Widows and children

  1.   24 And my awrath shall bwax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
  2.   13 But if the priest’s daughter be a widow, or divorced, and have no child, and is returned unto her father’s house, as in her youth, she shall eat of her father’s meat: but there shall no stranger eat thereof.
  3.   9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
  4.   8 Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a awidow, neither shall I know the bloss of children:
      9 But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee ain their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments.
  5.   21 Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death; let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.
  6.   11 Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy awidows trust in me.
  7.   4 But if any widow have achildren or bnephews, let them learn first to shew cpiety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.
  8.   17 Now there was a great number of women, more than there was of men; therefore king Limhi commanded that every man should aimpart to the support of the bwidows and their children, that they might not perish with hunger; and this they did because of the greatness of their number that had been slain.
  9.   9 Therefore it is an imperative duty that we owe, not only to our own wives and children, but to the awidows and fatherless, whose husbands and fathers have been bmurdered under its iron hand;
