既而後悔、以所釋任意自由之奴婢、復使之歸、強之仍為奴婢、

But afterward they changed their minds and took back the slaves they had freed and enslaved them again.

But later they changed their minds. They took back the people they had set free. They made them slaves again.

But afterward they turned around and took back the male and female slaves they had set free, and brought them into subjection as slaves.

but later they changed their minds. They took back the men and women they had freed, forcing them to be slaves again.

Afterward, however, they changed their minds and took back their male and female slaves they had let go free and forced them to become slaves again.

But afterward they turned around and took back the male servants and the female servants whom they had set free, and brought them into subjection as male servants and as female servants.

But afterward they changed their minds and made the male and female slaves return, whom they had set free, and brought them into subjection as male and female slaves.

but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.

倘若他們既因認識我們的主、救主耶穌基督、而逃脫了世俗的染污，又在其中被纏住被制勝着，那麼他們末後的景況就比先前的更壞了。他們認識了正義之路以後，若從所傳授給他們的聖誡上退轉下去，那倒不如沒有認識過好啊。『狗轉過身來，喫自己所嘔吐的』；『豬洗了身，又去污泥裏打滾！』這真實的俗語所說的、已在這些人身上得證實了。

愚頑人將他的愚妄事行了又行，正如狗轉過來、喫自己所嘔吐的。

『污靈從人裏面出來，走遍無水之地，尋求安歇，卻尋不着。便說：「我要回到我所由出的屋裏去」。他來到，見無人居住，打掃乾淨，修飾齊整。便去，另外帶了七個比自己更邪惡的靈一同來，進去，住在那裏。那人末後的景況就比先前的更壞了。這邪惡的世代也必如此。』

他們轉向於巴力；如同乖張的弓；他們的首領必因其舌頭之傲氣而倒斃於刀下：這在埃及地必成了人們嗤笑的對象。

剪除那些退轉而不跟從永恆主的，那些不尋求永恆主、不求問他的。』

這雷轟和冰雹已經夠了：懇求永恆主吧！我就讓你們走，不再叫你們住在這裏。』

法老把摩西、亞倫召了來，說：『你們懇求永恆主叫青蛙離開我和我人民，我就讓你們人民走、去獻祭給永恆主。』

壞事的定案不立刻施刑罰，故此人類的心敢於作壞事。

人若遇見仇敵，哪肯送他好好上路呢？願永恆主因你今天向我所行的以福報你。

法老見雨跟冰雹和雷都停止了，就越發犯罪，心又固執，他和他的臣僕都這樣固執。法老的心頑強，不讓以色列人走，正如永恆主藉着摩西所說的。

至於那偏行彎曲路的人、願永恆主將他們跟作孽的人一起帶走。願平安興隆歸於以色列。

掃羅聽了約拿單的話，就指着永活的永恆主來起誓，說：『他決不會被殺死的。』約拿單把大衛叫來；約拿單將這一切事告訴他；約拿單帶他去見掃羅；他就照常侍立在掃羅面前。此後又有戰事；大衛出去、和非利士人交戰，大大擊敗他們；他們就在他面前逃跑。從永恆主那裏來的惡靈臨到掃羅身上；（掃羅坐在屋裏，手裏拿着矛）大衛則手彈絃琴。掃羅想法子要用矛刺透大衛，給釘在牆上；大衛卻從掃羅面前溜走；掃羅把矛擊進牆內；大衛就逃走躲避了。那一夜掃羅打發差役到大衛的住宅去窺伺他，要在第二天早晨殺死他。大衛的妻子米甲對大衛說：『你今夜若不逃命，明日就會被殺死。』

每逢他殺了他們的時候，他們總求問他，總回心轉意、迫切切地尋求上帝。他們也追念着上帝他們的磐石，至高者上帝、那贖回他們的。其實他們只是用口詐騙着他，用舌頭對他說謊罷了。

他口中的話是奸惡和詭詐；他跟明智和善行已經斷絕。

我也必將猶大王西底家和眾首領交在他們的仇敵手中、和那些尋索他們性命的人手中，以及那些暫時離開你們而退上去的巴比倫王軍隊手中。

掃羅說：『我有罪了；我兒大衛，你回來吧；今天你既看我的性命為寶貝，我再也不加害於你了。看哪，我幹了糊塗事了；我大錯而特錯了。』

法老就會說到以色列人的事、說：「以色列人在此地繞迷了；曠野把他們困住了。」我要使法老的心頑強，他就會追趕眾民，我便可以在法老和他的全軍身上得到榮耀，埃及人就知道我乃是永恆主。』於是以色列人就這樣行。有人告訴埃及王說：『以色列民逃走了。』法老和他臣僕對以色列民的心就變了；他們說：『我們讓以色列人走、不再服事我們，我們作了這事甚麼緣故呢？』法老就套上車輛，帶着兵丁一同去，並帶着六百輛特選的車、和埃及所有的車，都有軍官在車上。永恆主使埃及王法老的心頑強，法老就追趕以色列人，以色列人卻以高舉的手出來了。埃及人追趕他們；法老一切的馬匹、車輛、和他的馬兵跟軍隊、就在海邊上靠近比哈希錄、巴力洗分前面、他們紮營的地方，趕上了他們。

法老見災禍平息了，心又固執起來，不聽摩西、亞倫，正如永恆主所說的。

法老的軍隊已經從埃及出來；那圍困耶路撒冷的迦勒底人聽見了這風聲，就拔營離開耶路撒冷而去。

以法蓮哪，我可怎樣評斷你呢？猶大啊，我可怎樣評定你呢？你們的堅貞就如早晨的雲霧，又如早散的朝露。

現在求你，只這一次饒恕我的罪，請你懇求永恆主你們的上帝，只要使我脫離這一次的死亡就好啦。摩西就從法老面前出來，去懇求永恆主。永恆主轉了極強勁的西風，把蝗蟲颳了起來，吹進蘆葦海；在埃及四境、連一個蝗蟲也沒有剩下。但是永恆主使法老的心頑強，不讓以色列人走。

還是你輕看他慈惠寬容與恆忍之豐富，不知道上帝的慈惠正領着你悔改麼？然而你竟依順你的剛愎和不悔改的心、為自己積聚着上帝的義怒、於上帝義怒的日子，就是上帝公義的刑罰顯示出來的日子；
