9  And now, in your epistle you have censured me, but it mattereth not; I am not angry, but do rejoice in the greatness of your heart. I, Pahoran, do not seek for power, save only to retain my judgment-seat that I may preserve the rights and the liberty of my people. My soul standeth fast in that liberty in the which God hath made us ^cfree.

  86  Abide ye in the liberty wherewith ye are made ^bfree; entangle not yourselves in sin, but let your hands be clean, until the Lord comes.
