- "For¹ though¹ thou washª° thee with nitre,ª and take thee muchª° soap,ª [yet] thine iniquityª is markedª° beforeª me, saithª° the Lordª GOD.ª" {Jer 2:22} + "In vainª have I smittenª°¹ your children;ª they receivedª° no¹ correction:ª your own swordª hath devouredª° your prophets,ª like a destroyingª° lion.ª" {Jer 2:30} + "O LORD,ª [are] not¹ thine eyesª upon the truth?ª thou hast strickenª° them, but they have not¹ grieved;ª° thou hast consumedª° them, [but] they have refusedª° to receiveª° correction:ª they have made their facesª harderª° than a rock;ª¹ they have refusedª° to return.ª°" {Jer 5:3} + "The bellowsª are burned,ª° the leadª is consumedª° of the fire;ª²¹ the founderª° meltethª° in vain:ª for the wickedª are not¹ plucked away.ª° ... Reprobateª° silverª shall [men] callª° them, because¹ the LORDª hath rejectedª° them." {Jer 6:29-30} + "The heartª [is] deceitfulª above all¹¹ [things], and desperately wicked:ª° who¹ can knowª° it?" {Jer 17:9} + "Though¹ thou shouldest brayª°¹ a foolª in a mortarª amongª wheatª with a pestle,ª [yet] will not¹ his foolishnessª departª° from¹¹ him." {Prv 27:22} + "Why¹¹ should ye be strickenª° any more?¹ ye will revoltª more and more:ª° the whole¹ headª is sick,ª and the whole¹ heartª faint.ª" {Isa 1:5} + "Andª againª I sayª° unto you,ª It isª° easierª for a camelª to goª° throughª the eyeª of a needle,ª thanª for a rich manª to enterª° intoª the¹ kingdomª of God.ª ... Andª Jesusª saidª° unto them,ª Verilyª I sayª° unto you,ª Thatª yeª which² have followedª° me,ª inª the¹ regenerationª whenª the¹ Sonª of manª shall sitª° inª the throneª of his²¹ glory,ª yeª alsoª shall sitª° uponª twelveª thrones,ª judgingª° the¹ twelveª tribesª of Israel.ª" {Mtt 19:24-28}
