Heard

At the sound of Babylon’s capture the earth will quake; a cry will be heard among the nations.

Do not let your heart grow faint, and do not be afraid when the rumor is heard in the land; for a rumor will come one year—and then another the next year—of violence in the land and of ruler against ruler.

“We are ashamed because we have heard reproach; disgrace has covered our faces, because foreigners have entered the holy places of the LORD’s house.”

People have heard my groaning, but there is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that You have caused it. May You bring the day You have announced, so that they may become like me.

People have heard my groaning, but there is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that You have caused it. May You bring the day You have announced, so that they may become like me.

You heard my plea: “Do not ignore my cry for relief.”

O LORD, You have heard their insults, all their plots against me—

When the creatures moved, I heard the sound of their wings like the roar of many waters, like the voice of the Almighty, like the tumult of an army. When they stood still, they lowered their wings.

The appearance of the brilliant light all around Him was like that of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell facedown and heard a voice speaking.

And as He spoke to me, the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet, and I heard Him speaking to me.

Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard a great rumbling sound behind me: “Blessed be the glory of the LORD in His dwelling place!”

Then I heard Him call out in a loud voice, saying, “Draw near, O executioners of the city, each with a weapon of destruction in hand.”

The sound of the wings of the cherubim could be heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when He speaks.

I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.”

When the nations heard of him, he was trapped in their pit. With hooks they led him away to the land of Egypt.

With hooks they caged him and brought him to the king of Babylon. They brought him into captivity so that his roar was heard no longer on the mountains of Israel.

So I will silence the sound of your songs, and the music of your lyres will no longer be heard.

Since he heard the sound of the horn but failed to heed the warning, his blood will be on his own head. If he had heeded the warning, he would have saved his life.

Then you will know that I, the LORD, have heard every contemptuous word you uttered against the mountains of Israel when you said, ‘They are desolate; they are given to us to devour!’

You boasted against Me with your mouth and multiplied your words against Me. I heard it Myself!

I will no longer allow the taunts of the nations to be heard against you, and you will no longer endure the reproach of the peoples or cause your nation to stumble, declares the Lord GOD.”

While the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple,

Therefore, as soon as all the people heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, and all kinds of music, the people of every nation and language would fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

I have heard that the spirit of the gods is in you, and that you have insight, intelligence, and extraordinary wisdom.

But I have heard about you, that you are able to give interpretations and solve difficult problems. Therefore, if you can read this inscription and give me its interpretation, you will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around your neck, and you will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”

As soon as the king heard this, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel, and he labored until sundown to rescue him.

Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said to him, “How long until the fulfillment of the vision of the daily sacrifice, the rebellion that causes desolation, and the surrender of the sanctuary and of the host to be trampled?”

And I heard the voice of a man calling from between the banks of the Ulai: “Gabriel, explain the vision to this man.”

I heard the sound of his words, and as I listened, I fell into a deep sleep, with my face to the ground.

“Do not be afraid, Daniel,” he said, “for from the first day that you purposed to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them.

And the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by Him who lives forever, saying, “It will be for a time, and times, and half a time. When the power of the holy people has finally been shattered, all these things will be completed.”

I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these things?”

This is the vision of Obadiah: This is what the Lord GOD says about Edom—We have heard a message from the LORD; an envoy has been sent among the nations to say, “Rise up, and let us go to battle against her!”—

…saying: “In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered me. From the belly of Sheol I called for help, and You heard my voice.

“Behold, I am against you,” declares the LORD of Hosts. “I will reduce your chariots to cinders, and the sword will devour your young lions. I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voices of your messengers will no longer be heard.”

O LORD, I have heard the report of You; I stand in awe, O LORD, of Your deeds. Revive them in these years; make them known in these years. In Your wrath, remember mercy!

I heard and trembled within; my lips quivered at the sound. Decay entered my bones; I trembled where I stood. Yet I must wait patiently for the day of distress to come upon the people who invade us.

“I have heard the reproach of Moab and the insults of the Ammonites, who have taunted My people and threatened their borders.

This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “In those days ten men from the nations of every tongue will tightly grasp the robe of a Jew, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.’”

At that time those who feared the LORD spoke with one another, and the LORD listened and heard them. So a scroll of remembrance was written before Him regarding those who feared the LORD and honored His name.

When King Herod heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.

After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stood over the place where the Child was.

“A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”

When Jesus heard that John had been imprisoned, He withdrew to Galilee.

You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not murder’ and ‘Anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’

You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’

Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’

You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’

You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’ and ‘Hate your enemy.’

And when you pray, do not babble on like pagans, for they think that by their many words they will be heard.

When Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those following Him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.

Meanwhile John heard in prison about the works of Christ, and he sent his disciples

But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “Only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, does this man drive out demons.”

At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus

When Jesus heard about John, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. But the crowds found out about it and followed Him on foot from the towns.

Then the disciples came to Him and said, “Are You aware that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”

When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown in terror.

When the young man heard this, he went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.

When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers.

And there were two blind men sitting beside the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”

And when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they themselves gathered together.

At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “He has blasphemed! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy.

A few days later Jesus went back to Capernaum. And when the people heard that He was home,

Jerusalem, Idumea, the region beyond the Jordan, and the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon. The large crowd came to Him when they heard what great things He was doing.

When His family heard about this, they went out to take custody of Him, saying, “He is out of His mind.”

When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.

When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?

Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ name had become well known, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

…because Herod feared John and protected him, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man. When he heard John’s words, he was greatly perplexed; yet he listened to him gladly.

When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

…and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet.

When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John.

When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”

Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this statement.

When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they looked for a way to kill Him. For they were afraid of Him, because the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.

Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”

“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this man-made temple, and in three days I will build another that is made without hands.’”

You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?” And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

When some of those standing nearby heard this, they said, “Behold, He is calling Elijah.”

And when they heard that Jesus was alive and she had seen Him, they did not believe it.

But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John.

When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they rejoiced with her.

And all who heard this wondered in their hearts and asked, “What then will this child become?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.

And all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.

The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, which was just as the angel had told them.

And all who heard Him were astounded at His understanding and His answers.

Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”

When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.

When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”

So He replied, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.

All the people who heard this, even the tax collectors, acknowledged God’s justice. For they had received the baptism of John.

When Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, he was perplexed. For some were saying that John had risen from the dead,
