Word of the Day: Thee and Thou

An older form of you, Thee and Thou appear throughout the King James Bible. 

In simplest terms, Thee is the subject of a sentence, whereas Thou is used in conjunction with an action, as in Isaiah 41:10;

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Thee rhymes with "sea", "bee", and "tree".
Thou rhymes with "now", "cow", and "chow"
