Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
Abraham
The Lord bless thee and keep thee. The Lord make his face to shine upon thee and be merciful unto thee. The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
William Tyndale
I will not let thee go.
I hold thee by too many bands:
Thou sayest farewell, and lo!
I have thee by the hands,
And will not let thee go.Robert Bridges
Go poor Devil, get thee gone, why should I hurt thee? — This world surely is wide enough to hold both thee and me.
Laurence Sterne
In Fleet Street, in Fleet Street, the People are so fleet
They barely touch the cobble-stones with their nimble feet!Eleanor Farjeon
