For the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."

¹ And Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for elders of Israel, and for their heads, judges and officers which presented themselves before God. ² And Joshua said unto all the people, "Thus sayeth the LORD God of Israel, 'Your fathers dwelt on the other side of the water in old time even Terah the father of Abraham and Nahor, and served strange gods. ³ But I took your father Abraham from the other side of the water, and brought him into the land of Canaan, and multiplied his seed, and gave him Isaac. ⁴ And I gave unto Isaac, Jacob and Esau. And I gave unto Esau mount Seir to possess it. But Jacob and his children went down into Egypt. ⁵ Then I sent Moses and Aaron. And I plagued Egypt, after the manner as I did among them, and after that I brought you out, ⁶ and I brought your fathers out of Egypt. And ye came unto the sea: and the Egyptians followed after your fathers with chariots and horsemen, unto the reed sea. ⁷ And they cried unto the LORD. And he put darkness between you and the Egyptians and brought the sea upon them and covered them. And your eyes have seen what I have done in Egypt. And ye dwelt in the wilderness a long season. ⁸ And I brought you into the land of the Amorites which dwelt on the other side Jordan. And they fought with you: and I gave them into your hands. And ye conquered their country. And I destroyed them in your sight. ⁹ Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab arose and warred against Israel, and sent and called Balaam the son of Beor for to curse you. ¹⁰ But I would not agree to hearken unto Balaam, and therefore he blessed you: And so I delivered you out of his hand. ¹¹ And when ye went over Jordan, and came unto Jericho, the citizens of Jericho fought against you: the Amorites, Perezites, Cananites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites, Jebusites which I delivered into your hands. ¹² And I sent hornets before you and ye cast out before you: even the two kings of the Amorites: but not with your own sword or with your own bow. ¹³ And I gave you a land in which ye did not labor, and cities which you built not, and ye dwelt in them. And vines, and olive trees which ye planted not, and ye ate of them. ¹⁴ And now, fear the LORD and serve him in pureness and truth: And put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the water, and in Egypt, and serve the LORD. ¹⁵ But if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, then choose you this day, whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served, that were on the other side of the water, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land, ye dwelt. As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." ¹⁶ And the people answered and said, "God forbid that we should forsake the LORD and serve strange gods. ¹⁷ For the LORD our God, he it is that brought us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, the house of bondage, and which did those miracles in our sight, and preserved us in all the way we went and among all the nations which we came through. ¹⁸ And the LORD did cast out before us all the nations with the Amorites which dwelt in the land, wherefore we will serve the LORD — for he is our God." ¹⁹ But Joshua said unto the people, "Ye cannot serve the LORD: for he is a holy God and cannot bear your transgression and sin. ²⁰ But when ye have forsaken the LORD and have served strange gods, he will turn and do you evil and consume you, after that he hath done you good." ²¹ And the people answered Joshua, "Nay, but we will serve the LORD." ²² Then Joshua said unto the folk, "Ye are witnesses unto yourselves, that ye have chosen you the LORD, to serve him." And they said, "We are witnesses." ²³ "Then put away," said he, "the strange gods which are among you, and bow your hearts unto the LORD God of Israel." ²⁴ And the people answered Joshua, "The LORD our God we will serve and his voice we will obey." ²⁵ And so Joshua made a covenant with the people the same day and set ordinances and laws before them in Shechem. ²⁶ And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God, and took a great stone and pitched it on end in the said place, even under an oak that stood in the sanctuary of the LORD. ²⁷ And Joshua said unto all the people, "Behold, this stone shall be a witness unto us for it hath heard all the words of the LORD which he spake with us. It shall be therefore a witness unto you, lest ye lie unto your God." ²⁸ And so Joshua let the people depart every man unto his inheritance. ²⁹ And after these things, the time came that Joshua the son of Nun and the servant of the LORD died being a hundredth and ten years old. ³⁰ Whom they buried in the country of his inheritance, even in Timnathserah which is in mount Ephraim, on the north side of the hill of Gaash. ³¹ And Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that overlived Joshua, and which had seen all the works of the LORD that he had done to Israel. ³² And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought out of Egypt, they buried in Shechem, in a parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem, for a hundredth pieces of silver, which parcel became the inheritance of the children of Joseph. ³³ And Eleazar the son of Aaron died, whom they buried in Gibeah that pertained to Phinehas his son and was given him in Mount Ephraim.

⁹ And Moses said unto Joshua, "Choose out men and go fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill and the rod of God in mine hand."

⁸ In the tribe of Ephraim, Hosea the son of Nun.

²¹ She shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus: For he shall save his people from their sins." ²² All this was done, to fulfill that which was spoken of the Lord by the Prophet saying, ²³ "Behold, a maiden shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is by interpretation, God with us."

⁴⁵ which tabernacle our fathers received, and brought it in with Joshua into the possession of the gentiles, which gentiles God drave out before the face of our fathers unto the time of David,

³ And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, "Bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the land."

²² And they departed and got them into the mountains, and there abode three days until the pursuers were returned. And the pursuers sought throughout all the way and found them not. ²³ And the two men returned and descended from the mountain and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun, and told him all that had chanced them.

¹¹ Now, my son, the LORD be with thee; that thou mayest prosper and build the house of the LORD thy God, as he hath said of thee.

²⁵ And they won their strong cities, and a fat land, and took possession of houses that were full of all manner goods, wells digged out, vineyards, olive gardens, and many fruitful trees: and they ate and were filled, and became fat, and lived in wealth through thy great goodness.

³⁵ and have not served thee in their kingdom, and in thy great goods that thou gavest them, and in the large and plenteous land which thou gavest them; and have not converted from their wicked works.

¹ Woe is me! I am become as one that goeth a gleaning in the harvest. There are no more grapes to eat, yet would I fain, with all my heart, have of the best fruit.

⁶ That we may boldly say, "The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man doeth unto me."

¹ And the whole multitude of the children of Israel, came into the desert of Zin in the first month, and the people dwelt at Kadesh. And there died Miriam, and was buried there.

¹⁴ For ye were disobedient unto my mouth in the desert of Zin in the strife of the congregation, that ye sanctified me not in the water before their eyes." That is the water of strife in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin.

³⁶ And they removed from Eziongeber, and pitched in the wilderness of Zin, which is Kadesh.

³ And your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the coast of Edom, so that your south quarter shall be from the side of the salt sea eastward, ⁴ and shall fetch a compass from the south up to Akrabbim, and reach to Zin. And it shall go out on the south side of Kadesh Barnea, and go out also at Hazaraddar, and go along to Azmon.

⁵¹ For ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of strife, at Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin: because ye sanctified me not among the children of Israel.

⁵ And the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon toward the sun rising, from Baalgad under mount Hermon until thou come to Hamath,

¹ And the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah in their kindreds was the wilderness of Zin that stretched to the coasts of Edom southward, and is the utmost part of the south coasts.

⁹ When Toi, king of Hamath, had heard how David had discomforted all the host of Hadadezer,

² Go unto Calneh, and see: and from thence get you to Hamath the great city, and so go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better at ease than these kingdoms, or the border of their land wider than yours?

¹⁸ Then Abram took down his tent, and went and dwelled in the oak grove of Mamre, which is in Hebron; and built there an altar to the LORD.

² and then died in a head-city called Hebron in the land of Canaan. Then Abraham came to mourn Sara and to weep for her.

¹⁷ And Moses sent them forth to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, "Get you southward and go up into the high country:

³³ And there we saw also giants, the children of Anak which are of the giants. And we seemed in our sight as it were grasshoppers and so we did in their sight."

²¹ And that same season, Joshua went and destroyed the Anakims out of the mountains, and out of Hebron, Debir, and Anab, and out of all the mountains of Judah, and out of all the mountains of Israel. And Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities, ²² so that there was not one Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod, there remained of them.

¹³ And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh was there a part given among the children of Judah, by the mouth of the LORD to Joshua, even the city of Kiriatharba father of Anak which city is called Hebron. ¹⁴ And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the sons begotten of Anak.

¹³ And thus they gave to the children of Aaron the priest the franchised cities of the slayer, Hebron with her suburbs, and Libnah with her suburbs;

¹⁰ And Judah went unto the Cananites that dwelt in Hebron, which before time was called Kiriatharba. And slew Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai.

¹ After this David asked the LORD, saying, "Shall I go up into any of the cities of Juda? And the LORD said, "Go." And David answered, "Whither shall I go?" He answered, "Unto Hebron."

¹¹ And the time which David reigned in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.

¹² Marvelous things did he in the sight of our forefathers; in the land of Egypt, even in the field of Zoan.

⁴³ how he had wrought his miracles in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan:

¹¹ But ye foolish princes of Zoan, ye wise counselors of Pharaoh, whose wit is turned to foolishness: How say ye unto Pharaoh, "I am come of wise people;

¹³ The princes of Zoan are become fools, and the princes of Noph are deceived: yea, they deceive Egypt with their nobility of their stock.

⁴ Your rulers have been at Zoan, and your messengers came unto Hanes.

²⁴ The river was called Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down there.

⁹ And they went up even unto the river of Eshcol and saw the land, and discouraged the hearts of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.

⁴ And after that he loved a woman, upon the river of Sorek, called Delilah

¹⁸ And Moses went into the mountain. And Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.

²⁸ And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights, and neither ate bread nor drank water. And he wrote in the tables the words of the covenant: even ten verses.

³³ And your children shall wander in this wilderness forty years and suffer for your whoredom until your carcasses be wasted in the wilderness, ³⁴ after the number of the days in which ye searched out the land forty days, and every day a year: so that they shall bear your unrighteousness forty years, and ye shall feel my vengeance.

¹⁶ Then we cried unto the LORD and he heard our voices, and sent an angel and hath fetched us out of Egypt. And behold, we are in Kadesh, a city hard by the borders of thy country:

⁶ And the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said unto him, "Thou knowest what the LORD said unto Moses the man of God, about me and thee in Kadesh Barnea.

¹⁷ And I have said it, that I will bring you out of the tribulation of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites: even a land that floweth with milk and honey.'

⁵ When the LORD hath brought thee in to the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites and Jebusites, which he sware unto thy fathers that he would give thee: a land wherein milk and honey floweth, then see that thou keep this service in this same month.

³ that thou mayest go in to a land that floweth with milk and honey. But I will not go among you myself, for ye are a stiffnecked people: lest I consume you by the way."

²⁴ But I have said unto you that ye shall enjoy their land, and that I will give it unto you to possess it: even a land that floweth with milk and honey. I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other nations:

⁸ If the LORD have lust to us, he will bring us into this land and give it us, which is a land that floweth with milk and honey.

²⁵ and took of the fruit of the land in their hands and brought it down unto us and brought us word again, and said, 'It is a good land which the LORD our God doth give us.' ²⁶ Notwithstanding, ye would not consent to go up, but were disobedient unto the mouth of the LORD your God, ²⁷ and murmured in your tents and said, 'Because the LORD hateth us, therefore he hath brought us out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites and to destroy us. ²⁸ How shall we go up? Our brethren have discouraged our hearts, saying the people is greater and taller than we, and the cities are great and walled even up to heaven, and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.' ²⁹ And I said unto you, 'Dread not, nor be afraid of them: ³⁰ The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did unto you in Egypt before your eyes ³¹ and in the wilderness: as thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bare thee as a man should bear his son, throughout all the way which ye have gone, until ye came unto this place.' ³² And yet for all this saying ye did not believe the LORD your God, ³³ which goeth the way before you to search you out a place to pitch your tents in; in fire by night — that ye might see what way to go — and in a cloud by day.

³ Hear therefore, Israel, and take heed that thou do thereafter, that it may go well with thee and that ye may increase mightily: even as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

⁹ and that ye may prolong your days in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

⁹ And he hath brought us into this place and hath given us this land that floweth with milk and honey.

¹¹ and rejoice over all the good things which the LORD thy God hath given unto thee and unto thine house, both thou the Levite and the stranger that is among you. ¹² When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, the year of tithing — and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless and the widow, and they have eaten in thy gates and filled themselves ¹³ — then say before the LORD thy God, 'I have brought thee hallowed things out of mine house: and have given them unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless and the widow according to all the commandments which thou commandest me: I have not overskipped thy commandments, nor forgotten them. ¹⁴ I have not eaten thereof in my mourning nor taken away thereof unto any uncleanness, nor spent thereof about any dead corpse: but have hearkened unto the voice of the LORD my God, and have done after all that he commanded me. ¹⁵ Look down from thy holy habitation heaven and bless thy people Israel and the land which thou hast given us — as thou swearest unto our fathers — a land that floweth with milk and honey.'

³ and write upon them all the words of this law, when thou art come over: that thou mayest come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee: a land that floweth with milk and honey, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee.

²⁰ For when I have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers that runneth with milk and honey, then they will eat and fill themselves and wax fat and turn unto strange gods and serve them and rail on me and break my covenant.

⁶ For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people of men of war that came out of Egypt were consumed, which hearkened not unto the voice of God; so that the LORD sware, that he would not show them the land which the LORD sware unto their fathers, that he would give us even a land that floweth with milk and honey.

⁵ and will keep my promise, that I have sworn unto your fathers: Namely, that I would give them a land which floweth with milk and honey, as ye see it is come to pass unto this day." Then answered I, and said, "Amen. It is even so, O LORD, as thou sayest."

²² and hast given them this land, like as thou hadst promised unto their fathers: Namely, that thou wouldest give them a land, that floweth with milk and honey.

⁶ even in the day that I lift up mine hand over them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt, into a land that I have provided for them, which floweth with milk and honey, and it is a pleasant land among all others:

¹⁵ But I swore unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land, which I gave them: a land that floweth with milk and honey, and is a pleasure of all lands.

²² and they ascended unto the south and came unto Hebron: where Ahiman was, and Sheshai and Talmai; the sons of Anak. Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt. ²³ And they came unto the river of Eshcol and they cut down there a branch with one cluster of grapes and bare it upon a staff between twain, and also of the pomegranates and of the figs of the place.

²⁸ How shall we go up? Our brethren have discouraged our hearts, saying the people is greater and taller than we, and the cities are great and walled even up to heaven, and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.'

¹⁰ The Emims dwelt therein in times past; which were a great strong people, and high of stature as the Anakims. ¹¹ Which also were taken for Giants, like as the Anakims: And the Moabites called them Emims.

²¹ a people that was great, many and tall, as the Anakims. But the LORD destroyed them before the Ammonites, and they cast them out and they dwelt there in their stead:

⁵ All these cities were made strong with high walls, gates and bars; beside un-walled towns, a great many.

¹ Hear, Israel: thou goest over Jordan this day, to go and conquer nations greater and mightier than thyself: and cities great and walled up to heaven, ² and people great and tall, even the children of the Anakims, which thou knowest and of whom thou hast heard say, 'Who is able to stand before the children of Anak?'

²² so that there was not one Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod, there remained of them.

¹⁴ And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the sons begotten of Anak.

²⁰ And they gave Hebron unto Caleb as Moses said. And he expelled thence the three sons of Anak.

⁷ And then turned they and came to the well of judgment which is Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites that dwell in Hazezon-Tamar.

¹⁹ the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites, ²⁰ the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Giants, ²¹ the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites and the Jebusites."

⁸ Then came Amalek and fought with Israel in Rephidim. ⁹ And Moses said unto Joshua, "Choose out men and go fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill and the rod of God in mine hand." ¹⁰ And Joshua did as Moses bade him, and fought with the Amalekites. And Moses, Aaron and Hur went up to the top of the hill. ¹¹ And when Moses held up his hand, Israel had the better. And when he let his hand down, Amalek had the better. ¹² When Moses' hands were weary, they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat down thereon. And Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side and the other on the other side. And his hands were steady until the sun was down. ¹³ And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of his sword. ¹⁴ And the LORD said unto Moses, "Write this for a remembrance in a book and tell it unto Joshua, for I will put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven." ¹⁵ And Moses made an altar and called the name of it Jehovah Nissi, ¹⁶ for he said, "The hand is on the seat of the LORD, that the LORD will have war with Amalek throughout all generations."

²⁵ and also the Amalekites and Canaanites which dwell in the low countries. Tomorrow turn you and get you into the wilderness: even the way toward the reed sea."

⁴³ For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye will fall upon the sword: because ye are turned away from the LORD, and therefore the LORD will not be with you."

⁴⁵ Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, came down and smote them and hewed them: even unto Hormah.

²⁰ And he looked on Amalek and began his parable, and said, "Amalek is the first of the nations, but his latter end shall perish utterly."

³ For when Israel had sown then came the Midianites, the Amalekites, and they of the east country upon them and pitched their tents against them,

⁴⁸ And whithersoever he turned himself, there he won, and played the man and slew the Amalekites, and rid Israel out of the hands of them that spoiled them.

³ Now therefore go and smite the Amalekites, and only destroy ye all that pertaineth unto them, and see thou have no compassion on them. But slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, and ox, sheep, camel and ass.'" ⁴ And Saul told it the people, and numbered them in Telaim two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah. ⁵ And Saul came unto a city of the Amalekites, and fought in a valley. ⁶ But Saul said unto the Kenites, "Go and depart and get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them, for ye showed mercy with Israel when they came out of Egypt." And the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites. ⁷ And Saul slew the Amalekites from Havilah to Shur that lieth before Egypt, ⁸ and took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword. ⁹ But Saul and the people spared Agag, and they left of the sheep and of the oxen and fat things and the lambs and all that was good, and would not destroy them. But all that was nought worth and flaggy, that they destroyed utterly.

¹ But yer David and his men were come to Ziklag the third day, the Amalekites had run in a running upon the south and upon Ziklag, and had smitten Ziklag and burnt it with fire,

⁷ Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek: the Philistines with them that dwell at Tyre.

⁶ And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes ⁷ and spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, "The land which we walked through to search it, is a very good land. ⁸ If the LORD have lust to us, he will bring us into this land and give it us, which is a land that floweth with milk and honey. ⁹ But in any wise, rebel not against the LORD. Moreover fear ye not the people of the land, for they are but bread for us. Their shield is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not therefore."

⁶ And the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said unto him, "Thou knowest what the LORD said unto Moses the man of God, about me and thee in Kadesh Barnea. ⁷ Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. And I brought them word again even as I thought in mine heart. ⁸ Nevertheless, my brethren that went up with me discouraged the hearts of the people. But I followed the LORD my God even unto the end.

¹ {A Psalm of David} The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom then should I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom then shall I be afraid? ² When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

¹² Through God will we do great acts, for it is he that shall tread down our enemies.

¹⁰ All nations compassed me round about; but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. ¹¹ They kept me in, I say, on every side; but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

¹⁰ Be not afraid, for I will be with thee. Look not behind thee, for I will be thy God, to strengthen thee, help thee, and to keep thee with this righthand of mine. ¹¹ Behold, all they that resist thee, shall come to confusion and shame: and thine adversaries shall be destroyed and brought to naught. ¹² So that whoso seeketh after them, shall not find them. Thy destroyers shall perish, and so shall they that undertake to make battle against thee. ¹³ For I, thy LORD and God, will strengthen thy righthand. Even I that say unto thee, 'Fear not,' I will help thee. ¹⁴ Be not afraid, thou little worm Jacob, and thou despised Israel: for I will help thee, sayeth the LORD, and the holy one of Israel thine avenger. ¹⁵ Behold, I will make thee a treading cart and a new flail, that thou mayest thresh and grind the mountains, and bring the hills to powder. ¹⁶ Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them. But thou shalt rejoice in the LORD, and shall delight in praising the holy one of Israel.

³¹ What shall we then say unto these things? if God be on our side: who can be against us?

³⁷ Nevertheless, in all these things we overcome strongly through his help that loved us.

¹³ I can do all things through the help of Christ, which strengtheneth me.

³³ which through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained the promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

¹ Hear, Israel: thou goest over Jordan this day, to go and conquer nations greater and mightier than thyself: and cities great and walled up to heaven,

⁸ Nevertheless, my brethren that went up with me discouraged the hearts of the people. But I followed the LORD my God even unto the end.

¹⁹ And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief.

²⁸ Nevertheless, the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled and exceeding great, and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.

³⁶ And the men which Moses sent to search the land, and which — when they came again — made all the people to murmur against it, in that they brought up a slander upon the land; ³⁷ died for their bringing up that evil slander upon it, and were plagued before the LORD.

²⁰ And there was yet battle in Gath, where was a man of a size and had on every hand six fingers and on every foot six toes — twenty four in all — and was also of the kindred of the Giants, and defied Israel.

⁶ And there chanced yet again war at Gath, where was a man of a size with twenty four fingers and toes, six on every hand and six on every foot, and was the son of Haraphah and defied Israel.

¹³ Again, thus sayeth the LORD God: Forsomuch as they say unto you, 'Thou art an eater-up of men, and a waster of thy people,' ¹⁴ therefore thou shalt eat no more men; neither destroy thy people any more, sayeth the LORD God.

⁹ "'Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, that was as high as the Cedar trees, and as strong as the oaks: notwithstanding I destroyed his fruit from above and his root from under.

¹³ Woe be unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven before men: ye yourselves go not in, neither suffer ye them that come to enter in.

⁴ There were tyrants in the world in those days. For after that the children of God had gone in unto the daughters of men and had begotten them children, the same children were the mightiest of the world and men of renown.

²² and they ascended unto the south and came unto Hebron: where Ahiman was, and Sheshai and Talmai; the sons of Anak. Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.

¹⁰ The Emims dwelt therein in times past; which were a great strong people, and high of stature as the Anakims.

¹¹ For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the Giants: behold, his iron bed is yet at Rabbah, among the children of Ammon: nine cubits long and four cubits broad, of the cubits of a man.

² and people great and tall, even the children of the Anakims, which thou knowest and of whom thou hast heard say, 'Who is able to stand before the children of Anak?'

⁴ And then came a man and stood in the midst, out of the tents of the Philistines, named Goliath of Gath: six cubits and a handbreadth long, ⁵ and had a helmet of brass upon his head, and a coat of mail about him. And the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass. ⁶ And he had a harness of brass upon his legs, and a shield of brass upon his shoulders. ⁷ And the shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam. And his spearhead weighed six hundred sicles of iron. And one bearing a shield went before him.

⁴² And when the Philistine looked and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a lad, ruddy and goodly to look upon.

²⁰ And there was yet battle in Gath, where was a man of a size and had on every hand six fingers and on every foot six toes — twenty four in all — and was also of the kindred of the Giants, and defied Israel. ²¹ And Jonathan the son of Shimei, the brother of David, slew him. ²² These four were of the sons of the Giants in Gath, and were overthrown by the hand of David and by the hands of his servants.

²³ And he slew an Egyptian which was a man of size, even five cubits long, and in his hand had a spear like a weaver's beam. And the other went to him with a waster and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his spear.

²² That he sitteth upon the Circle of the world, and that all the inhabiters of the world are, in comparison of him, but as grasshoppers; That he spreadeth out the heavens as a covering, he stretcheth them out as a tent to dwell in;
