"And which was wonderful, in water, which extinguisheth all things, the fire had more force: for the world fighteth for the just."
Nel contesto
15But it is impossible to escape thy hand.
16For the wicked that denied to know thee, were scourged by the strength of thy arm, being persecuted by strange waters, and hail, and rain, and consumed by fire.
17And which was wonderful, in water, which extinguisheth all things, the fire had more force: for the world fighteth for the just.
18For at one time, the fire was mitigated, that the beasts which were sent against the wicked might not be burned, but that they might see and perceive that they were persecuted by the judgment of God.
19And at another time the fire, above its own power, burned in the midst of water, to destroy the fruits of a wicked land.
