And David says, Let their table be for a snare, and for a gin, and for a fall-trap, and for a recompense to them:

And again he says, Rejoice, nations, with his people.

And again, Esaias says, There shall be the root of Jesse, and one that arises, to rule over the nations: in him shall the nations hope.
