Ode XXXVI

She bore me before the face of the Lord, and though I was a human being, I was named the Luminous One, the Son of God.

1.

I rested on the Spirit of the Lord,
and she raised me to the height.

2.

And she set me on my feet in the height of the Lord,
before his perfection and his glory,
while I was praising him in the composition of his songs.

3.

She bore me before the face of the Lord,
and though I was a human being,
I was named the Luminous One, the Son of God.

4.

While I was praising among the praised,
and great among the great.

5.

For according to the greatness of the Most High, so she made me,
and according to his renewal he renewed me.

6.

And he anointed me from his perfection,
and I became one of those near to him.

7.

And my mouth was opened like a cloud of dew,
and my heart gushed forth a gushing of righteousness.

8.

And my approach was in peace,
and I was established in the Spirit of governance.
Hallelujah.
