6:5 Horribly and speedily shall he come upon you: for a sharp judgment shall be to them that be in high places.

6:7 For he which is Lord over all shall fear no man’s person, neither shall he stand in awe of any man’s greatness: for he hath made the small and great, and careth for all alike.
6:8 But a sore trial shall come upon the mighty.
