- Sahng-jeh-nim Is Released
After Completing a Great Work of Renewal
- 1 A few days later, Gohng-shin was released, but because of things Sahng-jeh-nim had said, the police kept Him alone in the cell for a while longer, thinking He was a lunatic.
- 2 On February 4, the day of Waking Hibernators, when all things begin to sprout, they finally released Him after thirty-eight days of imprisonment.
- 3 Cha Gyung-suk and Ahn Nae-sung brought 120 nyahng to have new clothes made for Sahng-jeh-nim, but He would not allow it.
- 4 When Sahng-jeh-nim recovered what had been confiscated, He gave some of the money and fabric to the policemen. He then went to Go-bu market and gave some to the people there and bought them something to drink.
- 5 He stayed three days in Go-bu and then went to Hwahng Eung-johng’s house in Wa-ryohng Village. Gyung-suk followed.
- 6 Sahng-jeh-nim said, “All those who plot to become emperors will die.
- 7 Even those who just dream of it will die.”
