Colossians 3:25 But he that does wrong shall receive for the wrong which he has done: and there is no respect of persons. As you stood some stormy day upon a sea cliff, and marked the giant billow rise from the deep to rush on with foaming crest, and throw itself thundering on the trembling shore, did you ever fancy that you could stay its course, and hurl it back into the depths of the ocean? Did you ever stand beneath the leaden, lowering cloud, and mark the lightning's leap as it shot and flashed, dazzling athwart the gloom, and think that you could grasp the bolt, and change its path? Still more vain and foolish his thought, who fancies that he can arrest or turn aside the purpose of God. (T. Guthrie, D. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.WEB: But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality. |
