then

Then answered Esther, and said, My petition and my request is;

Then went Haman forth that day joyful and with a glad heart: but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king’s gate, that he stood not up, nor moved for him, he was full of indignation against Mordecai.

Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.

Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.

And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him.

Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.

Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour.

And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him.

Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request:

Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so?

And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.

Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.

Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.

And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon.

So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king’s wrath pacified.

Then the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther. So Esther arose, and stood before the king,

Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.

Then were the king’s scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews which are in Shushan to do to morrow also according unto this day’s decree, and let Haman’s ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.

Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority, to confirm this second letter of Purim.

And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?

Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,

Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die.

For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,

Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up:

Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.

Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions:

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.

Then Job answered and said,

If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?

Then would I speak, and not fear him; but it is not so with me.

If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.

Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!

Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,

Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,

If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him?

For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider it?

For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:

Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself from thee.

Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer thou me.

Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,

Then Job answered and said,

When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

Then Job answered and said,

Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,

How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood?

Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.

For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.

When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.

Then Job answered and said,

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?

Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?

Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.

When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:

Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand.

When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.

I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?

Then let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my offspring be rooted out.

Then let my wife grind unto another, and let others bow down upon her.

What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?

Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade, and mine arm be broken from the bone.

Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.

When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.

Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,

Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.

When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only:

When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only:

Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.

Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee.

Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.

Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great?

Then Job answered the LORD, and said,

Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.

None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?

Then Job answered the LORD, and said,

Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.

Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.

Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.

Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.

Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,

Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.

Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.

Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.
