Ler em portuguêsCompare PT / EN

And I said to the Angel: "Why hast thou brought me up here now, because I cannot now see, for I am already grown weak, and my spirit departeth from me?"

2And he said to me: "Remain by me; fear not!

3And He whom thou seest come straight towards us with great voice of holiness — that is the Eternal One who loveth thee; but Himself thou canst not see.

4But let not thy spirit grow faint [on account of the loud crying], for I am with thee, strengthening thee.
