Instead, it is often used as an adjective to describe something that is certain, reliable, or steadfast. In biblical literature, the concept of being "sure" is frequently associated with God's promises, His faithfulness, and the assurance believers can have in His word and salvation.<br><br><b>Biblical Usage:</b><br>The word "sure" appears in various contexts throughout the Bible, often emphasizing the certainty and reliability of God's promises and the security of His covenant with His people. It is used to convey the idea of trustworthiness and the unchanging nature of God's word.<br><br><b>Key Verses:</b><br><br>1. <b><a href="/psalms/19-7.htm">Psalm 19:7</a> :</b> "The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple." Here, the word "trustworthy" is synonymous with "sure," highlighting the reliability of God's law and testimony.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/isaiah/55-3.htm">Isaiah 55:3</a> :</b> "Incline your ear and come to Me; listen, so that your soul may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, My loving devotion assured to David." The assurance of God's covenant with David is described as "sure," emphasizing its eternal and unbreakable nature.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/2_peter/1-19.htm">2 Peter 1:19</a> :</b> "We also have the word of the prophets as confirmed beyond doubt. And you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts." The prophetic word is described as "confirmed beyond doubt," indicating its surety and reliability.<br><br><b>Theological Significance:</b><br>In theological terms, the concept of "sure" is foundational to understanding the nature of faith and trust in God. The assurance of God's promises provides believers with confidence and hope. This assurance is not based on human effort or understanding but on the character and faithfulness of God Himself.<br><br><b>Applications for Believers:</b><br>For Christians, the idea of being "sure" is integral to the life of faith. It encourages believers to trust in God's promises, rely on His word, and find security in His unchanging nature. This assurance is a source of comfort and strength, especially in times of uncertainty and trial.<br><br><b>Related Concepts:</b><br><br>&#183; <b>Faithfulness:</b> The surety of God's promises is closely linked to His faithfulness. Believers are called to reflect this attribute in their own lives.<br> <br>&#183; <b>Covenant:</b> The surety of God's covenant with His people is a recurring theme in Scripture, underscoring the permanence and reliability of His commitments.<br><br>&#183; <b>Hope:</b> The assurance of God's promises fuels the hope that believers hold, looking forward to the fulfillment of His word.<br><br>In summary, the concept of "sure" in the Bible underscores the certainty and reliability of God's promises, His word, and His covenant with His people, providing a foundation for faith and hope in the life of a believer.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

The adjectival use, however, is common (chiefly for 'aman, "to confirm," and its derivatives) in English Versions of the Bible, where modern English would prefer "secure" or "certain" (<a href="/1_samuel/2-35.htm">1 Samuel 2:35</a>; Sir 40:25; <a href="/acts/13-34.htm">Acts 13:34</a>, etc.). "To be sure that" is also fairly common in the King James Version, and occasionally (as in <a href="/deuteronomy/12-23.htm">Deuteronomy 12:23</a>, "Be sure that thou eat not the blood," for chazaq, "to be firm") it has rather more emphasis than in modern English. But usually the phrase is a mere periphrasis for some word meaning "to know" (compare the Revised Version (British and American) <a href="/exodus/3-19.htm">Exodus 3:19</a> <a href="/luke/10-11.htm">Luke 10:11</a> <a href="/romans/2-2.htm">Romans 2:2</a>, etc.). In <a href="/proverbs/6-3.htm">Proverbs 6:3</a>, the King James Version has "Make sure thy friend" for rahabh, "be boisterous" "beset" the Revised Version (British and American) "importune." The sense is "Force him to pay his debt."<br><br>Surely in English Versions of the Bible is used almost always to qualify an entire phrase, as in <a href="/genesis/28-16.htm">Genesis 28:16</a>, "Surely Yahweh is in this place." In modern English "surely" used in this way suggests that the statement is being argued and is therefore slightly doubtful, but in Elizabethan English the purpose is to exclude all doubt ("beyond question"). With this force the King James Version uses "surely" to translate almost any emphatic form, and the Revised Version (British and American) has conformed to AV's use, and such changes as have been made by the Revised Version (British and American) (<a href="/matthew/26-73.htm">Matthew 26:73</a> <a href="/luke/4-23.htm">Luke 4:23</a> <a href="/revelation/22-20.htm">Revelation 22:20</a>, etc.) are merely to preserve uniformity of rendition. The most common use of "surely" in this sense is to translate a verb when emphasized by its own part. (absolute inf. in Hebrew), as "Thou shalt, surely die" (<a href="/genesis/2-17.htm">Genesis 2:17</a>) for "dying thou shalt die" (compare <a href="/genesis/22-17.htm">Genesis 22:17</a> for the Hebrew construction). In this sense "surely" is sometimes varied by "of a surety" (<a href="/genesis/15-13.htm">Genesis 15:13</a>, etc.) without the slightest difference in meaning (compare <a href="/genesis/9-5.htm">Genesis 9:5</a> and 26:9). In addition "surely" is used occasionally as a simple adverb where modern English would prefer "securely" or "certainly" (compare <a href="/proverbs/10-9.htm">Proverbs 10:9</a> and the King James Version <a href="/luke/1-1.htm">Luke 1:1</a>, "surely believed," the Revised Version (British and American) "fulfilled," the Revised Version margin "fully established").<br><br>Surety, besides its use in "of a surety" appears, in the Old Testament to translate `arabh, "to be surety," and in <a href="/hebrews/7-22.htm">Hebrews 7:22</a> for egguos, "guarantor," "giver of security." Modern English prefers "security," as does even the King James Version in <a href="/acts/17-9.htm">Acts 17:9</a>. "Suretiship" (the American Standard Revised Version "suretyship") in Proverbs 11:15 for taqa`, "to strike (hands)."<br><br>See <a href="../s/strike.htm">STRIKE</a>; <a href="../s/surety.htm">SURETY</a>.<br><br>Burton Scott Easton<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/5039.htm"><span class="l">5039. tekmerion -- a <b>sure</b> sign</span></a> <br><b>...</b> a <b>sure</b> sign.
