Exodus 1:17

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.

fear not those who can only kill the body, but cannot hurt the soul: rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

but I will inform you whom you should fear: fear him, who after he has kill'd, has power to precipitate into hell; yes, I advise you, fear him.

but Peter and John made answer, do you yourselves judge, whether it be right in the sight of God, to obey you rather than God.

then Peter and the other apostles made answer, we ought to obey God rather than men.
