¹³ I will take the cup of salvation, and give praise to the name of the Lord.

¹ I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; to take my myrrh with my spice; my wax with my honey; my wine with my milk. Take meat, O friends; take wine, yes, be overcome with love.

⁹ And the roof of your mouth like good wine flowing down smoothly for my loved one, moving gently over my lips and my teeth.

⁶ And in this mountain will the Lord of armies make for all peoples a feast of good things, a feast of wines long stored, of good things sweet to the taste, of wines long kept and tested.

¹ Ho! everyone in need, come to the waters, and he who has no strength, let him get food: come, get bread without money; wine and milk without price.

²³ And he took a cup, and when he had given praise, he gave it to them: and they all had a drink from it.

²⁴ And he said to them, This is my blood of the testament, which is given for men.

²⁰ And in the same way, after the meal, he took the cup, saying, This cup is the new testament, made with my blood which is given for you.

¹⁶ The cup of blessing which we take, does it not give us a part in the blood of Christ? and is not the broken bread a taking part in the body of Christ?

²⁸ But let no man take of the bread and the cup without testing himself.
