1. for your imperishable spirit is in all things!
2. Therefore you rebuke offenders little by little,warn them, and remind them of the sins they are committing,that they may abandon their wickedness and believe in you, Lord!
3. For truly, the ancient inhabitants of your holy land,
4. whom you hated for deeds most odious—works of sorcery and impious sacrifices;
5. These merciless murderers of children,devourers of human flesh,and initiates engaged in a blood ritual,
6. and parents who took with their own hands defenseless lives,You willed to destroy by the hands of our ancestors,
