His brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.

You shall make a window for the ark, and finish it to a cubit from the top; and set the door of the ark in the side of it; you shall make it with lower, second, and third decks.

Why did you flee secretly and deceive me, and did not tell me so that I might have sent you away with joy and with songs, with timbrel and with lyre;

So it came about at evening that the quails came up and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp.

When the layer of dew evaporated, behold, on the surface of the wilderness there was a fine flake-like thing, fine as the frost on the ground.

and the priest shall look, and behold, if it appears to be lower than the skin, and the hair on it has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is the infection of leprosy, it has broken out in the boil.

But if the priest looks at it, and behold, there are no white hairs in it and it is not lower than the skin and is faded, then the priest shall isolate him for seven days;

The alien who is among you shall rise above you higher and higher, but you will go down lower and lower.

and in the valley, Beth-haram and Beth-nimrah and Succoth and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, with the Jordan as a border, as far as the lower end of the Sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan to the east.

Their south border was from the lower end of the Salt Sea, from the bay that turns to the south.

Then she said, “Give me a blessing; since you have given me the land of the Negev, give me also springs of water.” So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

It went down westward to the territory of the Japhletites, as far as the territory of lower Beth-horon even to Gezer, and it ended at the sea.

From there the border continued to Luz, to the side of Luz (that is, Bethel) southward; and the border went down to Ataroth-addar, near the hill which lies on the south of lower Beth-horon.

She said to him, “Give me a blessing, since you have given me the land of the Negev, give me also springs of water.” So Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

Afterward you will come to the hill of God where the Philistine garrison is; and it shall be as soon as you have come there to the city, that you will meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place with harp, tambourine, flute, and a lyre before them, and they will be prophesying.

So Solomon rebuilt Gezer and the lower Beth-horon

His daughter was Sheerah, who built lower and upper Beth-horon, also Uzzen-sheerah.

He also built upper Beth-horon and lower Beth-horon, fortified cities with walls, gates and bars;

with three layers of huge stones and one layer of timbers. And let the cost be paid from the royal treasury.

“Now if it is not so, who can prove me a liar,
And make my speech worthless?”

“Then the beast goes into its lair
And remains in its den.

When they crouch in their dens
And lie in wait in their lair?

“His heart is as hard as a stone,
Even as hard as a lower millstone.

Yet You have made him a little lower than God,
And You crown him with glory and majesty!

He lurks in a hiding place as a lion in his lair;
He lurks to catch the afflicted;
He catches the afflicted when he draws him into his net.

Give thanks to the Lord with the lyre;
Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings.

Then I will go to the altar of God,
To God my exceeding joy;
And upon the lyre I shall praise You, O God, my God.

Awake, my glory!
Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.

I will also praise You with a harp,
Even Your truth, O my God;
To You I will sing praises with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.

Raise a song, strike the timbrel,
The sweet sounding lyre with the harp.

With the ten-stringed lute and with the harp,
With resounding music upon the lyre.

Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
With the lyre and the sound of melody.

Awake, harp and lyre;
I will awaken the dawn!

Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving;
Sing praises to our God on the lyre,

Let them praise His name with dancing;
Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.

Praise Him with trumpet sound;
Praise Him with harp and lyre.

An evildoer listens to wicked lips;
A liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.

What is desirable in a man is his kindness,
And it is better to be a poor man than a liar.

For it is better that it be said to you, “Come up here,”
Than for you to be placed lower in the presence of the prince,
Whom your eyes have seen.

Do not add to His words
Or He will reprove you, and you will be proved a liar.

Their banquets are accompanied by lyre and harp, by tambourine and flute, and by wine;
But they do not pay attention to the deeds of the Lord,
Nor do they consider the work of His hands.

And you saw that the breaches
In the wall of the city of David were many;
And you collected the waters of the lower pool.

Shout for joy, O heavens, for the Lord has done it!
Shout joyfully, you lower parts of the earth;
Break forth into a shout of joy, you mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it;
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob
And in Israel He shows forth His glory.

then I will bring you down with those who go down to the pit, to the people of old, and I will make you dwell in the lower parts of the earth, like the ancient waste places, with those who go down to the pit, so that you will not be inhabited; but I will set glory in the land of the living.

“Elam is there and all her hordes around her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who went down uncircumcised to the lower parts of the earth, who instilled their terror in the land of the living and bore their disgrace with those who went down to the pit.

The pavement (that is, the lower pavement) was by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates.

Then he measured the width from the front of the lower gate to the front of the exterior of the inner court, a hundred cubits on the east and on the north.

Now the upper chambers were smaller because the galleries took more space away from them than from the lower and middle ones in the building.

For they were in three stories and had no pillars like the pillars of the courts; therefore the upper chambers were set back from the ground upward, more than the lower and middle ones.

From the base on the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits and the width one cubit; and from the smaller ledge to the larger ledge shall be four cubits and the width one cubit.

that at the moment you hear the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe and all kinds of music, you are to fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has set up.

Therefore at that time, when all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe and all kinds of music, all the peoples, nations and men of every language fell down and worshiped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

You, O king, have made a decree that every man who hears the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery, and bagpipe and all kinds of music, is to fall down and worship the golden image.

Now if you are ready, at the moment you hear the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery and bagpipe and all kinds of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, very well. But if you do not worship, you will immediately be cast into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire; and what god is there who can deliver you out of my hands?”

One of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him,

And a lawyer stood up and put Him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

and you have not come to know Him, but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know Him and keep His word.

May it never be! Rather, let God be found true, though every man be found a liar, as it is written,
“That You may be justified in Your words,
And prevail when You are judged.”

(Now this expression, “He ascended,” what does it mean except that He also had descended into the lower parts of the earth?

Diligently help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way so that nothing is lacking for them.

“You have made him for a little while lower than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
And have appointed him over the works of Your hands;

But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.

The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.

If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.

The one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son.
