1 “Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine,
Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine,
And doeth them not, and doeth them not,
Shall be likened unto a foolish man,
Which built his house upon the sand.”
“And the rains descended, and the floods came
And the winds blew, the winds blew and beat,
And beat upon that house, and beat upon that house,
And it fell! It fell!
And great was the fall thereof.”

2 “Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine,
Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine,
And doeth them well, and doeth them well,
Shall be likened unto a wise man,
Which built his house upon a rock.”
“And the rains descended, and the floods came
And the winds blew, the winds blew and beat,
And beat upon that house, and beat upon that house,
And it fell not! And it fell not!
For it was founded upon a rock!
For it was founded upon a rock!
