King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Now in the twenty[H6242] and fourth[H702] day[H3117] of this[H2088] month[H2320] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] were assembled[H622] with fasting,[H6685] and with sackclothes,[H8242] and earth[H127] upon[H5921] them.

2. And the seed[H2233] of Israel[H3478] separated themselves[H914] from all[H4480] [H3605] strangers,[H1121] [H5236] and stood[H5975] and confessed[H3034] [H5921] their sins,[H2403] and the iniquities[H5771] of their fathers.[H1]

3. And they stood up[H6965] in[H5921] their place,[H5977] and read[H7121] in the book[H5612] of the law[H8451] of the LORD[H3068] their God[H430] one fourth[H7243] part of the day;[H3117] and another fourth[H7243] part they confessed,[H3034] and worshiped[H7812] the LORD[H3068] their God.[H430]

4. Then stood up[H6965] upon[H5921] the stairs,[H4608] of the Levites,[H3881] Jeshua,[H3442] and Bani,[H1137] Kadmiel,[H6934] Shebaniah,[H7645] Bunni,[H1138] Sherebiah,[H8274] Bani,[H1137] and Chenani,[H3662] and cried[H2199] with a loud[H1419] voice[H6963] unto[H413] the LORD[H3068] their God.[H430]

5. Then the Levites,[H3881] Jeshua,[H3442] and Kadmiel,[H6934] Bani,[H1137] Hashabniah,[H2813] Sherebiah,[H8274] Hodijah,[H1941] Shebaniah,[H7645] and Pethahiah,[H6611] said,[H559] Stand up[H6965] and bless[H1288] [H853] the LORD[H3068] your God[H430] forever[H4480] [H5769] and[H5704] ever:[H5769] and blessed[H1288] be thy glorious[H3519] name,[H8034] which is exalted[H7311] above[H5921] all[H3605] blessing[H1293] and praise.[H8416]

6. Thou,[H859] even thou,[H1931] art LORD[H3068] alone;[H905] thou[H859] hast made[H6213] [H853] heaven,[H8064] the heaven[H8064] of heavens,[H8064] with all[H3605] their host,[H6635] the earth,[H776] and all[H3605] things that[H834] are therein,[H5921] the seas,[H3220] and all[H3605] that[H834] is therein, and thou[H859] preservest[H2421] [H853] them all;[H3605] and the host[H6635] of heaven[H8064] worshipeth[H7812] thee.

7. Thou[H859] art the LORD[H3068] the God,[H430] who[H834] didst choose[H977] Abram,[H87] and broughtest him forth[H3318] out of Ur[H4480] [H218] of the Chaldees,[H3778] and gavest[H7760] him the name[H8034] of Abraham;[H85]

8. And foundest[H4672] [H853] his heart[H3824] faithful[H539] before[H6440] thee, and madest[H3772] a covenant[H1285] with[H5973] him to give[H5414] [H853] the land[H776] of the Canaanites,[H3669] the Hittites,[H2850] the Amorites,[H567] and the Perizzites,[H6522] and the Jebusites,[H2983] and the Girgashites,[H1622] to give[H5414] it, I say, to his seed,[H2233] and hast performed[H6965] [H853] thy words;[H1697] for[H3588] thou[H859] art righteous: [H6662]

9. And didst see[H7200] [H853] the affliction[H6040] of our fathers[H1] in Egypt,[H4714] and heardest[H8085] their cry[H2201] by[H5921] the Red[H5488] sea;[H3220]

10. And showedst[H5414] signs[H226] and wonders[H4159] upon Pharaoh,[H6547] and on all[H3605] his servants,[H5650] and on all[H3605] the people[H5971] of his land:[H776] for[H3588] thou knewest[H3045] that[H3588] they dealt proudly[H2102] against[H5921] them. So didst thou get[H6213] thee a name,[H8034] as it is this[H2088] day.[H3117]

11. And thou didst divide[H1234] the sea[H3220] before[H6440] them, so that they went through[H5674] the midst[H8432] of the sea[H3220] on the dry land;[H3004] and their persecutors[H7291] thou threwest[H7993] into the deeps,[H4688] as[H3644] a stone[H68] into the mighty[H5794] waters.[H4325]

12. Moreover thou leddest[H5148] them in the day[H3119] by a cloudy[H6051] pillar;[H5982] and in the night[H3915] by a pillar[H5982] of fire,[H784] to give them light[H215] in[H853] the way[H1870] wherein[H834] they should go.[H1980]

13. Thou camest down[H3381] also upon[H5921] mount[H2022] Sinai,[H5514] and spakest[H1696] with[H5973] them from heaven,[H4480] [H8064] and gavest[H5414] them right[H3477] judgments,[H4941] and true[H571] laws,[H8451] good[H2896] statutes[H2706] and commandments: [H4687]

14. And madest known[H3045] unto them thy holy[H6944] sabbath,[H7676] and commandedst[H6680] them precepts,[H4687] statutes,[H2706] and laws,[H8451] by the hand[H3027] of Moses[H4872] thy servant: [H5650]

15. And gavest[H5414] them bread[H3899] from heaven[H4480] [H8064] for their hunger,[H7458] and broughtest forth[H3318] water[H4325] for them out of the rock[H4480] [H5553] for their thirst,[H6772] and promisedst[H559] them that they should go in[H935] to possess[H3423] [H853] the land[H776] which[H834] thou hadst sworn[H5375] [H853] [H3027] to give[H5414] them.

16. But they[H1992] and our fathers[H1] dealt proudly,[H2102] and hardened[H7185] [H853] their necks,[H6203] and hearkened[H8085] not[H3808] to[H413] thy commandments,[H4687]

17. And refused[H3985] to obey,[H8085] neither[H3808] were mindful[H2142] of thy wonders[H6381] that[H834] thou didst[H6213] among[H5973] them; but hardened[H7185] [H853] their necks,[H6203] and in their rebellion[H4805] appointed[H5414] a captain[H7218] to return[H7725] to their bondage:[H5659] but thou[H859] art a God[H433] ready to pardon,[H5547] gracious[H2587] and merciful,[H7349] slow[H750] to anger,[H639] and of great[H7227] kindness,[H2617] and forsookest[H5800] them not.[H3808]

18. Yea,[H637] when[H3588] they had made[H6213] them a molten[H4541] calf,[H5695] and said,[H559] This[H2088] is thy God[H430] that[H834] brought thee up[H5927] out of Egypt,[H4480] [H4714] and had wrought[H6213] great[H1419] provocations;[H5007]

19. Yet thou[H859] in thy manifold[H7227] mercies[H7356] forsookest[H5800] them not[H3808] in the wilderness:[H4057] [H853] the pillar[H5982] of the cloud[H6051] departed[H5493] not[H3808] from[H4480] [H5921] them by day,[H3119] to lead[H5148] them in the way;[H1870] neither the pillar[H5982] of fire[H784] by night,[H3915] to show them light,[H215] and the way[H1870] wherein[H834] they should go.[H1980]

20. Thou gavest[H5414] also thy good[H2896] spirit[H7307] to instruct[H7919] them, and withheldest[H4513] not[H3808] thy manna[H4478] from their mouth,[H4480] [H6310] and gavest[H5414] them water[H4325] for their thirst.[H6772]

21. Yea, forty[H705] years[H8141] didst thou sustain[H3557] them in the wilderness,[H4057] so that they lacked[H2637] nothing;[H3808] their clothes[H8008] waxed not old,[H1086] [H3808] and their feet[H7272] swelled[H1216] not.[H3808]

22. Moreover thou gavest[H5414] them kingdoms[H4467] and nations,[H5971] and didst divide[H2505] them into corners:[H6285] so they possessed[H3423] [H853] the land[H776] of Sihon,[H5511] and the land[H776] of the king[H4428] of Heshbon,[H2809] and the land[H776] of Og[H5747] king[H4428] of Bashan.[H1316]

23. Their children[H1121] also multipliedst[H7235] thou as the stars[H3556] of heaven,[H8064] and broughtest[H935] them into[H413] the land,[H776] concerning which[H834] thou hadst promised[H559] to their fathers,[H1] that they should go in[H935] to possess[H3423] it.

24. So the children[H1121] went in[H935] and possessed[H3423] [H853] the land,[H776] and thou subduedst[H3665] before[H6440] them[H853] the inhabitants[H3427] of the land,[H776] the Canaanites,[H3669] and gavest[H5414] them into their hands,[H3027] with their kings,[H4428] and the people[H5971] of the land,[H776] that they might do[H6213] with them as they would.[H7522]

25. And they took[H3920] strong[H1219] cities,[H5892] and a fat[H8082] land,[H127] and possessed[H3423] houses[H1004] full[H4392] of all[H3605] goods,[H2898] wells[H953] digged,[H2672] vineyards,[H3754] and oliveyards,[H2132] and fruit[H3978] trees[H6086] in abundance:[H7230] so they did eat,[H398] and were filled,[H7646] and became fat,[H8080] and delighted themselves[H5727] in thy great[H1419] goodness.[H2898]

26. Nevertheless they were disobedient,[H4784] and rebelled[H4775] against thee, and cast[H7993] [H853] thy law[H8451] behind[H310] their backs,[H1458] and slew[H2026] thy prophets[H5030] which[H834] testified[H5749] against them to turn[H7725] them to[H413] thee, and they wrought[H6213] great[H1419] provocations.[H5007]

27. Therefore thou deliveredst[H5414] them into the hand[H3027] of their enemies,[H6862] who vexed[H6887] them: and in the time[H6256] of their trouble,[H6869] when they cried[H6817] unto[H413] thee, thou[H859] heardest[H8085] them from heaven;[H4480] [H8064] and according to thy manifold[H7227] mercies[H7356] thou gavest[H5414] them saviors,[H3467] who saved[H3467] them out of the hand[H4480] [H3027] of their enemies.[H6862]

28. But after they had rest,[H5117] they did[H6213] evil[H7451] again[H7725] before[H6440] thee: therefore leftest[H5800] thou them in the hand[H3027] of their enemies,[H341] so that they had the dominion[H7287] over them: yet when they returned,[H7725] and cried[H2199] unto thee, thou[H859] heardest[H8085] them from heaven;[H4480] [H8064] and many[H7227] times[H6256] didst thou deliver[H5337] them according to thy mercies;[H7356]

29. And testifiedst[H5749] against them, that thou mightest bring them again[H7725] unto[H413] thy law:[H8451] yet they[H1992] dealt proudly,[H2102] and hearkened[H8085] not[H3808] unto thy commandments,[H4687] but sinned[H2398] against thy judgments,[H4941] (which[H834] if a man[H120] do,[H6213] he shall live[H2421] in them;) and withdrew[H5414] [H5637] the shoulder,[H3802] and hardened[H7185] their neck,[H6203] and would not[H3808] hear.[H8085]

30. Yet many[H7227] years[H8141] didst thou forbear[H4900] [H5921] them, and testifiedst[H5749] against them by thy spirit[H7307] in[H3027] thy prophets:[H5030] yet would they not[H3808] give ear:[H238] therefore gavest[H5414] thou them into the hand[H3027] of the people[H5971] of the lands.[H776]

31. Nevertheless for thy great[H7227] mercies'[H7356] sake thou didst not[H3808] utterly consume[H6213] [H3617] them, nor[H3808] forsake[H5800] them; for[H3588] thou[H859] art a gracious[H2587] and merciful[H7349] God.[H410]

32. Now[H6258] therefore, our God,[H430] the great,[H1419] the mighty,[H1368] and the terrible[H3372] God,[H410] who keepest[H8104] covenant[H1285] and mercy,[H2617] let not[H408] [H853] all[H3605] the trouble[H8513] seem little[H4591] before[H6440] thee, that[H834] hath come upon[H4672] us, on our kings,[H4428] on our princes,[H8269] and on our priests,[H3548] and on our prophets,[H5030] and on our fathers,[H1] and on all[H3605] thy people,[H5971] since the time[H4480] [H3117] of the kings[H4428] of Assyria[H804] unto[H5704] this[H2088] day.[H3117]

33. Howbeit thou[H859] art just[H6662] in[H5921] all[H3605] that is brought[H935] upon[H5921] us; for[H3588] thou hast done[H6213] right,[H571] but we[H587] have done wickedly: [H7561]

34. Neither have our kings,[H4428] our princes,[H8269] our priests,[H3548] nor[H3808] our fathers,[H1] kept[H6213] thy law,[H8451] nor[H3808] hearkened[H7181] unto[H413] thy commandments[H4687] and thy testimonies,[H5715] wherewith[H834] thou didst testify[H5749] against them.

35. For they[H1992] have not[H3808] served[H5647] thee in their kingdom,[H4438] and in thy great[H7227] goodness[H2898] that[H834] thou gavest[H5414] them, and in the large[H7342] and fat[H8082] land[H776] which[H834] thou gavest[H5414] before[H6440] them, neither[H3808] turned[H7725] they from their wicked[H7451] works.[H4480] [H4611]

36. Behold,[H2009] we[H587] are servants[H5650] this day,[H3117] and for the land[H776] that[H834] thou gavest[H5414] unto our fathers[H1] to eat[H398] [H853] the fruit[H6529] thereof and the good[H2898] thereof, behold,[H2009] we[H587] are servants[H5650] in[H5921] it:

37. And it yieldeth much[H7235] increase[H8393] unto the kings[H4428] whom[H834] thou hast set[H5414] over[H5921] us because of our sins:[H2403] also they have dominion[H4910] over[H5921] our bodies,[H1472] and over our cattle,[H929] at their pleasure,[H7522] and we[H587] are in great[H1419] distress.[H6869]

38. And because of all[H3605] this[H2063] we[H587] make[H3772] a sure[H548] covenant, and write[H3789] it; and our princes,[H8269] Levites,[H3881] and priests,[H3548] seal[H2856] [H5921] unto it.
