Bible: Hebrew Genesis

Famous quotes containing the words hebrew and/or genesis:

    He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up
    his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
    He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from
    the God of his salvation.
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm XXIV (l. XXIV, 4–5)

    If only he would not pity us so much,
    Weaken our fate, relieve us of woe both great
    And small, a constant fellow of destiny,
    A too, too human god, self-pity’s kin
    And uncourageous genesis . . .
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
