"For they who promised to drive away fears and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of a fear worthy to be laughed at."
W kontekście
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.
10For whereas wickedness is fearful, it beareth witness of its condemnation: for a troubled conscience always forecasteth grievous things.
