Popularne fragmenty

Strona 151 - Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling-place; and labour, working with our own hands : being reviled, we bless : being persecuted, we suffer it : being defamed, we entreat : we are made as the filth of the earth, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.

Strona 151 - Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one." " Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice J suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep.
Strona 61 - As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death, "so is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, 'Am not I in sport?
