But, said he, notwithstanding our afflictions,

we have obtained a land of promise,

a land which is choice above all other lands;

a land which the Lord God hath covenanted with me

should be a land for the inheritance of my seed.

Yea, the Lord hath covenanted this land unto me, and to my children forever,

and also all those who should be led out of other countries

by the hand of the Lord.

in the fulness of his wrath upon you,

that ye be cut off and destroyed forever;

with the seed of my son.

And thou hast beheld in thy youth his glory;

wherefore, thou art blessed

even as they unto whom he shall minister in the flesh;

for the Spirit is the same, yesterday, today, and forever.

and salvation is free.
