For we know him who said, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.” ...

For land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God. But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned.
