72 "And now if ye do not this, behold, ye are in our hands, And I will command my men that they shall fall upon you and inflict the wounds of death in your bodies, that ye may become extinct;

73 And then we will see who shall have power over this people, Yea, we will see who shall be brought into bondage."
