Religion
2 Kings 6:31: By all who neither love nor fear
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
By all who neither love nor fear
Our God, the righteous are abhorr'd,
As authors of their evils here,
They hate the servants of the Lord:
"Away with them," the Avorld exclaim,
"The Christians to the lions cast!"
The stream is troubled by the lamb.
And must be so, while time shall last.
