who have gone forth out of captivity,

and have been lifted up by the power of God

above all other nations, upon the face of the land

which is choice above all other lands,

which is the land that the Lord God hath covenanted with thy father

that his seed should have for the land of their inheritance;

which are among thy brethren.

behold, these things shall be hid up, to come forth unto the Gentiles,

by the gift and power of the Lamb.

which shall be established by the mouth of the Lamb;

wherefore they both shall be established in one;

for there is one God and one Shepherd over all the earth.
