And he spared not the place where Lot sojourned, but abhorred them for the pride of their word.
10
He had not pity on them, destroying the whole nation that extolled them- selves in their sine.
11
So did he with the six hundred thousand footmen, who were gathered together in the hardness of their heart: and if one had been stiffnecked, it is a wonder if he had escaped unpunished:
12
For mercy and wrath are with him. He is mighty to forgive, and to pour out indignation:
13
According as his mercy is, so his correction judgeth a man according to his works.
14
The sinner shall not escape in his rapines, and the patience of him that sheweth mercy shall not be put off.
15
All mercy shall make a place for every man according to the merit of his works, and according to the wisdom of his sojournment.
16
Say not: I shall be hidden from God. and who shall remember me from on high?
17
In such a multitude I shall not be known: for what is my soul in such an immense creation?
18
Behold the heaven, and the heavens of heavens, the deep, and all the earth, and the things that are in them, shall be moved in his sight,
19
The mountains also, and the hills, end the foundations of the earth: when God shall look upon them, they shall be shaken with trembling.
