Once I have spoken, but I will not answer; yea, twice, but I will go no further.
And the king of Israel sent to the place of which the man of God spoke to him and warned him. And he protected himself there not once and not twice.
For in one way God may speak, and in a second, but one does not regard it.
Whom, though I were being righteous, I could not answer Him; I seek mercy for my judgment.
If he would delight to argue with Him, he cannot answer Him one of a thousand.
God has spoken once; twice I have heard this, that strength belongs to God;
But we know that as many things as the law says, it says to the ones within the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world be accountable to God.
