But the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped out, since there was a crowd in that place.

When this sound ¹  occurred, a crowd gathered and was in confusion, ²  because each one heard them speaking in his own language.

When they heard the law, they removed from Israel all who were of mixed ancestry.

I will remember and weep! ¹  For I was once walking along with the great throng to the temple of God, shouting and giving thanks along with the crowd as we celebrated the holy festival. ² 

They trust ¹  in their wealth and boast ²  in their great riches.

Plans fail ¹  when there is no counsel, but with abundant advisers they are established. ² 

for with guidance you wage your war, and with numerous advisers there is victory. ¹ 

Then he called the crowd to him and said, ¹  “Listen and understand.

After instructing the crowd to sit down on the ground,

As they were leaving Jericho, ¹  a large crowd followed them.

When he heard a crowd going by, he asked what was going on.

Then ¹  the whole group of them rose up and brought Jesus ²  before Pilate. ³

Now the Midianites, Amalekites, and the people from the east covered the valley like a swarm of locusts. ¹  Their camels could not be counted; they were as innumerable as the sand on the seashore.

My advice therefore is this: Let all Israel from Dan to Beer Sheba – in number like the sand by the sea! – be mustered to you, and you lead them personally into battle.

When the men of Judah ¹  arrived at the observation post overlooking the desert and looked at ²  the huge army, they saw dead bodies on the ground; there were no survivors!

Therefore my ¹  people will be deported ²  because of their lack of understanding. Their ³  leaders will have nothing to eat, ⁴  their ⁵  masses will have nothing to drink. ⁶ 

Indeed, I terrified him in the land of the living, yet he will lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with those killed by the sword, Pharaoh and all his hordes, declares the sovereign Lord.”

But you have plowed wickedness; you have reaped injustice; you have eaten the fruit of deception. Because you have depended on your chariots; ¹  you have relied ²  on your many warriors.

the Angel ¹  who has protected me ²  from all harm – bless these boys. May my name be named in them, ³  and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac. May they grow into a multitude on the earth.”
