1 Samuel 2:10
armenian-nea
Տերը տկարացնում է իր հակառակորդներին։ Տերը սուրբ է։ Ո՛չ իմաստունը թող պարծենա իր իմաստությամբ, ո՛չ հզորն իր զորությամբ, ո՛չ էլ մեծատունն իր հարստությամբ։ Պարծեցողը պետք է պարծենա նրանով, որ իմանում ու ճանաչում է Տիրոջը, և երկրում իրավունք և արդարություն է գործադրում։ Տերը երկինք ելավ ու որոտաց. Նա է, որ արդար լինելով, դատելու է երկրի չորս ծագերը։ Մեր թագավորներին զորություն է տալու և զորավիգ է լինելու իր օծյալին»։
