Let us gaze upon Jesus, as the Author and the completion of our faith, who, having joy laid out before Him, endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and who now sits at the right hand of the throne of God. (Heb 12:2)

And He did not permit him, but He said to him, Go to your own people, in your own house, and announce to them how great are the things that Lord has done for you, and how He has taken pity on you. (Mk 5:19)

καὶ οὐκ ἀφῆκεν αὐτόν, ἀλλὰ λέγει αὐτῷ· ὕπαγε εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου πρὸς τοὺς σοὺς καὶ ἀπάγγειλον αὐτοῖς ὅσα ὁ κύριός σοι πεποίηκεν καὶ ἠλέησέν σε.

et non admisit eum, sed ait illi: Vade in domum tuam ad tuos, et annuncia illis quanta tibi Dominus fecerit, et misertus sit tui.

Seek the Lord, all you meek of the earth; you who have been working are His judgment. Seek the just, seek the meek. So then, in some way, you might be hidden in the day of the fury of the Lord. (Zep 2:3)

בַּקְּשׁ֤וּ אֶת־יְהוָה֙ כָּל־עַנְוֵ֣י הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֥ר מִשְׁפָּטֹ֖ו פָּעָ֑לוּ בַּקְּשׁוּ־צֶ֨דֶק֙ בַּקְּשׁ֣וּ עֲנָוָ֔ה אוּלַי֙ תִּסָּ֣תְר֔וּ בְּיֹ֖ום אַף־יְהוָֽה׃

Rememoramini autem pristinos dies, in quibus illuminati, magnum certamen sustinuistis passionum.

For there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. Neither was anything done in secret, except that it may be made public. (Mk 4:22)

οὐ γάρ ἐστιν κρυπτὸν ἐὰν μὴ ἵνα φανερωθῇ, οὐδὲ ἐγένετο ἀπόκρυφον ἀλλ’ ἵνα ἔλθῃ εἰς φανερόν. (Mk 4,22)

They will pick up snakes in their hands and be unharmed should they drink deadly poison; they will lay their hands on the sick, who will recover. (Mk 16:18)

In qua voluntate sanctificati sumus per oblationem corporis Iesu Christi semel.

Otherwise, He would need to have suffered repeatedly since the beginning of the world. But now, one time, at the consummation of the ages, He has appeared in order to destroy sin through His own sacrifice. (Heb 9:26)

The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. A light has risen for the inhabitants of the region of the shadow of death. (Is 9:2)

ὅτι αὕτη ἡ διαθήκη, ἣν διαθήσομαι τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰσραὴλ μετὰ τὰς ἡμέρας ἐκείνας, λέγει κύριος· διδοὺς νόμους μου εἰς τὴν διάνοιαν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπὶ καρδίας αὐτῶν ἐπιγράψω αὐτούς, καὶ ἔσομαι αὐτοῖς εἰς θεόν, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔσονταί μοι εἰς λαόν.

And so He has said: “It is a small thing that you should be My Servant so as to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and so as to convert the dregs of Israel. Behold, I have offered you as a light for the Gentiles, so that you may be My salvation, even to the furthest regions of the earth. (Is 49:6)

וַיֹּ֗אמֶר נָקֵ֨ל מִֽהְיוֹתְךָ֥ לִי֙ עֶ֔בֶד לְהָקִים֙ אֶת־שִׁבְטֵ֣י יַעֲקֹ֔ב וּנְציּרֵ֥י* יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לְהָשִׁ֑יב וּנְתַתִּ֨יךָ֙ לְאֹ֣ורגּוֹיִ֔ם לִֽהְיֹ֥ות יְשׁוּעָתִ֖י עַד־קְצֵ֥ה הָאָֽרֶץ׃

For it was fitting for Him, because of whom and through whom all things exist, who had led many children into glory, to complete the Authorship of their salvation through His Passion. (Heb 2:10)

Ἔπρεπεν γὰρ αὐτῷ, διʼ ὃν τὰ πάντα καὶ διʼ οὗ τὰ πάντα, πολλοὺς υἱοὺς εἰς δόξαν ἀγαγόντα τὸν ἀρχηγὸν τῆς σωτηρίας αὐτῶν διὰ παθημάτων τελειῶσαι.

Decebat enim eum, propter quem omnia, et per quem omnia, qui multos filios in gloriam adduxerat, auctorem salutis eorum per passionem consummare.

And since the Son is the brightness of His glory, and the figure of His substance, and is carrying all things by the Word of His virtue, thereby accomplishing a purging of sins, He sits at the right hand of Majesty on high. (Heb 1:3)

ὃς ὢν ἀπαύγασμα τῆς δόξης καὶ χαρακτὴρ τῆς ὑποστάσεως αὐτοῦ, φέρων τε τὰ πάντα τῷ ῥήματι τῆς δυνάμεως oαὐτοῦ, καθαρισμὸν τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ποιησάμενος ἐκάθισεν ἐν δεξιᾷ τῆς μεγαλωσύνης ἐν ὑψηλοῖς.

qui cum sit splendor gloriæ, et figura substantiæ eius, portansque omnia verbo virtutis suæ, purgationem peccatorum faciens, sedet ad dexteram maiestatis in excelsis.
