What shall

But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? God, who inflicts wrath, [is] not unjust, [is he]? (I am speaking according to a human perspective.)

What then shall we say [that] Abraham, our ancestor according to the flesh, has found?

What therefore shall we say? Shall we continue in sin, in order that grace may increase?

What then shall we say? [Is] the law sin? May it never be! But I would not have known sin except through the law, for I would not have known covetousness if the law had not said, "Do not covet."

The time

Now there are also many other [things] that Jesus did, which--if they were written down one after the other--I suppose not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written.

David

Then Yahweh said to Samuel, "{How long} will you mourn about Saul? I have rejected him from being king over Israel! Fill up your horn [with] oil and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have chosen a king for myself among his sons."

"Men [and] brothers, it is possible to speak with confidence to you about the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us until this day.

And [after] removing him, he raised up David for their king, about whom he also said, testifying, 'I have found David the [son] of Jesse [to be] a man in accordance with my heart, who will carry out all my will.'

Samuel

{In due time}, Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She called his name Samuel, for [she said], "I requested him from Yahweh."

Then Elkanah went to Ramah, to his house. Now the boy was serving Yahweh {in the presence of} Eli the priest.

(Now Samuel had died, and all Israel had mourned for him, and they had buried him in Ramah, his [own] city. And Saul had expelled the mediums and the soothsayers from the land.)

Moses and Aaron [were] among his priests; Samuel also [was] among [those who] called on his name. They called to Yahweh, and he answered them.

Then Yahweh said to me, "[Even] if Moses and Samuel stood {before me}, my heart [would] not [be] to this people. Send [them] away from my {sight}, and let them go out.

And indeed, all the prophets from Samuel and all those who followed [him] have spoken [about] and proclaimed these days.

[This took] about four hundred and fifty years. And after these [things], he gave [them] judges until Samuel the prophet.

The prophets

Rejoice and be glad, because your reward [is] great in heaven, for in the [same] way they persecuted the prophets before you.

In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but yourselves thrown outside!

But he said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone rises from the dead.'"

To this one all the prophets testify, [that] through his name everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins."

Brothers, take [as an] example of perseverance and endurance the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

Concerning this salvation, the prophets who prophesied about the grace meant for you sought and made careful inquiry,

for no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men carried along by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.

to remember the words proclaimed beforehand by the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles,

General references

And Yahweh threw Sisera and all his chariots and army into confusion before {the edge of Barak's sword}; and Sisera dismounted from [his] chariot and fled on foot.

[But] look, I have made your face hard {against} their faces and your forehead hard {against} their forehead.
