Νήψατε γρηγορήσατε ὅτι ὁ ἀντίδικος ὑμῶν διάβολος ὡς λέων ὠρυόμενος περιπατεῖ ζητῶν τινα καταπίῃ·
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
ὅτι πᾶν τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ νικᾷ τὸν κόσμον· καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ νίκη ἡ νικήσασα τὸν κόσμον ἡ πίστις ἡμῶν
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
מִגְדַּל-עֹז שֵׁם יְהוָה בּֽוֹ-יָרוּץ צַדִּיק וְנִשְׂגָּֽב׃
The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
אַחַר׀ הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה הָיָה דְבַר-יְהוָה אֶל-אַבְרָם בַּֽמַּחֲזֶה לֵאמֹר אַל-תִּירָא אַבְרָם אָֽנֹכִי מָגֵן לָךְ שְׂכָֽרְךָ הַרְבֵּה מְאֹֽד׃
After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
בֵּֽאלֹהִים אֲהַלֵּל דָּבָר בַּיהוָה אֲהַלֵּל דָּבָֽר׃
In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.
Διὸ οὐκ ἐκκακοῦμεν ἀλλ' εἰ καὶ ὁ ἔξω ἡμῶν ἄνθρωπος διαφθείρεται ἀλλ' ὁ ἔσωθεν ἀνακαινοῦται ἡμέρᾳ καὶ ἡμέρᾳ
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
Πίστει Μωσῆς μέγας γενόμενος ἠρνήσατο λέγεσθαι υἱὸς θυγατρὸς Φαραώ
By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
οὐχ ὅτι κυριεύομεν ὑμῶν τῆς πίστεως ἀλλὰ συνεργοί ἐσμεν τῆς χαρᾶς ὑμῶν· τῇ γὰρ πίστει ἑστήκατε
Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
ἐν ᾧ περισσότερον βουλόμενος ὁ θεὸς ἐπιδεῖξαι τοῖς κληρονόμοις τῆς ἐπαγγελίας τὸ ἀμετάθετον τῆς βουλῆς αὐτοῦ ἐμεσίτευσεν ὅρκῳ
Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
חִצֵּי גִבּוֹר שְׁנוּנִים עִם גַּחֲלֵי רְתָמִֽים׃
Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
