IIIA: I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and lack of bread in all your places, [famine] yet you did not return to me," says the LORD. [7] "And I also withheld the rain from you when there were yet three months to the harvest; I would send rain upon one city, and send no rain upon another city; one field would be rained upon, and the field on which it did not rain withered; [8] so two or three cities wandered to one city to drink water, and were not satisfied; yet you did not return to me," says the LORD. [9] "I smote you with blight and mildew; I laid waste your gardens and your vineyards; your fig trees and your olive trees the locust devoured; yet you did not return to me," says the LORD. [10] "I sent among you a pestilence after the manner of Egypt; I slew your young men with the sword; I carried away your horses; and I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils; yet you did not return to me," says the LORD. [11] "I overthrew some of you, as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomor'rah, and you were as a brand plucked out of the burning; yet you did not return to me," says the LORD. [12] "Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel; because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, O Israel!" IVB: The urine is best when the sediment is white, smooth, and consistent during the whole time, until the disease come to a crisis, for it indicates freedom from danger, and an illness of short duration; but if deficient, and if it be sometimes passed clear, and sometimes with a white and smooth sediment, the disease will be more protracted, and not so void of danger. But if the urine be reddish, and the sediment consistent and smooth, the affection, in this case, will be more protracted than the former, but still not fatal. But farinaceous ["mealy"; "flour-like"] sediments in the urine are bad, and still worse are the leafy; the white and thin are very bad, but the furfuraceous ["bran-like"] are still worse than these. Clouds carried about in the urine are good when white, but bad if black. When the urine is yellow and thin, it indicates that the disease is unconcocted; and if it (the disease) should be protracted, there maybe danger lest the patient should not hold out until the urine be concocted. But the most deadly of all kinds of urine are the fetid ["having and offensive smell", watery, black, and thick; in adult men and women the black is of all kinds of urine the worst, but in children, the watery.
