Psalm 105:12-15 Part 2 of 2

He said this when they were few in number,

    a tiny group of strangers in Canaan.

They wandered from nation to nation,

    from one kingdom to another.

Yet he did not let anyone oppress them.

    He warned kings on their behalf:

"Do not touch my chosen people,

    and do not hurt my prophets."

 

Yet he did not let anyone oppress them. He warned kings on their behalf: 

Genesis 20:3  But that night God came to Abimelek in a dream and told him, "You are a dead man, for that woman you have taken is already married!"

Genesis 20:6-7  In the dream God responded, "Yes, I know you are innocent. That's why I kept you from sinning against me, and why I did not let you touch her. Now return the woman to her husband, and he will pray for you, for he is a prophet. Then you will live. But if you don't return her to him, you can be sure that you and all your people will die."  (see all chapter 20)

Genesis 35:5  As they set out, a terror from God spread over the people in all the towns of that area, so no one attacked Jacob's family.  (see verses 1-15)

Psalm 9:5  

You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked;

    you have erased their names forever.  (see all Psalm 9)

Isaiah 26:14  

Those we served before are dead and gone.

    Their departed spirits will never return!

You attacked them and destroyed them,

    and they are long forgotten.  (see all chapter 26)

 

"Do not touch my chosen people, and do not hurt my prophets."  

1 Samuel 26:9  "No!" David said. "Don't kill him. For who can remain innocent after attacking the LORD's anointed one?"  

(see all chapter 26, also chapter 24)

Deuteronomy 18:17-18  "Then the LORD said to me, 'What they have said is right. I will raise up a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites. I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell the people everything I command him.' " (see verses 9-22)

Deuteronomy 34:10  There has never been another prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face.  (see all chapter 34)

2 Kings 3:11  But King Jehoshaphat of Judah asked, "Is there no prophet of the LORD with us? If there is, we can ask the LORD what to do through him."

    One of King Joram's (king of Israel) officers replied, "Elisha son of Shaphat is here. He used to be Elijah's personal assistant."  (see all chapter 3)
