📖 Psalm 22:1 (Ethiopian)

Ge’ez:

እግዚአብሔር ፡ ይሬእየኒ ፡ ወአልቦ ፡ ዘያኀጥአኒ ።

Amharic:

እግዚአብሔር እረኛዬ ነው፤ የሚያሳጣኝም የለም።

English (KJV):

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

Reflection:

This sacred verse reminds us that God personally watches over us, like a loving shepherd. When He leads, we are never lost, never abandoned, and never in need of what truly matters. It is a declaration of trust, provision, and peace.

John 1:1

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

Geʽez:

ቀዳሚሁ ቃል ውእቱ፡ ወውእቱ ቃል ኀበ እግዚአብሔር፡ ውእቱ ወእግዚአብሔር ውእቱ ቃል።

Amharic:

በመጀመሪያ ቃል ነበረ፤ ቃልም ከእግዚአብሔር ጋር ነበረ፤ ቃልም እግዚአብሔር ነበረ።

Reflection:
In this verse, "ቃል" (The Word) is described as both eternal and divine. The Ge’ez tradition teaches that Christ, the Logos, existed before creation and was one with God. This reflects the power of divine speech — the same spiritual force through which all was made.
