- God liveth:
- "But [as] trulyª [as] I¹ live,ª¹ all¹ the earthª shall be filledª° with the gloryª of the LORD.ª" {Num 14:21} + "Tarryª° this night,ª and it shall be¹ in the morning,ª [that] if¹ he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman,ª° well;ª let him do the kinsman's part:ª° but if¹ he willª° not¹ do the part of a kinsmanª° to thee, then will I¹ do the part of a kinsmanª° to thee, [as] the LORDª liveth:ª lie downª° until¹ the morning.ª" {Rth 3:13} + "For,¹ [as] the LORDª liveth,ª which savethª°¹ Israel,ª though¹¹ it beª in Jonathan²¹ my son,ª he shall surely²° die.ª° But [there was] not a man¹ among all¹¹ the peopleª [that] answeredª° him." {1Sm 14:39} + "And the peopleª saidª° unto¹ Saul,ª Shall Jonathan²¹ die,ª° who¹ hath wroughtª° this¹ greatª salvationª in Israel?ª God forbid:ª [as] the LORDª liveth,ª there shall not¹ one hairª¹ of his headª fallª° to the ground;ª for¹ he hath wroughtª° with¹ Godª this¹ day.ª So the peopleª rescuedª°¹ Jonathan,²¹ that he diedª° not.¹" {1Sm 14:45} + "And, behold,¹ I will sendª°¹ a lad,ª [saying], Go,²°¹ find outª°¹ the arrows.ª If¹ I expressly²° sayª° unto the lad,ª Behold,¹ the arrowsª [are] on this side¹¹ of thee, takeª° them; then comeª° thou: for¹ [there is] peaceª to thee, and no¹ hurt;ª [as] the LORDª liveth.ª" {1Sm 20:21} + "Now¹ therefore, my lord,ª [as] the LORDª liveth,ª and [as] thy soulª liveth,ª seeing¹ the LORDª hath withholdenª° thee from comingª°¹ to [shed] blood,ª and from avengingª° thyself with thine own hand,ª now¹ let thine enemies,ª° and they that seekª° evilª to¹ my lord,ª be¹ as Nabal.ª" {1Sm 25:26} + "For in very deed,ª [as] the LORDª Godª of Israelª liveth,ª which¹ hath kept me backª° from hurtingª°¹ thee, exceptª¹ thou hadst hastedª° and comeª° to meetª° me, surely¹ there had not¹ been leftª° unto Nabalª by¹ the morningª lightª any that pissethª° against the wall.ª" {1Sm 25:34} + "And Joabª said,ª° [As] Godª liveth,ª unlessª¹ thou hadst spoken,ª° surely¹ then¹ in the morningª the peopleª had gone upª° every oneª from followingª¹ his brother.ª" {2Sm 2:27} + "And Elijahª the Tishbite,ª [who was] of the inhabitantsª¹ of Gilead,ª saidª° unto¹ Ahab,ª [As] the LORDª Godª of Israelª liveth,ª beforeª whom¹ I stand,ª° there shall not¹ be¹ dewª nor rainª these¹ years,ª but¹¹ accordingª to my word.ª" {1Kg 17:1} + "And Elijahª said,ª° [As] the LORDª of hostsª liveth,ª beforeª whom¹ I stand,ª° I will surely¹ shew²° myself¹ unto¹ him to day.ª" {1Kg 18:15} + "And thou shalt swear,ª° The LORDª liveth,ª in truth,ª in judgment,ª and in righteousness;ª and the nationsª shall bless²° themselves¹ in him, and in him shall they glory.ª°" {Jer 4:2} + "And though¹ they say,ª° The LORDª liveth;ª surely¹ they swearª° falsely.ª" {Jer 5:2} + "And it shall come to pass,¹ if¹ they will diligently²° learnª°¹ the waysª of my people,ª to swearª° by my name,ª The LORDª liveth;ª as¹ they taughtª°¹ my peopleª to swearª° by Baal;ª then shall they be builtª° in the midstª of my people.ª" {Jer 12:16} + "Sayª° unto¹ them, [As] I¹ live,ª saithª° the Lordª GOD,ª I have no pleasureª°¹ in the deathª of the wicked;ª but¹¹ that the wickedª turnª° from his wayª¹ and live:ª° turnª° ye, turnª° ye from your evilª ways;ª¹ for why¹ will ye die,ª° O houseª of Israel?ª" {Ezk 33:11}
