    9 I have knowledge of your troubles and how poor you are (but you have true wealth), and the evil words of those who say they are Jews, and are not, but are a Synagogue of Satan.

    10 Have no fear of the things which you will have to undergo: see, the Evil One will send some of you into prison, so that you may be put to the test; and you will have great trouble for ten days. Be true till death, and I will give you the crown of life.

    21 And I gave her time for a change of heart, but she has no mind to give up her unclean ways.

    22 See, I will put her into a bed, and those who make themselves unclean with her, into great trouble, if they go on with her works.
