- I make Peace:
- "O² Assyrian,ª the rodª of mine anger,ª and the staffª in their handª is mine indignation.ª ... I will sendª° him against an hypocriticalª nation,ª and against¹ the peopleª of my wrathª will I give him a charge,ª° to takeª° the spoil,ª and to takeª° the prey,ª and to tread them downª²° like the mireª of the streets.ª" {Isa 10:5-6} + "But he saidª° unto¹ her, Thou speakestª° as oneª of the foolish womenª speaketh.ª° What?ª shall we receiveª°¹ goodª at the hand¹¹ of God,ª and shall we not¹ receiveª° evil?ª In all¹ this¹ did not¹ Jobª sinª° with his lips.ª" {Job 2:10} + "When he¹ giveth quietness,ª° who¹ then can make trouble?ª° and when he hidethª° [his] face,ª who¹ then can beholdª° him? whether [it be done] against¹ a nation,ª or against¹ a manª only:ª" {Job 34:29} + "The LORDª will giveª° strengthª unto his people;ª the LORDª will blessª°¹ his peopleª with peace.ª" {Psa 29:11} + "But¹ Godª [is] the judge:ª° he putteth downª° one,¹ and setteth¹ up²° another.¹" {Psa 75:7} + "Considerª°¹ the workª of God:ª for¹ who¹ canª° make [that] straight,ª°¹ which¹ he hath made crooked?ª° ... In the dayª of prosperityª be¹ joyful,ª but in the dayª of adversityª consider:ª° Godª also¹ hath setª°¹ the one¹ over againstª the other,¹ to¹ the endª that manª should findª° nothingª¹¹ afterª him." {Ecc 7:13-14} + "[At what] instantª I shall speakª° concerning¹ a nation,ª and concerning¹ a kingdom,ª to pluck up,ª° and to pull down,ª° and to destroyª° [it]; ... If it doª° evilª in my sight,ª that it obeyª° not¹ my voice,ª then I will repentª° of¹ the good,ª wherewith¹ I saidª° I would benefitª° them." {Jer 18:7-10} + "Thou¹ [art] my battle axeª [and] weaponsª of war:ª for with thee will I break in piecesª° the nations,ª and with thee will I destroyª° kingdoms;ª" {Jer 51:20} + "Ifª I cause noisomeª beastsª to pass¹ through²° the land,ª and they spoilª° it, so that it be¹ desolate,ª that no man¹¹ may pass throughª° becauseª¹ of the beasts:ª ...
