And as soon as we had heard these things, our hearts did faint. And there remained no more courage in any man for fear of your coming. For the LORD your God; he is the God in heaven above, and on the earth beneath.

And that ye shall save alive, both my father and my mother, my brethren and my sisters, and all that pertain unto them. And that ye shall deliver our souls from death."
