BIBLE CRYPTOGRAMS

Old Testament Cryptograms

Cryptograms are simple substitution messages where one letter is substituted for another. For example, if your coder were to substitute the the following letters for the first five letters of the alphabet thus

F = A
G = B
H = C
I = D
J = E

then the word coded I J F I
would be decoded as D E A D.
Each letter of the alphabet is represented by a unique other letter.

The following cypher is composed of two familiar verses from, the Old Testament.
