Ireneus (Orda)
In the meantime, he had become a target of ridicule among the most despicable individuals, and his faith in God had transformed him. The outcomes he experienced were the complete reversal of what one would have anticipated.
Thou hast lifted me up, and set me as it were upon the wind, and thou hast mightily dashed me.
תִּשָּׂאֵ֣נִי אֶל־ר֭וּחַ תַּרְכִּיבֵ֑נִי וּ֝תְמֹגְגֵ֗נִי תשוה תּוּשִׁיָּֽה׃
