It was before the Lord; in his presence and service, which though contemptible to thee, is, and ever shall be, honourable in mine eyes. Which chose me before thy father, and before all his house; which took away the honour from him and his, and transferred it upon me, whereby he hath obliged me to love and serve him with all my might.
