«And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways; / To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins, / Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us, / To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.»

«Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? / Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; / When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? / Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb? / When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it, / And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors, / And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed? / Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place; / That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it? / It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.»
