riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father’s house with fire: have ye
called us to take that we have? is it not so?

rob us?”

thereout; and when he had
drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: wherefore he
called the name thereof En-hakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day.

Samson drank, his strength returned, and he was revived. That is why he named it En-hakkore, and it remains in Lehi to this day.

tow is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known.
While the men were hidden in her room, she
called out, “
Samson, the Philistines are here!” But he
snapped the bowstrings like a
strand of yarn
seared by a flame. So the source of his strength remained unknown.

loom and the web.

called together after Saul to
Gilgal.

stench to the Philistines!” Then the people were summoned to join Saul at
Gilgal.

shew you a thing. And

called out to
Jonathan and his
armor-bearer, “Come on up, and we will teach you a
lesson!” “Follow me,”
Jonathan told his
armor-bearer, “for the LORD has delivered them into the hand of Israel.”

Call the roll and see who has left us.” And when they had

armor-bearer were not there.

called back, “Is that your voice, David my son?” Then Saul
wept aloudAnd David
cried to the people, and to

Ner, saying, Answerest thou not,
Abner? Then
Abner answered and said, Who art thou that criest to the king?

shouted to the troops and to
Abner son of
Ner, “Will you not answer me,
Abner?” “Who
calls to the king?”

And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am
sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have
called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do.
Then Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?” “I am deeply distressed,” replied Saul. “The Philistines are fighting against me, and God has turned away from me. He no longer answers me, either by prophets or by dreams. So I have called on you to tell me what to do.”
Then Achish called David, and said unto him, Surely, as the LORD liveth, thou hast been upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the host is good in my sight: for I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming unto me unto this day: nevertheless the lords favour thee not.
So Achish summoned David and told him, “As surely as the LORD lives, you have been upright in my sight, and it seems right that you should march in and out with me in the army, because I have found no fault in you from the day you came to me until this day. But you have no favor in the sight of the leaders.

Then each man
grabbed his
opponent by the head and thrust his sword into his
opponent’s side, and they all fell together. So this place, which is in
Gibeon, is
called Helkath-hazzurim.
Then
Abner called to
Joab, and said, Shall the sword
devour for ever? knowest thou not that it will be bitterness in the latter end? how long shall it be then,
ere thou
bid the people return from following their brethren?
Then
Abner called out to
Joab: “Must the sword
devour forever? Do you not
realize that this will only end in bitterness? How long before you tell the troops to stop pursuing their brothers?”

Perez-uzzah, as it is
called to this day.

And there was a servant of Saul’s family named Ziba. They summoned him to David, and the king inquired, “Are you Ziba?” “I am your servant,” he replied.
Then the king
called to Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said unto him, I have given unto thy master’s son all that

Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and
encamp against the city, and take it: lest I take the city, and it be
called after my name.

assemble the rest of the troops, lay siege to the city, and capture it. Otherwise I will capture the city, and it will be named after me.”
Then he
called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and

So
Joab came to the king, and told him: and when he had
called for
Absalom, he came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king: and the king
kissed Absalom.
So
Joab went and told the king, and David summoned
Absalom, who came to him and bowed facedown before him. Then the king
kissed Absalom.
And
Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate: and it was so, that when any man that had a controversy came to the king for judgment, then
Absalom called unto him, and said, Of what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.
He would get up early and stand beside the road leading to the city gate. Whenever
anyone had a
grievance to bring before the king for a decision,
Absalom would
call out and ask, “What city are you from?” And if he replied, “Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel,”
And with
Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem, that were
called; and they went in their simplicity, and they knew not any thing.
Two hundred men from Jerusalem accompanied
Absalom. They had been invited as guests and they went along innocently, for they knew nothing about the matter.
Then said
Absalom,
Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he saith.
Then
Absalom said, “
Summon Hushai the Archite as well, and let us hear what he too has to say.”
Now
Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a
pillar, which is in the king’s
dale: for he said, I have no son to keep my name in
remembrance: and he
called the
pillar after his own name: and it is
called unto this day,
Absalom’s place.
During his lifetime,
Absalom had set up for himself a
pillar in the King’s Valley, for he had said, “I have no son to preserve the memory of my name.” So he gave the
pillar his name, and to this day it is
called Absalom’s Monument.
And the
watchman cried, and told the king. And the king said, If he be alone, there is
tidings in his mouth. And he came
apace, and drew near.

runner drew near,

watchman saw another man running: and the
watchman called unto the porter, and said, Behold another man running alone. And the king said, He also bringeth

Ahimaaz called out to the king, “All is well!” And he bowed facedown before the king. He continued, “Blessed be the LORD your God! He has delivered up the men who raised their hands against my lord the king.”
Then
cried a wise woman out of the city, Hear, hear; say, I pray you, unto
Joab, Come near
hither, that I may speak with thee.
a wise woman
called out from the city, “
Listen!
Listen! Please tell
Joab to come here so that I may speak with him.”
And the king
called the Gibeonites, and said unto them; (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the
remnant of the
Amorites; and the children of Israel had
sworn unto them: and Saul sought to
slay them in his zeal to the children of Israel and Judah.)
At this, David summoned the Gibeonites and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not Israelites, but a
remnant of the
Amorites. The Israelites had taken an oath concerning them, but in his zeal for Israel and Judah, Saul had sought to kill them.)
I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

sware to him by the LORD, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.

Benjamite from Bahurim who is with you. He
called down bitter curses against me on the day I went to
Mahanaim, but when he came down to meet me at the Jordan, I
swore to him by the LORD: ‘I will never put you to the sword.’

called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any
whither.
