هُوَ الَّذِي يَأْتِي بَعْدِي، الَّذِي صَارَ قُدَّامِي، الَّذِي لَسْتُ بِمُسْتَحِقّ أَنْ أَحُلَّ سُيُورَ حِذَائِهِ».He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.John 1:27, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَكَانَ يَكْرِزُ قَائِلاً: «يَأْتِي بَعْدِي مَنْ هُوَ أَقْوَى مِنِّي، الَّذِي لَسْتُ أَهْلاً أَنْ أَنْحَنِيَ وَأَحُلَّ سُيُورَ حِذَائِهِ.And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.Mark 1:7, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
لَيْسَ فِيهِمْ رَازِحٌ وَلاَ عَاثِرٌ. لاَ يَنْعَسُونَ وَلاَ يَنَامُونَ، وَلاَ تَنْحَلُّ حُزُمُ أَحْقَائِهِمْ، وَلاَ تَنْقَطِعُ سُيُورُ أَحْذِيَتِهِمِ.None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:Isaiah 5:27, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
