Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom
- 2 -
12. On their hands shall they bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot
against a stone.
13. Upon the asp and basilisk shalt thou tread, and thou shalt trample upon the lion
and dragon.
14. For he hath set his hope on Me, and I will deliver him; I will shelter him
because he hath known My name.
15. He shall cry unto Me, and I will hearken unto him. I am with him in affliction,
and I will rescue him and glorify him.
16. With length of days will I satisfy him, and I will show him My salvation.
