I need a list of bible verses with modern day 'swear words' in them. For example; ***, dam etc.
Thank you for your help.

***
"If thou see the *** of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, thou shalt forbear to leave him, thou shalt surely release [it] with him."
Exodus 23:5
"Thou shalt not see thy brother's *** or his ox fallen down by the way, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again."
Deuteronomy 22:4
A woman who has been bent over for 18 years comes to Jesus and is healed on the Sabbath. The ruler of synagogue objects. "But the Lord answered him, and said, Ye hypocrites, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his *** from the stall, and lead him away to watering? And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo, [these] eighteen years, to have been loosed from this bond on the day of the sabbath?"
Luke 13:11-16
"And he said unto them, Which of you shall have an *** or an ox fallen into a well, and will not straightway draw him up on a sabbath day? And they could not answer again unto these things."
Luke 1

Swear word?...***?... meaning a donkey?.. We still use that term to mean the same thing... It's NOT a swear word... Jim

Genesis 12:16, 22:3, 22:5, 24:35, 30:43, 32:5, 32:15, 34:28, 42:26, 42:27 (I think this one is very much what you are looking for...can be taken way out of context), 43:18, 43:24, 44:3, 44:13, 45:23, 47:17, 49:11, 49:14 (another good one).
Admittedly, they are all "***". That's in the book of Genesis. There are many more. Go to bible.com and go to Bible Resources -> Bible Search. Click on Keyword finder and go to town...

I'm don't think the verses that you list can really be described as profanity. The word, in the verbage of the time, was a common term for a donkey, and the verses are specifically talking about actual donkeys, not calling people @sses.
The only verse that springs to mind is 2 Peter 2:16.
15 "Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;"
16 "But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb *** speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet. "
Peter actually calls the guy a dumb@ss. Classic.

See Acts 9:5 and Isaiah 36:12 in the King James Version.
Other than that, I got nothin'.
Peace.

There may be in the Old Testament, but no such thing in the New Testament. Jesus came and nailed the rules and regulations of the old testament to the cross, and gave us the two best commandments. 1. Love God the Father with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. 2. Love your neighbor as yourself. Notice that both are about LOVE. There is no law demanding that you do wear God's word around your neck, and no law commanding you don't.

@$$ is another word for a donkey and a mule. It even said Jesus rode an @$$ through the streets on palm sunday. Back in those day they didn't call then donkeys @$$ was common and unusally used to refer to donkeys.

Duh these r not swear words they r old English words quite decent to speak. Such as u should stop making an A*S*S* out of ur self with these silly questions. An *** is a young donkey. That's where jackass comes from.

the word *** you refer to is not a cuss word, it is the name of an animal. A donkey to be exact.\
Try harder the bible does not cuss.

Read the verses cited by the other respondents and then read the entire Bible. It is definitely not a gentle book. Lots of sex, murder, intrigue, etc.
Definitely would get an "R" rating if they ever made a movie.
