Chapter 10Bogur.1.10
Strofa 10
The Price of Redemption
The stanza reflects on the physical suffering of Christ and the outpouring of His blood as the means of human salvation.
For your sake, man, God allowed his hands and both his feet to be pierced; holy blood flowed from his side for your salvation.1
Read the original Latin
Ciebie dla, człowiecze, dał Bog przekłoć sobie Ręce, nodze obie, Kry święta szła z boka na zbawienie tobie.
Notes
- 1 ↩Middle Polish Kry = krew (blood); boka = side (of Christ on the cross). Fronted Ciebie dla is emphatic 'for you/for your sake.'

Never lose the rhythm again
Chosen Portion delivers your morning, midday and night office to your phone — the Hours, without the bells.
Chosen Portion is a modern Book of Hours: it turns the fixed-hour structure this collection preserves into scheduled, tappable daily prayer on your phone.
- Three daily prayer moments scheduled around your real calendar, not a monastery's
- Psalms and historic prayers sequenced for you — no page-flipping or decision fatigue
- A visible streak of completed offices, so the rhythm compounds instead of collapsing
