The Tanach, with the evidence built in
This is the complete Hebrew Bible in the Jewish Publication Society translation. Wherever a real archaeological find bears on the text, those words are underlined in gold✦. Hover over them or tap them to see the artifact and what it confirms. From there, Next find takes you to the next underline, so you can tour a whole book’s evidence, and the share button turns the verse into an image.
Each chapter lists its finds under its title, and the chapter picker shows how many finds every book and chapter has. The AA button sets the text size, light or dark, and English, Hebrew, or the two together.
Psalm 12
1For the leader; on the sheminith. A psalm of David.
2Help, O LORD!For the faithful are no more;the loyal have vanished from among men.
3Men speak lies to one another;their speech is smooth;they talk with duplicity.
4May the LORD cut off all flattering lips,every tongue that speaks arrogance.
5They say, “By our tongues we shall prevail;with lips such as ours, who can be our master?”
6“Because of the groans of the plundered poor and needy,I will now act,” says the LORD.“I will give help,” He affirms to him.
7The words of the LORD are pure words,silver purged in an earthen crucible,refined sevenfold.
8You, O LORD, will keep them,guarding each from this age evermore.
9On every side the wicked roamwhen baseness is exalted among men.
