~ before thine enemies ~ 05_DEU_28_25  The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies, thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them, and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth. #, 06_JOS_07_13  Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow, for thus saith the LORD God of Israel, [There is] an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O Israel, thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you. #, 10_2SA_24_13  So Gad came to David, and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thine enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be three days' pestilence in thy land? now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me. #,
