<02320 +chodesh > Chisleu <03691 +Kiclev > , in the twentieth

<06242 +<esriym > year <08141 +shaneh > , as I was in Shushan

01 : 02 That Hanani <02607 +Chananiy > , one <00259 +>echad > of

my brethren <00251 +>ach > , came <00935 +bow> > , he and [

certain ] men <00582 +>enowsh > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > ;

Jews <03064 +Y@huwdiy > that had escaped <06413 +p@leytah > ,

which <00834 +>aher > were left <07604 +sha>ar > of the

01 : 04 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when I heard

<08085 +shama< > these <00428 +>el - leh > words <01697 +dabar >

01 : 05 . And said <00559 +>amar > , I beseech <00577 +>anna> >

thee , O LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > God <00430 +>elohiym > of heaven

<08064 +shamayim > , the great <01419 +gadowl > and terrible

attentive <07183 +qashshab > , and thine eyes <05869 +<ayin >

open <06605 +pathach > , that thou mayest hear <08085 +shama< >

the prayer <08605 +t@phillah > of thy servant <05650 +<ebed > ,

which <00834 +>aher > I pray <06419 +palal > before <06440

+paniym > thee now <03117 +yowm > , day <03119 +yowmam > and

night <03915 +layil > , for the children <01121 +ben > of Israel

<03478 +Yisra>el > thy servants <05650 +<ebed > , and confess

<03034 +yadah > the sins <02403 +chatta>ah > of the children

<01121 +ben > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > , which <00834 +>aher

> we have sinned <02398 +chata> > against thee : both I and my

father s <1> house <01004 +bayith > have sinned <02398 +chata> >

01 : 07 We have dealt very corruptly <02254 +chabal > against

thee , and have not kept <08104 +shamar > the commandments

<04687 +mitsvah > , nor the statutes <02706 +choq > , nor the

judgments <04941 +mishpat > , which <00834 +>aher > thou

commandedst <06680 +tsavah > thy servant <05650 +<ebed > Moses

<04872 +Mosheh > .

01 : 08 Remember <02142 +zakar > , I beseech <04994 +na> > thee ,

the word <01697 +dabar > that thou commandedst <06680 +tsavah >

thy servant <05650 +<ebed > Moses <04872 +Mosheh > , saying

<00559 +>amar > , [ If ] ye transgress <04603 +ma<al > , I will

scatter <06327 +puwts > you abroad <06327 +puwts > among the

nations <05971 +<am > :

01 : 09 But [ if ] ye turn <07725 +shuwb > unto me , and keep

<08104 +shamar > mycommandments <04687 +mitsvah > , and do

<06213 +<asah > them ; though <00518 +>im > there were of you

cast <05080 +nadach > out unto the uttermost <07097 +qatseh >

part of the heaven <08064 +shamayim > , [ yet ] will I gather

<06908 +qabats > them from thence <08033 +sham > , and will

bring <00935 +bow> > them unto the place <04725 +maqowm > that I

have chosen <00970 +bachuwr > to set <07931 +shakan > my name

<08034 +shem > there <08033 +sham > .

01 : 10 Now these <01992 +hem > [ are ] thy servants <05650

+<ebed > and thy people <05971 +<am > , whom <00834 +>aher >

thou hast redeemed <06299 +padah > by thy great <01419 +gadowl >

power <03581 +koach > , and by thy strong <02389 +chazaq > hand

<03027 +yad > .

01 : 11 O Lord <00136 +>Adonay > , I beseech <00577 +>anna> >

thee , let now <04994 +na> > thine ear <00241 +>ozen > be

attentive <07183 +qashshab > to the prayer <08605 +t@phillah >

of thy servant <05650 +<ebed > , and to the prayer <08605

+t@phillah > of thy servants <05650 +<ebed > , who desire <02655

+chaphets > to fear <03372 +yare> > thy name <08034 +shem > :

and prosper <06743 +tsalach > , I pray <04994 +na> > thee , thy

servant <05650 +<ebed > this day <03117 +yowm > , and grant

<05414 +nathan > him mercy <07356 +racham > in the sight <06440

+paniym > of this <02088 +zeh > man <00376 +>iysh > . For I was

the king s <04428 +melek > cupbearer <04945 +mashqeh > .

02 : 01 . And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass in the month

<02320 +chodesh > Nisan <05212 +Niycan > , in the twentieth

<06242 +<esriym > year <08141 +shaneh > of Artaxerxes <00783

+>Artachshashta> > the king <04428 +melek > , [ that ] wine

<03196 +yayin > [ was ] before <06440 +paniym > him : and I took

<05375 +nasa> > up the wine <03196 +yayin > , and gave <05414

+nathan > [ it ] unto the king <04428 +melek > . Now I had not

been <01961 +hayah > [ beforetime ] sad <07451 +ra< > in his

presence <06440 +paniym > .

02 : 02 Wherefore the king <04428 +melek > said <00559 +>amar >

unto me , Why <04069 +madduwa< > [ is ] thy countenance <06440

+paniym > sad <07451 +ra< > , seeing thou [ art ] not sick

<02470 +chalah > ? this <02088 +zeh > [ is ] nothing <00369

+>ayin > [ else ] but sorrow <07455 +roa< > of heart <03820 +leb

<03372 +yare> > ,

02 : 03 And said <00559 +>amar > unto the king <04428 +melek > ,

Let the king <04428 +melek > live <02421 +chayah > for ever

<05769 +<owlam > : why <04069 +madduwa< > should not my

countenance <06440 +paniym > be sad <07489 +ra<a< > , when

<00834 +>aher > the city <05892 +<iyr > , the place <01004

+bayith > of my fathers <1> sepulchres <06913 +qeber > , [ lieth

] waste <02720 +chareb > , and the gates <08179 +sha<ar >

thereof are consumed <00398 +>akal > with fire <00784 +>esh > ?

02 : 04 Then the king <04428 +melek > said <00559 +>amar > unto

me , For what <04100 +mah > dost thou make request <01245

+baqash > ? So I prayed <06419 +palal > to the God <00430

+>elohiym > of heaven <08064 +shamayim > .

02 : 05 And I said <00559 +>amar > unto the king <04428 +melek >

, If <00518 +>im > it please <02895 +towb > the king <04428

+melek > , and if <00518 +>im > thy servant <05650 +<ebed > have

found favour <03190 +yatab > in thy sight <06440 +paniym > ,

that thou wouldest send <07971 +shalach > me unto Judah <03063

+Y@huwdah > , unto the city <05892 +<iyr > of my fathers <1>

sepulchres <06913 +qeber > , that I may build <01129 +banah > it

02 : 06 And the king <04428 +melek > said <00559 +>amar > unto

me , ( the queen <07694 +shegal > also sitting <03427 +yashab >

by him , ) For how <05704 +<ad > long <05704 +<ad > shall thy

journey <04109 +mahalak > be ? and when <04970 +mathay > wilt

thou return <07725 +shuwb > ? So it pleased <03190 +yatab > the

king <04428 +melek > to send <07971 +shalach > me ; and I set

<05414 +nathan > him a time <02165 +z@man > .

02 : 07 Moreover I said <00559 +>amar > unto the king <04428

+melek > , If it please <02895 +towb > the king <04428 +melek > ,

let letters <00107 +>iggereth > be given <05414 +nathan > me to

the governors <06346 +pechah > beyond <05676 +<eber > the river

<05104 +nahar > , that they may convey <05674 +<abar > me over

<05674 +<abar > till <05704 +<ad > I come <00935 +bow> > into

<00413 +>el > Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > ;

02 : 08 And a letter <00107 +>iggereth > unto Asaph <00623

+>Acaph > the keeper <8104shamar > of the king s <04428 +melek >

forest <06508 +pardec > , that he may give <05414 +nathan > me

timber <06086 +<ets > to make beams <07136 +qarah > for the

gates <08179 +sha<ar > of the palace <01002 +biyrah > which

<00834 +>aher > [ appertained ] to the house <01004 +bayith > ,

and for the wall <02346 +chowmah > of the city <05892 +<iyr > ,

and for the house <01004 +bayith > that I shall enter <00935

+bow> > into <05921 +<al > . And the king <04428 +melek >

granted <05414 +nathan > me , according to the good <02896 +towb

> hand <03027 +yad > of my God <00430 +>elohiym > upon me .

02 : 09 . Then I came <00935 +bow> > to the governors <06346

+pechah > beyond <05676 +<eber > the river <05104 +nahar > , and

gave <05414 +nathan > them the king s <04428 +melek > letters

<00107 +>iggereth > . Now the king <04428 +melek > had sent

<07971 +shalach > captains <08269 +sar > of the army <02428

+chayil > and horsemen <06571 +parash > with me .

02 : 10 When Sanballat <05571 +Canballat > the Horonite <02772

+Choroniy > , and Tobiah <02900 +Towbiyah > the servant <05650

+<ebed > , the Ammonite <05984 +<Ammowniy > , heard <08085

+shama< > [ of it ] , it grieved <07489 +ra<a< > them

exceedingly <01419 +gadowl > that there was come <00935 +bow> >

a man <00120 +>adam > to seek <01245 +baqash > the welfare

<02896 +towb > of the children <01121 +ben > of Israel <03478

+Yisra>el >

02 : 11 So I came <00935 +bow> > to Jerusalem <03389

+Y@ruwshalaim > , and was there <08033 +sham > three <07969

+shalowsh > days <03117 +yowm > .

02 : 12 And I arose <06965 +quwm > in the night <03915 +layil > ,

I and some <04592 +m@<at > few <04592 +m@<at > men <00582

+>enowsh > with me ; neither <03808 +lo> > told <05046 +nagad >

I [ any ] man <00120 +>adam > what <04100 +mah > my God <00430

+>elohiym > had put <05414 +nathan > in my heart <03820 +leb >

to do <06213 +<asah > at Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > :

neither <00369 +>ayin > [ was there any ] beast <00929 +b@hemah

> with me , save the beast <00929 +b@hemah > that I rode <07392

+rakab > upon .

02 : 13 And I went <03318 +yatsa> > out by night <03915 +layil >

by the gate <08179 +sha<ar > of the valley <01516 +gay> > , even

before the dragon <08577 +tanniyn > well <02869 +tab > , and to

the dung <00830 +>ashpoth > port <08179 +sha<ar > , and viewed

<07663 +sabar > the walls <02346 +chowmah > of Jerusalem <03389

+Y@ruwshalaim > , which <00834 +>aher > were broken <06555

+parats > down , and the gates <08179 +sha<ar > thereof were

consumed <00398 +>akal > with fire <00784 +>esh > .

02 : 14 Then I went <05674 +<abar > on <00413 +>el > to the gate

<08179 +sha<ar > of the fountain <05869 +<ayin > , and to the

king s <04428 +melek > pool <01295 +b@rekah > : but [ there was

] no <00369 +>ayin > place <04725 +maqowm > for the beast <00929

+b@hemah > [ that was ] under <08478 +tachath > me to pass

<05674 +<abar > .

02 : 15 Then went <05927 +<alah > I up in the night <03915

+layil > by the brook <05158 +nachal > , and viewed <07663

+sabar > the wall <02346 +chowmah > , and turned <07725 +shuwb >

back <07725 +shuwb > , and entered <00935 +bow> > by the gate

<08179 +sha<ar > of the valley <01516 +gay> > , and [ so ]

returned <07725 +shuwb > .

02 : 16 And the rulers <05461 +cagan > knew <03045 +yada< > not

whither <00575 +>an > I went <01980 +halak > , or what <04100

+mah > I did <06213 +<asah > ; neither <03808 +lo> > had I as

yet told <05046 +nagad > [ it ] to the Jews <03064 +Y@huwdiy > ,

nor to the priests <03548 +kohen > , nor to the nobles <02715

+chor > , nor to the rulers <05461 +cagan > , nor to the rest

<03499 +yether > that did <06213 +<asah > the work <04399

+m@la>kah > .

02 : 17 Then said <00559 +>amar > I unto them , Ye see <07200

+ra>ah > the distress <07451 +ra< > that we [ are ] in , how

<00834 +>aher > Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > [ lieth ] waste

<02720 +chareb > , and the gates <08179 +sha<ar > thereof are

burned <03341 +yatsath > with fire <00784 +>esh > : come <03212

+yalak > , and let us build <01129 +banah > up the wall <02346

+chowmah > of Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , that we be no

<03808 +lo> > more <05720 +<Adiyn > a reproach <02781 +cherpah >

02 : 18 Then I told <05046 +nagad > them of the hand <03027 +yad

<02896 +towb > upon me ; as also <00637 +>aph > the king s

<04428 +melek > words <01697 +dabar > that he had spoken <00559

+>amar > unto me

. And they said <00559 +>amar > , Let us rise <06965 +quwm >

and build <01129 +banah > . So they strengthened <02388 +chazaq

work ] .

02 : 19 But when Sanballat <05571 +Canballat > the Horonite

<02772 +Choroniy > , and Tobiah <02900 +Towbiyah > the servant

<05650 +<ebed > , the Ammonite <05984 +<Ammowniy > , and Geshem

<01654 +Geshem > the Arabian <06163 +<Arabiy > , heard <08085

+shama< > [ it ] , they laughed <03932 +la<ag > us to scorn ,

and despised <00959 +bazah > us , and said <00559 +>amar > ,

What <04100 +mah > [ is ] this <02088 +zeh > thing <01697 +dabar

> that ye do <06213 +<asah > ? will ye rebel <04775 +marad >

against <05921 +<al > the king <04428 +melek > ?

02 : 20 Then answered <01697 +dabar > I them , and said <00559

+>amar > unto them , The God <00430 +>elohiym > of heaven <08064

+shamayim > , he will prosper <06743 +tsalach > us ; therefore

we his servants <05650 +<ebed > will arise <06965 +quwm > and

build <01129 +banah > : but ye have no <00369 +>ayin > portion

<02506 +cheleq > , nor right <06666 +ts@daqah > , nor memorial

<02146 +zikrown > , in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .

03 : 01 . Then Eliashib <00475 +>Elyashiyb > the high <01419

+gadowl > priest <03548 +kohen > rose <06965 +quwm > up with his

brethren <00251 +>ach > the priests <03548 +kohen > , and they

builded <01129 +banah > the sheep <06629 +tso>n > gate <08179

+sha<ar > ; they sanctified <06942 +qadash > it , and set <05975

+<amad > up the doors <01817 +deleth > of it ; even unto the

tower <04026 +migdal > of Meah <03968 +Me>ah > they sanctified

<06942 +qadash > it , unto the tower <04026 +migdal > of

Hananeel <02606 +Chanan>el > .

03 : 02 And next unto him builded <01129 +banah > the men <00582

builded <01129 +banah > Zaccur <02139 +Zakkuwr > the son <01121

03 : 03 But the fish <01709 +dag > gate <08179 +sha<ar > did the

sons <01121 +ben > of Hassenaah <05574 +C@nuw>ah > build <01129

+banah > , who <01992 +hem > [ also ] laid the beams <07136

the bars <01280 +b@riyach > thereof .

03 : 04 And next unto them repaired <02388 +chazaq > Meremoth

03 : 05 And next unto them the Tekoites <08621 +T@qow<iy >

repaired <02388 +chazaq > ; but their nobles <00117 +>addiyr >

put <00935 +bow> > not their necks <06677 +tsavva>r > to the

work <05656 +<abodah > of their Lord <00113 +>adown > .

03 : 06 Moreover the old <03465 +yashan > gate <08179 +sha<ar >

repaired <02388 +chazaq > Jehoiada <03111 +Yowyada< > the son

<03027 +yad > wrought <06213 +<asah > in the work <04399

+m@la>kah > , and with the other <00259 +>echad > [ hand ] held

<02388 +chazaq > a weapon <07973 +shelach > .

04 : 18 For the builders <01129 +banah > , every <00376 +>iysh >

one <00376 +>iysh > had his sword <02719 +chereb > girded <00631

<01129 +banah > . And he that sounded <08628 +taqa< > the

trumpet <07782 +showphar > [ was ] by me .

04 : 19 And I said <00559 +>amar > unto the nobles <02715 +chor

+yether > of the people <05971 +<am > , The work <04399

+m@la>kah > [ is ] great <07235 +rabah > and large <07342

<02346 +chowmah > , one far <07350 +rachowq > from another

<00250 +>Ezrachiy > .

04 : 20 In what <00834 +>aher > place <04725 +maqowm > [

therefore ] ye hear <08085 +shama< > the sound <06963 +qowl > of

the trumpet <07782 +showphar > , resort <06908 +qabats > ye

thither <08033 +sham > unto us : our God <00430 +>elohiym >

shall fight <03898 +lacham > for us .

04 : 21 So we laboured <06213 +<asah > in the work <04399

+m@la>kah > : and half <02677 +chetsiy > of them held <02388

+chazaq > the spears <07420 +romach > from the rising <05927

stars <03556 +kowkab > appeared <03318 +yatsa> > .

04 : 22 Likewise <01571 +gam > at the same <01931 +huw> > time

<06256 +<eth > said <00559 +>amar > I unto the people <05971

servant <05650 +<ebed > lodge <03885 +luwn > within <08432

<03915 +layil > they may be a guard <04929 +mishmar > to us ,

and labour <04399 +m@la>kah > on the day <03117 +yowm > .

04 : 23 So neither <00369 +>ayin > I , nor my brethren <00251

followed <00310 +>achar > me , none <00369 +>ayin > of us put

<06584 +pashat > off our clothes <00899 +beged > , [ saving that

] every <00376 +>iysh > one <00376 +>iysh > put <07973 +shelach

05 : 01 . And there was a great <01419 +gadowl > cry <06818

+tsa<aqah > of the people <05971 +<am > and of their wives

<00802 +>ishshah > against <00413 +>el > their brethren <00251

05 : 02 For there were that said <00559 +>amar > , We , our sons

<01121 +ben > , and our daughters <01121 +ben > , [ are ] many

<07227 +rab > : therefore we take <03947 +laqach > up corn

<01715 +dagan > [ for them ] , that we may eat <00398 +>akal > ,

and live <02421 +chayah > .

05 : 03 [ Some ] also there were that said <00559 +>amar > , We

have mortgaged <06148 +<arab > our lands <07704 +sadeh > ,

vineyards <03754 +kerem > , and houses <01004 +bayith > , that

we might buy <03947 +laqach > corn <01715 +dagan > , because of

the dearth <07458 +ra<ab > .

05 : 04 There were also that said <00559 +>amar > , We have

borrowed <03867 +lavah > money <03701 +keceph > for the king s

<04428 +melek > tribute <04060 +middah > , [ and that upon ] our

lands <07704 +sadeh > and vineyards <03754 +kerem > .

05 : 05 Yet now <06258 +<attah > our flesh <01320 +basar > [ is

] as the flesh <01320 +basar > of our brethren <00251 +>ach > ,

our children <01121 +ben > as their children <01121 +ben > : and

, lo <02009 +hinneh > , we bring <03533 +kabash > into bondage

<03533 +kabash > our sons <01121 +ben > and our daughters <01121

+ben > to be servants <05650 +<ebed > , and [ some ] of our

daughters <01121 +ben > are brought <03533 +kabash > unto

bondage <03533 +kabash > [ already ] : neither <00369 +>ayin > [

is it ] in our power <03027 +yad > [ to redeem them ] ; for

other <00312 +>acher > men <00582 +>enowsh > have our lands

<07704 +sadeh > and vineyards <03754 +kerem > .

05 : 06 . And I was very <03966 +m@<od > angry <02734 +charah >

when <00834 +>aher > I heard <08085 +shama< > their cry <02201

+za<aq > and these <00428 +>el - leh > words <01697 +dabar > .

05 : 07 Then I consulted <04427 +malak > with myself , and I

rebuked <07378 +riyb > the nobles <02715 +chor > , and the

rulers <05461 +cagan > , and said <00559 +>amar > unto them , Ye

exact <05378 +nasha> > usury <05383 +nashah > , every <00376

+>iysh > one <00376 +>iysh > of his brother <00251 +>ach > .

And I set <05414 +nathan > a great <01419 +gadowl > assembly

<06952 +q@hillah > against <05921 +<al > them .

05 : 08 And I said <00559 +>amar > unto them , We after <01767

+day > our ability <01767 +day > have redeemed <07069 +qanah >

our brethren <00251 +>ach > the Jews <03064 +Y@huwdiy > , which

were sold <04376 +makar > unto the heathen <01471 +gowy > ; and

will ye even <01571 +gam > sell <04376 +makar > your brethren

<00251 +>ach > ? or shall they be sold <04376 +makar > unto us

? Then held <02790 +charash > they their peace <02790 +charash

<01696 +dabar > ] .

05 : 09 Also I said <00559 +>amar > , It [ is ] not good <02896

+towb > that ye do <06213 +<asah > : ought ye not to walk <03212

+yalak > in the fear <03374 +yir>ah > of our God <00430

+>elohiym > because of the reproach <02781 +cherpah > of the

heathen <01471 +gowy > our enemies <00341 +>oyeb > ?

05 : 10 I likewise <01571 +gam > , [ and ] my brethren <00251

+>ach > , and my servants <05288 +na<ar > , might exact <05383

+nashah > of them money <03701 +keceph > and corn <01715 +dagan

this <02088 +zeh > usury <05383 +nashah > .

05 : 11 Restore <07725 +shuwb > , I pray <04994 +na> > you , to

them , even this day <03117 +yowm > , their lands <07704 +sadeh

+zayith > , and their houses <01004 +bayith > , also the

hundredth <03967 +me>ah > [ part ] of the money <03701 +keceph >

, and of the corn <01715 +dagan > , the wine <08492 +tiyrowsh > ,

and the oil <03323 +yitshar > , that ye exact <05383 +nashah >

of them .

05 : 12 Then said <00559 +>amar > they , We will restore <07725

+shuwb > [ them ] , and will require <01245 +baqash > nothing

<03808 +lo> > of them ; so <03651 +ken > will we do <06213

+<asah > as thou sayest <00559 +>amar > . Then I called <07121

+qara> > the priests <03548 +kohen > , and took an oath <07650

+shaba< > of them , that they should do <06213 +<asah >

according to this <02088 +zeh > promise <01697 +dabar > .

05 : 13 Also <01571 +gam > I shook <05287 +na<ar > my lap <02684

+chotsen > , and said<00559 +>amar > , So <03602 +kakah > God

<00430 +>elohiym > shake <05287 +na<ar > out every man <00376

<03018 +y@giya< > , that performeth <06965 +quwm > not this

<02088 +zeh > promise <01697 +dabar > , even <03602 +kakah >

thus <03602 +kakah > be he shaken <05287 +na<ar > out , and

emptied <07386 +reyq > . And all <03605 +kol > the congregation

<06951 +qahal > said <00559 +>amar > , Amen <00543 +>amen > ,

and praised <01984 +halal > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > . And

the people <05971 +<am > did <06213 +<asah > according to this

<02088 +zeh > promise <01697 +dabar > .

05 : 14 . Moreover <01571 +gam > from the time <03117 +yowm >

that I was appointed <06680 +tsavah > to be their governor

<06346 +pechah > in the land <00776 +>erets > of Judah <03063

+Y@huwdah > , from the twentieth <06242 +<esriym > year <08141

twelve years <08141 +shaneh > , I and my brethren <00251 +>ach >

have not eaten <00398 +>akal > the bread <03899 +lechem > of the

governor <06346 +pechah > .

05 : 15 But the former <07223 +ri>shown > governors <06346

+pechah > that [ had been ] before <06440 +paniym > me were

chargeable <03513 +kabad > unto the people <05971 +<am > , and

had taken <03947 +laqach > of them bread <03899 +lechem > and

wine <03196 +yayin > , beside <00310 +>achar > forty <00705

; yea <01571 +gam > , even their servants <05288 +na<ar > bare

<07980 +shalat > rule <07980 +shalat > over <05921 +<al > the

people <05971 +<am > : but so <03651 +ken > did <06213 +<asah >

not I , because <06440 +paniym > of the fear <03374 +yir>ah > of

God <00430 +>elohiym > .

05 : 16 Yea <01571 +gam > , also <01571 +gam > I continued

<02388 +chazaq > in the work <04399 +m@la>kah > of this <02063

+zo>th > wall <02346 +chowmah > , neither <03808 +lo> > bought

<07069 +qanah > we any land <07704 +sadeh > : and all <03605

+qabats > thither <08033 +sham > unto the work <04399 +m@la>kah

05 : 17 Moreover [ there were ] at <05921 +<al > my table <07979

+shulchan > an hundred <03967 +me>ah > and fifty <02572

+chamishshiym > of the Jews <03064 +Y@huwdiy > and rulers <05461

among <04480 +min > the heathen <01471 +gowy > that [ are ]

about us .

05 : 18 Now [ that ] which <00834 +>aher > was prepared <06213

+<asah > [ for me ] daily [ was ] one <00259 +>echad > ox <07794

+showr > [ and ] six <08337 +shesh > choice <01305 +barar >

sheep <06629 +tso>n > ; also fowls <06833 +tsippowr > were

prepared <06213 +<asah > for me , and once <00996 +beyn > in ten

<06235 +<eser > days <03117 +yowm > store <07235 +rabah > of all

<03605 +kol > sorts of wine <03196 +yayin > : yet for all <05973

+<im > this <02088 +zeh > required <01245 +baqash > not I the

bread <03899 +lechem > of the governor <06346 +pechah > ,

because <03588 +kiy > the bondage <05656 +<abodah > was heavy

<03513 +kabad > upon this <02088 +zeh > people <05971 +<am > .

05 : 19 Think <02142 +zakar > upon me , my God <00430 +>elohiym

that I have done <06213 +<asah > for this <02088 +zeh > people

<05971 +<am > .

06 : 01 . Now it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when <00834

+>aher > Sanballat <05571 +Canballat > , and Tobiah <02900

+Towbiyah > , and Geshem <01654 +Geshem > the Arabian <06163

+banah > the wall <02346 +chowmah > , and [ that ] there was no

<03808 +lo> > breach <06556 +perets > left <03498 +yathar >

therein ; ( though at <05704 +<ad > that time <06256 +<eth > I

had not set <05975 +<amad > up the doors <01817 +deleth > upon

the gates <08179 +sha<ar > ; )

06 : 02 That Sanballat <05571 +Canballat > and Geshem <01654

+Geshem > sent <07971 +shalach > unto me , saying <00559 +>amar

<03162 +yachad > in [ some one of ] the villages <03715 +k@phiyr

they thought <02803 +chashab > to do <06213 +<asah > me mischief

<07451 +ra< > .

06 : 03 And I sent <07971 +shalach > messengers <04397 +mal>ak >

unto them , saying <00559 +>amar > , I [ am ] doing <06213

+<asah > a great <01419 +gadowl > work <04399 +m@la>kah > , so

that I cannot <00369 +>ayin > come <03381 +yarad > down <03381

you ?

06 : 04 Yet they sent <07971 +shalach > unto me four <00702

<01697 +dabar > ; and I answered <07725 +shuwb > them after the

06 : 05 Then sent <07971 +shalach > Sanballat <05571 +Canballat

manner <01697 +dabar > the fifth <02549 +chamiyshiy > time

<06471 +pa<am > with an open <06605 +pathach > letter <00107

06 : 06 Wherein [ was ] written <03789 +kathab > , It is

reported <08085 +shama< > among the heathen <01471 +gowy > , and

Gashmu <01654 +Geshem > saith <00559 +>amar > [ it , that ] thou

<04775 +marad > : for which <03651 +ken > cause thou buildest

<01129 +banah > the wall <02346 +chowmah > , that thou mayest be

their king <04428 +melek > , according to these <00428 +>el -

06 : 07 And thou hast also <01571 +gam > appointed <05975 +<amad

Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > , saying <00559 +>amar > , [

There is ] a king <04428 +melek > in Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > :

and now <06258 +<attah > shall it be reported <08085 +shama< >

to the king <04428 +melek > according to these <00428 +>el - leh

+<attah > therefore , and let us take counsel <03289 +ya<ats >

together <03162 +yachad > .

06 : 08 Then I sent <07971 +shalach > unto him , saying <00559

things <01697 +dabar > done as thou sayest <00559 +>amar > , but

thou feignest <00908 +bada> > them out of thine own heart <03820

06 : 09 For they all <03605 +kol > made us afraid <03372 +yare>

weakened <07503 +raphah > from the work <04399 +m@la>kah > ,

that it be not done <06213 +<asah > . Now <06258 +<attah >

therefore , [ O God ] , strengthen <02388 +chazaq > my hands

<03027 +yad > .

06 : 10 . Afterward I came <00935 +bow> > unto the house <01004

+bayith > of Shemaiah <08098 +Sh@ma<yah > the son <01121 +ben >

of Delaiah <01806 +D@layah > the son <01121 +ben > of Mehetabeel

<04105 +M@heytab>el > , who <01931 +huw> > [ was ] shut <06113

, and let us shut <05462 +cagar > the doors <01817 +deleth > of

the temple <01964 +heykal > : for they will come <00935 +bow> >

to slay <02026 +harag > thee ; yea , in the night <03915 +layil

06 : 11 And I said <00559 +>amar > , Should such <03644 +k@mow >

a man <00376 +>iysh > as I flee <01272 +barach > ? and who

<04310 +miy > [ is there ] , that , [ being ] as I [ am ] ,

would go <00935 +bow> > into <00413 +>el > the temple <01964

+heykal > to save <02425 +chayay > his life <02425 +chayay > ?

I will not go <00935 +bow> > in .

06 : 12 And , lo <02009 +hinneh > , I perceived <05234 +nakar >

that God <00430 +>elohiym > had not sent <07971 +shalach > him ;

but that he pronounced <01696 +dabar > this prophecy <05016

+n@buw>ah > against <05921 +<al > me : for Tobiah <02900

+Towbiyah > and Sanballat <05571 +Canballat > had hired <07936

+sakar > him

06 : 13 Therefore [ was ] he hired <07936 +sakar > , that I

should be afraid <03372 +yare> > , and do <06213 +<asah > so

<03651 +ken > , and sin <02398 +chata> > , and [ that ] they

might have [ matter ] for an evil <07451 +ra< > report <08034

06 : 14 My God <00430 +>elohiym > , think <02142 +zakar > thou

upon Tobiah <02900 +Towbiyah > and Sanballat <05571 +Canballat >

according to these <00428 +>el - leh > their works <04639

<05129 +Now<adyah > , and the rest <03499 +yether > of the

prophets <05030 +nabiy> > , that would have put me in fear

<03372 +yare> >

06 : 15 . So the wall <02346 +chowmah > was finished <07999

06 : 16 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , that when <00834

<06965 +quwm > thy words <01697 +dabar > ; for thou [ art ]

righteous <06662 +tsaddiyq > :

09 : 09 And didst see <07200 +ra>ah > the affliction <06040

09 : 11 And thou didst divide <01234 +baqa< > the sea <03220

09 : 12 Moreover thou leddest <05148 +nachah > them in the day

<03119 +yowmam > by a cloudy <06051 +<anan > pillar <05982

09 : 13 Thou camest <03381 +yarad > down <03381 +yarad > also

upon mount <02022 +har > Sinai <05514 +Ciynay > , and spakest

<01696 +dabar > with them from heaven <08064 +shamayim > , and

09 : 17 And refused <03985 +ma>en > to obey <08085 +shama< > ,

neither <03808 +lo> > were mindful <02142 +zakar > of thy

<06203 +<oreph > , and in their rebellion <04805 +m@riy >

appointed <05414 +nathan > a captain <07218 +ro>sh > to return

slow <00750 +>arek > to anger <00639 +>aph > , and of great

+<azab > them not .

09 : 18 Yea <00637 +>aph > , when <03588 +kiy > they had made

<06213 +<asah > them a molten <04541 +maccekah > calf <05695

thy God <00430 +>elohiym > that brought <05927 +<alah > thee up

out of Egypt <04714 +Mitsrayim > , and had wrought <06213 +<asah

09 : 19 Yet thou in thy manifold <07227 +rab > mercies <07356

+racham > forsookest <05800 +<azab > them not in the wilderness

<04057 +midbar > : the pillar <05982 +<ammuwd > of the cloud

<06051 +<anan > departed <05493 +cuwr > not from them by day

<03119 +yowmam > , to lead <05148 +nachah > them in the way

<00216 +>owr > , and the way <01870 +derek > wherein <00834

09 : 20 Thou gavest <05414 +nathan > also thy good <02896 +towb

withheldest <04513 +mana< > not thy manna <04478 +man > from

their mouth <06310 +peh > , and gavest <05414 +nathan > them

water <04325 +mayim > for their thirst <06772 +tsama> > .

09 : 21 Yea , forty <00705 +>arba<iym > years <08141 +shaneh >

didst thou sustain <03557 +kuwl > them in the wilderness <04057

+midbar > , [ so that ] they lacked <02637 +chacer > nothing

<03808 +lo> > ; their clothes <08008 +salmah > waxed not old

<01086 +balah > , and their feet <07272 +regel > swelled <01216

+batseq > not .

09 : 22 Moreover thou gavest <05414 +nathan > them kingdoms

<04467 +mamlakah > and nations <05971 +<am > , and didst divide

<02505 +chalaq > them into corners <06285 +pe>ah > : so they

possessed <03423 +yarash > the land <00776 +>erets > of Sihon

<05511 +Ciychown > , and the land <00776 +>erets > of the king

<04428 +melek > of Heshbon <02809 +Cheshbown > , and the land

<00776 +>erets > of Og <05747 +<Owg > king <04428 +melek > of

Bashan <01316 +Bashan > .

09 : 23 Their children <01121 +ben > also multipliedst <07235

+rabah > thou as the stars <03556 +kowkab > of heaven <08064

+shamayim > , and broughtest <00935 +bow> > them into <00413

<1> , that they should go <00935 +bow> > in to possess <03423

+yarash > [ it ] .

09 : 24 So the children <01121 +ben > went <00935 +bow> > in and

possessed <03423 +yarash > the land <00776 +>erets > , and thou

subduedst <03665 +kana< > before <06440 +paniym > them the

inhabitants <03427 +yashab > of the land <00776 +>erets > , the

Canaanites <03669 +K@na<aniy > , and gavest <05414 +nathan >

them into their hands <03027 +yad > , with their kings <04428

+melek > , and the people <05971 +<am > of the land <00776

+>erets > , that they might do <06213 +<asah > with them as they

would .

09 : 25 And they took <03920 +lakad > strong <01219 +batsar >

cities <05892 +<iyr > , and a fat <08082 +shamen > land <00127

+>adamah > , and possessed <03423 +yarash > houses <01004

+bayith > full <04392 +male> > of all <03605 +kol > goods <02898

+tuwb > , wells <00953 +bowr > digged <02672 +chatsab > ,

vineyards <03754 +kerem > , and oliveyards <02132 +zayith > ,

and fruit <03978 +ma>akal > trees <06086 +<ets > in abundance

<07230 +rob > : so they did eat <00398 +>akal > , and were

filled <07646 +saba< > , and became <08080 +shaman > fat <08082

+shamen > , and delighted <05727 +<adan > themselves in thy

great <01419 +gadowl > goodness <02898 +tuwb > .

09 : 26 Nevertheless they were disobedient <04784 +marah > , and

rebelled <04775 +marad > against thee , and cast <07993 +shalak

> thy law <08451 +towrah > behind <00310 +>achar > their backs

<01458 +gav > , and slew <02026 +harag > thy prophets <05030

+nabiy> > which <00834 +>aher > testified <05749 +<uwd > against

them to turn <07725 +shuwb > them to thee , and they wrought

<06213 +<asah > great <01419 +gadowl > provocations <05007

+n@>atsah > .

09 : 27 Therefore thou deliveredst <05414 +nathan > them into

the hand <03027 +yad > of their enemies <06862 +tsar > , who

vexed <06887 +tsarar > them : and in the time <06256 +<eth > of

their trouble <06869 +tsarah > , when they cried <06817 +tsa<aq

heaven <08064 +shamayim > ; and according to thy manifold <07227

+rab > mercies <07356 +racham > thou gavest <05414 +nathan >

them saviours <03467 +yasha< > , who saved <03467 +yasha< > them

out of the hand <03027 +yad > of their enemies <06862 +tsar > .

09 : 28 But after they had rest <05117 +nuwach > , they did

<06213 +<asah > evil <07451 +ra< > again <07725 +shuwb > before

<06440 +paniym > thee : therefore leftest <05800 +<azab > thou

them in the hand of their enemies <00341 +>oyeb > , so that they

had the dominion <07287 +radah > over them : yet when they

returned <07725 +shuwb > , and cried <02199 +za<aq > unto thee ,

thou heardest <08085 +shama< > [ them ] from heaven <08064

+shamayim > ; and many <07227 +rab > times <06256 +<eth > didst

thou deliver <05337 +natsal > them according to thy mercies

<07356 +racham > ;

09 : 29 And testifiedst <05749 +<uwd > against them , that thou

mightest bring <07725 +shuwb > them again <07725 +shuwb > unto

thy law <08451 +towrah > : yet they dealt proudly <02102 +zuwd >

, and hearkened <08085 +shama< > not unto thy commandments

<04687 +mitsvah > , but sinned <02398 +chata> > against thy

judgments <04941 +mishpat > , ( which if a man <00120 +>adam >

do <06213 +<asah > , he shall live <02421 +chayah > in them ; )

and withdrew the shoulder <03802 +katheph > , and hardened

<07185 +qashah > their neck <06203 +<oreph > , and would not

hear <08085 +shama< > .

09 : 30 Yet many <07227 +rab > years <08141 +shaneh > didst thou

forbear <04900 +mashak > them , and testifiedst <05749 +<uwd >

against them by thy spirit <07307 +ruwach > in thy prophets

<05030 +nabiy> > : yet would they not give ear <00238 +>azan > :

therefore gavest <05414 +nathan > thou them into the hand <03027

+yad > of the people <05971 +<am > of the lands <00776 +>erets >

09 : 31 Nevertheless for thy great <07227 +rab > mercies <07356

+racham > sake thou didst not utterly consume <03615 +kalah >

them , nor <03808 +lo> > forsake <05800 +<azab > them ; for thou

[ art ] a gracious <02587 +channuwn > and merciful <07349

+rachuwm > God <00410 +>el > .

09 : 32 Now <06258 +<attah > therefore , our God <00430

+>elohiym > , the great <01419 +gadowl > , the mighty <01368

+gibbowr > , and the terrible <03372 +yare> > God <00410 +>el > ,

who keepest <08104 +shamar > covenant <01285 +b@riyth > and

mercy <02617 +checed > , let not all <03605 +kol > the trouble

<08513 +t@la>ah > seem <04591 +ma<at > little <04591 +ma<at >

before <06440 +paniym > thee , that hath come <04672 +matsa> >

upon us , on our kings <04428 +melek > , on our princes <08269

09 : 33 Howbeit thou [ art ] just <06662 +tsaddiyq > in all

<03605 +kol > that is brought <00935 +bow> > upon us ; for thou

hast done <06213 +<asah > right <00571 +>emeth > , but we have

done wickedly <07561 +rasha< > :

09 : 34 Neither <03808 +lo> > have our kings <04428 +melek > ,

our princes <08269 +sar > , our priests <03548 +kohen > , nor

<03808 +lo> > our fathers <1> , kept <06213 +<asah > thy law

<08451 +towrah > , nor <03808 +lo> > hearkened <07181 +qashab >

unto thy commandments <04687 +mitsvah > and thy testimonies

<5715> , wherewith <00834 +>aher > thou didst testify <05749

+<uwd > against them .

09 : 35 For they have not served <05647 +<abad > thee in their

kingdom <04438 +malkuwth > , and in thy great <07227 +rab >

goodness <02898 +tuwb > that thou gavest <05414 +nathan > them ,

and in the large <07342 +rachab > and fat <08082 +shamen > land

<00776 +>erets > which <00834 +>aher > thou gavest <05414

turned <07725 +shuwb > they from their wicked <07451 +ra< >

works <04611 +ma<alal > .

09 : 36 Behold <02009 +hinneh > , we [ are ] servants <05650

09 : 37 And it yieldeth <07235 +rabah > much <07235 +rabah >

in the book <05612 +cepher > of Moses <04872 +Mosheh > in the

audience <00241 +>ozen > of the people <05971 +<am > ; and

therein was found <04672 +matsa> > written <03789 +kathab > ,

that the Ammonite <05984 +<Ammowniy > and the Moabite <04125

+Mow>abiy > should not come <00935 +bow> > into the congregation

<06951 +qahal > of God <00430 +>elohiym > for ever <05769

+<owlam > ;

13 : 02 Because <03588 +kiy > they met <06923 +qadam > not the

children <01121 +ben > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > with bread

<03899 +lechem > and with water <04325 +mayim > , but hired

<07936 +sakar > Balaam <01109 +Bil<am > against <05921 +<al >

them , that he should curse <07043 +qalal > them : howbeit our

God <00430 +>elohiym > turned <02015 +haphak > the curse <07045

+q@lalah > into a blessing <01293 +B@rakah > .

13 : 03 Now it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when they had

heard <08085 +shama< > the law <08451 +towrah > , that they

separated <00914 +badal > from Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > all

<03605 +kol > the mixed <06154 +<ereb > multitude <06154 +<ereb

13 : 04 And before <06440 +paniym > this <02088 +zeh > ,

Eliashib <00475 +>Elyashiyb > the priest <03548 +kohen > ,

having the oversight <05414 +nathan > of the chamber <03957

+lishkah > of the house <01004 +bayith > of our God <00430

+Towbiyah > :

13 : 05 And he had prepared <06213 +<asah > for him a great

<01419 +gadowl > chamber <03957 +lishkah > , where <08033 +sham

+shiyr > , and the porters <07778 +show<er > ; and the offerings

<04503 +minchah > of the priests <03548 +kohen > .

13 : 06 But in all <03605 +kol > this <02088 +zeh > [ time ] was

not I at Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > : for in the two

<08147 +sh@nayim > and thirtieth <07970 +sh@lowshiym > year

<08141 +shaneh > of Artaxerxes <00783 +>Artachshashta> > king

<04428 +melek > of Babylon <00894 +Babel > came <00935 +bow> > I

unto the king <04428 +melek > , and after <07093 +qets > certain

days <03117 +yowm > obtained <07592 +sha>al > I leave <07592

+sha>al > of the king <04428 +melek > :

13 : 07 And I came <00935 +bow> > to Jerusalem <03389

+Y@ruwshalaim > , and understood <00995 +biyn > of the evil

<07451 +ra< > that Eliashib <00475 +>Elyashiyb > did <06213

+<asah > for Tobiah <02900 +Towbiyah > , in preparing <06213

+<asah > him a chamber <05393 +nishkah > in the courts <02691

+chatser > of the house <01004 +bayith > of God <00430 +>elohiym

13 : 08 And it grieved <07489 +ra<a< > me sore <03966 +m@<od > :

therefore I cast <07903 +sh@kobeth > forth all <03605 +kol > the

household <01004 +bayith > stuff <03627 +k@liy > of Tobiah

<02900 +Towbiyah > out of the chamber <03957 +lishkah > .

13 : 09 Then I commanded <00559 +>amar > , and they cleansed

<02891 +taher > the chambers <03957 +lishkah > : and thither

<08033 +sham > brought <07725 +shuwb > I again <07725 +shuwb >

the vessels <03627 +k@liy > of the house <01004 +bayith > of God

<00430 +>elohiym > , with the meat offering <04503 +minchah >

and the frankincense <03828 +l@bownah > .

13 : 10 . And I perceived <03045 +yada< > that the portions

<04521 +m@nath > of the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > had not been

given <05414 +nathan > [ them ] : for the Levites <03881

+Leviyiy > and the singers <07891 +shiyr > , that did <06213

+<asah > the work <04399 +m@la>kah > , were fled <01272 +barach

+sadeh > .

13 : 11 Then contended <07378 +riyb > I with the rulers <05461

+cagan > , and said <00559 +>amar > , Why <04069 +madduwa< > is

the house <01004 +bayith > of God <00430 +>elohiym > forsaken

<05800 +<azab > ? And I gathered <06908 +qabats > them together

, and set <05975 +<amad > them in their place <05977 +<omed > .

13 : 12 Then brought <00935 +bow> > all <03605 +kol > Judah

<03063 +Y@huwdah > the tithe <04643 +ma<aser > of the corn

<01715 +dagan > and the new <08492 +tiyrowsh > wine <08492

+tiyrowsh > and the oil <03323 +yitshar > unto the treasuries

<00214 +>owtsar > .

13 : 13 And I made treasurers <00686 +>atsar > over <05921 +<al

scribe <05608 +caphar > , and of the Levites <03881 +Leviyiy > ,

Pedaiah <06305 +P@dayah > : and next to them [ was ] Hanan

<02605 +Chanan > the son <01121 +ben > of Zaccur <02139 +Zakkuwr

they were counted <02803 +chashab > faithful <00539 +>aman > ,

and their office [ was ] to distribute <02505 +chalaq > unto

their brethren <00251 +>ach > .

13 : 14 Remember <02142 +zakar > me , O my God <00430 +>elohiym

<04229 +machah > not out my good <02617 +checed > deeds that I

God <00430 +>elohiym > , and for the offices <04929 +mishmar >

thereof .

13 : 15 . In those <01992 +hem > days <03117 +yowm > saw <07200

<03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > on the sabbath <07676 +shabbath > day

<03117 +yowm > : and I testified <05749 +<uwd > [ against them ]

in the day <03117 +yowm > wherein they sold <04376 +makar >

victuals <06718 +tsayid > .

13 : 16 There dwelt <03427 +yashab > men <00582 +>enowsh > of

Tyre <06876 +Tsoriy > also therein , which brought <00935 +bow>

+Y@huwdah > , and in Jerusalem <03389 +Y@ruwshalaim > .

13 : 17 Then I contended <07378 +riyb > with the nobles <02715

+chor > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , and said <00559 +>amar >

unto them , What <04100 +mah > evil <07451 +ra< > thing <01697

and profane <02490 +chalal > the sabbath <07676 +shabbath > day

<03117 +yowm > ?

13 : 18 Did <06213 +<asah > not your fathers <1> thus <03541

+yacaph > wrath <02740 +charown > upon Israel <03478 +Yisra>el >

by profaning <02490 +chalal > the sabbath <07676 +shabbath > .

13 : 19 And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , that when <00834

+Y@ruwshalaim > began <06751 +tsalal > to be dark <06751 +tsalal

commanded <00559 +>amar > that the gates <01817 +deleth > should

should not be opened <06605 +pathach > till <05704 +<ad > after

<00310 +>achar > the sabbath <07676 +shabbath > : and [ some ]

of my servants <05288 +na<ar > set <05975 +<amad > I at <05921

13 : 20 So the merchants <07402 +rakal > and sellers <04376

13 : 21 Then I testified <05749 +<uwd > against them , and said

<00559 +>amar > untothem , Why <04069 +madduwa< > lodge <03885

13 : 22 And I commanded <00559 +>amar > the Levites <03881

Remember <02142 +zakar > me , O my God <00430 +>elohiym > , [

13 : 23 . In those <01992 +hem > days <03117 +yowm > also

<01571 +gam > saw <07200 +ra>ah > I Jews <03064 +Y@huwdiy > [

Ashdod <00795 +>Ashdowd > , of Ammon <05983 +<Ammown > , [ and ]

of Moab <04125 +Mow>abiy > :

13 : 24 And their children <01121 +ben > spake <01696 +dabar >

half <02677 +chetsiy > in the speech <03066 +Y@huwdiyth > of

according to the language <03956 +lashown > of each people

13 : 25 And I contended <07378 +riyb > with them , and cursed

<07043 +qalal > them , and smote <05221 +nakah > certain <00582

and made them swear <07650 +shaba< > by God <00430 +>elohiym > ,

[ saying ] , Ye shall not give <05414 +nathan > your daughters

take <05375 +nasa> > their daughters <01121 +ben > unto your

13 : 26 Did not Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > king <04428 +melek >

of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > sin <02398 +chata> > by these

things ? yet among many <07227 +rab > nations <01471 +gowy > was

13 : 27 Shall we then hearken <08085 +shama< > unto you to do
