Löydetty 904 Tulokset: Fortified City

• If a trumpet sounds in a city, will the people not be frightened? If disaster strikes a city, has not Yahweh caused it? (Amos 3, 6)

• "Though I have made your teeth clean of food in every city, though I have made your bread in all your dwellings scarce, yet you did not return to me," says Yahweh. (Amos 4, 6)

• For Yahweh says this, "The city that went forth to war a thousand strong shall be left with a hundred, and that which went forth with a hundred shall be left with ten in Israel." (Amos 5, 3)

• He makes destruction flash forth against the strong, and brings ruin upon the fortified city. (Amos 5, 9)

• Yahweh has sworn by his life, "I hate the proud city of Jacob, I hate its palaces. I will hand over the city and all that fills it." (Amos 6, 8)

• This is what Yahweh says: Your wife shall be made a harlot in the city, your sons and daughters shall fall by the sword, your land shall be divided up and given to others, and you yourself shall die in a foreign land, for Israel shall be driven far from its land." (Amos 7, 17)

• "Go to Nineveh, the great city, and preach against it, because I have known its wickedness." (Jonah 1, 2)

• "Go to Nineveh, the great city, and announce to them the message I give you." (Jonah 3, 2)

• In obedience to the word of Yahweh, Jonah went to Nineveh. It was a very large city, and it took three days just to cross it. (Jonah 3, 3)

• The people of the city believed God. They declared a fast, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth. (Jonah 3, 5)

• Jonah then left the city. He went to a place east of it, built himself a shelter and sat under its shade to wait and see what would happen to Nineveh. (Jonah 4, 5)

• But Nineveh has more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot distinguish right from left and they have many cattle as well. Should I not be concerned for such a great city?" (Jonah 4, 11)
