Didache 10

November 29, 2006 |

The tenth part of Didache:

1. And after ye are satisfied thus give ye thanks:2. We give Thee thanks, Holy Father, for Thy holy name, which Thou hast made to tabernacle in our hearts, and for the knowledge and faith and immortality, which Thou hast made known unto us through Thy Son Jesus; Thine is the glory for ever and ever.

3. Thou, Almighty Master, didst create all things for Thy name’s sake, and didst give food and drink unto men for enjoyment, that they might render thanks to Thee; but didst bestow upon us spiritual food and drink and eternal life through Thy Son.

4. Before all things we give Thee thanks that Thou art powerful; Thine is the glory for ever and ever.

5. Remember, Lord, Thy Church to deliver it from all evil and to perfect it in Thy love; and gather it together from the four winds - even the Church which has been sanctified - into Thy kingdom which Thou hast prepared for it; for Thine is the power and the glory for ever and ever.

6. May grace come and may this world pass away. Hosanna to the God of David. If any man is holy, let him come; if any man is not, let him repent. Maran Atha. Amen.

7. But permit the prophets to offer thanksgiving as much as they desire.
