Isaiah 50:11. Behold, all ye that kindle a fire,
Ye who would fain save yourselves, -
Isaiah 50:11. That compass yourselves about with sparks:
Or, firebrands, -
Isaiah 50:11. Walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks -
Or, flambeaux -
Isaiah 50:11. That ye have kindled.
That will be the end of it. This grand illumination of yours, - all your good works, all your glorious intellect, and I know not what, - what will come of it?
Isaiah 50:11. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
God save us all from such a lying down so that at the last, for Christ’s sake! Amen.
