when these things were done, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, doing according to their abominations, even of the
Canaanites, the
Hittites, the
Perizzites, the Jebusites, the
Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the
Amorites.
After these things had been accomplished, the leaders approached me and said, “The people of Israel, including the priests and Levites, have not kept themselves separate from the surrounding peoples whose abominations are like those of the
Canaanites,
Hittites,
Perizzites, Jebusites,
Ammonites, Moabites, Egyptians, and
Amorites.

mantle, and
plucked off the hair of my head and of my
beard, and sat down
astonied.
Now
when Ezra had prayed, and
when he had
confessed,
weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there assembled unto him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children: for the people
wept very
sore.

weeping and falling facedown before the house of God, a very large assembly of Israelites—men, women, and children—gathered around him, and the people
wept bitterly as well.

beforetime sad in his presence.

sad,
when the city, the place of my fathers’
sepulchres, lieth waste, and the gates thereof are consumed with fire?
and replied to the king, “May the king live
forever! Why should I not be
sad when the city where my fathers are buried lies in ruins, and its gates have been destroyed by fire?”

But
when Sanballat the Horonite and
Tobiah the
Ammonite official heard about this, they were deeply disturbed that someone had come to seek the well-being of the Israelites.
But
when Sanballat the Horonite,
Tobiah the
Ammonite official, and Geshem the Arab heard about this, they
mocked us and
ridiculed us, saying, “What is this you are doing? Are you rebelling against the king?”
But it came to pass, that
when Sanballat, and
Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the
Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, and that the breaches began to be stopped, then they were very
wroth,
When Sanballat and
Tobiah, together with the Arabs,
Ammonites, and Ashdodites, heard that the repair to the walls of Jerusalem was progressing and that the gaps were being closed, they were
furious,
And it came to pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by them came, they said unto us ten times, From all places whence ye shall return unto us they will be upon you.

And it came to pass,
when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to
nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work.
When our enemies heard that we were aware of their scheme and that God had
frustrated it, each of us returned to his own work on the wall.
And I was very
angry when I heard their cry and these words.
When I heard their outcry and these complaints, I became extremely
angry,
Now it came to pass,
when Sanballat, and
Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had builded the wall, and that there was no breach left therein; (though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the gates;)
When Sanballat,
Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies heard that I had rebuilt the wall and not a
gap was left—though to that time I had not yet
installed the doors in the gates—
And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard thereof, and all the heathen that were about us saw these things, they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God.
When all our enemies heard about this, all the surrounding nations were afraid and
disheartened, for they realized that this task had been accomplished by our God.
Now it came to pass,
when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the
porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
When the wall had been rebuilt and I had set the doors in place, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.
So the priests, and the Levites, and the
porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the
Nethinims, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities; and
when the seventh month came, the children of Israel were in their cities.
So the priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, and temple servants, along with some of the people and the rest of the Israelites, settled in their own towns. And by the seventh month the Israelites had settled in their towns.
And
Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and

And
Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and

scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto the LORD your God;
mourn not, nor
weep. For all the people
wept,
when they heard the words of the law.
Nehemiah the governor,
Ezra the priest and
scribe, and the Levites who were
instructing the people said to all of them, “This day is holy to the LORD your God. Do not
mourn or
weep.” For all the people were
weeping as they heard the words of the Law.
Yea,
when they had made them a
molten calf, and said, This is thy God that brought thee up out of Egypt, and had wrought great provocations;
Even
when they cast for themselves an image of a
calf and said, ‘This is your God who brought you up out of Egypt,’ and
when they committed terrible blasphemies,
Therefore thou deliveredst them into the hand of their enemies, who
vexed them: and in the time of their trouble,
when they
cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and according to thy
manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies.
So You delivered them into the hands of enemies who
oppressed them, and in their time of distress they
cried out to You. From heaven You heard them, and in Your great
compassion You gave them deliverers who saved them from the hands of their enemies.
But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them: yet
when they returned, and
cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and many times
didst thou deliver them according to thy
mercies;
But as soon as they had rest, they again did evil in Your sight. So You abandoned them to the hands of their enemies, who had dominion over them.
When they
cried out to You again, You heard from heaven, and You delivered them many times in Your
compassion.
And if the people of the land bring ware or any
victuals on the sabbath day to sell, that we would not
buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day: and that we would leave the seventh year, and the
exaction of every debt.
When the people of the land bring
merchandise or any kind of grain to sell on the Sabbath day, we will not
buy from them on a Sabbath or holy day. Every seventh year we will let the fields lie
fallow, and will
cancel every debt.
And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites,
when the Levites take
tithes: and the Levites shall bring up the
tithe of the
tithes unto the house of our God, to the chambers, into the
treasure house.
A priest of Aaron’s line is to
accompany the Levites
when they collect the tenth, and the Levites are to bring a tenth of these
tithes to the storerooms of the treasury in the house of our God.

And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and some of my servants set I at the gates, that there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day.
When the evening shadows began to fall on the gates of Jerusalem, just before the Sabbath, I ordered that the gates be shut and not opened until after the Sabbath. I posted some of my servants at the gates so that no load could enter on the Sabbath day.
That in those days,
when the king
Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in
Shushan the palace,
In those days King
Xerxes sat on his royal throne in the citadel of
Susa.
When he shewed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honour of his excellent majesty many days, even an hundred and
fourscore days.
And for a full 180 days he displayed the glorious riches of his kingdom and the magnificent
splendor of his greatness.
And
when these days were
expired, the king made a feast unto all the people that were present in
Shushan the palace, both unto great and small, seven days, in the court of the garden of the king’s palace;
At the end of this time, in the garden court of the royal palace, the king held a seven-day feast for all the people in the citadel of
Susa, from the least to the greatest.
On the seventh day,
when the heart of the king was
merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven chamberlains that served in the presence of
Ahasuerus the king,
On the seventh day,
when the king’s heart was
merry with wine, he ordered the seven eunuchs who served him—Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carkas—
For this deed of the queen shall come abroad unto all women, so that they shall
despise their husbands in their eyes,
when it shall be reported, The king
Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not.
For the conduct of the queen will become known to all women, causing them to
despise their husbands and say, ‘King
Xerxes ordered Queen Vashti to be brought before him, but she did not come.’
And when the king’s decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small.
The edict the king issues will be heard throughout his vast kingdom—and so all women, from the least to the greatest, will honor their husbands.”
After these things,
when the wrath of king
Ahasuerus was
appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
Some time later,
when the anger of King
Xerxes had
subsided, he remembered Vashti and what she had done, and what had been decreed against her.
And he brought up Hadassah, that is,
Esther, his uncle’s daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the
maid was fair and beautiful; whom
Mordecai,
when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter.
And
Mordecai had brought up Hadassah (that is,
Esther), the daughter of his uncle, because she did not have a father or mother. The young woman was lovely in form and appearance, and
when her father and mother had died,
Mordecai had taken her in as his own daughter.
So it came to pass,
when the king’s commandment and his decree was heard, and
when many maidens were gathered together unto
Shushan the palace, to the
custody of Hegai, that
Esther was brought also unto the king’s house, to the
custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
When the king’s command and edict had been proclaimed, many young women gathered at the citadel of
Susa under the care of Hegai.
Esther was also taken to the palace and placed under the care of Hegai, the
custodian of the women.
Now
when every
maid’s turn was come to go in to king
Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of
myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the
purifying of the women;)
In the twelve months before her turn to go to King
Xerxes, the
harem regulation required each young woman to receive beauty treatments with oil of
myrrh for six months, and then with perfumes and cosmetics for another six months.
Then thus came every
maiden unto the king;
whatsoever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women unto the king’s house.
When the young woman would go to the king, she was given whatever she requested to take with her from the
harem to the king’s palace.
Now
when the turn of
Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of
Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in unto the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king’s
chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. And
Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her.
Now
Esther was the daughter of Abihail, the uncle from whom
Mordecai had adopted her as his own daughter. And
when it was her turn to go to the king, she did not ask for anything except what Hegai, the king’s trusted official in charge of the
harem, had
advised. And
Esther found favor in the eyes of
everyone who saw her.
And
when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then
Mordecai sat in the king’s gate.
When the virgins were assembled a second time,
Mordecai was sitting at the king’s gate.
Esther had not yet shewed her kindred nor her people; as
Mordecai had charged her: for
Esther did the commandment of
Mordecai, like as
when she was brought up with him.
When Mordecai learned of the plot, he reported it to Queen
Esther, and she informed the king on
Mordecai’s behalf.
And
when inquisition was made of the matter, it was found out; therefore they were both
hanged on a tree: and it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king.
After the report had been investigated and
verified, both officials were
hanged on the
gallows. And all this was recorded in the Book of the Chronicles in the presence of the king.
Now it came to pass,
when they spake daily unto him, and he
hearkened not unto them, that they told
Haman, to see whether
Mordecai’s matters would stand: for he had told them that he was a
Jew.
And
when Haman saw that
Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was
Haman full of wrath.
And he thought
scorn to lay hands on
Mordecai alone; for they had shewed him the people of
Mordecai: wherefore
Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that were throughout the whole kingdom of
Ahasuerus, even the people of
Mordecai.
And
when he learned the identity of
Mordecai’s people, he
scorned the notion of laying hands on
Mordecai alone. Instead, he sought to destroy all of
Mordecai’s people, the Jews, throughout the kingdom of
Xerxes.
When Mordecai perceived all that was done,
Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on
sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and
cried with a loud and a bitter cry;
When Mordecai learned of all that had happened, he
tore his clothes, put on
sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the middle of the city,
wailing loudly and bitterly.
When Esther’s maidens and eunuchs came and told her about
Mordecai, the queen was overcome with distress. She sent clothes for
Mordecai to wear instead of his
sackcloth, but he would not accept them.
And it was so,
when the king saw
Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to
Esther the golden
sceptre that was in his hand. So
Esther drew near, and touched the top of the
sceptre.
As soon as the king saw Queen
Esther standing in the court, she found favor in his sight. The king extended the gold
scepter in his hand toward
Esther, and she approached and touched the
tip of the
scepter.
Nevertheless
Haman refrained himself: and
when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.
Nevertheless,
Haman restrained himself and went home. And calling for his friends and his wife Zeresh,
And it was found written, that
Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king
Ahasuerus.
And there it was found recorded that
Mordecai had exposed Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs who guarded the king’s entrance,
when they had
conspired to
assassinate King
Xerxes.
Now in the
twelfth month, that is, the month
Adar, on the
thirteenth day of the same,
when the king’s commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, (though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that
hated them;)
On the
thirteenth day of the
twelfth month, the month of
Adar, the king’s command and edict were to be executed. On this day the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, but their plan was overturned and the Jews overpowered those who
hated them.
But
when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked
device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be
hanged on the
gallows.
But
when it came before the king, he commanded by letter that the wicked scheme which
Haman had devised against the Jews should come back upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be
hanged on the
gallows.
And it was so,
when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and
sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have
sinned, and
cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
And
when the days of feasting were over, Job would send for his children to
purify them, rising early in the morning to offer burnt offerings for all of them. For Job thought, “Perhaps my children have
sinned and
cursed God in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular practice.
Now there was a day
when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and
Satan came also among them.
One day the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and
Satan also came with them.
And the LORD said unto
Satan,
Whence comest thou? Then
Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and
fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
“Where have you come from?” said the LORD to
Satan. “From
roaming through the earth,” he replied, “and walking back and forth in it.”
And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house:
One day, while Job’s sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house,
And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and
smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
when suddenly a mighty wind swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It
collapsed on the young people and they are dead, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”
Again there was a day
when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and
Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.
On another day the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and
Satan also came with them to present himself before Him.
And the LORD said unto
Satan, From
whence comest thou? And
Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and
fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
“Where have you come from?” said the LORD to
Satan. “From
roaming through the earth,” he replied, “and walking back and forth in it.”
Now
when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and
Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to
mourn with him and to comfort him.
Now
when Job’s three friends—Eliphaz the Temanite,
Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite—heard about all this
adversity that had come upon him, each of them came from his home, and they met together to go and
sympathize with Job and comfort him.
And
when they lifted up their eyes
afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and
wept; and they rent every one his
mantle, and
sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
When they lifted up their eyes from
afar, they could barely recognize Job. They began to
weep aloud, and each man
tore his
robe and threw dust in the air over his head.
Why died I not from the
womb? why did I not give up the ghost
when I came out of the
belly?
Why did I not perish at birth; why did I not die as I came from the
womb?
Which
rejoice exceedingly, and are
glad,
when they can find the grave?
For my
sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
I
sigh when food is put before me, and my groans pour out like water.
In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men,
In disquieting visions in the night, when deep sleep falls on men,
Thou shalt be
hid from the
scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction
when it cometh.
You will be hidden from the
scourge of the tongue, and will not fear
havoc when it comes.
And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy
habitation, and shalt not sin.
You will know that your tent is secure, and find nothing
amiss when inspecting your home.
What time they wax warm, they
vanish:
when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
but ceasing in the dry season and
vanishing from their channels in the heat.
When I lie down, I say,
When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and
fro unto the
dawning of the day.
When I lie down I think: ‘
When will I get up?’ But the night drags on, and I
toss and turn until
dawn.
When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my
couch shall ease my
complaint;
When I think my bed will comfort me and my
couch will ease my
complaint,
When your children
sinned against Him, He gave them over to their rebellion.
When the
scourge brings sudden death, He mocks the
despair of the innocent.
Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
before I go—never to return— to a land of darkness and
gloom,
Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and
when thou mockest, shall no man make thee
ashamed?
Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so
mock him?
Would it be well
when He examined you? Could you
deceive Him like a man?
If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
When a man dies, will he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait, until my
renewal comes.
Unto whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them.
to whom alone the land was given when no foreigner passed among them.
When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
For when only a few years are past I will go the way of no return.
They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.
Will it go down to the gates of
Sheol? Will we go down together into the dust?”
Yea, young children
despised me; I arose, and they spake against me.
Even little boys
scorn me;
when I appear, they
deride me.
When he is about to fill his
belly, God shall cast the
fury of his wrath upon him, and shall rain it upon him while he is eating.
When he has filled his stomach, God will
vent His
fury upon him, raining it down on him as he eats.
