Seite 36 - Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child ; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
