6.
1
As the hand moves over the harp, and the strings speak.
|
|
|
|
6.
2
So speaks in my members the Spirit of the Lord, and I speak by His love.
|
|
|
|
6.
3
For it destroys what is foreign, and everything that is bitter:
|
|
|
|
6.
4
For thus it was from the beginning and will be to the end, that nothing should be His adversary, and nothing should stand up against Him.
|
|
|
|
6.
5
The Lord has multiplied the knowledge of Himself, and is zealous that these things should be known, which by His grace have been given to us.
|
|
|
|
6.
6
And the praise of His name He gave us: our spirits praise His holy Spirit.
|
|
|
|
6.
7
For there went forth a stream and became a river great and broad;
|
|
|
|
6.
8
For it flooded and broke up everything and it brought (water) to the Temple:
|
|
|
|
6.
9
And the restrainers of the children of men were not able to restrain it, nor the arts of those whose business it is to restrain waters;
|
|
|
|
6.
10
For it spread over the face of the whole earth, and filled everything: and all the thirsty upon earth were given to drink of it;
|
|
|
|
6.
11
And thirst was relieved and quenched: for from the Most High the draught was given.
|
|
|
|
6.
12
Blessed then are the ministers of that draught who are entrusted with that water of His:
|
|
|
|
6.
13
They have assuaged the dry lips, and the will that had fainted they have raised up;
|
|
|
|
6.
14
And souls that were near departing they have caught back from death:
|
|
|
|
6.
15
And limbs that had fallen they straightened and set up:
|
|
|
|
6.
16
They gave strength for their feebleness and light to their eyes:
|
|
|
|
6.
17
For everyone knew them in the Lord, and they lived by the water of life for ever. Hallelujah.
