| 13 | He said, Go and see where he is, that I may send and get him. It was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan. | 1Sa 23:22 1Sa 23:23 Ps 10:8-10 Ps 37:12-14 Ps 37:32-14 Ps 37:33-14 Jer 36:26 Mt 2:4-8 Jn 11:47-53 Ac 23:12-27 |

| 16 | He answered, Don`t be afraid; for those who are with us are more than those who are with them. | Ex 14:13 Ps 3:6 Ps 11:1 Ps 27:3 Ps 118:11 Ps 118:12 Isa 8:12 Isa 8:13 Isa 41:10-14 Mk 16:6 Ac 18:9 Ac 18:10 Php 1:28 |
