1 No man, O my God, changeth thy holy place; (ODE) 2 And it is not (possible) that he should change it and put it in another place: because he hath no power over it: (ODE) 3 For thy sanctuary thou hast designed before thou didst make (other) places: (ODE) 4 That which is the older shall not be altered by those that are younger than itself. (ODE) 5 Thou has given thy heart, O Lord, to thy believers: never wilt thou fail, nor be without fruits: (ODE) 6 For one hour of thy Faith is more precious than all days and years. (ODE) 7 For who is there that shall put on thy grace, and be hurt? (ODE) 8 For thy seal is known: and thy creatures know it: and thy (heavenly) hosts possess it: and the elect archangels are clad with it. (ODE) 9 Thou hast given us thy fellowship: it was not that thou wast in need of us: but that we are in need of thee: (ODE) 10 Distill thy dews upon us and open thy rich fountains that pour forth to us milk and honey: (ODE) 11 For there is no repentance with thee that thou shouldest repent of anything that thou hast promised: (ODE) 12 And the end was revealed before thee: for what thou gavest, thou gavest freely: (ODE) 13 So that thou mayest, not draw them back and take them again: (ODE) 14 For all was revealed before thee as God, and ordered from the beginning before thee: and thou, O God, hast made all things. Hallelujah. (ODE)
