Chronicles -- 13{1}
Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.
{2} He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Michaiah
the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
{3} And Abijah set the battle in array with an army of valiant men of war,
even four hundred thousand chosen men: Jeroboam also set the battle in array against
him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, being mighty men of valour. {4}
And Abijah stood up upon mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said,
Hear me, thou Jeroboam, and all Israel; {5} Ought ye not to know that
the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, even to
him and to his sons by a covenant of salt? {6} Yet Jeroboam the son
of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, is risen up, and hath rebelled
against his lord. {7} And there are gathered unto him vain men, the
children of Belial, and have strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son
of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and tenderhearted, and could not withstand
them. {8} And now ye think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD in
the hand of the sons of David; and ye be a great multitude, and there are with
you golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for gods. {9} Have ye not
cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and have
made you priests after the manner of the nations of other lands? so that whosoever
cometh to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams, the same may
be a priest of them that are no gods. {10} But as for us, the LORD
is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and the priests, which minister unto
the LORD, are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites wait upon their business:
{11} And they burn unto the LORD every morning and every evening burnt
sacrifices and sweet incense: the shewbread also set they in order upon the pure
table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, to burn every evening:
for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but ye have forsaken him. {12}
And, behold, God himself is with us for our captain, and his priests with sounding
trumpets to cry alarm against you. O children of Israel, fight ye not against
the LORD God of your fathers; for ye shall not prosper. {13} But Jeroboam
caused an ambushment to come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and
the ambushment was behind them. {14} And when Judah looked back, behold,
the battle was before and behind: and they cried unto the LORD, and the priests
sounded with the trumpets. {15} Then the men of Judah gave a shout:
and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass, that God smote Jeroboam and
all Israel before Abijah and Judah. {16} And the children of Israel
fled before Judah: and God delivered them into their hand. {17} And
Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain
of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men. {18} Thus the children
of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed,
because they relied upon the LORD God of their fathers. {19} And Abijah
pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with the towns thereof,
and Jeshnah with the towns thereof, and Ephrain with the towns thereof. {20}
Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again in the days of Abijah: and the LORD
struck him, and he died. {21} But Abijah waxed mighty, and married
fourteen wives, and begat twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters. {22}
And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, are written
in the story of the prophet Iddo. Second
Chronicles -- 14{1}
So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and
Asa his son reigned in his stead. In his days the land was quiet ten years.
{2} And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his
God: {3} For he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high
places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves: {4} And
commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the
commandment. {5} Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the
high places and the images: and the kingdom was quiet before him. {6}
And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war
in those years; because the LORD had given him rest. {7} Therefore
he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and
towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought
the LORD our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side.
So they built and prospered. {8} And Asa had an army of men that bare
targets and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin,
that bare shields and drew bows, two hundred and fourscore thousand: all these
were mighty men of valour. {9} And there came out against them Zerah
the Ethiopian with an host of a thousand thousand, and three hundred chariots;
and came unto Mareshah. {10} Then Asa went out against him, and they
set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. {11}
And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to
help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our
God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD,
thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee. {12} So the LORD
smote the Ethiopians before Asa and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
{13} And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them unto Gerar:
and the Ethiopians were overthrown, that they could not recover themselves; for
they were destroyed before the LORD, and before his host; and they carried away
very much spoil. {14} And they smote all the cities round about Gerar;
for the fear of the LORD came upon them: and they spoiled all the cities; for
there was exceeding much spoil in them. {15} They smote also the tents
of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.
Second Chronicles --
15{1} And the
Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded: {2} And he went out
to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; The
LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of
you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you. {3} Now for a long
season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and
without law. {4} But when they in their trouble did turn unto the LORD
God of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them. {5} And in those
times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great
vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the countries. {6} And nation
was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.
{7} Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work
shall be rewarded. {8} And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy
of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of
all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from
mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of the LORD, that was before the porch of
the LORD. {9} And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers
with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him
out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.
{10} So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month,
in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa. {11} And they offered unto
the LORD the same time, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen
and seven thousand sheep. {12} And they entered into a covenant to
seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
{13} That whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put
to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. {14} And they
sware unto the LORD with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and
with cornets. {15} And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had
sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was
found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about. {16} And also
concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from being queen,
because she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped
it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron. {17} But the high places were
not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his
days. {18} And he brought into the house of God the things that his
father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and
vessels. {19} And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth
year of the reign of Asa. Second
Chronicles -- 16{1}
In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up
against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or
come in to Asa king of Judah. {2} Then Asa brought out silver and gold
out of the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent
to Ben-hadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying, {3} There
is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father:
behold, I have sent thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king
of Israel, that he may depart from me. {4} And Ben-hadad hearkened
unto king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel;
and they smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-maim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.
{5} And it came to pass, when Baasha heard it, that he left off building
of Ramah, and let his work cease. {6} Then Asa the king took all Judah;
and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha
was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah. {7} And at that
time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou
hast relied on the king of Syria, and not relied on the LORD thy God, therefore
is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand. {8} Were
not the Ethiopians and the Lubims a huge host, with very many chariots and horsemen?
yet, because thou didst rely on the LORD, he delivered them into thine hand.
{9} For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth,
to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.
Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
{10} Then Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in a prison house; for
he was in a rage with him because of this thing. And Asa oppressed some of the
people the same time. {11} And, behold, the acts of Asa, first and
last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. {12}
And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until
his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD,
but to the physicians. {13} And Asa slept with his fathers, and died
in the one and fortieth year of his reign. {14} And they buried him
in his own sepulchres, which he had made for himself in the city of David, and
laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices
prepared by the apothecaries' art: and they made a very great burning for him.
John -- 19{1}
Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him. {2} And the soldiers
platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple
robe, {3} And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with
their hands. {4} Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto
them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault
in him. {5} Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and
the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man! {6} When
the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify
him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I
find no fault in him. {7} The Jews answered him, We have a law, and
by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God. {8}
When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid; {9}
And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou?
But Jesus gave him no answer. {10} Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest
thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have
power to release thee? {11} Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power
at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered
me unto thee hath the greater sin. {12} And from thenceforth Pilate
sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go,
thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against
Caesar. {13} When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus
forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement,
but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. {14} And it was the preparation of the
passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!
{15} But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate
saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priest answered, We have
no king but Caesar. {16} Then delivered he him therefore unto them
to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away. {17} And he
bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is
called in the Hebrew Golgotha: {18} Where they crucified him, and two
other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst. {19} And
Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH
THE KING OF THE JEWS. {20} This title then read many of the Jews: for
the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in
Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. {21} Then said the chief priests of the
Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of
the Jews. {22} Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
{23} Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments,
and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat
was without seam, woven from the top throughout. {24} They said therefore
among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be:
that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among
them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers
did. {25} Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his
mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. {26}
When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved,
he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! {27} Then saith he
to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her
unto his own home. {28} After this, Jesus knowing that all things were
now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
{29} Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge
with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth. {30}
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he
bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. {31} The Jews therefore, because
it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the
sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their
legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. {32} Then
came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was
crucified with him. {33} But when they came to Jesus, and saw that
he was dead already, they brake not his legs: {34} But one of the soldiers
with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
{35} And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth
that he saith true, that ye might believe. {36} For these things were
done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
{37} And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they
pierced. {38} And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple
of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take
away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took
the body of Jesus. {39} And there came also Nicodemus, which at the
first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about
an hundred pound weight. {40} Then took they the body of Jesus, and
wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
{41} Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in
the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. {42} There
laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre
was nigh at hand.
