Exodus 28:2 וּלְתִפְאָֽרֶת׃ and for beauty

Make holy garments for your brother Aaron, to give him glory and splendor.

Here: 'And for splendor': the garments' showy beauty and magnificence, the kind of thing one is proud to display. Paired with kavod, it describes clothing that is both dignified and dazzling.

Exodus 28:40 וּלְתִפְאָֽרֶת׃ and for beauty

Make tunics, sashes, and headbands for Aaron’s sons, to give them glory and splendor.

Deuteronomy 26:19 וּלְתִפְאָ֑רֶת and for honor

that He will set you high in praise and name and honor above all the nations He has made, and that you will be a holy people to the LORD your God, as He has promised.

Here: "And for splendour", the shining beauty of something worn or displayed with pride (Isa 62:3, "a crown of splendour"). It is the third and highest word in the honour series. The main accent in the verse falls here and closes the first half.

Judges 4:9 תִּֽפְאַרְתְּךָ֗ honor your

“I will certainly go with you,” Deborah replied, “but the road you are taking will bring you no honor, because the LORD will be selling Sisera into the hand of a woman.” So Deborah got up and went with Barak to Kedesh,

1 Chronicles 22:5 וּלְתִפְאֶ֙רֶת֙ and for honor

And David said, “My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the LORD must be exceedingly magnificent—famous and glorious throughout all lands. Therefore I must make preparations for it.” So David made lavish preparations before his death.

1 Chronicles 29:11 וְהַתִּפְאֶ֙רֶת֙ and the splendor

Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the splendor and the majesty, for everything in heaven and on earth belongs to You. Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom, and You are exalted as head over all.

Here: Beauty on display, the kind of splendor that adorns: used of priestly garments, crowns and ornaments, and of what one can rightly boast in.

1 Chronicles 29:13 תִּפְאַרְתֶּֽךָ׃ splendor your

Now therefore, our God, we give You thanks, and we praise Your glorious name.

Here: Literally 'the name of your splendor'. Hebrew uses this kind of phrase where English uses an adjective, so 'your glorious/splendid name'. The word means beauty, adornment and the splendor someone is proud of, and it repeats the tif'eret ascribed to God in v. 11.

2 Chronicles 3:6 לְתִפְאָ֑רֶת for beauty

He adorned the temple with precious stones for beauty, and its gold was from Parvaim.

Esther 1:4 תִּפְאֶ֖רֶת [the] glory of

And for a full 180 days he displayed the glorious riches of his kingdom and the magnificent splendor of his greatness.

Psalm 71:8 תִּפְאַרְתֶּֽךָ׃ splendor your

My mouth is filled with Your praise and with Your splendor all day long.

Here: 'Your splendor.' The beauty and glory of God that shows on the outside, the way splendid robes or a crown are seen. It is the second thing filling the mouth, so it pairs with 'your praise'.

Psalm 78:61 וְֽתִפְאַרְתּ֥וֹ and splendor his

He delivered His strength to captivity, and His splendor to the hand of the adversary.

Psalm 89:17 תִפְאֶ֣רֶת [are] [the] splendor of

For You are the glory of their strength, and by Your favor our horn is exalted.

Here: The visible glory or adornment of something, the thing that makes it impressive and that one can be proud of. Here it is in a linked phrase, "the splendor of their strength": God is what makes their strength glorious, the thing their strength is really made of and the thing they boast in.

Psalm 96:6 וְ֝תִפְאֶ֗רֶת and splendor

Splendor and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty fill His sanctuary.

Here: 'And glorious beauty.' This is beauty that brings honor and glory, the word used for the high priest's garments and the temple's splendor. It is more than prettiness. Paired with 'oz it may also bring to mind the ark of the covenant (compare Psalm 78:61).

Proverbs 4:9 תִּפְאֶ֣רֶת beauty

She will set a garland of grace on your head; she will present you with a crown of beauty.”

Proverbs 16:31 תִּפְאֶ֣רֶת splendor

Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is attained along the path of righteousness.

Here: Describes the crown: an ornament that is beautiful and brings honor to the one wearing it. Its ending (-eret) rhymes with the word before it, so the opening phrase rings: ʿateret tifʾeret.

Proverbs 17:6 וְתִפְאֶ֖רֶת and [are the] honor of

Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of a son is his father.

Here: 'And the splendour of', or 'the pride of'. It means what a person is adorned with and boasts in, the thing that gives them standing. The 'and' joins two parallel lines rather than setting up a contrast.

Proverbs 19:11 וְ֝תִפאַרְתּ֗וֹ and glory his

A man’s insight gives him patience, and his virtue is to overlook an offense.

Here: 'And his splendour'. This means what adorns a person and brings him honour in the eyes of others, like a crown or fine clothing. It is not an inner moral quality hidden from view.

Proverbs 20:29 תִּפְאֶ֣רֶת [the] glory of

The glory of young men is their strength, and gray hair is the splendor of the old.

Here: The thing that makes someone look fine and that they can rightly be proud of, their showpiece. It is in a bound form ('the beauty of…') and opens the line with the topic: what is the young man's adornment?

Proverbs 28:12 תִפְאָ֑רֶת glory

When the righteous triumph, there is great glory, but when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.

Here: Visible splendor and honor. Here it is the festive, public brilliance of a community in celebration, out in the open. It stands opposite the hiding in the second line.

Isaiah 3:18 תִּפְאֶ֧רֶת [the] splendor of

In that day the Lord will take away their finery: their anklets and headbands and crescents;

Isaiah 4:2 וּלְתִפְאֶ֔רֶת and <into> honor

On that day the Branch of the LORD will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land will be the pride and glory of Israel’s survivors.

Here: 'And for splendor / finery.' The same word is used in 3:18 for the 'finery' the Lord strips off Jerusalem's women. God now gives back a better ornament.

Isaiah 10:12 תִּפְאֶ֖רֶת [the] glory of

So when the Lord has completed all His work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, He will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the fruit of his arrogant heart and the proud look in his eyes.

Here: Usually a positive word for splendor or glory. Here it is the king's self-glorifying display, his swagger. It shares a root with 'boast' in v.15 (yitpaʾer).

Isaiah 13:19 תִּפְאֶ֖רֶת [the] splendor of

And Babylon, the jewel of the kingdoms, the glory of the pride of the Chaldeans, will be overthrown by God like Sodom and Gomorrah.

Here: Splendor on display, the kind of beauty people show off. In Isaiah the word can tip into boasting (10:12, Assyria's 'boastful looks'). Here it praises Babylon and quietly accuses it at once.

Isaiah 20:5 תִּפְאַרְתָּֽם׃ boasting their

Those who made Cush their hope and Egypt their boast will be dismayed and ashamed.

Here: 'Their splendor', meaning the impressive thing they showed off and took pride in. The word comes from a root that also means 'to boast'. In context it is the ally they bragged about. It sits right after v. 4, where Egypt is led away stripped naked, so the 'splendor' ends in exposure.

Isaiah 28:1 תִפְאַרְתּ֑וֹ splendor its

Woe to the majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards, to the fading flower of his glorious splendor, set on the summit above the fertile valley, the pride of those overcome by wine.

Here: 'His' refers to Ephraim. Paired with ṣəbî it makes a doubled phrase, 'the beauty of his splendor', which stresses how dazzling the city looked, just before the image wilts.

Isaiah 28:4 תִפְאַרְתּ֔וֹ splendor its

The fading flower of his beautiful splendor, set on the summit above the fertile valley, will be like a ripe fig before the summer harvest: Whoever sees it will take it in his hand and swallow it.

Isaiah 28:5 תִּפְאָרָ֑ה splendor

On that day the LORD of Hosts will be a crown of glory, a diadem of splendor to the remnant of His people,

Here: "Splendor": something showy that brings honor to the one who wears it. This also repeats the vocabulary of verses 1 and 4 ("his glorious beauty").

Isaiah 44:13 כְּתִפְאֶ֥רֶת like [the] beauty of

The woodworker extends a measuring line; he marks it out with a stylus; he shapes it with chisels and outlines it with a compass. He fashions it in the likeness of man, like man in all his glory, that it may dwell in a shrine.

Isaiah 46:13 תִּפְאַרְתִּֽי׃ ס splendor my

I am bringing My righteousness near; it is not far away, and My salvation will not be delayed. I will grant salvation to Zion and adorn Israel with My splendor.

Here: "My splendor/beauty." It may mean that God gives His splendor to Israel (WEB, BSB, Vulgate) or that Israel is His splendor, the people in whom He shows His beauty (KJV, ESV). Both readings have parallels in Isaiah.

Isaiah 52:1 תִפְאַרְתֵּ֗ךְ beauty your

Awake, awake, clothe yourself with strength, O Zion! Put on your garments of splendor, O Jerusalem, holy city! For the uncircumcised and unclean will no longer enter you.

Here: 'Your beauty/splendor': the honour-giving finery of festival, bride or priest; the opposite of mourning clothes. 'Garments of your beauty' means her splendid clothes.

Isaiah 60:7 תִּפְאַרְתִּ֖י splendor my

All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you; the rams of Nebaioth will serve you and go up on My altar with acceptance; I will adorn My glorious house.

Here: "My beauty/splendour." The temple is the house that shows off God's splendour, and it is the thing he takes pride in.

Isaiah 60:19 לְתִפְאַרְתֵּֽךְ׃ <into> splendor your

No longer will the sun be your light by day, nor the brightness of the moon shine on your night; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your splendor.

Here: 'For your beauty' or 'as your splendour.' It means the ornament or splendour that makes someone admired and that they are proud of. God himself will be what makes Zion beautiful and honoured.

Isaiah 62:3 תִּפְאֶ֖רֶת beauty

You will be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, a royal diadem in the palm of your God.

Here: Describes the crown: an ornament of beauty, something that brings its owner pride and splendor. It echoes God's promise in chs. 60–61 to 'beautify' (paʾar) Zion and himself through her.

Isaiah 63:12 תִּפְאַרְתּ֑וֹ splendor his

who sent His glorious arm to lead them by the right hand of Moses, who divided the waters before them to gain for Himself everlasting renown,

Here: 'His splendor'. 'The arm of his splendor' is a Hebrew way of saying 'his splendid arm'. The word also carries the idea of honour and boast, which looks ahead to the 'name' at the end of the verse.

Isaiah 63:14 תִּפְאָֽרֶת׃ splendor

Like cattle going down to the valley, the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest. You led Your people this way to make for Yourself a glorious name.

Isaiah 63:15 וְתִפְאַרְתֶּ֑ךָ and splendor your

Look down from heaven and see, from Your holy and glorious habitation. Where are Your zeal and might? Your yearning and compassion for me are restrained.

Here: 'And your splendor': the beauty that wins honour. The word picks up 63:14 ('a glorious name') and looks ahead to 64:11, where 'our holy and glorious house' has been burned.

Isaiah 64:11 וְתִפְאַרְתֵּ֗נוּ and splendor our

Our holy and beautiful temple, where our fathers praised You, has been burned with fire, and all that was dear to us lies in ruins.

Here: The second quality of the house: its splendour, the glory the people were proud of. The word echoes 63:15, where God's heavenly dwelling is called "your holy and splendid" home. The earthly house of holiness and splendour now lies burned.

Jeremiah 13:11 וּלְתִפְאָ֑רֶת and <into> honor

For just as a loincloth clings to a man’s waist, so I have made the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah cling to Me, declares the LORD, so that they might be My people for My renown and praise and glory. But they did not listen.

Jeremiah 13:18 תִּֽפְאַרְתְּכֶֽם׃ splendor your

Say to the king and to the queen mother: “Take a lowly seat, for your glorious crowns have fallen from your heads.”

Here: "Your splendor," the beauty and glory that people display and take pride in. It echoes 13:11, where God meant Israel to be his "glory," and 13:20, "your beautiful flock." The splendor the court kept for itself is the thing that falls.

Jeremiah 13:20 תִּפְאַרְתֵּֽךְ׃ beauty your

Lift up your eyes and see those coming from the north. Where is the flock entrusted to you, the sheep that were your pride?

Here: 'Your glory/your pride': what Jerusalem boasted in and what gave her standing. It echoes the 'crown of your glory' that falls in v. 18 and the 'glory' Israel was meant to be for God in v. 11.

Jeremiah 33:9 וּלְתִפְאֶ֔רֶת and <into> honor

So this city will bring Me renown, joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I do for it. They will tremble in awe because of all the goodness and prosperity that I will provide for it.

Here: Beauty that is shown off, like an ornament or fine clothing. It is the honour of something worn proudly.

Jeremiah 48:17 תִּפְאָרָֽה׃ splendor

Mourn for him, all you who surround him, everyone who knows his name; tell how the mighty scepter is shattered—the glorious staff!

Lamentations 2:1 תִּפְאֶ֖רֶת [the] splendor of

How the Lord has covered the Daughter of Zion with the cloud of His anger! He has cast the glory of Israel from heaven to earth. He has abandoned His footstool in the day of His anger.

Here: Israel's 'splendor' or 'pride': the thing that gave the nation honor and was its boast. Most likely this means the temple, or Jerusalem with its temple.

Ezekiel 16:12 תִּפְאֶ֖רֶת beauty

I put a ring in your nose, earrings on your ears, and a beautiful crown upon your head.

Ezekiel 16:17 תִפְאַרְתֵּ֗ךְ beauty your

You also took the fine jewelry of gold and silver I had given you, and you made male idols with which to prostitute yourself.

Ezekiel 16:39 תִפְאַרְתֵּ֑ךְ beauty your

Then I will deliver you into the hands of your lovers, and they will level your mounds and tear down your lofty shrines. They will strip off your clothes, take your fine jewelry, and leave you naked and bare.

Ezekiel 23:26 תִפְאַרְתֵּֽךְ׃ beauty your

They will strip off your clothes and take your fine jewelry.

accompanied by the sound of a carefree crowd. Drunkards were brought in from the desert along with men from the rabble, who put bracelets on your wrists and beautiful crowns on your head.

Ezekiel 24:25 תִּפְאַרְתָּ֑ם splendor their

And you, son of man, know that on the day I take away their stronghold, their pride and joy—the desire of their eyes which uplifted their souls—and their sons and daughters as well,

Zechariah 12:7 תִּפְאֶ֣רֶת וְתִפְאֶ֛רֶת [the] splendor of, and [the] splendor of

The LORD will save the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of the house of David and of the people of Jerusalem may not be greater than that of Judah.

Here: "The splendor of." Here it means public prestige, what a group is admired for and boasts in. It is a human honor, not the radiance of God.
