because the creatures are subdued to vanity against their will: but for his will which subdueth them in hope.

And he said unto them, "Go ye into all the world, and preach the glad tidings to all creatures:

if ye continue grounded and established in the faith, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, whereof ye have heard, how that it is preached among all creatures, which are under heaven, whereof I, Paul, am made a minister.

Groaneth

Fear came there upon them, and sorrow as upon a woman in her travail.

They have laid it waste: and now that it is waste, it sigheth unto me. Yea, the whole land lieth waste, and no man regardeth it.

A woman when she travaileth hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.

And she was with child and cried, travailing in birth, and pained ready to be delivered.

And all flesh that moved on the earth, both birds, cattle and beasts, perished; with all that crept on the earth, and all men:

lest that the land spew you out when ye have defiled it, as it spewed out the nations that were there before you.

And as long as it lieth void it shall rest, for that it could not rest in your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt therein.

O what a fighting make the cattle? The bullocks are very evil liking, because they have no pasture: and the sheep are famished away.
