thy flocks and thy servants; behold, is it this that causeth

do this, saith the Lord of Hosts.

of war and depart with a covenant of peace.

and the inhabitants thereof to be drowned. And behold,
that great city Moronihah have I covered with earth, and
the inhabitants thereof... And behold, the city of Gilgal
have I caused to be sunk, and the inhabitants thereof
to be buried up in the depths of the earth; Yea, and the
city of Onihah and the inhabitants thereof, and the city
of Mocum and the inhabitants thereof, and the city of
Jerusalem and the inhabitants thereof; and waters have
I caused to come up in the stead thereof... And behold,
the city of Gadiandi, and the city of Gadiomnah, and the
city of Jacob, and the city of Gimgimno, all these have
I caused to be sunk, and made hills and valleys in the
places thereof; and the inhabitants thereof have I buried
(alive) up in the depths of the earth... And behold, that

land, and upon this people... Behold, I am Jesus Christ
the Son of God. I created the heavens and the earth, and
all things that in them are. I was with the Father from
the beginning. I am in the Father, and the Father in me;
and in me hath the Father glorified his name.
