They have broken the eggs of asps and have woven the webs of spiders. He that shall eat of their eggs shall die: and that which is brought out shall be hatched into a basilisk.
They shall not hurt, nor shall they kill in all my holy mountain: for the earth is filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as the covering waters of the sea.
Rejoice not thou, whole Philistia, that the rod of him that struck thee is broken in pieces: for out of the root of the serpent shall come forth a basilisk, and his seed shall swallow the bird.
