They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.

And hast thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? therefore it shall be, that what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king's house, thou shalt tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.

For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.

Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead? / And why stand we in jeopardy every hour? / I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; / The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
