“The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ

And He said unto me

always remaining motionless

The one who knows God will follow the Lord's footsteps

How great is God

and in place of a bridal chamber prepares a sepulcher:

humbleness will lead him into Heaven

mountain of God

Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and fornicators and murderers and idolaters

do not stop until the very strength of their bones is spent

in order to hook us in with sin

and choose rather to die than to deny their faith in Christ
