Gen.8
[1] And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and
all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass
over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
[2] The fountains also of the deep
and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was
restrained;
[3] And the waters returned from off
the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the
waters were abated.
[4] And the ark rested in the seventh
month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
[5] And the waters decreased
continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the
month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
Gen.9
[11] And I will establish my
covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of
a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to
destroy the earth.
[12] And God said, This is the token
of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that
is with you, for perpetual generations:
[13] I do set my bow in the cloud,
and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
[14] And it shall come to pass, when
I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
[15] And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living
creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy
all flesh.

it, that I may

Gen.19 [23] The sun was risen upon
the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
[24]
Then Yehovah rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah
brimstone and fire from Yehovah out of heaven;
[25]
And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of
the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
[26]
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
[27]
And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place
where he stood before Yehovah:
[28]
And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain,
and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a
furnace.
[29] And it came to pass, when God destroyed the
cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out
of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
Gen.30 [22] And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.
Exod.2 [23] And it came to pass in
process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed
by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by
reason of the bondage. [24] And God heard their
groaning, and God remembered his covenant
with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. [25] And God looked upon the children of Israel, and
God had respect unto them.
Exod.6[5] And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the
Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my
covenant.
[6] Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am Yehovah,
and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid
you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and
with great judgments:
[7]
And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye
shall know that I am Yehovah your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
[8]
And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning the which
I did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it
you for an heritage: I am Yehovah.
Exod.13[3] And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt,
out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand Yehovah
brought you out from this place: there shall no leavened bread be eaten. [4] This day came ye out in the month Abib / ha Aviv.
For us - Exod.20 [8] Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
[9] Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
[10] But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yehovah thy God: in it
thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor
thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy
stranger that is within thy gates:
[11] For in six days Yehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in
them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yehovah
blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Exod.32 [9] And Yehovah said unto
Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked
people:
[10]
Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I
may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.
[11]
And Moses besought Yehovah his God, and said, LORD,
why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth
out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?
[12]
Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For
mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume
them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this
evil against thy people. [13] Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to
whom thou swarest by thine
own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your
seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I
give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. [14] And Yehovah repented of the evil which He thought to do unto His
people.
Lev.26 [40] If they shall confess their iniquity, and the
iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against
me, and that also they have walked contrary unto me;
[41]
And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the
land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they
then accept of the punishment of their iniquity: [42] Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and
also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.
[43] The land also shall be left of them, and shall enjoy her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them: and they shall accept of the
punishment of their iniquity: because, even because they despised my judgments,
and because their soul abhorred my statutes.
[44]
And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not
cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to
break my covenant with them: for I am the LORD their God.
[45] But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their
ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of
Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am Yehovah. [46] These are the statutes
and judgments and laws, which Yehovah made between
him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the
hand of Moses.
Num.10
[1] And Yehovah
spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] Make thee
two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt
thou make them: that thou mayest use them for
the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps.
[3] And when they shall blow with
them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation.
[4] And if they blow but with one
trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall
gather themselves unto thee.
[5] When ye blow an alarm, then the
camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward.
[6] When ye blow an alarm the second
time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they
shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
[7] But when the congregation is
to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye
shall not sound an alarm.
[8] And the sons of Aaron, the
priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an
ordinance for ever throughout your generations.
[9] And if ye go to war in your land
against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall
blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before Yehovah your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
[10] Also in the day of your
gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye
shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices
of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a
memorial before your God: I am Yehovah your God.
Num.15 [38] Speak unto the children
of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in
the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they
put upon the fringe
of the borders a ribband of blue: [39] And it shall be unto you for a
fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of Yehovah, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own
heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring:[40] That ye
may remember, and do all my
commandments, and be holy unto your God.
We don’t wear such garments any more, but we do remember all the commandments of Yehovah our God, and do them and are holy unto our God.
Deut. 5 - The 10 commandments: The Sabbath,
the 4th commandment
Deut.5[15] And remember that thou wast a
servant in the land of Egypt, and that Yehovah thy
God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm:
therefore Yehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
Deut.7 [17] If thou shalt say in thine heart, These
nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them? [18] Thou shalt not be afraid of them:
but shalt well remember what Yehovah thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt;
[19] The great temptations which thine eyes saw,
and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the stretched out arm,
whereby Yehovah thy God brought thee out: so shall Yehovah thy God do unto all the people of whom thou art
afraid.
Deut.9[[24] Ye have been rebellious against Yehovah from
the day that I knew you.
[25]
Thus I fell down before Yehovah forty days and forty
nights, as I fell down at the first; because Yehovah
had said he would destroy you.
[26]
I prayed therefore unto Yehovah, and said, O Lord
GOD, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance,
which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth
out of Egypt with a mighty hand. 27] Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto
the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:
[28] Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out
say, Because Yehovah was not able to bring them into
the land which he promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought
them out to slay them in the wilderness.
[29]
Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which
thou broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy
stretched out arm.
Pss.111 [4] God hath made His wonderful works to be remembered: Yehovah is gracious and full of compassion.
Isa.65 [17] For, behold, I create new heavens and
a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered,
nor come into mind. [18] But be ye glad and
rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold,
I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
[19]
And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping
shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
[20]
There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not
filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner
being an hundred years old shall be accursed.

Deut.18 [18] I
will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and
will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall
command him.[19] And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words
which he shall speak in my name, I will
require it of him.
Mic.6 [7]
Will Yehovah be pleased with
thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall
I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of
my soul?
[8] He
hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Yehovah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly
with thy God?
Ecc.3[12] I know that there is no
good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.
[13]
And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
[14]
I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever:
nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it:
and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
[15]
That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
Ezekiel chapters 3, 18, 33 about the same, here is
Chapter 3
[1] Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of
Israel.
[2]
So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.
[3]
And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels
with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as
honey for sweetness.
[4]
And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and
speak with my words unto them.
[5]
For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language,
but to the house of Israel;
[6]
Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words
thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have
hearkened unto thee.
[7]
But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken
unto me: for all the house of Israel are impudent and hardhearted.
[8]
Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead
strong against their foreheads.
[9]
As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they be a
rebellious house.
[10]
Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto thee
receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears.
[11]
And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and
speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord Yehovah; whether
they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
[12] Then the spirit took me up, and I heard
behind me a voice of a great rushing, saying, Blessed be the glory of Yehovah from his place.
[13] I heard also the noise of the wings of the
living creatures that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels over
against them, and a noise of a great rushing.
[14]
So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I
went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of Yehovah was strong upon me.
[15]
Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel-abib,
that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat where
they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days.
[16]
And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of Yehovah came unto me,
saying,
[17] Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel:
therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.
[18]
When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die;
and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save
his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
[19] Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his
wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
[20] Again, When
a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I
lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die:
because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his
righteousness which he hath done shall
not be remembered; but his blood will I require at
thine hand.
[21] Nevertheless if thou warn
the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall
surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.
[22]
And the hand of Yehovah was there
upon me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will
there talk with thee.
[23]
Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of Yehovah stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river
of Chebar: and I fell on my face.
[24] Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spake with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine house.
[25]
But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, and shall bind
thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them:
[26]
And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be
to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house.
[27]
But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt
say unto them,
Thus saith the Lord Yehovah; He that heareth, let him
hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for
they are a rebellious house.
