that the wrath of God is poured out upon the mother of harlots,
which is the great and abominable church of all the earth,

the things which were written were plain and pure, and most precious
and easy to the understanding of all men.

to them hath he shown all things,

in the own due time of the Lord,
unto the house of Israel.
