- a pricking:
- "But if¹ ye will not¹ drive outª°¹ the inhabitantsª° of the landª from beforeª¹ you; then it shall come to pass,¹ that those which¹ ye let remainª° of¹ them [shall be] pricksª in your eyes,ª and thorns²¹ in your sides,ª and shall vexª° you in¹ the landª wherein¹ ye¹ dwell.ª°" {Num 33:55} + "Know²° for a certaintyª° that¹ the LORDª your Godª will no¹ moreª° drive outª° [any of]¹ these¹ nationsª from beforeª¹ you; but they shall be¹ snaresª and trapsª unto you, and scourgesª in your sides,ª and thorns²¹ in your eyes,ª until¹ ye perishª° from off¹¹ this¹ goodª landª which¹ the LORDª your Godª hath givenª° you." {Jsh 23:13} + "Wherefore I also¹ said,ª° I will not¹ drive them outª°¹ from beforeª¹ you; but they shall be¹ [as thorns] in your sides,ª and their godsª shall be¹ a snareª unto you." {Jdg 2:3} + "No¹ lionª shall be¹ there,¹ nor¹ [any] ravenousª beastª shall go upª° thereon, it shall not¹ be foundª° there;¹ but the redeemedª° shall walkª° [there]:" {Isa 35:9} + "Instead¹ of the thornª shall come upª° the fir tree,ª and instead¹ of the brierª shall come upª° the myrtle tree:ª and it shall be¹ to the LORDª for a name,ª for an everlastingª signª [that] shall not¹ be cut off.ª°" {Isa 55:13} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª against¹ all¹ mine evilª neighbours,ª that touchª° the inheritanceª which¹ I have caused¹ my peopleª¹ Israelª to inherit;ª° Behold,¹ I will pluck them outª° of¹¹ their land,ª and pluck outª° the houseª of Judahª from amongª¹ them." {Jer 12:14} + "The bestª of them [is] as a brier:ª the most uprightª [is sharper] than a thorn hedge:ª¹ the dayª of thy watchmenª° [and] thy visitationª cometh;ª° now¹ shall be¹ their perplexity.ª" {Mic 7:4} + "Andª lestª I should be exalted above measureª° through the¹ abundanceª of the¹ revelations,ª there was givenª° to meª a thornª in the¹ flesh,ª the messengerª of Satanª toª buffetª° me,ª lestª I should be exalted above measure.ª°" {2Co 12:7} + "Andª Godª shall wipe awayª° allª tearsª fromª their²¹ eyes;ª andª there shall beª° noª moreª death,ª neitherª sorrow,ª norª crying,ª neitherª² shall there beª°¹ any moreª pain:ª forª the¹ former thingsª are passed away.ª°" {Rev 21:4}
