"And the delusions of their magic art were put down, and their boasting of wisdom was reproachfully rebuked."
Nel contesto
5And no power of fire could give them light, neither could the bright flames of the stars enlighten that horrible night.
6But there appeared to them a sudden fire, very dreadful: and being struck with the fear of that face, which was not seen, they thought the things which they saw to be worse:
7And the delusions of their magic art were put down, and their boasting of wisdom was reproachfully rebuked.
8For they who promised to drive away fears and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of a fear worthy to be laughed at.
9For though no terrible thing disturbed them: yet being scared with the passing by of beasts, and hissing of serpents, they died for fear: and denying that they saw the air, which could by no means be avoided.
