A choice seer will I raise up out of the fruit of thy loins;

and he shall be esteemed highly among the fruit of thy loins.

which shall be of great worth unto them,

even to the bringing of them to the knowledge of the covenants

which I have made with thy fathers.

shall bring my people unto salvation.
