And when the flood arose, the streame beat vehemently vpon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded vpon a rocke. 49But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house vpon the earth: against which the streame did beate vehemently, and immediatly it fell, and the ruine of that house was great.
