1 Kings 6:37

6:37

In the fourth
<07243>

year
<08141>

was the foundation
<03245> (0)

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

laid
<03245> (8795)_,

in the month
<03391>

Zif
<02099>_:

1 Kings 15:1-34

15:1

Now in the eighteenth
<08083> <06240>

year
<08141>

of king
<04428>

Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>

reigned
<04427> (8804)

Abijam
<038>

over Judah
<03063>_.

15:2

Three
<07969>

years
<08141>

reigned
<04427> (8804)

he in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Maachah
<04601>_,

the daughter
<01323>

of Abishalom
<053>_.

{Maachah...: also called, Michaiah the daughter of Uriel} {Abishalom: also called, Absalom}

15:3

And he walked
<03212> (8799)

in all the sins
<02403>

of his father
<01>_,

which he had done
<06213> (8804)

before
<06440>

him: and his heart
<03824>

was not perfect
<08003>

with the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>_,

as the heart
<03824>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_.

15:4

Nevertheless for David's
<01732>

sake did the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>

give
<05414> (8804)

him a lamp
<05216>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

to set up
<06965> (8687)

his son
<01121>

after
<0310>

him, and to establish
<05975> (8687)

Jerusalem
<03389>_:

{lamp: or, candle}

15:5

Because David
<01732>

did
<06213> (8804)

[that which was] right
<03477>

in the eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and turned not aside
<05493> (8804)

from any [thing] that he commanded
<06680> (8765)

him all the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_,

save only in the matter
<01697>

of Uriah
<0223>

the Hittite
<02850>_.

15:6

And there was war
<04421>

between Rehoboam
<07346>

and Jeroboam
<03379>

all the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_.

15:7

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Abijam
<038>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_?

And there was war
<04421>

between Abijam
<038>

and Jeroboam
<03379>_.

15:8

And Abijam
<038>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_;

and they buried
<06912> (8799)

him in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_:

and Asa
<0609>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

15:9

And in the twentieth
<06242>

year
<08141>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

reigned
<04427> (8804)

Asa
<0609>

over Judah
<03063>_.

15:10

And forty
<0705>

and one
<0259>

years
<08141>

reigned
<04427> (8804)

he in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Maachah
<04601>_,

the daughter
<01323>

of Abishalom
<053>_.

{mother's: that is, grandmother's}

15:11

And Asa
<0609>

did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] right
<03477>

in the eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

as [did] David
<01732>

his father
<01>_.

15:12

And he took away
<05674> (8686)

the sodomites
<06945>

out of the land
<0776>_,

and removed
<05493> (8686)

all the idols
<01544>

that his fathers
<01>

had made
<06213> (8804)_.

15:13

And also Maachah
<04601>

his mother
<0517>_,

even her he removed
<05493> (8686)

from [being] queen
<01377>_,

because she had made
<06213> (8804)

an idol
<04656>

in a grove
<0842>_;

and Asa
<0609>

destroyed
<03772> (8799)

her idol
<04656>_,

and burnt
<08313> (8799)

[it] by the brook
<05158>

Kidron
<06939>_.

{destroyed: Heb. cut off}

15:14

But the high places
<01116>

were not removed
<05493> (8804)_:

nevertheless Asa's
<0609>

heart
<03824>

was perfect
<08003>

with the LORD
<03068>

all his days
<03117>_.

15:15

And he brought
<0935> (8686)

in the things
<06944> (0)

which his father
<01>

had dedicated
<06944>_,

and the things which himself had dedicated
<06944>_,

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

silver
<03701>_,

and gold
<02091>_,

and vessels
<03627>_.

{things: Heb. holy}

15:16

And there was war
<04421>

between Asa
<0609>

and Baasha
<01201>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

all their days
<03117>_.

15:17

And Baasha
<01201>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

went up
<05927> (8799)

against Judah
<03063>_,

and built
<01129> (8799)

Ramah
<07414>_,

that he might not suffer
<05414> (8800)

any to go out
<03318> (8802)

or come in
<0935> (8802)

to Asa
<0609>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_.

15:18

Then Asa
<0609>

took
<03947> (8799)

all the silver
<03701>

and the gold
<02091>

[that were] left
<03498> (8737)

in the treasures
<0214>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and the treasures
<0214>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

and delivered
<05414> (8799)

them into the hand
<03027>

of his servants
<05650>_:

and king
<04428>

Asa
<0609>

sent
<07971> (8799)

them to Benhadad
<01130>_,

the son
<01121>

of Tabrimon
<02886>_,

the son
<01121>

of Hezion
<02383>_,

king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>_,

that dwelt
<03427> (8802)

at Damascus
<01834>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

15:19

[There is] a league
<01285>

between me and thee, [and] between my father
<01>

and thy father
<01>_:

behold, I have sent
<07971> (8804)

unto thee a present
<07810>

of silver
<03701>

and gold
<02091>_;

come
<03212> (8798)

and break
<06565> (8685)

thy league
<01285>

with Baasha
<01201>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

that he may depart
<05927> (8799)

from me. {depart: Heb. go up}

15:20

So Benhadad
<01130>

hearkened
<08085> (8799)

unto king
<04428>

Asa
<0609>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

the captains
<08269>

of the hosts
<02428>

which he had against the cities
<05892>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

Ijon
<05859>_,

and Dan
<01835>_,

and Abelbethmaachah
<062>_,

and all Cinneroth
<03672>_,

with all the land
<0776>

of Naphtali
<05321>_.

15:21

And it came to pass, when Baasha
<01201>

heard
<08085> (8800)

[thereof], that he left off
<02308> (8799)

building
<01129> (8800)

of Ramah
<07414>_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in Tirzah
<08656>_.

15:22

Then king
<04428>

Asa
<0609>

made a proclamation
<08085> (8689)

throughout all Judah
<03063>_;

none [was] exempted
<05355>_:

and they took
<05375> (8799)

away the stones
<068>

of Ramah
<07414>_,

and the timber
<06086>

thereof, wherewith Baasha
<01201>

had builded
<01129> (8804)_;

and king
<04428>

Asa
<0609>

built
<01129> (8799)

with them Geba
<01387>

of Benjamin
<01144>_,

and Mizpah
<04709>_.

{exempted: Heb. free}

15:23

The rest
<03499>

of all the acts
<01697>

of Asa
<0609>_,

and all his might
<01369>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

and the cities
<05892>

which he built
<01129> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_?

Nevertheless in the time
<06256>

of his old age
<02209>

he was diseased
<02470> (8804)

in his feet
<07272>_.

15:24

And Asa
<0609>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

with his fathers
<01>

in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_:

and Jehoshaphat
<03092>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead. {Jehoshaphat: Gr. Josaphat}

15:25

And Nadab
<05070>

the son
<01121>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

began to reign
<04427> (8804)

over Israel
<03478>

in the second
<08147>

year
<08141>

of Asa
<0609>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and reigned
<04427> (8799)

over Israel
<03478>

two
<08147>

years
<08141>_.

{began...: Heb. reigned}

15:26

And he did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and walked
<03212> (8799)

in the way
<01870>

of his father
<01>_,

and in his sin
<02403>

wherewith he made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

15:27

And Baasha
<01201>

the son
<01121>

of Ahijah
<0281>_,

of the house
<01004>

of Issachar
<03485>_,

conspired
<07194> (8799)

against him; and Baasha
<01201>

smote
<05221> (8686)

him at Gibbethon
<01405>_,

which [belonged] to the Philistines
<06430>_;

for Nadab
<05070>

and all Israel
<03478>

laid siege
<06696> (8802)

to Gibbethon
<01405>_.

15:28

Even in the third
<07969>

year
<08141>

of Asa
<0609>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

did Baasha
<01201>

slay
<04191> (8686)

him, and reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

15:29

And it came to pass, when he reigned
<04427> (8800)_,

[that] he smote
<05221> (8689)

all the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_;

he left
<07604> (8689)

not to Jeroboam
<03379>

any that breathed
<05397>_,

until he had destroyed
<08045> (8689)

him, according unto the saying
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which he spake
<01696> (8765)

by
<03027>

his servant
<05650>

Ahijah
<0281>

the Shilonite
<07888>_:

15:30

Because of the sins
<02403>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

which he sinned
<02398> (8804)_,

and which he made Israel
<03478>

sin
<02398> (8689)_,

by his provocation
<03708>

wherewith he provoked the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

to anger
<03707> (8689)_.

15:31

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Nadab
<05070>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_?

15:32

And there was war
<04421>

between Asa
<0609>

and Baasha
<01201>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

all their days
<03117>_.

15:33

In the third
<07969>

year
<08141>

of Asa
<0609>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

began Baasha
<01201>

the son
<01121>

of Ahijah
<0281>

to reign
<04427> (8804)

over all Israel
<03478>

in Tirzah
<08656>_,

twenty
<06242>

and four
<0702>

years
<08141>_.

15:34

And he did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and walked
<03212> (8799)

in the way
<01870>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_,

and in his sin
<02403>

wherewith he made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

1 Kings 21:1-29

21:1

And it came to pass after
<0310>

these things
<01697>_,

[that] Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>

had a vineyard
<03754>_,

which [was] in Jezreel
<03157>_,

hard by
<0681>

the palace
<01964>

of Ahab
<0256>

king
<04428>

of Samaria
<08111>_.

21:2

And Ahab
<0256>

spake
<01696> (8762)

unto Naboth
<05022>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Give
<05414> (8798)

me thy vineyard
<03754>_,

that I may have it for a garden
<01588>

of herbs
<03419>_,

because it [is] near
<07138>

unto
<0681>

my house
<01004>_:

and I will give
<05414> (8799)

thee for it a better
<02896>

vineyard
<03754>

than it; [or], if it seem good
<02896>

to thee
<05869>_,

I will give
<05414> (8799)

thee the worth
<04242>

of it in money
<03701>_.

{seem...: Heb. be good in thine eyes}

21:3

And Naboth
<05022>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Ahab
<0256>_,

The LORD
<03068>

forbid
<02486>

it me, that I should give
<05414> (8800)

the inheritance
<05159>

of my fathers
<01>

unto thee.

21:4

And Ahab
<0256>

came
<0935> (8799)

into his house
<01004>

heavy
<05620>

and displeased
<02198>

because of the word
<01697>

which Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>

had spoken
<01696> (8765)

to him: for he had said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not give
<05414> (8799)

thee the inheritance
<05159>

of my fathers
<01>_.

And he laid him down
<07901> (8799)

upon his bed
<04296>_,

and turned away
<05437> (8686)

his face
<06440>_,

and would eat
<0398> (8804)

no bread
<03899>_.

21:5

But Jezebel
<0348>

his wife
<0802>

came
<0935> (8799)

to him, and said
<01696> (8762)

unto him, Why is thy spirit
<07307>

so sad
<05620>_,

that thou eatest
<0398> (8802)

no bread
<03899>_?

21:6

And he said
<01696> (8762)

unto her, Because I spake
<01696> (8762)

unto Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Give
<05414> (8798)

me thy vineyard
<03754>

for money
<03701>_;

or else, if it please
<02655>

thee, I will give
<05414> (8799)

thee [another] vineyard
<03754>

for it: and he answered
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not give
<05414> (8799)

thee my vineyard
<03754>_.

21:7

And Jezebel
<0348>

his wife
<0802>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Dost thou now govern
<06213> (8799)

the kingdom
<04410>

of Israel
<03478>_?

arise
<06965> (8798)_,

[and] eat
<0398> (8798)

bread
<03899>_,

and let thine heart
<03820>

be merry
<03190> (8799)_:

I will give
<05414> (8799)

thee the vineyard
<03754>

of Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_.

21:8

So she wrote
<03789> (8799)

letters
<05612>

in Ahab's
<0256>

name
<08034>_,

and sealed
<02856> (8799)

[them] with his seal
<02368>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

the letters
<05612>

unto the elders
<02205>

and to the nobles
<02715>

that [were] in his city
<05892>_,

dwelling
<03427> (8802)

with Naboth
<05022>_.

21:9

And she wrote
<03789> (8799)

in the letters
<05612>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Proclaim
<07121> (8798)

a fast
<06685>_,

and set
<03427> (8685)

Naboth
<05022>

on high
<07218>

among the people
<05971>_:

{on high...: Heb. in the top of the people}

21:10

And set
<03427> (8685)

two
<08147>

men
<0582>_,

sons
<01121>

of Belial
<01100>_,

before him, to bear witness
<05749> (8686)

against him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou didst blaspheme
<01288> (8765)

God
<0430>

and the king
<04428>_.

And [then] carry him out
<03318> (8689)_,

and stone
<05619> (8798)

him, that he may die
<04191> (8799)_.

21:11

And the men
<0582>

of his city
<05892>_,

[even] the elders
<02205>

and the nobles
<02715>

who were the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

in his city
<05892>_,

did
<06213> (8799)

as Jezebel
<0348>

had sent
<07971> (8804)

unto them, [and] as it [was] written
<03789> (8803)

in the letters
<05612>

which she had sent
<07971> (8804)

unto them.

21:12

They proclaimed
<07121> (8804)

a fast
<06685>_,

and set
<03427> (8689)

Naboth
<05022>

on high
<07218>

among the people
<05971>_.

21:13

And there came
<0935> (8799)

in two
<08147>

men
<0582>_,

children
<01121>

of Belial
<01100>_,

and sat
<03427> (8799)

before him: and the men
<0582>

of Belial
<01100>

witnessed
<05749> (8686)

against him, [even] against Naboth
<05022>_,

in the presence of the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Naboth
<05022>

did blaspheme
<01288> (8765)

God
<0430>

and the king
<04428>_.

Then they carried him forth
<03318> (8686)

out
<02351>

of the city
<05892>_,

and stoned
<05619> (8799)

him with stones
<068>_,

that he died
<04191> (8799)_.

21:14

Then they sent
<07971> (8799)

to Jezebel
<0348>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Naboth
<05022>

is stoned
<05619> (8795)_,

and is dead
<04191> (8799)_.

21:15

And it came to pass, when Jezebel
<0348>

heard
<08085> (8800)

that Naboth
<05022>

was stoned
<05619> (8795)_,

and was dead
<04191> (8799)_,

that Jezebel
<0348>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Ahab
<0256>_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

take possession
<03423> (8798)

of the vineyard
<03754>

of Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_,

which he refused
<03985> (8765)

to give
<05414> (8800)

thee for money
<03701>_:

for Naboth
<05022>

is not alive
<02416>_,

but dead
<04191> (8804)_.

21:16

And it came to pass, when Ahab
<0256>

heard
<08085> (8800)

that Naboth
<05022>

was dead
<04191> (8804)_,

that Ahab
<0256>

rose up
<06965> (8799)

to go down
<03381> (8800)

to the vineyard
<03754>

of Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_,

to take possession
<03423> (8800)

of it.

21:17

And the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came to Elijah
<0452>

the Tishbite
<08664>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

21:18

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go down
<03381> (8798)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

Ahab
<0256>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

which [is] in Samaria
<08111>_:

behold, [he is] in the vineyard
<03754>

of Naboth
<05022>_,

whither he is gone down
<03381> (8804)

to possess
<03423> (8800)

it.

21:19

And thou shalt speak
<01696> (8765)

unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Hast thou killed
<07523> (8804)_,

and also taken possession
<03423> (8804)_?

And thou shalt speak
<01696> (8765)

unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

In the place
<04725>

where dogs
<03611>

licked
<03952> (8804)

the blood
<01818>

of Naboth
<05022>

shall dogs
<03611>

lick
<03952> (8799)

thy blood
<01818>_,

even thine.

21:20

And Ahab
<0256>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Elijah
<0452>_,

Hast thou found
<04672> (8804)

me, O mine enemy
<0341> (8802)_?

And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,

I have found
<04672> (8804)

[thee]: because thou hast sold
<04376> (8692)

thyself to work
<06213> (8800)

evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

21:21

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

evil
<07451>

upon thee, and will take away
<01197> (8765)

thy posterity
<0310>_,

and will cut off
<03772> (8689)

from Ahab
<0256>

him that pisseth
<08366> (8688)

against the wall
<07023>_,

and him that is shut up
<06113> (8803)

and left
<05800> (8803)

in Israel
<03478>_,

21:22

And will make
<05414> (8804)

thine house
<01004>

like the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>_,

and like the house
<01004>

of Baasha
<01201>

the son
<01121>

of Ahijah
<0281>_,

for the provocation
<03708>

wherewith thou hast provoked [me] to anger
<03707> (8689)_,

and made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8686)_.

21:23

And of Jezebel
<0348>

also spake
<01696> (8765)

the LORD
<03068>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The dogs
<03611>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)

Jezebel
<0348>

by the wall
<02426>

of Jezreel
<03157>_.

{wall: or, ditch}

21:24

Him that dieth
<04191> (8801)

of Ahab
<0256>

in the city
<05892>

the dogs
<03611>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)_;

and him that dieth
<04191> (8801)

in the field
<07704>

shall the fowls
<05775>

of the air
<08064>

eat
<0398> (8799)_.

21:25

But there was none like unto Ahab
<0256>_,

which did sell
<04376> (8694)

himself to work
<06213> (8800)

wickedness
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

whom Jezebel
<0348>

his wife
<0802>

stirred up
<05496> (8689)_.

{stirred...: or, incited}

21:26

And he did very
<03966>

abominably
<08581> (8686)

in following
<03212> (8800) <0310>

idols
<01544>_,

according to all [things] as did
<06213> (8804)

the Amorites
<0567>_,

whom the LORD
<03068>

cast out
<03423> (8689)

before
<06440>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

21:27

And it came to pass, when Ahab
<0256>

heard
<08085> (8800)

those words
<01697>_,

that he rent
<07167> (8799)

his clothes
<0899>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

sackcloth
<08242>

upon his flesh
<01320>_,

and fasted
<06684> (8799)_,

and lay
<07901> (8799)

in sackcloth
<08242>_,

and went
<01980> (8762)

softly
<0328>_.

21:28

And the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came to Elijah
<0452>

the Tishbite
<08664>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

21:29

Seest
<07200> (8804)

thou how Ahab
<0256>

humbleth
<03665> (8738)

himself before
<06440>

me? because
<03282>

he humbleth
<03665> (8738)

himself before
<06440>

me, I will not bring
<0935> (8686)

the evil
<07451>

in his days
<03117>_:

[but] in his son's
<01121>

days
<03117>

will I bring
<0935> (8686)

the evil
<07451>

upon his house
<01004>_.
