1
And a certain rich man ordered him to make him a couch. And one of what is
called the cross pieces being too short, they did not know what to do.
2
The child
Jesus said to His father Joseph: Put down the two pieces of wood, and make them
even in the middle.
3
And Joseph did as the child said to him. And Jesus stood at
the other end, and took hold of the shorter piece of wood, and stretched it, and
made it equal to the other.
4
And His father Joseph saw it, and wondered, and
embraced the child, and blessed Him, saying: Blessed am I, because God has given
me this child.
