أَسَاس in a sentence

From a fully vowelled text

لِئَلاَّ يَضَعَ الأَسَاسَ وَلاَ يَقْدِرَ أَنْ يُكَمِّلَ، فَيَبْتَدِئَ جَمِيعُ النَّاظِرِينَ يَهْزَأُونَ بِهِ،Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,Luke 14:29, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَالثُّلْثُ فِي بَيْتِ الْمَلِكِ، وَالثُّلْثُ فِي بَابِ الأَسَاسِ، وَجَمِيعُ الشَّعْبِ فِي دِيَارِ بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ.And a third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the LORD.2 Chronicles 23:5, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَلكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُ يَبْنِي عَلَى هذَا الأَسَاسِ: ذَهَبًا، فِضَّةً، حِجَارَةً كَرِيمَةً، خَشَبًا، عُشْبًا، قَشًّا،Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;1 Corinthians 3:12, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
