8  But behold, the righteous that hearken unto the words of the prophets, and destroy them not, but look forward unto Christ with steadfastness for the signs which are given, notwithstanding all persecution—behold, they are they which shall ^cnot perish.

  13  O all ye that are spared because ye were more righteous than they, will ye not now return unto me, and repent of your sins, and be converted, that I may heal you?

  31  Behold, I would that ye should understand; for I mean them who are ^anow alive of this generation; and none of them are lost; and in them I have fulness of joy.
