By those [angels] ranged in rows
Translation 1260
who rebuke reproachfully
Translation 1260
and recite God’s word

truly your God is One
Translation 1260
Lord of the heavens and earth and everything between them, Lord of every sunrise

Translation 1260
and halt them for questioning
Translation 1260
“Why do you not support each other now?” ’––
