Behold, we have not come out to battle against you

that we might shed your blood for power;

yea, and ye are angry with us because of our religion.

behold, ye are in our hands,

and I will command my men that they shall fall upon you,

and inflict the wounds of death in your bodies,

that ye may become extinct;

and then we will see who shall have power over this people;

yea, we will see who shall be brought into bondage.
