Odes of Solomon

tr. Harris, 1911

Chapter 35

¹The dew of the Lord in quietness He distilled upon me: ²and the cloud of peace He caused to rise over my head, which guarded me continually; ³it was to me for salvation: everything was shaken and they were affrighted; ⁴and there came forth from them a smoke and a judgment; and I was keeping quiet in the order of the Lord: ⁵more than shelter was He to me, and more than foundation. ⁶And I was carried like a child by his mother: ¹and He gave me milk, the dew of the Lord¹: ⁷and I grew great by His bounty, and rested in His perfection, ⁸and I spread out my hands in the lifting up of my soul: and I was made right with the Most High, and I was redeemed with Him. Hallelujah.
