And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.

And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

21 A nd they repented not of their murders, nor of their witchcrafts, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
