- Neh 4:17-23 : 17 They that buylded on the wall, and they that bare burdens, and they that laded, did the worke with one hand, and with the other helde the sworde. 18 For euery one of the buylders had his sworde girded on his loynes, and so buylded: and he that blewe the trumpet, was beside me. 19 Then saide I vnto the Princes, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The worke is great and large, and we are separated vpon the wall, one farre from another. 20 In what place therefore ye heare the sound of the trumpet, resort ye thither vnto vs: our God shall fight for vs. 21 So we laboured in the worke, and halfe of them helde the speares, from the appearing of the morning, till the starres came foorth. 22 And at the same time said I vnto the people, Let euery one with his seruant lodge within Ierusalem, that they may be a watch for vs in the night, and labour in the day. 23 So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my seruants, nor the men of the warde, (which followed me) none of vs did put off our clothes, saue euery one put them off for washing.
- Neh 13:8-9 : 8 And it grieued me sore: therefore I cast forth all the vessels of the house of Tobiah out of the chamber. 9 And I commanded them to clense ye chambers: and thither brought I againe the vessels of the house of God with the meate offring and the incense. 10 And I perceiued that the portions of the Leuites had not bene giuen, and that euery one was fled to his lande, euen the Leuites and singers that executed the worke. 11 Then reproued I the rulers and sayd, Why is the house of God forsaken? And I assembled them, and set them in their place. 12 Then brought all Iudah the tithes of corne and of wine, and of oyle vnto the treasures. 13 And I made treasurers ouer the treasures, Shelemiah the Priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Leuites, Pedaiah, and vnder their hande Hanan the sonne of Zaccur the sonne of Mattaniah: for they were counted faithfull, and their office was to distribute vnto their brethren. 14 Remember me, O my God, herein, & wipe not out my kindenes that I haue shewed on the house of my God, and on the offices thereof. 15 In those dayes saw I in Iudah them, that trode wine presses on ye Sabbath, & that brought in sheaues, and which laded asses also with wine, grapes, and figges, and all burdens, and brought them into Ierusalem vpon the Sabbath day: and I protested to them in the day that they sold vitailes. 16 There dwelt men of Tyrus also therein, which brought fish and all wares, and solde on the Sabbath vnto the children of Iudah euen in Ierusalem. 17 Then reprooued I the rulers of Iudah, and sayd vnto them, What euil thing is this that yee doe, and breake the Sabbath day? 18 Did not your fathers thus, and our God brought all this plague vpon vs, and vpon this citie? yet yee increase the wrath vpon Israel, in breaking the Sabbath. 19 And when the gates of Ierusalem beganne to be darke before the Sabbath, I commaded to shut the gates, and charged, that they should not be opened til after the Sabbath, and some of my seruants set I at the gates, that there shoulde no burden be brought in on the Sabbath day. 20 So the chapmen and marchants of al marchandise remained once or twise all night without Ierusalem. 21 And I protested among them, and said vnto them, Why tary ye all night about the wall? If ye do it once againe, I will lay hands vpon you. from that time came they no more on the Sabbath. 22 And I sayde vnto the Leuites, that they should clense themselues, and that they shoulde come and keepe the gates, to sanctifie the Sabbath day. Remember me, O my God, concerning this, & pardon me according to thy great mercy. 23 In those dayes also I saw Iewes that married wiues of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab. 24 And their children spake halfe in ye speach of Ashdod, and could not speake in the Iewes language, and according to the language of the one people, and of the other people. 25 Then I reprooued them, & cursed them, and smote certaine of them, and pulled off their heare, and tooke an othe of them by God, Yee shall not giue your daughters vnto their sonnes, neither shall ye take of their daughters vnto your sonnes, nor for your selues. 26 Did not Salomon the king of Israel sinne by these thinges? yet among many nations was there no King like him: for he was beloued of his God, and God had made him King ouer Israel: yet strange women caused him to sinne. 27 Shall wee then obey vnto you, to doe all this great euil, and to transgresse against our God, euen to marry strange wiues? 28 And one of the sonnes of Ioiada the sonne of Eliashib the hie Priest was the sonne in law of Sanballat the Horonite: but I chased him fro me. 29 Remember them, O my God, that defile the Priesthoode, and the couenant of the Priesthoode, and of the Leuites. 30 Then cleansed I them from all strangers, and appoynted the wardes of the Priestes and of the Leuites, euery one in his office, 31 And for the offring of the wood at times appoynted, & for the first fruites. Remember me, O my God, in goodnes.
- Job 14:7-9 : 7 For there is hope of a tree, if it bee cut downe, that it will yet sproute, and the branches thereof will not cease. 8 Though the roote of it waxe olde in the earth, & the stocke thereof be dead in ye ground, 9 Yet by the sent of water it will bud, and bring foorth boughes like a plant. 10 But man is sicke, and dyeth, and man perisheth, and where is he? 11 As the waters passe from the sea, and as the flood decayeth and dryeth vp, 12 So man sleepeth and riseth not: for hee shall not wake againe, nor be raised from his sleepe till the heauen be no more.
