Subject: "Come Lord Jesus" – A Table Prayer (in Greek)

 

I was cleaning my home study and came across a scrap of paper with the following words in Greek:


̓Έρχου κύριε  Ἰησοῦ 

μεῖνον μεθ ͗ ἡμῶν. 

Εὐλόγησον ἡμᾶς

καὶ ταῦτα δόματα τῶν οὐρανῶν. 

Ἀμήν.

 

For those of you who don't read Greek, here is a literal translation:

 

Come Lord Jesus,

Stay with Us.

Bless us and these gifts of heaven.

Amen.

 

Some further thought on the Greek:

 

̓Έρχου κύριε  Ἰησοῦ (Rev. 22:20)

μεῖνον μεθ ͗ ἡμῶν. (Luke 24:29)

Εὐλόγησον ἡμᾶς

καὶ ταῦτα δόματα τῶν οὐρανῶν. (Matthew 7:11; Ephesians 4:8)

Ἀμήν.
