No, I don't recall it. There is nothing in my Bible about God making red marks on my skin. This isn't even in KJV. What is it, Wyclif? What do you mean? Please use English or Hebrew, not some obsolete form of English which I don't understand.
what are these red marks? do you by chance mean something like welts? and
i cant help what you dont understand.
but, re the notion that God brings trouble into the world- take a look at
the following brief examples:
Is 24:1,
Is 45:7 (where God says- I create evil) (hmmmmmm.....)
Jer 13:16
Jer 18:11
etc....
Im sure, Peter, if you try you may even be able to find some of these sorts
of texts on your own- unless your welts hinder you.
