'Reason' in the Bible

so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of Yahweh filled the house of God.

and he said, "Listen, all Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you king Jehoshaphat. Thus says Yahweh to you, 'Don't be afraid, neither be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.

and you shall have great sickness by disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.'"

It happened, in process of time, at the end of two years, that his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of severe diseases. His people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
