³⁰But if the LORD ^†make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them vp, with all that appertaine vnto them, and they go downe quicke into the pit: then ye shall vnderstand that these men haue prouoked the LORD.

³¹¶ ^*And it came to passe as he had made an ende of speaking all these words, that the ground claue asunder that was vnder them:
