- Have I been:
- "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª What¹ iniquityª have your fathersª foundª° in me, that¹ they are gone farª° from¹¹ me, and have walked²°¹ afterª vanity,ª and are become vain?ª° ... Neither¹ saidª° they, Where¹ [is] the LORDª that brought us upª°¹ out of the landª¹ of Egypt,ª that led²°¹ us through the wilderness,ª through a landª of desertsª and of pits,ª through a landª of drought,ª and of the shadow of death,ª through a landª that no¹ manª passed through,ª° and where¹ no¹ manª dwelt?ª°" {Jer 2:5-6} + "And Nathanª saidª° to¹ David,ª Thou¹ [art] the man.ª Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª Godª of Israel,ª I¹ anointedª° thee kingª over¹ Israel,ª and I¹ deliveredª° thee out of the handª¹ of Saul;ª ... Wherefore¹ hast thou despisedª°¹ the commandmentª of the LORD,ª to doª° evilª in his sight?ª thou hast killedª°¹ Uriahª the Hittiteª with the sword,ª and hast takenª° his wifeª [to be] thy wife,ª and hast slainª° him with the swordª of the childrenª of Ammon.ª" {2Sm 12:7-9} + "And Azariahª the chiefª priestª of the houseª of Zadokª answeredª°¹ him, and said,ª° Since [the people] beganª°¹ to bringª° the offeringsª into the houseª of the LORD,ª we have had enoughª° to eat,ª° and have leftª°¹ plenty:ª for¹ the LORDª hath blessedª°¹ his people;ª and that which is leftª° [is]¹ this¹ great store.ª" {2Ch 31:10} + "Yea, fortyª yearsª didst thou sustainª° them in the wilderness,ª [so that] they lackedª° nothing;¹ their clothesª waxed not old,ª°¹ and their feetª swelledª° not.¹ ... And they tookª° strongª° cities,ª and a fatª land,ª and possessedª° housesª fullª of all¹ goods,ª wellsª digged,ª° vineyards,ª and oliveyards,ª and fruitª treesª in abundance:ª so they did eat,ª° and were filled,ª° and became fat,ª° and delighted²° themselves¹ in thy greatª goodness.ª" {Neh 9:21-25} + "And she shall follow²° after¹¹ her lovers,ª° but she shall not¹ overtakeª° them; and she shall seekª° them, but shall not¹ findª° [them]: then shall she say,ª° I will go²°¹ and returnª° to¹ my firstª husband;ª for¹ then¹ [was it] betterª with me than now.ª¹ ... For she¹ did not¹ knowª° that¹ I¹ gaveª° her corn,ª and wine,ª and oil,ª and multipliedª° her silverª and gold,ª [which] they preparedª° for Baal.ª" {Hsa 2:7-8} + "Ye¹ [are] cursedª° with a curse:ª for ye¹ have robbedª° me, [even] this whole¹ nation.ª ... And I will rebukeª° the devourerª° for your sakes, and he shall not¹ destroyª°¹ the fruitsª of your ground;ª neither¹ shall your vineª cast her fruit²° before the time¹ in the field,ª saithª° the LORDª of hosts.ª" {Mal 3:9-11}
