6:18
Now , thought Christian , what shall I do ? And ever and anon the flame and smoke would come out in such abundance , with sparks and hideous noises , -LRB- things that cared not for Christian 's sword , as did Apollyon before -RRB- , that he was forced to put up his sword , and betake himself to another weapon called All-prayer . -LSB- Eph . 6:18 -RSB- So he cried in my hearing , `` O Lord , I beseech thee , deliver my soul ! '' -LSB- Ps . 116:4 -RSB- Thus he went on a great while , yet still the flames would be reaching towards him . Also he heard doleful voices , and rushings to and fro , so that sometimes he thought he should be torn in pieces , or trodden down like mire in the streets .
