So the LORD{H3068} turned{H7725}{(H8799)} from the fierceness{H2740} of his anger{H639}. Wherefore the name{H8034} of that place{H4725} was called{H7121}{(H8804)}, The valley{H6010} of Achor{H5911}, unto this day{H3117}.
  • 2 Kgs 5:20-27 : 20 But Gehazi{H1522}, the servant{H5288} of Elisha{H477} the man{H376} of God{H430}, said{H559}{(H8799)}, Behold, my master{H113} hath spared{H2820}{(H8804)} Naaman{H5283} this Syrian{H761}, in not receiving{H3947}{(H8800)} at his hands{H3027} that which he brought{H935}{(H8689)}: but, as the LORD{H3068} liveth{H2416}, I will run{H7323}{(H8804)} after{H310} him, and take{H3947}{(H8804)} somewhat{H3972} of him. 21 So Gehazi{H1522} followed{H7291}{(H8799)} after{H310} Naaman{H5283}. And when Naaman{H5283} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} him running{H7323}{(H8801)} after{H310} him, he lighted down{H5307}{(H8799)} from the chariot{H4818} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} him, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Is all well{H7965}? 22 And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, All is well{H7965}. My master{H113} hath sent{H7971}{(H8804)} me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Behold, even now there be come{H935}{(H8804)} to me from mount{H2022} Ephraim{H669} two{H8147} young men{H5288} of the sons{H1121} of the prophets{H5030}: give{H5414}{(H8798)} them, I pray thee, a talent{H3603} of silver{H3701}, and two{H8147} changes{H2487} of garments{H899}. 23 And Naaman{H5283} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Be content{H2974}{(H8685)}, take{H3947}{(H8798)} two talents{H3603}. And he urged{H6555}{(H8799)} him, and bound{H6696}{(H8799)} two{H8147} talents{H3603} of silver{H3701} in two{H8147} bags{H2754}, with two{H8147} changes{H2487} of garments{H899}, and laid{H5414}{(H8799)} them upon two{H8147} of his servants{H5288}; and they bare{H5375}{(H8799)} them before{H6440} him. 24 And when he came{H935}{(H8799)} to the tower{H6076}, he took{H3947}{(H8799)} them from their hand{H3027}, and bestowed{H6485}{(H8799)} them in the house{H1004}: and he let the men{H582} go{H7971}{(H8762)}, and they departed{H3212}{(H8799)}. 25 But he went in{H935}{(H8802)}, and stood{H5975}{(H8799)} before his master{H113}. And Elisha{H477} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Whence{H370} comest thou, Gehazi{H1522}? And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, Thy servant{H5650} went{H1980}{(H8804)} no whither{H575}. 26 And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Went{H1980}{(H8804)} not mine heart{H3820} with thee, when the man{H376} turned{H2015}{(H8804)} again from his chariot{H4818} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} thee? Is it a time{H6256} to receive{H3947}{(H8800)} money{H3701}, and to receive{H3947}{(H8800)} garments{H899}, and oliveyards{H2132}, and vineyards{H3754}, and sheep{H6629}, and oxen{H1241}, and menservants{H5650}, and maidservants{H8198}? 27 The leprosy{H6883} therefore of Naaman{H5283} shall cleave{H1692}{(H8799)} unto thee, and unto thy seed{H2233} for ever{H5769}. And he went out{H3318}{(H8799)} from his presence{H6440} a leper{H6879}{(H8794)} as white as snow{H7950}.
  • Ps 11:6 : 6 Upon the wicked{H7563} he shall rain{H4305}{(H8686)} snares{H6341}, fire{H784} and brimstone{H1614}, and an horrible{H2152} tempest{H7307}: this shall be the portion{H4521} of their cup{H3563}.
  • Prov 1:17-19 : 17 Surely in vain{H2600} the net{H7568} is spread{H2219}{(H8794)} in the sight{H5869} of any bird{H1167}{H3671}. 18 And they lay wait{H693}{(H8799)} for their own blood{H1818}; they lurk privily{H6845}{(H8799)} for their own lives{H5315}. 19 So are the ways{H734} of every one that is greedy{H1214}{(H8802)} of gain{H1215}; which taketh away{H3947}{(H8799)} the life{H5315} of the owners{H1167} thereof.
  • Zech 11:5 : 5 Whose possessors{H7069}{(H8802)} slay{H2026}{(H8799)} them, and hold themselves not guilty{H816}{(H8799)}: and they that sell{H4376}{(H8802)} them say{H559}{(H8799)}, Blessed{H1288}{(H8803)} be the LORD{H3068}; for I am rich{H6238}{(H8686)}: and their own shepherds{H7462}{(H8802)} pity{H2550}{(H8799)} them not.
