7
For he who turned toward it was saved, not by what he saw, but by thee, the Savior of all.
8
And by this also thou didst convince our enemies that it is thou who deliverest from every evil.
9
For they were killed by the bites of locusts and flies, and no healing was found for them, because they deserved to be punished by such things;
10

11
To remind them of thy oracles they were bitten, and then were quickly delivered, lest they should fall into deep forgetfulness and become unresponsive to thy kindness.
