- too strait for us:
- "And the childrenª of Josephª spakeª° unto¹¹ Joshua,ª saying,ª° Why¹ hast thou givenª° me [but] oneª lotª and oneª portionª to inherit,ª seeing I¹ [am] a greatª people,ª forasmuch¹ as² the LORDª hath blessedª° me hitherto?ª¹¹" {Jsh 17:14} + "And the coastª of the childrenª of Danª went outª° [too little] for them:¹ therefore the childrenª of Danª went upª° to fightª° against¹ Leshem,ª and tookª° it, and smoteª° it with the edgeª of the sword,ª and possessedª° it, and dweltª° therein, and calledª° Leshem,ª Dan,ª after the nameª of Danª their father.ª" {Jsh 19:47} + "Even so¹ would he have removedª° thee out of the straitªª¹ [into] a broad place,ª whereª [there is] no¹ straitness;ª and that which should be setª on thy tableª [should be] fullª° of fatness.ª" {Job 36:16} + "For¹ thy wasteª and thy desolate places,ª° and the landª of thy destruction,ª shall even¹ now¹ be too narrowª° by reason of the inhabitants,ª°¹ and they that swallowed thee upª° shall be far away.ª° ... The childrenª which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost² the other,¹ shall sayª° again¹ in thine ears,ª The placeª [is] too straitª for me: give²° place²¹ to me that I may dwell.ª°" {Isa 49:19-20} + "Enlargeª° the placeª of thy tent,ª and let them stretch forthª° the curtainsª of thine habitations:ª spareª° not,¹ lengthenª° thy cords,ª and strengthenª° thy stakes;ª ... For¹ thou shalt break forthª° on the right handª and on the left;ª and thy seedª shall inheritª° the Gentiles,ª and make the desolateª° citiesª to be inhabited.ª°" {Isa 54:2-3}
