Jesus answered - Are there not, twelve hours, in the day? If one walk in the day, he doth no stumble, because, the light of this world, he seeth; But, if one walk in the night, he stumbleth, because, the light, is not in him.
Jesus, therefore, said unto them - Yet a little while, the light, is, among you: Walk, while ye have, the light, lest, darkness, on you should lay hold; and, he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he drifteth. While, the light, ye have, believe on the light, that, sons of light, ye may become. These things, spake Jesus, - and, departing, was hid from them.

But what saith unto him the response? I have left for myself seven thousand men, who, indeed, have not bowed a knee unto Baal. Thus, then, in the present season also, a remnant, by way of an election of favour, hath come into being. If, however, by favour, no longer of works; else, favour, no longer proveth to be favour! What then? That which Israel seeketh after, the same, it hath not obtained: - the election, however, have obtained it, and, the rest, have been hardened; - Even as it is written - God hath given unto them a spirit of stupor, - eyes not to see, and ears not to hear, - until this very day; And, David, saith - Let their table be turned into a snare, and into gin, and into a trap, and into a recompense unto them, Darkened be their eyes, not to see, and, their back, do thou continually bow down. I say then - Did they stumble in order that they might fall? Far be it! But, by their fall, salvation hath come unto the nations, to the end of provoking them to jealousy.

For, not like our Rock, is their rock, Our enemies themselves, being judges; For of the vine of Sodom, is their vine, And of the vineyards of Gomorrah, - Their grapes, are grapes of gall, Clusters of bitter things, are theirs: The poison of large serpents, is their wine, - Yea the fierce venom of asps. read more.
Is not, that, stored up with me, - Sealed up amongst my treasures; Unto the days of vengeance and requital: Unto the time their foot shall totter? For, near, is the day of their fate, And their destiny speedeth on.
