The King James Version Bible

Wisdom of Solomon 17:15-17

  1. Were partly vexed with monstrous apparitions, and partly fainted, their heart failing them: for a sudden fear, and not looked for, came upon them.

  2. So then whosoever there fell down was straitly kept, shut up in a prison without iron bars,

  3. For whether he were husbandman, or shepherd, or a labourer in the field, he was overtaken, and endured that necessity, which could not be avoided: for they were all bound with one chain of darkness.
