Great
is the awesomeness of the ordaining Lord, for this world will pass
away; but he made stable the solid foundations, the earth's surfaces
and the sky above. Foolish is he who does not fear his Lord: death
will come upon him unpremeditated. Blessed is he who lives in humility:
to him will come grace from the heavens. The ordaining Lord will make
stable his heart, because he trusts in his might. A man must steer
a wilful heart and keep it fixed upon stable points; and, worthy of
men's trust and pure in his ways, each man must conduct himself with
moderation through happiness and through adversity, in joy and in
affliction, even if the Lord wills to prove him, permeated by fire,
or assay, smelted in the flame, the friend he has made. Fate is stronger,
the ordaining Lord mightier, than the mind of any man. |

Let
us consider where we may have a home, and then think how we may get
there and how we may henceforth also strive so that we might arrive
in everlasting blessedness, where there is life originating in the
Lord's love, and hope, in the heavens. |

Thanks
be to the Holy One, that he has made us worthy, the Prince of glory,
everlasting Lord, through all time. Amen. |
