3 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “cities” →
For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them , because of their own counsels.
I will be thy king: where is any other that may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and princes?
