If God

And I came this day unto the well, and said, O LORD god of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go:

And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, if god will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,

if thou shalt afflict my daughters, or if thou shalt take other wives beside my daughters, no man is with us; see, god is witness betwixt me and thee.

• Flattery

And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found grace in thy sight, then receive my present at my hand: for therefore I have seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of god, and thou wast pleased with me.

• Sorrow

And god Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. if I be bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.

• Disease

And said, if thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy god, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.

if thou shalt do this thing, and god command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.

And if a man lie not in wait, but god deliver him into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.

• Armies

And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your god, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.

• Balaam
• Prophets

And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak, if Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my god, to do less or more.

And god came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him, if the men come to call thee, rise up, and go with them; but yet the word which I shall say unto thee, that shalt thou do.

But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy god, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy god, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;

Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our god any more, then we shall die.

And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our god, as he hath commanded us.

Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy god shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers:

And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy god, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.

• Heart

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your god, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your god, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;

A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your god, which I command you this day:

And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your god, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.

if the place which the LORD thy god hath chosen to put his name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy herd and of thy flock, which the LORD hath given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in thy gates whatsoever thy soul lusteth after.

if thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities, which the LORD thy god hath given thee to dwell there, saying, Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known;

And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which the LORD thy god shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy god hath blessed thee:

Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy god, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.

if there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy god giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:

And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the LORD thy god.

if there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy god giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy god, in transgressing his covenant,

if there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates: then shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place which the LORD thy god shall choose;

And if the LORD thy god enlarge thy coast, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised to give unto thy fathers;

if thou shalt keep all these commandments to do them, which I command thee this day, to love the LORD thy god, and to walk ever in his ways; then shalt thou add three cities more for thee, beside these three:

if one be found slain in the land which the LORD thy god giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath slain him:

And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy god, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy god will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy god.

• Walking

The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy god, and walk in his ways.

And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy god, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:

But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy god, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:

• Glory

if thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY god;

if any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the LORD thy god gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:

if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy god, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the LORD thy god with all thine heart, and with all thy soul. For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off. It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? read more But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it. See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil; In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy god, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy god shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it. But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them; I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it. I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: That thou mayest love the LORD thy god, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them. show less

Notwithstanding, if the land of your possession be unclean, then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of the LORD, wherein the LORD'S tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession among us: but rebel not against the LORD, nor rebel against us, in building you an altar beside the altar of the LORD our god.

The LORD god of gods, the LORD god of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)

And if we have not rather done it for fear of this thing, saying, In time to come your children might speak unto our children, saying, What have ye to do with the LORD god of Israel?

And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet morning: if he be a god, let him plead for himself, because one hath cast down his altar.

And it was so: for he rose up early on the morrow, and thrust the fleece together, and wringed the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water. And Gideon said unto god, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew. read more And god did so that night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground. show less
