1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

⁷⁰ As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:

²⁰ Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

²¹ For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

¹¹ But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

¹² For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
