7:36 Then said I, Abraham prayed first for the Sodomites, and Moses for the fathers that sinned in the wilderness:
7:37 And Jesus after him for Israel in the time of Achan:
7:38 And Samuel and David for the destruction: and Solomon for them that should come to the sanctuary:
7:39 And Helias for those that received rain; and for the dead, that he might live:
7:40 And Ezechias for the people in the time of Sennacherib: and many for many.
7:41 Even so now, seeing corruption is grown up, and wickedness increased, and the righteous have prayed for the ungodly: wherefore shall it not be so now also?
7:42 He answered me, and said, This present life is not the end where much glory doth abide; therefore have they prayed for the weak.
7:43 But the day of doom shall be the end of this time, and the beginning of the immortality for to come, wherein corruption is past,
7:44 Intemperance is at an end, infidelity is cut off, righteousness is grown, and truth is sprung up.
7:45 Then shall no man be able to save him that is destroyed, nor to oppress him that hath gotten the victory.
