Therefore, lift up your heads, and rejoice, and put your trust in God,

in that God who was the God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob;

and caused that they should walk through the Red Sea on dry ground,

and fed them with manna that they might not perish in the wilderness;

and many more things did he do for them.

for they will not seek wisdom,

neither do they desire that she should rule over them!
