EN No angel or archangel in heaven, no saint, not even the Blessed Virgin herself, has the power of a priest of God: the power of the keys, the power to bind and to loose from sin, the power of exorcism, the power to cast out from the creatures of God the evil spirits that have power over them; the power, the authority, to make the great God of Heaven come down upon the altar and take the form of bread and wine.
GL Ningún anxo ou arcanxo no ceo, ningún santo, nin sequera a mesmiña Virxe María, teñen o poder dun ministro de Deus: o poder das chaves, o poder de atar e desatar pecados, o poder do exorcismo, o poder de expulsar das criaturas de Deus os espíritos malignos que se teñen apoderado delas; o poder, de facer que o gran Deus do Ceo baixe ao altar e tome a forma do pan e máis do viño.
