Which of us may abide that everlasting heat?" 15 He that leadeth a godly life - say I - and speaketh the truth; He that abhorreth to do violence and deceit; he that keepeth his hand that he touch no reward; which stoppeth his ears, that he hear no counsel against the innocent; which holdeth down his eyes, that he see none evil. 16 He it is, that shall dwell on high; whose safeguard shall be in the true rock, to him shall be given the right true meat and drink.
