02 : 46 So the king <04428 +melek > commanded <06680 +tsavah >

Benaiah <01141 +B@nayah > the son <01121 +ben > of Jehoiada

03 : 02 Only <07535 +raq > the people <05971 +<am > sacrificed

03 : 03 And Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > loved <00157 +>ahab > the

03 : 05 . In Gibeon <01391 +Gib<own > the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah

03 : 06 And Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > said <00559 +>amar > ,

Thou hast shewed <06213 +<asah > unto thy servant <05650 +<ebed

03 : 07 And now <06258 +<attah > , O LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > my

03 : 08 And thy servant <05650 +<ebed > [ is ] in the midst

03 : 15 And Solomon <08010 +Sh@lomoh > awoke <03364 +yaqats > ;

12 : 13 And the king <04428 +melek > answered <06030 +<anah >

[ there was ] a sore <02389 +chazaq > famine <07458 +ra<ab > in

Samaria <08111 +Shom@rown > .

18 : 03 And Ahab <00256 +>Ach>ab > called <07121 +qara> >

Obadiah <05662 +<Obadyah > , which <00834 +>aher > [ was ] the

18 : 05 And Ahab <00256 +>Ach>ab > said <00559 +>amar > unto

18 : 06 So they divided <02505 +chalaq > the land <00776 +>erets

18 : 07 And as Obadiah <05662 +<Obadyah > was in the way <01870

18 : 15 And Elijah <00452 +>Eliyah > said <00559 +>amar > , [ As

18 : 16 So Obadiah <05662 +<Obadyah > went <03212 +yalak > to

18 : 17 . And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when Ahab

18 : 21 . And Elijah <00452 +>Eliyah > came <05066 +nagash >

unto all <03605 +kol > the people <05971 +<am > , and said

20 : 34 And [ Benhadad ] said <00559 +>amar > unto him , The

20 : 35 And a certain <00259 +>echad > man <00376 +>iysh > of

22 : 31 But the king <04428 +melek > of Syria <00758 +>Aram >
