Nehemiah 5:7-13

5:7

Then I consulted
<04427> (8735)

with myself
<03820>_,

and I rebuked
<07378> (8799)

the nobles
<02715>_,

and the rulers
<05461>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Ye exact
<05378> (8801) (8678) <05383> (8802) (8675) <05375> (8802)

usury
<04855>_,

every one
<0376>

of his brother
<0251>_.

And I set
<05414> (8799)

a great
<01419>

assembly
<06952>

against them. {I consulted...: Heb. my heart consulted in me}

5:8

And I said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, We after our ability
<01767>

have redeemed
<07069> (8804)

our brethren
<0251>

the Jews
<03064>_,

which were sold
<04376> (8737)

unto the heathen
<01471>_;

and will ye even sell
<04376> (8799)

your brethren
<0251>_?

or shall they be sold
<04376> (8738)

unto us? Then held they their peace
<02790> (8686)_,

and found
<04672> (8804)

nothing
<01697>

[to answer].

5:9

Also I said
<0559> (8799)_,

It [is] not good
<02896>

that
<01697>

ye do
<06213> (8802)_:

ought ye not to walk
<03212> (8799)

in the fear
<03374>

of our God
<0430>

because of the reproach
<02781>

of the heathen
<01471>

our enemies
<0341> (8802)_?

5:10

I likewise, [and] my brethren
<0251>_,

and my servants
<05288>_,

might exact
<05383> (8802)

of them money
<03701>

and corn
<01715>_:

I pray you, let us leave off
<05800> (8799)

this usury
<04855>_.

5:11

Restore
<07725> (8685)_,

I pray you, to them, even this day
<03117>_,

their lands
<07704>_,

their vineyards
<03754>_,

their oliveyards
<02132>_,

and their houses
<01004>_,

also the hundredth
<03967>

[part] of the money
<03701>_,

and of the corn
<01715>_,

the wine
<08492>_,

and the oil
<03323>_,

that ye exact
<05383> (8802)

of them.

5:12

Then said
<0559> (8799)

they, We will restore
<07725> (8686)

[them], and will require
<01245> (8762)

nothing of them; so will we do
<06213> (8799)

as thou sayest
<0559> (8802)_.

Then I called
<07121> (8799)

the priests
<03548>_,

and took an oath
<07650> (8686)

of them, that they should do
<06213> (8800)

according to this promise
<01697>_.

5:13

Also I shook
<05287> (8804)

my lap
<02684>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

So God
<0430>

shake out
<05287> (8762)

every man
<0376>

from his house
<01004>_,

and from his labour
<03018>_,

that performeth
<06965> (8686)

not this promise
<01697>_,

even thus be he shaken out
<05287> (8803)_,

and emptied
<07386>_.

And all the congregation
<06951>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Amen
<0543>_,

and praised
<01984> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>_.

And the people
<05971>

did
<06213> (8799)

according to this promise
<01697>_.

{emptied: Heb. empty, or, void}

Job 31:13-25

31:13

If I did despise
<03988> (8799)

the cause
<04941>

of my manservant
<05650>

or of my maidservant
<0519>_,

when they contended
<07379>

with me;

31:14

What then shall I do
<06213> (8799)

when God
<0410>

riseth up
<06965> (8799)_?

and when he visiteth
<06485> (8799)_,

what shall I answer
<07725> (8686)

him?

31:15

Did not he that made
<06213> (8802)

me in the womb
<0990>

make
<06213> (8804)

him? and did not one
<0259>

fashion
<03559> (8787)

us in the womb
<07358>_?

{did not one...: or, did he not fashion us in one womb?}

31:16

If I have withheld
<04513> (8799)

the poor
<01800>

from [their] desire
<02656>_,

or have caused the eyes
<05869>

of the widow
<0490>

to fail
<03615> (8762)_;

31:17

Or have eaten
<0398> (8799)

my morsel
<06595>

myself alone, and the fatherless
<03490>

hath not eaten
<0398> (8804)

thereof;

31:18

(For from my youth
<05271>

he was brought up
<01431> (8804)

with me, as [with] a father
<01>_,

and I have guided
<05148> (8686)

her from my mother's
<0517>

womb
<0990>;)

{her: that is, the widow}

31:19

If I have seen
<07200> (8799)

any perish
<06> (8802)

for want of clothing
<03830>_,

or any poor
<034>

without covering
<03682>_;

31:20

If his loins
<02504>

have not blessed
<01288> (8765)

me, and [if] he were [not] warmed
<02552> (8691)

with the fleece
<01488>

of my sheep
<03532>_;

31:21

If I have lifted up
<05130> (8689)

my hand
<03027>

against the fatherless
<03490>_,

when I saw
<07200> (8799)

my help
<05833>

in the gate
<08179>_:

31:22

[Then] let mine arm
<03802>

fall
<05307> (8799)

from my shoulder blade
<07929>_,

and mine arm
<0248>

be broken
<07665> (8735)

from the bone
<07070>_.

{bone: or, chanelbone}

31:23

For destruction
<0343>

[from] God
<0410>

[was] a terror
<06343>

to me, and by reason of his highness
<07613>

I could
<03201> (8799)

not endure.

31:24

If I have made
<07760> (8804)

gold
<02091>

my hope
<03689>_,

or have said
<0559> (8804)

to the fine gold
<03800>_,

[Thou art] my confidence
<04009>_;

31:25

If I rejoiced
<08055> (8799)

because my wealth
<02428>

[was] great
<07227>_,

and because mine hand
<03027>

had gotten
<04672> (8804)

much
<03524>_;

{gotten...: Heb. found much}

Luke 3:12-14

3:12

Then
<1161>

came
<2064> (5627)

also
<2532>

publicans
<5057>

to be baptized
<907> (5683)_,

and
<2532>

said
<2036> (5627)

unto
<4314>

him
<846>_,

Master
<1320>_,

what
<5101>

shall we do
<4160> (5692)_?

3:13

And
<1161>

he said
<2036> (5627)

unto
<4314>

them
<846>_,

Exact
<4238> (5719)

no
<3367>

more
<4119>

than
<3844>

that which is appointed
<1299> (5772)

you
<5213>_.

3:14

And
<1161>

the soldiers
<4754> (5734)

likewise
<2532>

demanded
<1905> (5707)

of him
<846>_,

saying
<3004> (5723)_,

And
<2532>

what
<5101>

shall we
<2249>

do
<4160> (5692)_?

And
<2532>

he said
<2036> (5627)

unto
<4314>

them
<846>_,

Do violence
<1286> (5661)

to no man
<3367>_,

neither
<3366>

accuse [any] falsely
<4811> (5661)_;

and
<2532>

be content
<714> (5744)

with your
<5216>

wages
<3800>_.

{Do violence...: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}

Luke 19:8

19:8

And
<1161>

Zacchaeus
<2195>

stood
<2476> (5685)_,

and said
<2036> (5627)

unto
<4314>

the Lord
<2962>_;

Behold
<2400> (5628)_,

Lord
<2962>_,

the half
<2255>

of my
<3450>

goods
<5224> (5723)

I give
<1325> (5719)

to the poor
<4434>_;

and
<2532>

if
<1536> (0)

I have taken
<4811> (0)

any thing
<1536>

from any man
<5100>

by false accusation
<4811> (5656)_,

I restore
<591> (5719)

[him] fourfold
<5073>_.

James 5:4

5:4

Behold
<2400> (5628)_,

the hire
<3408>

of the labourers
<2040>

who
<3588>

have reaped down
<270> (5660)

your
<5216>

fields
<5561>_,

which
<3588>

is of
<575>

you
<5216>

kept back by fraud
<650> (5772)_,

crieth
<2896> (5719)_:

and
<2532>

the cries
<995>

of them which have reaped
<2325> (5660)

are entered
<1525> (5754)

into
<1519>

the ears
<3775>

of the Lord
<2962>

of sabaoth
<4519>_.
