הִנֵּה שֵׁם-יְהוָה בָּא מִמֶּרְחָק בֹּעֵר אַפּוֹ וְכֹבֶד מַשָּׂאָה שְׂפָתָיו מָלְאוּ זַעַם וּלְשׁוֹנוֹ כְּאֵשׁ אֹכָֽלֶת׃

Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:

Jeremiah 50:34

גֹּאֲלָם׀ חָזָק יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת שְׁמוֹ רִיב יָרִיב אֶת-רִיבָם לְמַעַן הִרְגִּיעַ אֶת-הָאָרֶץ וְהִרְגִּיז לְיֹשְׁבֵי בָבֶֽל׃

Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.

שָׁפְטֵנִי יְהוָה כִּֽי-אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי הָלַכְתִּי וּבַיהוָה בָּטַחְתִּי לֹא אֶמְעָֽד׃

Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

Micah 7:5

אַל-תַּאֲמִינוּ בְרֵעַ אַֽל-תִּבְטְחוּ בְּאַלּוּף מִשֹּׁכֶבֶת חֵיקֶךָ שְׁמֹר פִּתְחֵי-פִֽיךָ׃

Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.

Psalms 43:1

שָׁפְטֵנִי אֱלֹהִים׀ וְרִיבָה רִיבִי מִגּוֹי לֹא-חָסִיד מֵאִישׁ מִרְמָה וְעַוְלָה תְפַלְּטֵֽנִי׃

Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

1 Samuel 23:19

וַיַּֽעֲלוּ זִפִים אֶל-שָׁאוּל הַגִּבְעָתָה לֵאמֹר הֲלוֹא דָוִד מִסְתַּתֵּר עִמָּנוּ בַמְּצָדוֹת בַּחֹרְשָׁה בְּגִבְעַת הַֽחֲכִילָה אֲשֶׁר מִימִין הַיְשִׁימֽוֹן׃

Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of Jeshimon?

Exodus 23:21

הִשָּׁמֶר מִפָּנָיו וּשְׁמַע בְּקֹלוֹ אַל-תַּמֵּר בּוֹ כִּי לֹא יִשָּׂא לְפִשְׁעֲכֶם כִּי שְׁמִי בְּקִרְבּֽוֹ׃

Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.

Exodus 34:5

וַיֵּרֶד יְהוָה בֶּֽעָנָן וַיִּתְיַצֵּב עִמּוֹ שָׁם וַיִּקְרָא בְשֵׁם יְהוָֽה׃

And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD.

2 Chronicles 20:6

וַיֹּאמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹתֵינוּ הֲלֹא אַתָּה-הוּא אֱלֹהִים בַּשָּׁמַיִם וְאַתָּה מוֹשֵׁל בְּכֹל מַמְלְכוֹת הַגּוֹיִם וּבְיָֽדְךָ כֹּחַ וּגְבוּרָה וְאֵין עִמְּךָ לְהִתְיַצֵּֽב׃

And said, O LORD God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee?

Psalms 99:4

וְעֹז מֶלֶךְ מִשְׁפָּט אָהֵב אַתָּה כּוֹנַנְתָּ מֵישָׁרִים מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה בְּיַעֲקֹב׀ אַתָּה עָשִֽׂיתָ׃

The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

Proverbs 23:11

כִּֽי-גֹאֲלָם חָזָק הֽוּא-יָרִיב אֶת-רִיבָם אִתָּֽךְ׃

For their redeemer is mighty; he shall plead their cause with thee.

Ἰδοὺ ἡ παρθένος ἐν γαστρὶ ἕξει καὶ τέξεται υἱόν καὶ καλέσουσιν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἐμμανουήλ ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον Μεθ' ἡμῶν ὁ Θεός
