He was the lamp that burneth and shineth; and ye were willing to rejoice for a season in his light.

He was a burning and shining light, and for a time you were ready to be happy in his light.

Εκεινος ητο ο λυχνος ο καιομενος και φεγγων, και σεις ηθελησατε να αγαλλιασθητε προς ωραν εις το φως αυτου.

He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
