Isaiah 33:1
|
|
Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not
spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee!
when thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; and when thou shalt make
an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee. |

He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly;

from seeing evil; |

any of the cords thereof be broken. |
