For it shall come to pass in that day

that the churches which are built up, and not unto the Lord,

Eat, drink, and be merry;

nevertheless, fear God —

yea, lie a little,

take the advantage of one because of his words,

dig a pit for thy neighbor;

there is no harm in this;

and do all these things, for tomorrow we die;

and if it so be that we are guilty,

God will beat us with a few stripes,

and at last we shall be saved in the kingdom of God.

all is well —

I will give unto the children of men line upon line, precept upon precept,

here a little and there a little;

and lend an ear unto my counsel,

for they shall learn wisdom;

for unto him that receiveth I will give more;

and from them that shall say, We have enough,

from them shall be taken away even that which they have.

A Bible! A Bible! We have got a Bible,

save it be with them that repent

and believe in his Son, who is the Holy One of Israel.
