7 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “enemies” →
That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
