²⁹ Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?

²⁶ That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

⁵ And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,

²³ Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
