Chapter 176: The Unspeakable Holy Name
It was Isis who paused suddenly, as if the scene she had narrated had come again, and had happened to her again.
"What's wrong with you, Isis?" asked Sether.
She let out a rough sigh, a whisper that seemed to come from the darkness, and at first Sether didn't hear what she was saying, but she repeated it many times, and he finally understood that Isis was praising the glory of the Eternal King.
This shocked Sether, could a creature like Isis praise the Eternal King, shouldn't they all tremble in fear and blasphemy against Him in the face?, he raised his eyes and glanced at Isis, looking at her with a new attitude.
Immersed in the memories, Isis kept saying, "Holy, holy, holy, the Lord God is the Almighty, who was, is, and will always be!"
Sether was reluctant to prepare for the worship she was talking about, and waited until she was quiet before cautiously asking the question, "Isis, Isis," he reached out and touched her cold-as-corpse arm, "you should go on." ”
"Ahh............h
"Demons can worship the Eternal King?" Sether questioned, raising his eyelids.
"You also think I'm 100% demon," Isis's voice was bitter, "Am I worthy to worship the Eternal King?" and to tell you the truth, I don't know if I'm a demon, or a human, or a hybrid of both...... I had no idea what I was......"
"But I see in you the great mercy of the King of Eternity, even when you have become what you are, even though you have betrayed Him and rejected Him many times in the past few years ago, He has not forsaken you," Sether heard his voice full of tenderness, "because you are made in His image, and because you are human—even the angels who surround Him and serve Him at all times, He does not give such deep mercy and affection as the sea. It seems to me that no matter how much you put yourself in a situation, no matter how brazenly Satan has done to harm you and defile you, you will always be like a newborn beloved, innocent human child," Seser took a pause and muttered, "so that's why you can always worship Him—even if you and Satan both think you're no longer human." ”
"When I described all this to you before, I remembered how wonderful it was to be able to worship the Eternal King, and that's why I hit this apart," Isis rubbed her dry eyes, blood and charcoal falling on her cheeks and the back of her hands, and she flung them away, "My time is running out, Sether...... Now, let's go back to the tombs of the Ethiopians. ”
"Well, let's go back to the tombs of the Ethiopians. Sether repeated.
Then Belel stood up and swooped straight at me. Isis continued to reminisce, "At that time, I knew that I had no strength to overcome her, and what he was waiting for was the moment when I would be destroyed. I knew I was finished, I heard myself screaming, Belel with black wings outstretched, two other madmen yelling, and Nimrod and the rest of the hidden Eternal Guards roaring...... "Le."
"I know we're going to be finished. But I was not reconciled, and at that moment, just at that moment, I knelt down, threw myself on my knees, threw myself on the ground, and cried out a name that I could not say as a demon. ”
"How did you know that name?
"Nobody told me, I just knew. Isis shook his head, "Later, when I think back to all the past, I realize that it is possible that the King of kings has put His name in the deepest part of my heart since I was born. So when I was cornered and the whole world couldn't save me, so when the whole hell came rushing at me again, I subconsciously called out that name. ”
"Can't you tell me that name?" Sether frowned.
"I can't say, even if I scratch you with my finger on the sand," Isis said, "because for any creature from hell, saying that name is fatal to us." ”
"But it is incredible that you can worship the King of Eternity. "As far as I know, no creature from hell can worship and praise the Eternal King, not even cry out to the heavens and raise their eyes to the sky, all they can do is kneel before His throne in fear and trembling." ”
"You know that well, so I think I'm a special case. But don't regret not being able to get that name out of my mouth, Sether, for I trust that the woman you love, and even yourself, your souls will lead your flesh to that incomparable name—for you are human and chosen by Him, and He loves you. ”
Isis's last words made Seser look up in surprise, and he looked like he wanted to say something, but he still swallowed the words into his stomach, and Seser whispered a little vaguely, "Okay, okay...... Please go ahead, you said you said that name, and then what?"
And then, in an instant, time seemed to stop. I saw that Belliel's fangs and claws were like a cloud of solidified black smoke, frozen in time and space. Most of the sounds in my ears were gone, whether it was the shouts of the madman, the sneer of Belier, or the roar of Nimrod, but the sound of insects, the sound of sandy grass, or the sound of my breathing was still there. Time stopped on them, but it continued on me and the path that spilled from the horizon. At this, Isis stopped again.
"What do you mean by that?" Sether had to remind her to continue.
"If you could see what I was going through, you wouldn't have to ask me anything. Isis said with a strange expression, "As I called on His name, the chaos and evil around me ceased, and I saw a small fishing boat sail up the winding white path and stop. I stood up in astonishment, for this was a desert, a great and terrible wilderness, and where did the water and the sea come from? ”
"A man in a white linen shawl stepped out of the old fishing boat, dressed in a style I had never seen before, but unpretentiously unremarkable, the only thing special was that the hem of the man's clothes and around his turban were set with white tassels. ”
