2Kings 11 |
| 2Kings 11:1 | And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal. |
| 2Kings 11:2 | But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not slain. |
| 2Kings 11:3 | And he was with her hid in the house of the LORD six years. And Athaliah did reign over the land. |
| 2Kings 11:4 | And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds, with the captains and the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD, and shewed them the king’s son. |
| 2Kings 11:5 | And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keepers of the watch of the king’s house; |
| 2Kings 11:6 | And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down. |
| 2Kings 11:7 | And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king. |
| 2Kings 11:8 | And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand: and he that cometh within the ranges, let him be slain: and be ye with the king as he goeth out and as he cometh in. |
| 2Kings 11:9 | And the captains over the hundreds did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that should go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest. |
| 2Kings 11:10 | And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king David’s spears and shields, that were in the temple of the LORD. |
| 2Kings 11:11 | And the guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, round about the king, from the right corner of the temple to the left corner of the temple, along by the altar and the temple. |
| 2Kings 11:12 | And he brought forth the king’s son, and put the crown upon him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, God save the king. |
| 2Kings 11:13 | And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the temple of the LORD. |
| 2Kings 11:14 | And when she looked, behold, the king stood by a pillar, as the manner was, and the princes and the trumpeters by the king, and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets: and Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried, Treason, Treason. |
| 2Kings 11:15 | But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that followeth her kill with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD. |
| 2Kings 11:16 | And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the king’s house: and there was she slain. |
| 2Kings 11:17 | And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD’S people; between the king also and the people. |
| 2Kings 11:18 | And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and brake it down; his altars and his images brake they in pieces thoroughly, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD. |
| 2Kings 11:19 | And he took the rulers over hundreds, and the captains, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king’s house. And he sat on the throne of the kings. |
| 2Kings 11:20 | And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was in quiet: and they slew Athaliah with the sword beside the king’s house. |
| 2Kings 11:21 | Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign. |

Revelation 8 |
| Revelation 8:1 | And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. |
| Revelation 8:2 | And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. |
| Revelation 8:3 | And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. |
| Revelation 8:4 | And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand. |
| Revelation 8:5 | And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. |
| Revelation 8:6 | And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. |
| Revelation 8:7 | The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. |
| Revelation 8:8 | And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; |
| Revelation 8:9 | And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. |
| Revelation 8:10 | And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; |
| Revelation 8:11 | And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. |
| Revelation 8:12 | And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. |
| Revelation 8:13 | And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! |

John 7 |
| John 7:1 | After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him. |
| John 7:2 | Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand. |
| John 7:3 | His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest. |
| John 7:4 | For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world. |
| John 7:5 | For neither did his brethren believe in him. |
| John 7:6 | Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready. |
| John 7:7 | The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. |
| John 7:8 | Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast: for my time is not yet full come. |
| John 7:9 | When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee. |
| John 7:10 | But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. |
| John 7:11 | Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he? |
| John 7:12 | And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people. |
| John 7:13 | Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews. |
| John 7:14 | Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. |
| John 7:15 | And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? |
| John 7:16 | Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. |
| John 7:17 | If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. |
| John 7:18 | He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. |
| John 7:19 | Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me? |
| John 7:20 | The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee? |
| John 7:21 | Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel. |
| John 7:22 | Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man. |
| John 7:23 | If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? |
| John 7:24 | Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. |
| John 7:25 | Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill? |
| John 7:26 | But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ? |
| John 7:27 | Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is. |
| John 7:28 | Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not. |
| John 7:29 | But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me. |
| John 7:30 | Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come. |
| John 7:31 | And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done? |
| John 7:32 | The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him. |
| John 7:33 | Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me. |
| John 7:34 | Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come. |
| John 7:35 | Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles? |
| John 7:36 | What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come? |
| John 7:37 | In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. |
| John 7:38 | He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. |
| John 7:39 | (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.) |
| John 7:40 | Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet. |
| John 7:41 | Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee? |
| John 7:42 | Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was? |
| John 7:43 | So there was a division among the people because of him. |
| John 7:44 | And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him. |
| John 7:45 | Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him? |
| John 7:46 | The officers answered, Never man spake like this man. |
| John 7:47 | Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived? |
| John 7:48 | Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him? |
| John 7:49 | But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed. |
| John 7:50 | Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,) |
| John 7:51 | Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth? |
| John 7:52 | They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet. |
| John 7:53 | And every man went unto his own house. |
