And as the Lord God liveth that brought Israel up out of the land of Egypt,

after they had been bitten by the poisonous serpents,

if they would cast their eyes unto the serpent which he did raise up before them,

and also gave him power that he should smite the rock

and the water should come forth;

save it be this Jesus Christ, of which I have spoken,

whereby man can be saved.

for by denying him ye also deny the prophets and the law.

even as it were out of the ground;

and their speech shall whisper out of the dust.

until he bindeth them with his strong cords forever.
