Make haste, my beloved, and be thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the mountains of spices. I will most gladly do what thou commandest, O my Saviour; but, that I may perform it accordingly, be thou, which art according to thy bodily presence in the highest heavens, ever present with me by the spirit, and hasten thy glorious coming to my full redemption. And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He shall be a rock of sure defence, to those that fear him; but a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, to those, that distrust and disobey him, even of both the houses of Judah and Ephraim; and for a snare, to those, that are godless and rebellious, even in Jerusalem itself. Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. Give full assurance to my people of the certainty of this prophecy, and seal it up as a law that shall not be reversed.
