62 The fire also being sent from above to consume mountains and woods, doth as it is commanded. But these neither in shew, nor in power are like to any one of them.
63 Wherefore it is neither to be thought, nor to be said, that they are gods: since they are neither able to judge causes, nor to do any good to men.
64 Knowing therefore that they are not gods, fear them not.
65 For neither can they curse kings, nor bless them.
66 Neither do they shew signs in the heaven to the nations, nor shine as the sun, nor give light as the moon.
67 Beasts are better than they, which can fly under a covert, and help themselves.
68 Therefore there is no manner of appearance that they are gods: so fear them not.
