Testament of Our Lord

tr. Cooper and Maclean, 1902

16. Book I, Chapter 16

Then Martha and Mary, and Salome, who were with us,1 answered and said:—Yea, O our Lord, teach us to know what we ought to do, that our souls may live unto Thee. Then Jesus answered and said unto them: I will that, persevering in supplication,2 ye should always serve My Gospel, and be examples of3 holiness, for the salvation of those who trust patiently4 in Me; and in all things be figures of the kingdom of heaven.
