Chapter XCVIII, Verse 4

🇪🇸🇷🇺🇮🇳🇨🇳

Original Text

I have sworn unto you, ye sinners, as a mountain has not become a slave, And a hill does not become the handmaid of a woman, Even so sin has not been sent upon the earth, But man of himself has created it, And under a great curse shall they fall who commit it.

Simple English

I have made this promise to you, sinners: just as a mountain cannot become a slave or a hill cannot become a servant to a woman, so too sin was not forced upon the earth. Instead, people themselves have created it. Those who commit sin will fall under a great curse.
