1 Samuel
2:2
There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
2:3
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
2:4
The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
2:6
The LORD killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up.
2:7
The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
2:8
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, and he hath set the world upon them.
2:9
He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
2:10
The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
2:24
Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: ye make the LORD'S people to transgress.
2:25
If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the LORD would slay them.
2:30
Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed. |
