Henceforth, warns John the Baptist, we should not be as the scribes and Pharisees: "But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: and think not to say within yourselves, we have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham." Matt. 3:7-9.
¿Quién os enseñó a huir de la ira venidera? Haced, pues, frutos dignos de arrepentimiento, y no penséis decir dentro de vosotros mismos: A Abraham tenemos por padre; porque yo os digo que Dios puede levantar hijos a Abraham aun de estas piedras . Mateo 3:7-9.
