The Lord Jehovah hath sworn by his holiness, that, lo, the days shall come upon you, that they shall take you away with hooks, and your residue with fish-hooks.
But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, for that God chose you as firstfruits unto salvation in sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
God is not a man, that he should lie, Neither the son of man, that he should repent: Hath he said, and will he not do it? Or hath he spoken, and will he not make it good?
