Therefore I say to you, O nations that hear and understand, "Await your shepherd; he will give you everlasting rest, because he who will come at the end of the age is close at hand.
35
Be ready for the rewards of the kingdom, because the eternal light will shine upon you for evermore.

Receive what the Lord has entrusted to you and be joyful, giving thanks to him who has called you to heavenly kingdoms.
