12 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “among” →
Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.
The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.
A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren.
Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:
She also lieth in wait as for a prey, and increaseth the transgressors among men.
Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.
There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any;
Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
