33
Yet those who received it perished, because they did not keep what had been sown in them.
34
And behold, it is the rule that, when the ground has received seed, or the sea a ship, or any dish food or drink, and when it happens that what was sown or what was launched or what was put in is destroyed,
35
they are destroyed, but the things that held them remain; yet with us it has not been so.
36
For we who have received the law and sinned will perish, as well as our heart which received it;
37
the law, however, does not perish but remains in its glory."
