17. Or if I bring the sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land, so that I cut off man and beast from it,
18. and these three men should be in it, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they should deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only themselves should be delivered.
19. Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast,
20. and Noah, Daniel, and Job should be in it, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they should deliver neither son nor daughter: they should but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
