Lucas 1:71

71 Salvación de nuestros enemigos, y de mano de todos los que nos aborrecieron

Luke 1:71

That we should be saved from our enemies

and from the hand of all that hate us:
which is only an illustration of the former sentence, or a repetition of it in other words; and designs the same as before.
