Religion
Numbers 14:10: "Stone the blasphemers vile," they cry
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
"Stone the blasphemers vile," they cry,
"Who urge us the good land to win.
And tell us, we may scale the sky,
And talk of living without sin I"
They say, sin never need prevail.
All sin ye may with ease subdue:
They contradict their fellows' tale.
And dare avouch that God is true.
