Odes of Solomon

1The Lord has directed my mouth by His Word, and has opened my heart by His Light.

2And He has caused to dwell in me His immortal life, and permitted me to proclaim the fruit of His peace.

3To convert the lives of those who desire to come to Him, and to lead those who are captive into freedom.

4I took courage and became strong and captured the world, and the captivity became mine for the glory of the Most High, and of God my Father.

5And the Gentiles who had been dispersed were gathered together, but I was not defiled by my love for them, because they had praised me in high places.

6And the traces of light were set upon their heart, and they walked according to my life and were saved, and they became my people for ever and ever.

7Hallelujah.
