For the Egyptians shall help in vain and to no purpose; therefore I have cried out concerning this that your strength should be to sit still. Now go, write this vision before them on a tablet and note it in a book that it may remain unto the last day, for ever, unto all ages.

Watch thy feet when thou goest to the house of God and draw near with more willingness to hear than to give the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know how to do what God wants.

But that on the good ground are those who in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it and bring forth fruit with patience.

Blessed is the man that hears me, keeping vigil at my gates, waiting at the threshold of my doors.

Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; clear up, clear up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a banner as an example for the people.

And a highway shall be there and a way, and it shall be called The Way of Holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; and for those in it there shall be someone to go with them, in such a manner that the foolish shall not err therein.

Behold, I will do a new thing; it shall come to light quickly; shall ye not know it? I will again make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

The highway of the upright is to separate himself from evil; he that keeps his way preserves his soul.

Establish signs, make thee high markers; consider the highway with great care, even the way which thou didst come; return, O virgin of Israel, return unto these thy cities.
