Genesis 39:7and after some time his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph and said, “Sleep with me.”Genesis 39:8But he refused. “Look,” he said to his master’s wife, “with me here, my master does not concern himself with anything in his house, and he has entrusted everything he owns to my care.Genesis 39:9No one in this house is greater than I am. He has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. So how could I do such a great evil and sin against God?”Genesis 39:10Although Potiphar’s wife spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to go to bed with her or even be near her.Genesis 39:11One day, however, Joseph went into the house to attend to his work, and not a single household servant was inside.Genesis 39:12She grabbed Joseph by his cloak and said, “Sleep with me!” But leaving his cloak in her hand, he escaped and ran outside.Genesis 39:13When she saw that he had left his cloak in her hand and had run out of the house,Genesis 39:14she called her household servants. “Look,” she said, “this Hebrew has been brought to us to make sport of us. He came to me so he could sleep with me, but I screamed as loud as I could.Genesis 39:15When he heard me scream for help, he left his cloak beside me and ran out of the house.”Genesis 39:16So Potiphar’s wife kept Joseph’s cloak beside her until his master came home.Genesis 39:17Then she told him the same story: “The Hebrew slave you brought us came to me to make sport of me,Genesis 39:18but when I screamed for help, he left his cloak beside me and ran out of the house.”Genesis 39:19When his master heard the story his wife told him, saying, “This is what your slave did to me,” he burned with anger.Genesis 39:20So Joseph’s master took him and had him thrown into the prison where the king’s prisoners were confined. While Joseph was there in the prison,Genesis 42:9Joseph remembered his dreams about them and said, “You are spies! You have come to see if our land is vulnerable.”Genesis 42:10“Not so, my lord,” they replied. “Your servants have come to buy food.Genesis 42:11We are all sons of one man. Your servants are honest men, not spies.”Genesis 42:12“No,” he told them. “You have come to see if our land is vulnerable.”Genesis 42:13But they answered, “Your servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan. The youngest is now with our father, and one is no more.”Genesis 42:14Then Joseph declared, “Just as I said, you are spies!Exodus 23:1“You shall not spread a false report. Do not join the wicked by being a malicious witness.Exodus 23:7Stay far away from a false accusation. Do not kill the innocent or the just, for I will not acquit the guilty.Leviticus 19:16You must not go about spreading slander among your people. You must not endanger the life of your neighbor. I am the LORD.Numbers 16:3They came together against Moses and Aaron and told them, “You have taken too much upon yourselves! For everyone in the entire congregation is holy, and the LORD is in their midst. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the LORD?”Numbers 16:13Is it not enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to kill us in the wilderness? Must you also appoint yourself as ruler over us?1 Samuel 22:11Then the king sent messengers to summon Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and his father’s whole family, who were priests at Nob. And all of them came to the king.1 Samuel 22:12“Listen now, son of Ahitub,” said Saul. “Here I am, my lord,” he replied.1 Samuel 22:13And Saul asked him, “Why have you and the son of Jesse conspired against me? You gave him bread and a sword and inquired of God for him so that he could rise up against me to lie in wait, as he is doing today.”1 Samuel 22:14Ahimelech answered the king, “Who among all your servants is as faithful as David, the king’s son-in-law, the captain of your bodyguard and honored in your house?1 Samuel 22:15Was that day the first time I inquired of God for him? Far be it from me! Let not the king accuse your servant or any of my father’s household, for your servant knew nothing of this whole affair—not in part or in whole.”1 Samuel 22:16But the king replied, “You will surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father’s house!”2 Samuel 3:24So Joab went to the king and said, “What have you done? Look, Abner came to you. Why did you dismiss him? Now he is getting away!2 Samuel 3:25Surely you realize that Abner son of Ner came to deceive you and to track your movements and all that you are doing.”2 Samuel 3:26As soon as Joab had left David, he sent messengers after Abner, who brought him back from the well of Sirah. But David was unaware of it.2 Samuel 3:27When Abner returned to Hebron, Joab pulled him aside into the gateway, as if to speak to him privately, and there Joab stabbed him in the stomach. So Abner died on account of the blood of Joab’s brother Asahel.2 Samuel 10:3the princes of the Ammonites said to Hanun their lord, “Just because David has sent you comforters, do you really believe he is showing respect for your father?

It was written in Aramaic and then translated.Ezra 4:8Rehum the commander and Shimshai the scribe wrote the letter against Jerusalem to King Artaxerxes as follows:Ezra 4:9From Rehum the commander, Shimshai the scribe, and the rest of their associates—the judges and officials over Tripolis, Persia, Erech and Babylon, the Elamites of Susa,Ezra 4:10and the rest of the peoples whom the great and honorable Ashurbanipal deported and settled in the cities of Samaria and elsewhere west of the Euphrates.Ezra 4:11(This is the text of the letter they sent to him.) To King Artaxerxes, From your servants, the men west of the Euphrates:Ezra 4:12Let it be known to the king that the Jews who came from you to us have returned to Jerusalem and are rebuilding that rebellious and wicked city. They are restoring its walls and repairing its foundations.Ezra 4:13Let it now be known to the king that if that city is rebuilt and its walls are restored, they will not pay tribute, duty, or toll, and the royal treasury will suffer.Ezra 4:14Now because we are in the service of the palace and it is not fitting for us to allow the king to be dishonored, we have sent to inform the kingEzra 4:15that a search should be made of the record books of your fathers. In these books you will discover and verify that the city is a rebellious city, harmful to kings and provinces, inciting sedition from ancient times. That is why this city was destroyed.Ezra 4:16We advise the king that if this city is rebuilt and its walls are restored, you will have no dominion west of the Euphrates.Nehemiah 6:6that read: “It is reported among the nations—and Geshem agrees—that you and the Jews are plotting to revolt, and this is why you are building the wall. According to these reports, you are to become their king,Nehemiah 6:7and you have even appointed prophets in Jerusalem to proclaim on your behalf: ‘There is a king in Judah.’ Soon these rumors will reach the ears of the king.
