33Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

3How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;

15Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?

6Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.

12Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.

21Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

5And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.

26Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
