But there cameª° a messengerª unto¹ Saul,ª saying,ª° Hasteª° thee, and come;²°¹ for¹ the Philistinesª have invadedª°¹ the land.ª" {1Sm 23:26-27} + "[When] the poorª and needyª seekª° water,ª and [there is] none,¹ [and] their tongueª failethª° for thirst,ª I¹ the LORDª will hearª° them, I the Godª of Israelª will not¹ forsakeª° them." {Isa 41:17} + "Oª the depthª of the richesª bothª of the wisdomª andª knowledgeª of God!ª howª unsearchableª [are] his²¹ judgments,ª andª his²¹ waysª past finding out!ª" {Rom 11:33}
could not the king sleep:
Heb. the king's sleep fled away, "And in the secondª yearª of the reignª of Nebuchadnezzarª Nebuchadnezzarª dreamedª° dreams,ª wherewith his spiritª was troubled,ª° and his sleepª brakeª° from¹ him." {Dan 2:1} + "Thenª the kingª wentª° to his palace,ª and passed the nightª° fasting:ª neitherª were instruments² of musick¹ broughtª° beforeª him: and his sleepª wentª° from¹ him.²" {Dan 6:18}
the book of records:
As chronicles were composed among the Persians, a more instructive and interesting work could not be brought before the king; because they were all written in verse, and were generally the work of the most eminent poets of the empire. "And when inquisition²° was made¹ of the matter,ª it was found out;ª° therefore they were bothª hangedª° on¹ a tree:ª and it was writtenª° in the bookª of the chroniclesª² beforeª the king.ª" {Est 2:23} + "Then¹ they that fearedª the LORDª spake¹ often²° oneª to¹ another:ª and the LORDª hearkened,ª° and heardª° [it], and a bookª of remembranceª was writtenª° beforeª him for them that feared²¹ the LORD,ª and that thoughtª° upon his name.ª" {Mal 3:16}
