2 Chronicles 15:7

15:7

Be ye strong
<02388> (8798)

therefore, and let not your hands
<03027>

be weak
<07503> (8799)_:

for your work
<06468>

shall be
<03426>

rewarded
<07939>_.

Ezra 4:1-24

4:1

Now when the adversaries
<06862>

of Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>

heard
<08085> (8799)

that the children
<01121>

of the captivity
<01473>

builded
<01129> (8802)

the temple
<01964>

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

{the children...: Heb. the sons of the transportation}

4:2

Then they came
<05066> (8799)

to Zerubbabel
<02216>_,

and to the chief
<07218>

of the fathers
<01>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Let us build
<01129> (8799)

with you: for we seek
<01875> (8799)

your God
<0430>_,

as ye [do]; and we do sacrifice
<02076> (8802)

unto him since the days
<03117>

of Esarhaddon
<0634>

king
<04428>

of Assur
<0804>_,

which brought us up hither
<05927> (8688)_.

4:3

But Zerubbabel
<02216>_,

and Jeshua
<03442>_,

and the rest
<07605>

of the chief
<07218>

of the fathers
<01>

of Israel
<03478>_,

said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build
<01129> (8800)

an house
<01004>

unto our God
<0430>_;

but we ourselves together
<03162>

will build
<01129> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

as king
<04428>

Cyrus
<03566>

the king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>

hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

us.

4:4

Then the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>

weakened
<07503> (8764)

the hands
<03027>

of the people
<05971>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and troubled
<0926> (8764) (8675) <01089> (8764)

them in building
<01129> (8800)_,

4:5

And hired
<07936> (8802)

counsellors
<03289> (8802)

against them, to frustrate
<06565> (8687)

their purpose
<06098>_,

all the days
<03117>

of Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_,

even until the reign
<04438>

of Darius
<01867>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_.

4:6

And in the reign
<04438>

of Ahasuerus
<0325>_,

in the beginning
<08462>

of his reign
<04438>_,

wrote
<03789> (8804)

they [unto him] an accusation
<07855>

against the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>_.

{Ahasuerus: Heb. Ahashverosh}

4:7

And in the days
<03117>

of Artaxerxes
<0783>

wrote
<03789> (8804)

Bishlam
<01312>_,

Mithredath
<04990>_,

Tabeel
<02870>_,

and the rest
<07605>

of their companions
<03674>_,

unto Artaxerxes
<0783>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_;

and the writing
<03791>

of the letter
<05406>

[was] written
<03789> (8803)

in the Syrian tongue
<0762>_,

and interpreted
<08638> (8794)

in the Syrian tongue
<0762>_.

{Bishlam: or, in peace} {companions: Heb. societies}

4:8

Rehum
<07348>

the chancellor
<01169> <02942>

and Shimshai
<08124>

the scribe
<05613>

wrote
<03790> (8754)

a
<02298>

letter
<0104>

against
<05922>

Jerusalem
<03390>

to Artaxerxes
<0783>

the king
<04430>

in this sort
<03660>_:

{scribe: or, secretary}

4:9

Then
<0116>

[wrote] Rehum
<07348>

the chancellor
<01169> <02942>_,

and Shimshai
<08124>

the scribe
<05613>_,

and the rest
<07606>

of their companions
<03675>_;

the Dinaites
<01784>_,

the Apharsathchites
<0671>_,

the Tarpelites
<02967>_,

the Apharsites
<0670>_,

<07801>_,

the Dehavites
<01723>_,

[and] the Elamites
<05962>_,

{companions: Chaldee, societies}

4:10

And the rest
<07606>

of the nations
<0524>

whom
<01768>

the great
<07229>

and noble
<03358>

Asnappar
<0620>

brought over
<01541> (8684)_,

and set
<03488> (8684) <01994>

in the cities
<07149>

of Samaria
<08115>_,

and the rest
<07606>

[that are] on this side
<05675>

the river
<05103>_,

and at such a time
<03706>_.

{at such...: Chaldee, Cheeneth}

4:11

This
<01836>

[is] the copy
<06573>

of the letter
<0104>

that
<01768>

they sent
<07972> (8754)

unto him
<05922>_,

[even] unto Artaxerxes
<0783>

the king
<04430>_;

Thy servants
<05649>

the men
<0606>

on this side
<05675>

the river
<05103>_,

and at such a time
<03706>_.

4:12

Be it
<01934> (8748)

known
<03046> (8752)

unto the king
<04430>_,

that the Jews
<03062>

which
<01768>

came up
<05559> (8760)

from
<04481>

thee
<03890>

to us
<05922>

are come
<0858> (8754)

unto Jerusalem
<03390>_,

building
<01124> (8750)

the rebellious
<04779>

and the bad
<0873>

city
<07149>_,

and have set up
<03635> (8806) (8675) <03635> (8720)

the walls
<07792>

[thereof], and joined
<02338> (8681)

the foundations
<0787>_.

{set up: or, finished} {joined: Chaldee, sewed together}

4:13

Be it known
<03046> (8752) <01934> (8748)

now
<03705>

unto the king
<04430>_,

that, if
<02006>

this
<01791>

city
<07149>

be builded
<01124> (8731)_,

and the walls
<07792>

set up
<03635> (8720)

[again, then] will they not
<03809>

pay
<05415> (8748)

toll
<04061>_,

tribute
<01093>_,

and custom
<01983>_,

and [so] thou shalt endamage
<05142> (8681)

the revenue
<0674>

of the kings
<04430>_.

{pay: Chaldee, give} {revenue: or, strength}

4:14

Now
<03705>

because
<06903> <03606>

we have
<01768>

maintenance
<04415> (8754) <04416>

from [the king's] palace
<01965>_,

and it was not
<03809>

meet
<0749> (8750)

for us to see
<02370> (8749)

the king's
<04430>

dishonour
<06173>_,

therefore
<05922> <01836>

have we sent
<07972> (8754)

and certified
<03046> (8684)

the king
<04430>_;

{we have...: Chaldee, we are salted with the salt of the palace}

4:15

That search
<01240> (8741)

may be made in the book
<05609>

of the records
<01799>

of thy fathers
<02>_:

so shalt thou find
<07912> (8681)

in the book
<05609>

of the records
<01799>_,

and know
<03046> (8748)

that this
<01791>

city
<07149>

[is] a rebellious
<04779>

city
<07149>_,

and hurtful
<05142> (8683)

unto kings
<04430>

and provinces
<04083>_,

and that they have moved
<05648> (8751)

sedition
<0849>

within the same
<01459>

of
<04481>

old
<05957>

time
<03118>_:

for
<05922>

which
<01836>

cause was this
<01791>

city
<07149>

destroyed
<02718> (8717)_.

{moved: Chaldee, made} {within...: Chaldee, in the midst thereof}

4:16

We
<0586>

certify
<03046> (8683)

the king
<04430>

that, if
<02006>

this
<01791>

city
<07149>

be builded
<01124> (8731)

[again], and the walls
<07792>

thereof set up
<03635> (8720)_,

by this
<01836>

means
<06903>

thou shalt have
<0383>

no
<03809>

portion
<02508>

on this side
<05675>

the river
<05103>_.

4:17

[Then] sent
<07972> (8754)

the king
<04430>

an answer
<06600>

unto
<05922>

Rehum
<07348>

the chancellor
<01169> <02942>_,

and [to] Shimshai
<08124>

the scribe
<05613>_,

and [to] the rest
<07606>

of their companions
<03675>

that dwell
<03488> (8750)

in Samaria
<08115>_,

and [unto] the rest
<07606>

beyond
<05675>

the river
<05103>_,

Peace
<08001>_,

and at such a time
<03706>_.

{companions: Chaldee, societies}

4:18

The letter
<05407>

which ye sent
<07972> (8754)

unto us
<05922>

hath been plainly
<06568> (8744)

read
<07123> (8752)

before
<06925>

me.

4:19

And I
<04481>

commanded
<07761> (8752) <02942>_,

and search
<01240> (8745)

hath been made, and it is found
<07912> (8684)

that this
<01791>

city
<07149>

of
<04481>

old
<05957>

time
<03118>

hath made insurrection
<05376> (8723)

against
<05922>

kings
<04430>_,

and [that] rebellion
<04776>

and sedition
<0849>

have been made
<05648> (8727)

therein. {I commanded: Chaldee, by me a decree is set} {made insurrection: Chaldee, lifted up itself}

4:20

There have been
<01934> (8754)

mighty
<08624>

kings
<04430>

also over
<05922>

Jerusalem
<03390>_,

which have ruled
<07990>

over all
<03606>

[countries] beyond
<05675>

the river
<05103>_;

and toll
<04061>_,

tribute
<01093>_,

and custom
<01983>_,

was paid
<03052> (8727)

unto them.

4:21

Give
<07761> (8747)

ye now
<03705>

commandment
<02942>

to cause
<0989> (0)

these
<0479>

men
<01400>

to cease
<0989> (8749)_,

and that this
<01791>

city
<07149>

be not
<03809>

builded
<01124> (8731)_,

until
<05705>

[another] commandment
<02941>

shall be given
<07761> (8725)

from me
<04481>_.

{Give...: Chaldee, Make a decree}

4:22

Take heed
<01934> (8747) <02095> (8750)

now that ye fail
<07960>

not to do
<05922> <05648> (8749)

this
<01836>_:

why
<04101>

should damage
<02257>

grow
<07680> (8748)

to the hurt
<05142> (8682)

of the kings
<04430>_?

4:23

Now
<0116>

when
<04481> <01768>

the copy
<06573>

of king
<04430>

Artaxerxes
<0783>_'

letter
<05407>

[was] read
<07123> (8752)

before
<06925>

Rehum
<07348>_,

and Shimshai
<08124>

the scribe
<05613>_,

and their companions
<03675>_,

they went up
<0236> (8754)

in haste
<0924>

to Jerusalem
<03390>

unto
<05922>

the Jews
<03062>_,

and made them
<01994>

to cease
<0989> (8754)

by force
<0153>

and power
<02429>_.

{by force...: Chaldee, by arm and power}

4:24

Then
<0116>

ceased
<0989> (8754)

the work
<05673>

of the house
<01005>

of God
<0426>

which [is] at Jerusalem
<03390>_.

So it ceased
<01934> (8754) <0989> (8750)

unto
<05705>

the second
<08648>

year
<08140>

of the reign
<04437>

of Darius
<01868>

king
<04430>

of Persia
<06540>_.

Isaiah 35:3-4

35:3

Strengthen
<02388> (8761)

ye the weak
<07504>

hands
<03027>_,

and confirm
<0553> (8761)

the feeble
<03782> (8802)

knees
<01290>_.

35:4

Say
<0559> (8798)

to them [that are] of a fearful
<04116> (8737)

heart
<03820>_,

Be strong
<02388> (8798)_,

fear
<03372> (8799)

not: behold, your God
<0430>

will come
<0935> (8799)

[with] vengeance
<05359>_,

[even] God
<0430>

[with] a recompence
<01576>_;

he will come
<0935> (8799)

and save
<03467> (8686)

you. {fearful: Heb. hasty}

Jeremiah 38:4

38:4

Therefore the princes
<08269>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>_,

We beseech thee, let this man
<0376>

be put to death
<04191> (8714)_:

for thus
<03651>

he weakeneth
<07503> (8764)

the hands
<03027>

of the men
<0582>

of war
<04421>

that remain
<07604> (8737)

in this city
<05892>_,

and the hands
<03027>

of all the people
<05971>_,

in speaking
<01696> (8763)

such words
<01697>

unto them: for this man
<0376>

seeketh
<01875> (8802)

not the welfare
<07965>

of this people
<05971>_,

but the hurt
<07451>_.

{welfare: Heb. peace}

Hebrews 12:12

12:12

Wherefore
<1352>

lift up
<461> (5657)

the hands
<5495>

which hang down
<3935> (5772)_,

and
<2532>

the feeble
<3886> (5772)

knees
<1119>_;
