Pàgina 308 - And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
Pàgina 317 - For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days : for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
Pàgina 314 - Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. For behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck. Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
Pàgina 307 - For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground : he hath no form nor comeliness ; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
Pàgina 321 - Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, that ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

Pàgina 297 - And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen ; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
Pàgina 317 - And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. 21 Then let them which are in Judea, flee to the mountains ; and let them which are in the midst of it, depart out; and let not them that are in the countries, enter thereinto.
Pàgina 115 - ... all be made alive again, that Chrift will come, by the appointment of God his father, to judge the quick and the dead, and to give to every man according to his works. Now the firm belief of thefe important truths (concerning which there are great doubts and difficulties on the light of nature, but none at all upon the fuppofition of the truth of chriftianity) cannot fail to elevate the fentiments, and ennoble the nature of man.
