1 Pedro 4

1 Pedro 4:8

Therefore I shall go for myself to the place of refuge from the face of the fury of the Lord, to that zeal of piety sweetly burning and efficaciously atoning. Does not charity atone? And powerfully so. I have read that it covers a multitude of sins. But I say: Is it not fit and sufficient for casting down and humbling every exaltation of the eyes and of the heart? Most especially: for it is not exalted, it is not puffed up. — Sermons on the Song of Songs, Sermon 69
