'Ready' in the Bible
If a man turn not, he will whet his sword; He hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
For, lo, the wicked bend the bow, They make ready their arrow upon the string, That they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart;
For thou wilt make them turn their back; Thou wilt make ready with thy bowstrings against their face.
For I am ready to fall, And my sorrow is continually before me.
My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I speak the things which I have made touching the king: My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in lovingkindness unto all them that call upon thee.
I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: While I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.
Let thy hand be ready to help me; For I have chosen thy precepts.
