Dwell

Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and raise livestock.

May God expand the territory of Japheth; may he dwell in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant.”

My master made me swear an oath and said, ‘You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites in whose land I dwell,

And may He give the blessing of Abraham to you and your descendants, so that you may possess the land where you dwell as a foreigner, the land God gave to Abraham.”

Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and become one people.

But only on this condition will the men agree to dwell with us and be one people: if all our men are circumcised as they are.

Will not their livestock, their possessions, and all their animals become ours? Only let us consent to them, and they will dwell among us.”

For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together; the land where they stayed could not support them because of their livestock.

…the land of Egypt is before you; settle your father and brothers in the best part of the land. They may dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know of any talented men among them, put them in charge of my own livestock.”

Zebulun shall dwell by the seashore and become a harbor for ships; his border shall extend to Sidon.

Then the chiefs of Edom will be dismayed; trembling will seize the leaders of Moab; those who dwell in Canaan will melt away,

And they are to make a sanctuary for Me, so that I may dwell among them.

Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God.

And they will know that I am the LORD their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I might dwell among them. I am the LORD their God.

You are to dwell in booths for seven days. All the native-born of Israel must dwell in booths,

You are to dwell in booths for seven days. All the native-born of Israel must dwell in booths,

…so that your descendants may know that I made the Israelites dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.’”

You are to keep My statutes and carefully observe My judgments, so that you may dwell securely in the land.

Then the land will yield its fruit, so that you can eat your fill and dwell in safety in the land.

Your threshing will continue until the grape harvest, and the grape harvest will continue until sowing time; you will have your fill of food to eat and will dwell securely in your land.

And I will lay waste the land, so that your enemies who dwell in it will be appalled.

You must send away male and female alike; send them outside the camp so they will not defile their camp, where I dwell among them.”

Is the land where they live good or bad? Are the cities where they dwell open camps or fortifications?

Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell. For I, the LORD, dwell among the Israelites.”

Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell. For I, the LORD, dwell among the Israelites.”

Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses in which to dwell,

When you cross the Jordan and live in the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, and He gives you rest from all the enemies around you and you dwell securely,

When brothers dwell together and one of them dies without a son, the widow must not marry outside the family. Her husband’s brother is to take her as his wife and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law for her.

…and said to them, “I know that the LORD has given you this land and that the fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who dwell in the land are melting in fear of you.

“The LORD has surely delivered the entire land into our hands,” they said to Joshua. “Indeed, all who dwell in the land are melting in fear of us.”

But the men of Israel said to the Hivites, “Perhaps you dwell near us. How can we make a treaty with you?”

…but the Israelites did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maacathites. So Geshur and Maacath dwell among the Israelites to this day.

But they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer. So the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites to this day, but they are forced laborers.

At that time Manasseh failed to drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, Megiddo, and their villages; for the Canaanites were determined to dwell in that land.

Ephraim also failed to drive out the Canaanites living in Gezer; so the Canaanites continued to dwell among them in Gezer.

And the Amorites were determined to dwell in Mount Heres, Aijalon, and Shaalbim. But when the house of Joseph grew in strength, they pressed the Amorites into forced labor.

And I said to you: ‘I am the LORD your God. You must not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell.’ But you did not obey Me.”

“Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: Are you the one to build for Me a house to dwell in?

And I will provide a place for My people Israel and will plant them so that they may dwell in a place of their own and be disturbed no more. No longer will the sons of wickedness oppress them as they did at the beginning

And I will dwell among the Israelites and will not abandon My people Israel.”

Then Solomon declared: “The LORD has said that He would dwell in the thick cloud.

I have indeed built You an exalted house, a place for You to dwell forever.”

But will God indeed dwell upon the earth? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.

“Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: You are not the one to build Me a house in which to dwell.

And I will provide a place for My people Israel and will plant them so that they may dwell in a place of their own and be disturbed no more. No longer will the sons of wickedness oppress them as they did at the beginning

For David had said, “The LORD, the God of Israel, has given rest to His people and has come to dwell in Jerusalem forever.

Then Solomon declared: “The LORD has said that He would dwell in the thick cloud.

But I have built You an exalted house, a place for You to dwell forever.”

But will God indeed dwell with man upon the earth? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.

For every dispute that comes before you from your brothers who dwell in their cities—whether it regards bloodshed or some other violation of law, commandments, statutes, or ordinances—you are to warn them, so that they will not incur guilt before the LORD and wrath will not come upon you and your brothers. Do this, and you will not incur guilt.

May God, who has caused His Name to dwell there, overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to alter this decree or to destroy this house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have issued the decree. Let it be carried out with diligence.

And they found written in the Law, which the LORD had commanded through Moses, that the Israelites were to dwell in booths during the feast of the seventh month,

Now the leaders of the people settled in Jerusalem, and the rest of the people cast lots to bring one out of ten to live in the holy city of Jerusalem, while the remaining nine were to dwell in their own towns.

…how much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundations are in the dust, who can be crushed like a moth!

…if you put away the iniquity in your hand, and allow no injustice to dwell in your tents,

…he will dwell in ruined cities, in abandoned houses destined to become rubble.

For you say, ‘Where now is the nobleman’s house, and where are the tents in which the wicked dwell?’

The dead tremble—those beneath the waters and those who dwell in them.

But where can wisdom be found, and where does understanding dwell?

From where, then, does wisdom come, and where does understanding dwell?

I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.

For You are not a God who delights in wickedness; no evil can dwell with You.

A Psalm of David. O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy mountain?

Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will dwell securely.

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and all who dwell therein.

His soul will dwell in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.

O LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides.

One thing I have asked of the LORD; this is what I desire: to dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and seek Him in His temple.

Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.

The righteous will inherit the land and dwell in it forever.

Send out Your light and Your truth; let them lead me. Let them bring me to Your holy mountain and to the place where You dwell.

Let me dwell in Your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah

Blessed is the one You choose and bring near to dwell in Your courts! We are filled with the goodness of Your house, the holiness of Your temple.

God settles the lonely in families; He leads the prisoners out to prosperity, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land.

Why do you gaze in envy, O mountains of many peaks? This is the mountain God chose for His dwelling, where the LORD will surely dwell forever.

You have ascended on high; You have led captives away. You have received gifts from men, even from the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.

May their place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in their tents.

For God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah, that they may dwell there and possess it.

Remember Your congregation, which You purchased long ago and redeemed as the tribe of Your inheritance—Mount Zion, where You dwell.

How blessed are those who dwell in Your house! They are ever praising You. Selah

For better is one day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.

Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, that His glory may dwell in our land.

Let the sea resound, and all that fills it, the world, and all who dwell in it.

My eyes favor the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks in the way of integrity shall minister to me.

No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence.

The children of Your servants will dwell securely, and their descendants will be established before You.”

Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no path to a city in which to dwell.

He causes the hungry to settle there, that they may establish a city in which to dwell.

Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech, that I live among the tents of Kedar!

“This is My resting place forever and ever; here I will dwell, for I have desired this home.

Surely the righteous will praise Your name; the upright will dwell in Your presence.

For the enemy has pursued my soul, crushing my life to the ground, making me dwell in darkness like those long since dead.

But whoever listens to me will dwell in safety, secure from the fear of evil.”

I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence, and I find knowledge and discretion.

He who listens to life-giving reproof will dwell among the wise.

You who dwell in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice. Let me hear it!

Therefore this is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “O My people who dwell in Zion, do not fear Assyria, who strikes you with a rod and lifts his staff against you as the Egyptians did.

But desert creatures will lie down there, and howling creatures will fill her houses. Ostriches will dwell there, and wild goats will leap about.

For He has humbled those who dwell on high; He lays the lofty city low. He brings it down to the ground; He casts it into the dust.
