Sheba IV








for thee have I seen righteous - before me - in this generation.

I do set my bow in the cloud,
and it shall be for a token of a covenant - between me - and the earth.
And it shall come to pass,
when I bring a cloud over the earth,
that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
And I will remember my covenant,
which is - between me - and you and every living creature of all flesh;
and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

And his father refused,
and said,
I know it,
my son,

I know it:

And when the woman saw that the tree w-as good - for food,
and that it was pleasant to the eyes,

I am not inferior un-to you.
Surely I would speak to the Almighty,
and I desire to reason with God.
But ye are forgers of lies,
ye are all physicians of no value.

and a tree to be desired to make one wise,
she took of the fruit thereof,
and did eat,
and gave also unto her husband with her;
and he did eat.



And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead,

And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife,
and hast eaten of the tree,
of which I commanded thee,
saying,
Thou shalt not eat of it:
cursed is the ground for thy sake;
in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

she mourned - for her husband.

Let a little water,
I pray you,
be fetched,
and wash your feet,
and rest yourselves under the tree:
And I will fetch a morsel of bread,
and comfort ye your hearts;
after that ye shall pass on:
for therefore are ye come to your servant.
And they said,
So do, - as thou hast said.

And when the mourning w-as past,

And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground,

And Abraham ran unto the herd,
and fetched a calf tender and good,
and gave it unto a young man;
and he hasted to dress it.

David sent and fetched her to his house,
and she became his wife,

So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God created he him;

and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living soul.

and bare him a son.


dis-please
(dis-plez)v. dis-pleased, dis-pleas-ing, dis-pleas-es.v. tr. To cause annoyance or vexation to.v. intr. To cause annoyance or displeasure.


But the thing that David had done displeased the Lord.

And the Lord sent Nathan unto David.
And he came unto him,

and said un-to him,

There were two men in one city;
the one rich,
and the other poor.

And Ab-el,
he also brought of the firstlings of his flock
and of the fat there-of.

And God created great whales,
and every living creature that moveth,

and he called his name Enos:
 then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.

I am as one mocked of his neighbour,
who calleth upon God,
and he answereth him:

the just upright man is laughed to scorn.

The rich man had exceeding many flocks and her-ds:
But the poor man had nothing,
save one little ewe lamb,

And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years:
and he begat sons and daughters:

That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair;
and they took them wives of all which they chose.

And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house,
or bought with money of any stranger,
which is not of thy seed.

which he had bought and nourished up:
and it grew up together with him,
and with his children;
it did eat of his own meat,
and drank of his own cup,
and lay in his bosom,
and w-as unto him as a daughter.

and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad.

And there came a traveller unto the rich man,

So God created man in his own image,

and he spared to take of his own flock

and of his own herd,

And the Lord God took the man,
and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it - and to keep it.
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying,
Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
thou shalt not eat of it:
for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
                          
to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him;
but took the poor man's lamb,
and dressed it for the man that was come to him.


an-ger
anggr)n. A strong feeling of displeasure or hostility.v. an-gered, an-ger-ing, an-gers.v. tr. To make angry; enrage or provoke.v. intr. To become angry: She angers too quickly.[Middle English, from Old Norse angr, sorrow. See angh-.]

And David's anger was greatly kindled against the man;
and he said to Nathan,

And the Lord God said un-to the serpent, Because thou hast done this,
thou art cursed above all cattle,
and above every beast of the field;                  

Why died I not from the womb?
why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?

up-on thy belly shalt thou go,
and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:


thee

And I will put enmity - between - thee and the woman,
and between thy seed - and her seed;
it shall bruise thy head,
and thou shalt bruise his heel.

This twenty years have I been with thee
thy ewes - and thy she goats have not cast their young,
and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten.

And I will put enmity - between - thee and the woman,
and between thy seed - and her seed;
it shall bruise thy head,
and thou shalt bruise his heel.

As the Lord liveth,

the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:

And he shall restore the lamb fourfold,
because he did this thing,
and because he had no pity.

And Nathan said to David,

I have said to corruption,
Thou art my father:
to the worm,
Thou art my mother,
and my sister.

And where is now my hope?
as for my hope,
who shall see it?
They shall go down to the bars of the pit,
when our rest together is in the dust.

Thou art the man.

Thus saith the Lord God of Is ra el,

I anointed thee king over Israel,
and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;

And I gave thee thy master's house,
and thy master's wives into thy bosom,
and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah;
and if that had been too little,
I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.

and beast of the earth after his kind:
and it was so.

Where-fore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord,

Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made.

to do evil in his sight?
thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword,
and hast taken his wife to be thy wife,

And the younger,
she also bare a son,
and called his name Benammi:
the same is the father of the children of Ammon un-to this day.

and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

Now

Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me,
and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.

 Thus saith the Lord,
Behold,
I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house,
and I will take thy wives before thine eyes,
and give them un-to thy neighbour,
and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.
 For thou didst it secretly:
but I will do this thing before all Israel,
and before the sun.
 And David said unto Nathan,
I have sinned against the Lord.
And Nathan said unto David,
The Lord also hath put away thy sin;

thou shalt not die.

 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made.

Howbeit,

because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme,

the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.

Bathsheba S-HE IS ME pt. III




And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters,
and let it divide the waters from the waters.

And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam,
the wife of Uriah the Hittite?

then he put forth his hand,
and took her,
and pulled her in unto him into the ark.

And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him,
and he lay with her;

bath1
(bath, bath)n.pl. baths (bathz, bathz, baths, baths). 1.   The act of soaking or cleansing the body, as in water or steam. The water used for cleansing the body. 2.  


Bathsheba
And the earth was without form

And Adam knew his wife again;
and she bare a son,
and called his name Seth:

For God,
said she,
hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel,
whom Cain slew.

Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth;
and from thy face shall I be hid;
and I shall be a fugitive - and a vagabond in the earth;
*****
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground,
**
Noah w-as a just man and perfect in his generations,
**
and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living so-ul.
*****

and it shall come to pass,
 that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
And the Lord said unto him,
Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain,
vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold.

And Lamech said unto his wives,
Adah and Zillah,
Hear my voice;
ye wives of Lamech,
hearken unto my speech:
for I have slain a man to my wounding,
and a young man to my hurt.
If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold,
truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.

The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them.
They were confounded because they had hoped;
they came thither,
and were ashamed.
For now ye are nothing; ye see my casting down, and are afraid.

And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.

 And the woman conceived,
and sent and told David,
and said,
I am with child.

. . . and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden,
God hath said,
Ye shall not eat of it,
neither shall ye touch it,
lest ye die.

But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

And surely your blood of your lives will I require;
at the hand of every beast will I require it,
and at the hand of man;
at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.


Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed:
for in the image of God - made he man.

Whosoever touch-eth the dead body of any man that is dead, and purifieth not himself,
defileth the tabernacle of the Lord;
and that soul shall be cut off from Israel:

because the water of separation was not sprinkled upon him, he shall be unclean;
his uncleanness is yet upon him.

issue

A point or matter of discussion, debate, or dispute: legal and moral issues. A matter of public concern: refused to address the economic issues. The essential point; crux: the issue of how to provide adequate child care. A culminating point leading to a decision: bring a case to an issue.




And his father refused,
and said,
I know it,
my son,
I know it:
God make thee as Ephraim
and as Man-as-seth:
and he set Ephraim - before - Manasseh.

The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills:
they shall be on the head of Joseph,
and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.


And Israel journeyed,
and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar.

And if a woman have an issue of her blood many days out of the time of her separation,

or if it run beyond the time of her separation;
all the days of the issue of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation:
she shall be unclean.

Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her issue shall be unto her as the bed of her separation:

and whatsoever she sitteth up-on shall be unclean,
as the uncleanness of her separation.
And whosoever toucheth those things shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water,
and be unclean until the even.
But if she be cleansed of her issue,
then she shall number to herself seven days,
and after that she shall be clean.
                                                               
And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria.

Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth;

Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him,
Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean,
and change your garments:

. . . nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation:
and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make go through the water.
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and after-ward ye shall come into the camp.


for she was purified from her uncleanness:

And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man,
made he a woman,
and brought her unto the man.



I know it,
my son,
I know it:



See now that I,
even I,
am he,
and there is no god with me:
I kill,
and I make alive;
I wound,
and I heal:
neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.

and she re-turned unto her house.
