2 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “therefore” →
And he prayed unto the LORD , and said, I pray thee, O LORD , was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
Therefore now, O LORD , take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.
