Mace(i)
3 whatever you have utter'd in the dark, shall be brought to light: and what you have whisper'd in a closet, shall be proclaim'd upon the house top.
4 As for you, my friends, be not afraid of those, who can kill the body, and after that can effect nothing more.
5 but I will inform you whom you should fear: fear him, who after he has kill'd, has power to precipitate into hell; yes, I advise you, fear him.
6 are not five sparrows sold for two pence? however the divine providence extends to each of them.
7 nay, the very hairs of your head can't fall without being number'd: be not then afraid; there is no comparison between you and sparrows.
8 moreover I declare unto you, whoever shall acknowledge me before men, him shall the son of man also own before the angels of God.
9 but whoever shall renounce me before men, he shall be renounc'd before the angels of God.
