The verse of the name

From the letter Kuf to the letter Shin

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 ש: we then take the closest letter by sound, here from כ to ש.

כִּי־אִם־שִׂישׂוּ וְגִילוּ עֲדֵי־עַד אֲשֶׁר אֲנִי בוֹרֵא כִּי הִנְנִי בוֹרֵא אֶת־יְרוּשָׁלַ͏ִם גִּילָהֿ וְעַמָּהּ מָשׂוֹשׂ׃

“Rather, be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; for behold, I am creating Jerusalem as a delight, and her people as a joy.”

Isaiah 65:18
