Nehemiah 5:14-7:73
1 Corinthians 8:1-13
Psalm 33:1-11
Proverbs 21:8-10
Neh 5:14 Moreover from
the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from
the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king,
that is, twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the
governor.
Neh 5:15 But the former
governors that had been before me were chargeable unto the people, and
had taken of them bread and wine, beside forty shekels of silver; yea, even
their servants bare rule over the people: but so did not I, because of the fear
of God.
Neh 5:16 Yea, also I
continued in the work of this wall, neither bought we any land: and all my
servants were gathered thither unto the work.
Neh 5:17 Moreover there
were at my table an hundred and fifty of the Jews and rulers, beside those
that came unto us from among the heathen that are about us.
Neh 5:18 Now that
which was prepared for me daily was one ox and six choice
sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in ten days store of all sorts
of wine: yet for all this required not I the bread of the governor, because the
bondage was heavy upon this people.
Neh 5:19 Think upon me,
my God, for good, according to all that I have done for this
people.
Neh 6:1 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;)
Neh 6:2 That Sanballat
and Geshem sent unto me, saying, Come, let us meet together in some one of
the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief.
Neh 6:3 And I sent
messengers unto them, saying, I am doing a great work, so that I cannot
come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to
you?
Neh 6:4 Yet they sent
unto me four times after this sort; and I answered them after the same
manner.
Neh 6:5 Then sent Sanballat
his servant unto me in like manner the fifth time with an open letter in his
hand;
Neh 6:6 Wherein was
written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith it, that
thou and the Jews think to rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall, that
thou mayest be their king, according to these words.
Neh 6:7 And thou hast
also appointed prophets to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, There is
a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported to the king according to these
words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together.
Neh 6:8 Then I sent
unto him, saying, There are no such things done as thou sayest, but thou
feignest them out of thine own heart.
Neh 6:9 For they all
made us afraid, saying, Their hands shall be weakened from the work, that it be
not done. Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands.
Neh 6:10 Afterward I
came unto the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who was
shut up; and he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the
temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple: for they will come to slay
thee; yea, in the night will they come to slay thee.
Neh 6:11 And I said,
Should such a man as I flee? and who is there, that, being as I am,
would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in.
Neh 6:12 And, lo, I
perceived that God had not sent him; but that he pronounced this prophecy
against me: for Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
Neh 6:13 Therefore was
he hired, that I should be afraid, and do so, and sin, and that they
might have matter for an evil report, that they might reproach me.
Neh 6:14 My God, think
thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and on the
prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in
fear.
Neh 6:15 So the wall
was finished in the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, in
fifty and two days.
Neh 6:16 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.
Neh 6:17 Moreover in
those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters unto Tobiah, and the
letters of Tobiah came unto them.
Neh 6:18 For there
were many in Judah sworn unto him, because he was the son in law of
Shechaniah the son of Arah; and his son Johanan had taken the daughter of
Meshullam the son of Berechiah.
Neh 6:19 Also they
reported his good deeds before me, and uttered my words to him. And
Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
Neh 7:1 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,
Neh 7:2 That I gave my
brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem:
for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
Neh 7:3 And I said unto
them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while
they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them: and appoint
watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to
be over against his house.
Neh 7:4 Now the city was
large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were
not builded.
Neh 7:5 And my God put
into mine heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people,
that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the
genealogy of them which came up at the first, and found written therein,
Neh 7:6 These are
the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity, of those that
had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried
away, and came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city;
Neh 7:7 Who came with
Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan,
Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number, I say, of the men of the

Neh 7:37 The children
of Lod, Hadid, and Ono, seven hundred twenty and one.
Neh 7:38 The children
of Senaah, three thousand nine hundred and thirty.
Neh 7:39 The priests:
the children of Jedaiah, of the house of Jeshua, nine hundred seventy and
three.
Neh 7:40 The children
of Immer, a thousand fifty and two.
Neh 7:41 The children
of Pashur, a thousand two hundred forty and seven.
Neh 7:42 The children

Neh 7:47 The children
of Keros, the children of Sia, the children of Padon,
Neh 7:48 The children
of Lebana, the children of Hagaba, the children of Shalmai,

Neh 7:50 The children
of Reaiah, the children of Rezin, the children of Nekoda,
Neh 7:51 The children
of Gazzam, the children of Uzza, the children of Phaseah,

Neh 7:56 The children

Neh 7:57 The children
of Solomon's servants: the children of Sotai, the children of Sophereth, the

of Jaala, the children of Darkon, the children of Giddel,
Neh 7:59 The children
of Shephatiah, the children of Hattil, the children of Pochereth of Zebaim, the
children of Amon.
Neh 7:60 All the
Nethinims, and the children of Solomon's servants, were three hundred
ninety and two.
Neh 7:61 And these were
they which went up also from Telmelah, Telharesha, Cherub, Addon, and
Immer: but they could not shew their father's house, nor their seed, whether
they were of Israel.
Neh 7:62 The children
of Delaiah, the children of Tobiah, the children of Nekoda, six hundred forty
and two.
Neh 7:63 And of the
priests: the children of Habaiah, the children of Koz, the children of
Barzillai, which took one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite to
wife, and was called after their name.
Neh 7:64 These sought
their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was
not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood.
Neh 7:65 And the
Tirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things,
till there stood up a priest with Urim and Thummim.
Neh 7:66 The whole
congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore,
Neh 7:67 Beside their
manservants and their maidservants, of whom there were seven thousand
three hundred thirty and seven: and they had two hundred forty and five singing
men and singing women.
Neh 7:68 Their horses,
seven hundred thirty and six: their mules, two hundred forty and five:
Neh 7:69 Their
camels, four hundred thirty and five: six thousand seven hundred and twenty
asses.
Neh 7:70 And some of
the chief of the fathers gave unto the work. The Tirshatha gave to the treasure
a thousand drams of gold, fifty basons, five hundred and thirty priests'
garments.
Neh 7:71 And some
of the chief of the fathers gave to the treasure of the work twenty thousand
drams of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pound of silver.
Neh 7:72 And that
which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand drams of gold, and
two thousand pound of silver, and threescore and seven priests' garments.
Neh 7:73 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.
1Co 8:1 Now as touching
things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge
puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
1Co 8:2 And if any man
think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to
know.
1Co 8:3 But if any man
love God, the same is known of him.
1Co 8:4 As concerning
therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols,
we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is
none other God but one.
1Co 8:5 For though
there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods
many, and lords many,)
1Co 8:6 But to us there
is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him;
and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
1Co 8:7 Howbeit there
is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol
unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their
conscience being weak is defiled.
1Co 8:8 But meat
commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither,
if we eat not, are we the worse.
1Co 8:9 But take heed
lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that
are weak.
1Co 8:10 For if any man
see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the
conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are
offered to idols;
1Co 8:11 And through
thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
1Co 8:12 But when ye
sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against
Christ.
1Co 8:13 Wherefore, if
meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth,
lest I make my brother to offend.
Psa 33:1 Rejoice in the
LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
Psa 33:2 Praise the
LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten
strings.
Psa 33:3 Sing unto him
a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
Psa 33:4 For the word
of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.
Psa 33:5 He loveth
righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the
LORD.
Psa 33:6 By the word of
the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his
mouth.
Psa 33:7 He gathereth
the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in
storehouses.
Psa 33:8 Let all the
earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of
him.
Psa 33:9 For he spake,
and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
Psa 33:10 The LORD
bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the
people of none effect.
Psa 33:11 The counsel
of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all
generations.
Pro 21:8 The way of man
is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is
right.
Pro 21:9 It is
better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a
wide house.
Pro 21:10 The soul of
the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes.
