    He that fights and runs away,
    Will live to fight another day;
    For he that runs may fight again,
    Which he can never do that's slain.
    Deeper to wound she shuns the fight;
    She drops her arms, to gain the field:
    Secures her conquest by her flight:
    And triumphs when she seems to yield.

But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your
children, and will not keep my read more

But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your
children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which
I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship
them:
Then I will cut off Israel out of the land which I have given
them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I
cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword
among all people:
And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it
shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why hath
the Lord done thus unto this land, and to this house?
