- a captain:
- "To morrowª about this timeª I will sendª° thee a manª out of the landª¹ of Benjamin,ª and thou shalt anointª° him [to be] captainª over¹ my peopleª Israel,ª that he may saveª°¹ my peopleª out of the handª¹ of the Philistines:ª for¹ I have looked²° upon¹¹ my people,ª because¹ their cryª is comeª° unto me.¹" {1Sm 9:16} + "But the men²¹ [were] veryª goodª unto us, and we were not¹ hurt,ª° neither¹ missedª° we any thing,ª as long asª¹ we were conversantª° with¹ them, when we were¹ in the fields:ª ... They were¹ a wallª unto¹ us both¹ by nightª and¹ day,ª all¹ the whileª we were¹ with¹ them keepingª° the sheep.ª" {1Sm 25:15-16} + "Then answeredª° all¹ the wickedª menª and [men] of Belial,ª of those²¹¹ that¹ wentª° with¹ David,ª and said,ª° Because¹¹ they wentª° not¹ with¹ us, we will not¹ giveª° them [ought] of the spoilª¹ that¹ we have recovered,ª° save¹¹ to every manª¹ his wifeª and his children,ª that they may lead [them] away,ª° and depart.²°¹ ... For who¹ will hearkenª° unto you in this¹ matter?ª but¹ as his partª [is] that goeth downª°°° to the battle,ª so [shall] his partª [be] that tarriethª° by¹ the stuff:ª they shall partª° alike.ª" {1Sm 30:22-24} + "Also¹ in time past,ªª when Saulª was¹ kingª over¹ us, thou¹ wast¹ he that leddest outª° and broughtest¹¹ in²° Israel:ª and the LORDª saidª° to thee, Thou¹ shalt feedª°¹ my peopleª¹ Israel,ª and thou¹ shalt be¹ a captainª over¹ Israel.ª" {2Sm 5:2} + "Turn again,ª° and tellª°¹ Hezekiahª the captainª of my people,ª Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª the Godª of Davidª thy father,ª I have heardª°¹ thy prayer,ª I have seenª°¹ thy tears:ª behold,¹ I will healª° thee: on the thirdª dayª thou shalt go upª° unto the houseª of the LORD.ª" {2Kg 20:5} + "Now threeª of¹ the thirtyª captainsª went downª° to¹ the rockª to¹ David,ª into¹ the caveª of Adullam;ª and the hostª of the Philistinesª encampedª° in the valleyª of Rephaim.ª ... And said,ª° My Godª¹ forbid² it¹ me, that I should doª°¹ this thing:ª shall I drinkª° the bloodª of these¹ men²¹ that have put their lives¹ in jeopardy?² for¹ with [the jeopardy of] their livesª they broughtª° it. Therefore he wouldª° not¹ drinkª° it. These things¹ didª° these threeª mightiest.ª" {1Ch 11:15-19} + "For¹ he shall deliverª° the needyª when he crieth;ª° the poorª also, and [him] that hath no¹ helper.ª° ... He shall redeemª° their soulª from deceitª¹ and violence:ª¹ and preciousª° shall their bloodª be in his sight.ª" {Psa 72:12-14} + "Butª when Jesusª heardª° [that], he saidª° unto them,ª They that be²° wholeª° needª¹ notª a physician,ª butª they that are²° sick.ª¹ ... Butª go¹ ye²° and learnª° whatª [that] meaneth,ª° I willª° have mercy,ª andª notª sacrifice:ª forª I am²° notª comeª° to callª° the righteous,ª butª sinnersª toª repentance.ª" {Mtt 9:12-13} + "Forª it becameª° him,ª forª whomª [are] all things,ª andª byª whomª [are] all things,ª in bringingª° manyª sonsª untoª glory,ª to make²° the captain² of their² salvation² perfectª°¹¹¹¹ throughª sufferings.ª" {Hbr 2:10}
