Σελίδα 223 - HEARKEN to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: Look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, And to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. Look unto Abraham your father, And unto Sarah that bare you: For I called him alone, And blessed him, and increased him.
Σελίδα 230 - Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come Who is this King of glory?
Σελίδα 235 - Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth. Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
