“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: Because of You we are being put to death all day long; we are counted as sheep to be slaughtered. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” (Romans 8:35-37)Arabic calligraphy text in Arabic (original):
“من سيفصلنا عن محبة المسيح؟ أشدة أم ضيق أم اضطهاد أم جوع أم عري أم خطر أم سيف. كما هو مكتوب: إننا من أجلك نمات كل النهار. قد حسبنا مثل غنم للذبح. ولكننا في هذه جميعها يعظم انتصارنا بالذي أحبنا.” (رومية 8: 35-37)
