRK 14:70 | Again Peter denied (lit. 'blocked') it, “No!” Later those who were standing there said to him, “Truly you belong to Jesus. You are from Galilee.” |
24908 | MRK 15:13 | They replied by calling out, “Nail him on a tree. By doing that kill him.” |
24909 | MRK 15:14 | Again Pilate asked them, “Why? What did he do wrong?” They were calling out very loudly, “Nail him on a tree.” |
24935 | MRK 15:40 | Many women were standing there, they were watching from far off. Earlier when Jesus was going around Galilee those women were following him, They used to cook food for him and things like that. Now they were watching from a long way off. Among them was Mary Magdalene and Salome and another Mary. (She was the mother of those two, James the Younger and Judas.) |
24948 | MRK 16:6 | He said to them, “Don't be afraid! Truly you are looking for the body of Jesus from Nazareth, that one they earlier nailed to the wood. After he died God truly made him alive. He is not here now. Look! This is where they put him. He went from here. |
24952 | MRK 16:10 | Now after she saw Jesus Mary went to his people. They were mourning together. She said to them, “Jesus, our Boss, did not stay dead. After dying he became alive, I saw him.” They did not believe Mary. They ignored her word. |
24954 | MRK 16:12 | In the afternoon two others went away from Jerusalem. Already they were believing in Jesus. Now Jesus appeared to them. Those two thought he was someone else, they did not recognise him. |
25663 | LUK 15:6 | Then you will call out to all your people, “Come here! This sheep of mine ran away into the bush. Truly I have found it. Now I am very happy. Let us all be happy.” |
25666 | LUK 15:9 | When she finds (the coin), she will call to the other people, “Come here! That money that I lost, truly I have found it! Now I am very happy. Let's all be happy!” |
25681 | LUK 15:24 | I thought my son was as good as dead for ever. He’s not! He’s alive! He went far away. It was as if he had left me for ever. Not so! He has returned to me still alive!’ Then they were happily singing and dancing. |
25686 | LUK 15:29 | The eldest one answered his father sulkily, “I have truly stayed with you always, I have worked for you through the winter and the summer. I have always obeyed you [listened for your word]. In return you didn't give me a little goat. I and my fellows could have (but didn't) eat an animal with happiness. No indeed! You didn't give me an animal to kill and to eat. |
25687 | LUK 15:30 | I am not like this youngest one of yours, (that) you gave your country to. He got money for that country, he messed up [made a mistake with] all his money on women. Now when he returns home you kill the fat bullock for him. |
