A secret feeling of worship came into my heart, and my hand gave kisses from my mouth;

But you said in my hearing, and your voice came to my ears:

Or where were you when the sea came to birth, pushing out from its secret place;

Out of whose body came the ice? and who gave birth to the cold mist of heaven?

And it came about, after he had said these words to Job, that the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, I am very angry with you and your two friends, because you have not said what is right about me, as my servant Job has.

And all his brothers and sisters, and his friends of earlier days, came and took food with him in his house; and made clear their grief for him, and gave him comfort for all the evil which the Lord had sent on him; and they all gave him a bit of money and a gold ring.

And the Lord's blessing was greater on the end of Job's life than on its start: and so he came to have fourteen thousand sheep and goats, and six thousand camels, and two thousand oxen, and a thousand she-asses.

And Job came to his end, old and full of days.

The cords of hell were round me: the nets of death came on me.

In my trouble my voice went up to the Lord, and my cry to my God: my voice came to his hearing in his holy Temple, and my prayer came before him, even into his ears.

Then trouble and shock came on the earth; and the bases of the mountains were moved and shaking, because he was angry.

They came on me in the day of my trouble; but the Lord was my support.

When evil-doers, even my haters, came on me to put an end to me, they were broken and put to shame.

Even if an army came against me with its tents, my heart would have no fear: if war was made on me, my faith would not be moved.

This poor man's cry came before the Lord, and he gave him salvation from all his troubles.

But as for me, when they were ill I put on the clothing of sorrow: I went without food and was sad, and my prayer came back again to my heart.

But they took pleasure in my trouble, and came together, yes, low persons came together against me without my knowledge; they never came to an end of wounding me.

But he came to an end, and there was no sign of him; I made a search for him and he was not there.

Keeping the word which came from my lips, and which my mouth said, when I was in trouble.

He made streams come out of the rock; and waters came flowing down like rivers.

See, the rock was cut open by his power, so that the water came rushing out, and overflowing streams; is he able to give us bread? is he able to get meat for his people?

So these things came to the Lord's ears, and he was angry; and a fire was lighted against Jacob, and wrath came up against Israel;

The wrath of God came on them, and put to death the fattest of them, and put an end to the young men of Israel.

When this came to God's ears he was very angry, and gave up Israel completely;

But to you did I send up my cry, O Lord; in the morning my prayer came before you.

Then your voice came to your holy one in a vision, saying, I have put the crown on a strong one, lifting up one taken from among the people.

His voice came to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his witness, and the law which he gave them.

The mountains came up and the valleys went down into the place which you had made ready for them.

Till the time when his word came true; he was tested by the word of the Lord.

Then Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob was living in the land of Ham.

He gave the word, and there came the dog-fly, and insects over all the land.

At his word the locusts came, and young locusts more than might be numbered,

His hand made the rock open, and the waters came streaming out; they went down through the dry places like a river.

And the waters went over their haters; all of them came to an end.

But when their cry came to his ears, he had pity on their trouble:

When Israel came out of Egypt, the children of Jacob from a people whose language was strange to them;

When my cry came to your ears you gave me an answer, and made me great with strength in my soul.

By his knowledge the deep was parted, and dew came dropping from the skies.

And the woman came out to him, in the dress of a loose woman, with a designing heart;

So I came out in the hope of meeting you, looking for you with care, and now I have you.

The sun comes up and the sun goes down, and goes quickly back to the place where he came up.

Then I came back, and I saw an example of what is to no purpose under the sun.

As he came from his mother at birth, so does he go again; he gets from his work no reward which he may take away in his hand.

And this again is a great evil, that in all points as he came so will he go; and what profit has he in working for the wind?

In wind it came and to the dark it will go, and with the dark will its name be covered.

There was a little town and the number of its men was small, and there came a great king against it and made an attack on it, building works of war round about it.

The watchmen who go about the town came by me; to them I said, Have you seen him who is my heart's desire?

I was but a little way from them, when I came face to face with him who is the love of my soul. I took him by the hands, and did not let him go, till I had taken him into my mother's house, and into the room of her who gave me birth.

Oh that you were my brother, who took milk from my mother's breasts! When I came to you in the street, I would give you kisses; yes, I would not be looked down on.

Then a winged one came to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from off the altar with the fire-spoon.

And the voice of the Lord came to my ears, saying, Whom am I to send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Here am I, send me.

Now it came about in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin, the king of Aram, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but were not able to overcome it.

And word came to the family of David that Aram had put up its tents in Ephraim. And the king's heart, and the hearts of his people, were moved, like the trees of the wood shaking in the wind.

And there will be a highway for the rest of his people from Assyria; as there was for Israel in the day when he came up out of the land of Egypt.

In the year of the death of King Ahaz this word came to the prophet:

For the fields of Heshbon are waste, the vine of Sibmah is dead; the lords of nations were overcome by the produce of her vines; her vine-plants went as far as Jazer, and came even to the waste land; her branches were stretched out to the sea.

In the year when the Tartan came to Ashdod, sent by Sargon, king of Assyria, and made war against it and took it;

At that time the word of the Lord came to Isaiah, the son of Amoz, saying, Go, and take off your robe, and your shoes from your feet; and he did so, walking unclothed and without shoes on his feet.

O my crushed ones, the grain of my floor! I have given you the word which came to me from the Lord of armies, the God of Israel.

And Elam was armed with arrows, and Aram came on horseback; and the breastplate of Kir was uncovered.

See, the men of war are sorrowing outside the town: those who came looking for peace are weeping bitterly.

And it came about in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah that Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came up against all the walled towns of Judah and took them.

And there came out to him Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder.

Then Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothing parted as a sign of grief, and gave him an account of what the Rab-shakeh had said.

So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.

And when news came to him that Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, had made an attack on him, ... And he sent representatives to Hezekiah, king of Judah, saying,

Because your wrath against me and your pride have come to my ears, I will put my hook in your nose and my cord in your lips, and I will make you go back by the way you came.

By the way he came he will go back, and he will not get into this town.

And it came about, when he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer put him to death with the sword, and they went in flight into the land of Ararat. And Esar-haddon, his son, became king in his place.

In those days Hezekiah was ill and near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, The Lord says, Put your house in order; for your death is near.

Then the word of the Lord came to Isaiah, saying,

Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, What did these men say, and where did they come from? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, even from Babylon.

The sea-lands saw it, and were in fear; the ends of the earth were shaking: they came near.

I gave word in the past of the things which came about; they came from my mouth, and I made them clear: suddenly I did them, and they came about.

For this reason I made it clear to you in the past, before it came I gave you word of it: for fear that you might say, My god did these things, and my pictured and metal images made them come about.

They had no need of water when he was guiding them through the waste lands: he made water come out of the rock for them: the rock was parted and the waters came flowing out.

Why, then, when I came, was there no man? and no one to give answer to my voice? has my hand become feeble, so that it is unable to take up your cause? or have I no power to make you free? See, at my word the sea becomes dry, I make the rivers a waste land: their fish are dead for need of water, and make an evil smell.

Let your thoughts be turned to Abraham, your father, and to Sarah, who gave you birth: for when he was but one, my voice came to him, and I gave him my blessing, and made him a great people.

Then the early days came to their minds, the days of Moses his servant: and they said, Where is he who made the keeper of his flock come up from the sea? where is he who put his holy spirit among them,

Before her pains came, she gave birth; before her pains, she gave birth to a man-child.

Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Jeremiah, what do you see? And I said, I see a branch of an almond-tree.

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

Israel was holy to the Lord, the first-fruits of his increase: all who made attacks on him were judged as wrongdoers, evil came on them, says the Lord.

And I took you into a fertile land, where you were living on its fruit and its wealth; but when you came in, you made my land unclean, and made my heritage a disgusting thing.

The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

And now, because you have done all these works, says the Lord, and I sent my word to you, getting up early and sending, but you did not give ear; and my voice came to you, but you gave no answer:

From the day when your fathers came out of Egypt till this day, I have sent my servants the prophets to you, getting up early every day and sending them:

And they have put up the high place of Topheth in the valley of the son of Hinnom, burning their sons and their daughters there in the fire; a thing which was not ordered by me and never came into my mind.

We were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there is only a great fear.

The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah when there was no water.
