And now, my son, I trust that I shall have great joy in you,

for blessed is he that endureth to the end.

now, my son, I would not that ye should think

I should not have known these things.

Behold, he is the word of truth and righteousness.

and I would that ye would be diligent and temperate in all things.

and receive you at the last day into his kingdom, to sit down in peace.

now go, my son, and teach the word unto this people.

Be sober.

My son, farewell.
