"The word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart" (4:12).
"Sapagka’t ang salita ng Dios ay buhay, at mabisa, at matalas kaysa alin mang tabak na may dalawang talim, at bumabaon hanggang sa paghihiwalay ng kaluluwa at espiritu, ng mga kasukasuan at ng utak, at madaling kumilala ng mga pagiisip at mga haka ng puso"(4:12).
