Genesis 4:5but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.Genesis 4:6“Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen?Genesis 4:8Then Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let us go out to the field.” And while they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.Genesis 16:5Then Sarai said to Abram, “May the wrong done to me be upon you! I delivered my servant into your arms, and ever since she saw that she was pregnant, she has treated me with contempt. May the LORD judge between you and me.”Genesis 37:4When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.Genesis 37:5Then Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him even more.Genesis 37:6He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had:Genesis 37:7We were binding sheaves of grain in the field, and suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around and bowed down to mine.”Genesis 37:8“Do you intend to reign over us?” his brothers asked. “Will you actually rule us?” So they hated him even more because of his dream and his statements.Genesis 37:9Then Joseph had another dream and told it to his brothers. “Look,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”Genesis 37:10He told his father and brothers, but his father rebuked him and said, “What is this dream that you have had? Will your mother and brothers and I actually come and bow down to the ground before you?”Genesis 37:11And his brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept in mind what he had said.Genesis 37:18Now Joseph’s brothers saw him in the distance, and before he arrived, they plotted to kill him.Genesis 37:19“Here comes that dreamer!” they said to one another.Genesis 37:20“Come now, let us kill him and throw him into one of the pits. We can say that a vicious animal has devoured him. Then we shall see what becomes of his dreams!”Genesis 37:21When Reuben heard this, he tried to rescue Joseph from their hands. “Let us not take his life,” he said.Genesis 37:22“Do not shed his blood. Throw him into this pit in the wilderness, but do not lay a hand on him.” Reuben said this so that he could rescue Joseph from their hands and return him to his father.Genesis 37:23So when Joseph came to his brothers, they stripped him of his robe—the robe of many colors he was wearing—Genesis 37:24and they took him and threw him into the pit. Now the pit was empty, with no water in it.Genesis 37:25And as they sat down to eat a meal, they looked up and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead. Their camels were carrying spices, balm, and myrrh on their way down to Egypt.Genesis 37:26Then Judah said to his brothers, “What profit will we gain if we kill our brother and cover up his blood?Genesis 37:27Come, let us sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay a hand on him; for he is our brother, our own flesh.” And they agreed.Genesis 37:28So when the Midianite traders passed by, his brothers pulled Joseph out of the pit and sold him for twenty shekels of silver to the Ishmaelites, who took him to Egypt.Exodus 20:5You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on their children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,Exodus 34:13Rather, you must tear down their altars, smash their sacred stones, and chop down their Asherah poles.Exodus 34:14For you must not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.Numbers 5:12“Speak to the Israelites and tell them that if any man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to himNumbers 5:13by sleeping with another man, and it is concealed from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she was not caught in the act),Numbers 5:14and if a feeling of jealousy comes over her husband and he suspects his wife who has defiled herself—or if a feeling of jealousy comes over him and he suspects her even though she has not defiled herself—Numbers 5:15then he is to bring his wife to the priest. He must also bring for her an offering of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, an offering of memorial as a reminder of iniquity.Numbers 5:16The priest is to bring the wife forward and have her stand before the LORD.Numbers 5:17Then he is to take some holy water in a clay jar and put some of the dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.Numbers 5:18After the priest has the woman stand before the LORD, he is to let down her hair and place in her hands the grain offering of memorial, which is the grain offering for jealousy. The priest is to hold the bitter water that brings a curse.Numbers 5:19And he is to put the woman under oath and say to her, ‘If no other man has slept with you and you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband’s authority, may you be immune to this bitter water that brings a curse.Numbers 5:20But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority and have defiled yourself and lain carnally with a man other than your husband’—Numbers 5:21and the priest shall have the woman swear under the oath of the curse—‘then may the LORD make you an attested curse among your people by making your thigh shrivel and your belly swell.Numbers 5:22May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach and cause your belly to swell and your thigh to shrivel.’ Then the woman is to say, ‘Amen, Amen.’Numbers 5:23And the priest shall write these curses on a scroll and wash them off into the bitter water.Numbers 5:24He is to have the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and it will enter her and may cause her bitter suffering.Numbers 5:25The priest shall take from her hand the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the LORD, and bring it to the altar.Numbers 5:26Then the priest is to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial portion and burn it on the altar; after that he is to have the woman drink the water.Numbers 5:27When he has made her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, then the water that brings a curse will enter her and cause bitter suffering; her belly will swell, her thigh will shrivel, and she will become accursed among her people.Numbers 5:28But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, she will be unaffected and able to conceive children.Numbers 5:29This is the law of jealousy when a wife goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband’s authority,Numbers 5:30or when a feeling of jealousy comes over a husband and he suspects his wife. He is to have the woman stand before the LORD, and the priest is to apply to her this entire law.Numbers 5:31The husband will be free from guilt, but the woman shall bear her iniquity.”Numbers 25:11“Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned My wrath away from the Israelites; for he was zealous for My sake among them, so that I did not consume the Israelites in My zeal.Deuteronomy 29:20The LORD will never be willing to forgive him. Instead, His anger and jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse written in this book will fall upon him. The LORD will blot out his name from under heavenDeuteronomy 32:16They provoked His jealousy with foreign gods; they enraged Him with abominations.Deuteronomy 32:21They have provoked My jealousy by that which is not God; they have enraged Me with their worthless idols. So I will make them jealous by those who are not a people; I will make them angry by a nation without understanding.Judges 8:1Then the men of Ephraim said to Gideon, “Why have you done this to us? Why did you fail to call us when you went to fight against Midian?” And they contended with him violently.Judges 12:1Then the men of Ephraim assembled and crossed the Jordan to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah, “Why have you crossed over to fight the Ammonites without calling us to go with you? We will burn your house down with you inside!”1 Samuel 18:8And Saul was furious and resented this song. “They have ascribed tens of thousands to David,” he said, “but only thousands to me. What more can he have but the kingdom?”1 Samuel 18:9And from that day forward Saul kept a jealous eye on David.1 Samuel 18:10The next day a spirit of distress sent from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied inside the house while David played the harp as usual. Now Saul was holding a spear,1 Samuel 18:11and he hurled it, thinking, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David eluded him twice.1 Samuel 18:12So Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with David but had departed from Saul.1 Samuel 18:13Therefore Saul sent David away and gave him command of a thousand men. David led the troops out to battle and back,1 Samuel 18:14and he continued to prosper in all his ways, because the LORD was with him.1 Samuel 18:15When Saul saw that David was very successful, he was afraid of him.
