intet menneske har makt over vinden, så han kan holde den tilbake; heller ikke har nogen makt over dødsdagen, og ingen slipper for å gjøre krigstjeneste. således kan heller ikke ugudelighet berge sin mann.
there is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.
