C\u00e9ad L\u00e9acht <\/em>(S\u00f3fania 3:14-18).

D\u00fairt s\u00e9: \u201cLeir\u00edonn r\u00fandiamhair na Beithile Dia-linn d\u00fainn, Dia gar d\u00fainn agus n\u00ed hamh\u00e1in sa chiall sp\u00e1is agus ama; t\u00e1 s\u00e9 c\u00f3ngarach d\u00fainn toisc gur \u201cph\u00f3s\u201d s\u00e9, mar a dh\u00e9arf\u00e1, \u00e1r ndaonnacht.
