Hebrews 4:12
Douay-Rheims
For the word of God is living and effectual, and more piercing than any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the spirit, of the joints also and the marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Augustine of Hippo
He did not come "to bring peace on earth … but a sword," and Scripture calls the Word of God a "two-edged sword" because of the two Testaments.
