Sivu 206 - Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly ; and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
Sivu 282 - I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron...
Sivu 543 - Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
