The verse of the name

From the letter Kuf to the letter Zayin

An ancient custom gives each person a verse: the one that begins with the first letter of their name and ends with the last. No verse without a divine Name runs exactly from ק to ז: we then take the closest letter by sound, here from ק to צ.

קוֹל רַעַמְךָ בַּגַּלְגַּל הֵאִירוּ בְרָקִים תֵּבֵל רָגְזָה וַתִּרְעַשׁ הָאָרֶץ׃

“The sound of Your thunder rolled in the whirlwind; lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and shook.”

Psalms 77:19
