In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

It was no sent one or angel, but he himself who was their saviour: in his love and in his pity he took up their cause, and he took them in his arms, caring for them all through the years.

Κατα πασας τας θλιψεις αυτων εθλιβετο, και ο αγγελος της παρουσιας αυτου εσωσεν αυτους· εν τη αγαπη αυτου και εν τη ευσπλαγχνια αυτου αυτος ελυτρωσεν αυτους· και εσηκωσεν αυτους και εβαστασεν αυτους πασας τας ημερας του αιωνος.
