Homilies of Chrysostom Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.
Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud. The Homilies of St. John Chrysostom NICENE AND POST-NICENE FATHERS OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH, EDITED BY PHILIP SCHAFF Text Courtesy of Christian Classics Etherial Library. Bible Hub |
