And Jehovah, the God of their fathers, sent to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending, because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling-place:
Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their back, and slew thy prophets that testified against them to turn them again unto thee, and they wrought great provocations.
Doth not wisdom cry, And understanding put forth her voice?
Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them shall ye kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city:
And wisdom is justified of all her children.
but unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.
