12. For it was neither herb, nor mollifying plaster that healed them, but thy word, O Lord, which healeth all things.
13. For it is thou, O Lord, that hast power of life and death, and leadest down to the gates of death, and bringest back again:
14. A man indeed killeth through malice, and when the spirit is gone forth, it shall not return, neither shall he call back the soul that is received:
15. But it is impossible to escape thy hand.
16. For the wicked that denied to know thee, were scourged by the strength of thy arm, being persecuted by strange waters, and hail, and rain, and consumed by fire.
