| Having yet therefore one son, his well-beloved, He sent Him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence My son. But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill Him, and the inheritance shall be ours. (Mark 12:6‑7) |
| I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against Me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut Him off from the land of the living, that His name may be no more remembered. (Jer. 11:19) |
Lord, e’en to death Thy love could go, A death of shame and loss, To vanquish for us every foe, And break the strong man’s force. |
