Lexicon :: Strong's H1285 - bᵊrîṯ

Now in the seventh ^H7637 year ^H8141 Jehoiada ^H3077 strengthened ^H2388 himself, and took ^H3947 commanders ^H8269 of hundreds ^H3967: Azariah ^H5838 the son ^H1121 of Jeroham ^H3395, Ishmael ^H3458 the son ^H1121 of Johanan ^H3076, Azariah ^H5838 the son ^H1121 of Obed ^H5744, Maaseiah ^H4641 the son ^H1121 of Adaiah ^H5718, and Elishaphat ^H478 the son ^H1121 of Zichri ^H2147, and they entered into a covenant ^H1285 with him.

Then Jehoiada ^H3077 cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 between ^H996 himself and all ^H3605 the people ^H5971 and the king ^H4428, that they would be the people ^H5971 of Yahweh ^H3068.

“You found ^H4672 his heart ^H3824 faithful ^H539 before ^H6440 You,

And cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with him

To give ^H5414 him the land ^H776 of the Canaanite ^H3669,

Of the Hittite ^H2850 and the Amorite ^H567,

Of the Perizzite ^H6522, the Jebusite ^H2983, and the Girgashite ^H1622—

To give ^H5414 it to his seed ^H2233.

And You have established ^H6965 Your promise ^H1697,

For You are righteous ^H6662.

“So now ^H6258, our God ^H430, the great ^H1419, the mighty ^H1368, and the awesome ^H3372 God ^H410, who keeps ^H8104 covenant ^H1285 and lovingkindness ^H2617,

Do not let all ^H3605 the hardship ^H8513 seem ^H4591 insignificant ^H4591 before ^H6440 You,

Which ^H834 has found ^H4672 us, our kings ^H4428, our princes ^H8269, our priests ^H3548, our prophets ^H5030, our fathers ^H1, and all ^H3605 Your people ^H5971,

From the days ^H3117 of the kings ^H4428 of Assyria ^H804 to this ^H2088 day ^H3117.

“For your covenant ^H1285 will be with the stones ^H68 of the field ^H7704,

And the beasts ^H2416 of the field ^H7704 will be at peace ^H7999 with you.

“I have cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with my eyes ^H5869;

How ^H4100 then could I gaze ^H995 at a virgin ^H1330?

“Will it cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with you?

Will you take ^H3947 it for a slave ^H5650 forever ^H5769?

Kaph

All ^H3605 the paths ^H734 of Yahweh ^H3068 are lovingkindness ^H2617 and truth ^H571

To those who guard ^H5341 His covenant ^H1285 and His testimonies ^H5713.

Samekh

The [fn]secret ^H5475 of Yahweh ^H3068 is for those who fear ^H3372 Him,

[fn]And He will make them know ^H3045 His covenant ^H1285.

All ^H3605 this ^H2088 has come ^H935 upon us, but we have not forgotten ^H7911 You,

And we have not dealt ^H8266 falsely ^H8266 with Your covenant ^H1285.

“Gather ^H622 My holy ^H2623 ones ^H2623 to Me,

Those who have cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with Me by sacrifice ^H2077.”

But to the wicked ^H7563 God ^H430 says ^H559,

“What ^H4100 right have you to recount ^H5608 My statutes ^H2706

And to take ^H5375 My covenant ^H1285 in your mouth ^H6310?

[fn]My companion has put ^H7971 forth ^H7971 his hands ^H3027 against those who were at peace ^H7965 with him;

He has [fn]violated ^H2490 his covenant ^H1285.

Look ^H5027 to the covenant ^H1285;

For the dark ^H4285 places ^H4285 of the land ^H776 are full ^H4390 of the haunts ^H4999 of violence ^H2555.

They did not keep ^H8104 the covenant ^H1285 of God ^H430

And refused ^H3985 to walk ^H1980 in His law ^H8451;

For their heart ^H3820 was not prepared ^H3559 to remain with ^H5973 Him,

Nor ^H3808 were they faithful ^H539 in His covenant ^H1285.

For they have [fn]conspired ^H3289 together ^H3162 with one heart ^H3820;

Against ^H5921 You they cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285:

“I have cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with My chosen ^H972;

I have sworn ^H7650 to David ^H1732 My [fn]servant ^H5650,

“My lovingkindness ^H2617 I will keep ^H8104 for him forever ^H5769,

And My covenant ^H1285 shall be confirmed ^H539 to him.

“My covenant ^H1285 I will not profane ^H2490,

Nor ^H3808 will I alter ^H8132 what comes forth ^H4161 from My lips ^H8193.

You have spurned ^H5010 the covenant ^H1285 of Your [fn]slave ^H5650;

You have profaned ^H2490 his crown ^H5145 to the ground ^H776.

To those who keep ^H8104 His covenant ^H1285

And remember ^H2142 His precepts ^H6490 to do ^H6213 them.

He has remembered ^H2142 His covenant ^H1285 forever ^H5769,

The word ^H1697 which He commanded ^H6680 for a thousand ^H505 generations ^H1755,

Then He confirmed ^H5975 it to Jacob ^H3290 for a statute ^H2706,

To Israel ^H3478 as an everlasting ^H5769 covenant ^H1285,

And He remembered ^H2142 for them His covenant ^H1285,

And [fn]relented ^H5162 according to the abundance ^H7230 of His lovingkindness ^H2617.

Teth

He has given ^H5414 [fn]food ^H2964 to those who [fn]fear ^H3372 Him;

Yodh

He will remember ^H2142 His covenant ^H1285 forever ^H5769.

Pe

He has sent ^H7971 redemption ^H6304 to His people ^H5971;

Tsadhe

He has commanded ^H6680 His covenant ^H1285 forever ^H5769;

Qoph

Holy ^H6918 and [fn]fearsome ^H3372 is His name ^H8034.

“If ^H518 your sons ^H1121 keep ^H8104 My covenant ^H1285

And My testimony ^H5713 which ^H2097 I will teach ^H3925 them,

Their sons ^H1121 also ^H1571 shall sit ^H3427 upon your throne ^H3678 forever ^H5703.”

Who forsakes ^H5800 the close companion ^H441 of her youth ^H5271

And forgets ^H7911 the covenant ^H1285 of her God ^H430;

Because ^H3588 you have said ^H559, “We have cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with death ^H4194,

And with Sheol ^H7585 we have made ^H6213 a [fn]pact ^H2374.

The overflowing ^H7857 [fn]scourge ^H7752 will not reach ^H935 us when ^H3588 it passes ^H5674 by ^H5674,

For we have made ^H7760 falsehood ^H3577 our refuge ^H4268 and we have hidden ^H5641 ourselves with lying ^H8267.”

“Your covenant ^H1285 with death ^H4194 will be [fn]canceled ^H3722,

And your pact ^H2380 with Sheol ^H7585 will not stand ^H6965;

When ^H3588 the overflowing ^H7857 scourge ^H7752 passes ^H5674 through ^H5674,

Then you will become ^H1961 its trampling ^H4823 place.

The highways ^H4546 are ^H8074 desolate ^H8074, [fn]the traveler ^H5674 has ceased ^H7673;

He has broken ^H6565 the covenant ^H1285, he has rejected ^H3988 the cities ^H5892;

He has no ^H3808 regard ^H2803 for man ^H582.

“I am Yahweh ^H3068, I have called ^H7121 You in ^H7121 righteousness ^H6664;

I will also take ^H2388 hold ^H2388 of You by the hand ^H3027 and guard ^H5341 You,

And I will give ^H5414 You as a covenant ^H1285 to the people ^H5971,

As a light ^H216 to the nations ^H1471,

Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068,

“In an acceptable ^H7522 time ^H6256 I have answered ^H6030 You,

And in a day ^H3117 of salvation ^H3444 I have helped ^H5826 You;

And I will guard ^H5341 You and give ^H5414 You for a covenant ^H1285 of the people ^H5971,

To establish ^H6965 the land ^H776, to make ^H5157 them inherit ^H5157 the desolate ^H8074 [fn]inheritance ^H5159;
