And 'On their hands they will upbear thee, Lest ever thou shouldst strike thy foot against a stone.'"

This is the very man of whom Scripture says--'Behold, I am sending my Messenger before thy face, And he shall prepare thy way before thee.'

You know the commandments--'Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not say what is false about others, Honor thy father and thy mother.'"

Until I put they enemies as a stool for thy feet."'

"Father," he said, "if it is thy pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but thine be done."

Then Jesus, with a loud cry, said: "Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit." And with these words he expired.
