Syriac Apocalypse

Ler em portuguêsCompare PT / EN

And I prayed and said: 'O LORD, my Lord, Thou dost always enlighten those who are led by understanding.

2Thy law is life, and Thy wisdom is right guidance.

3Make known to me therefore the interpretation of this vision.

4For Thou knowest that my soul hath always walked in Thy law, and from my (earliest) days I departed not from Thy wisdom.'
