2 Chronicles 20:3

20:3

And Jehoshaphat
<03092>

feared
<03372> (8799)_,

and set
<05414> (8799)

himself
<06440>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and proclaimed
<07121> (8799)

a fast
<06685>

throughout
<05921>

all Judah
<03063>_.

{himself: Heb. his face}

Ezra 8:21-23

8:21

Then I proclaimed
<07121> (8799)

a fast
<06685>

there, at the river
<05104>

of Ahava
<0163>_,

that we might afflict
<06031> (8692)

ourselves before
<06440>

our God
<0430>_,

to seek
<01245> (8763)

of him a right
<03477>

way
<01870>

for us, and for our little ones
<02945>_,

and for all our substance
<07399>_.

8:22

For I was ashamed
<0954> (8804)

to require
<07592> (8800)

of the king
<04428>

a band of soldiers
<02428>

and horsemen
<06571>

to help
<05826> (8800)

us against the enemy
<0341> (8802)

in the way
<01870>_:

because we had spoken
<0559> (8804)

unto the king
<04428>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The hand
<03027>

of our God
<0430>

[is] upon all them for good
<02896>

that seek
<01245> (8764)

him; but his power
<05797>

and his wrath
<0639>

[is] against all them that forsake
<05800> (8802)

him.

8:23

So we fasted
<06684> (8799)

and besought
<01245> (8762)

our God
<0430>

for this: and he was intreated
<06279> (8735)

of us.

9:1

Now in the twenty
<06242>

and fourth
<0702>

day
<03117>

of this month
<02320>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

were assembled
<0622> (8738)

with fasting
<06685>_,

and with sackclothes
<08242>_,

and earth
<0127>

upon them.

9:2

And the seed
<02233>

of Israel
<03478>

separated
<0914> (8735)

themselves from all strangers
<01121> <05236>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

and confessed
<03034> (8691)

their sins
<02403>_,

and the iniquities
<05771>

of their fathers
<01>_.

{strangers: Heb. strange children}

9:3

And they stood up
<06965> (8799)

in their place
<05977>_,

and read
<07121> (8799)

in the book
<05612>

of the law
<08451>

of the LORD
<03068>

their God
<0430>

[one] fourth part
<07243>

of the day
<03117>_;

and [another] fourth part
<07243>

they confessed
<03034> (8693)_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8693)

the LORD
<03068>

their God
<0430>_.

Daniel 9:3-5

9:3

And I set
<05414> (8799)

my face
<06440>

unto the Lord
<0136>

God
<0430>_,

to seek
<01245> (8763)

by prayer
<08605>

and supplications
<08469>_,

with fasting
<06685>_,

and sackcloth
<08242>_,

and ashes
<0665>_:

9:4

And I prayed
<06419> (8691)

unto the LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_,

and made my confession
<03034> (8691)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

O
<0577>

Lord
<0136>_,

the great
<01419>

and dreadful
<03372> (8737)

God
<0410>_,

keeping
<08104> (8802)

the covenant
<01285>

and mercy
<02617>

to them that love
<0157> (8802)

him, and to them that keep
<08104> (8802)

his commandments
<04687>_;

9:5

We have sinned
<02398> (8804)_,

and have committed iniquity
<05753> (8804)_,

and have done wickedly
<07561> (8689)_,

and have rebelled
<04775> (8804)_,

even by departing
<05493> (8800)

from thy precepts
<04687>

and from thy judgments
<04941>_:

Joel 2:12

2:12

Therefore also now, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

turn
<07725> (8798)

ye [even] to me with all your heart
<03824>_,

and with fasting
<06685>_,

and with weeping
<01065>_,

and with mourning
<04553>_:

Jonah 3:1-10

3:1

And the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came unto Jonah
<03124>

the second
<08145>

time, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

3:2

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go
<03212> (8798)

unto Nineveh
<05210>_,

that great
<01419>

city
<05892>_,

and preach
<07121> (8798)

unto it the preaching
<07150>

that I bid
<01696> (8802)

thee.

3:3

So Jonah
<03124>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

unto Nineveh
<05210>_,

according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

Now Nineveh
<05210>

was an exceeding
<0430>

great
<01419>

city
<05892>

of three
<07969>

days
<03117>_'

journey
<04109>_.

{exceeding: Heb. of God}

3:4

And Jonah
<03124>

began
<02490> (8686)

to enter
<0935> (8800)

into the city
<05892>

a
<0259>

day's
<03117>

journey
<04109>_,

and he cried
<07121> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Yet forty
<0705>

days
<03117>_,

and Nineveh
<05210>

shall be overthrown
<02015> (8737)_.

3:5

So the people
<0582>

of Nineveh
<05210>

believed
<0539> (8686)

God
<0430>_,

and proclaimed
<07121> (8799)

a fast
<06685>_,

and put
<03847> (8799)

on sackcloth
<08242>_,

from the greatest
<01419>

of them even to the least
<06996>

of them.

3:6

For word
<01697>

came
<05060> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>

of Nineveh
<05210>_,

and he arose
<06965> (8799)

from his throne
<03678>_,

and he laid
<05674> (8686)

his robe
<0155>

from him, and covered
<03680> (8762)

[him] with sackcloth
<08242>_,

and sat
<03427> (8799)

in ashes
<0665>_.

3:7

And he caused [it] to be proclaimed
<02199> (8686)

and published
<0559> (8799)

through Nineveh
<05210>

by the decree
<02940>

of the king
<04428>

and his nobles
<01419>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Let neither man
<0120>

nor beast
<0929>_,

herd
<01241>

nor flock
<06629>_,

taste
<02938> (8799)

any thing
<03972>_:

let them not feed
<07462> (8799)_,

nor drink
<08354> (8799)

water
<04325>_:

{published: Heb. said} {nobles: Heb. great men}

3:8

But let man
<0120>

and beast
<0929>

be covered
<03680> (8691)

with sackcloth
<08242>_,

and cry
<07121> (8799)

mightily
<02394>

unto God
<0430>_:

yea, let them turn
<07725> (8799)

every one
<0376>

from his evil
<07451>

way
<01870>_,

and from the violence
<02555>

that [is] in their hands
<03709>_.

3:9

Who can tell
<03045> (8802)

[if] God
<0430>

will turn
<07725> (8799)

and repent
<05162> (8738)_,

and turn away
<07725> (8804)

from his fierce
<02740>

anger
<0639>_,

that we perish
<06> (8799)

not?

3:10

And God
<0430>

saw
<07200> (8799)

their works
<04639>_,

that they turned
<07725> (8804)

from their evil
<07451>

way
<01870>_;

and God
<0430>

repented
<05162> (8735)

of the evil
<07451>_,

that he had said
<01696> (8765)

that he would do
<06213> (8800)

unto them; and he did
<06213> (8804)

[it] not.
