and |
since Thou didst suffer them to enter into the Tabernacle of Thy Cause, |
grant by Thy grace that they may not be kept back from Thee. |
Unlock, |
then, |
to their hearts, |
O my God, |
the portals of Thy knowledge, |
that they may recognize Thee as One Who is far above the reach and ken of |
the understanding of Thy creatures, |
and immeasurably exalted above the |
strivings of Thy people to hint at Thy nature, |
and may not follow every |
clamorous impostor that presumeth to speak in Thy name. |
Enable them, |
moreover, |
O my Lord, |
to cleave so tenaciously to Thy Cause that they may |
remain unmoved by the perplexing suggestions of them who, |
prompted by |
their desires, |
utter what hath been forbidden unto them in Thy Tablets and |
Thy Scriptures. |
Thou art well aware, |
O my Lord, |
that I hear the howling of the wolves |
which appear in Thy servants' clothing. |
Keep safe, |
therefore, |
Thy loved |
ones from their mischief, |
and enable them to cling steadfastly to |

and victorious over all that are in Thy heaven and all that are |

Whose help is implored by all men. |
Praised be Thou, |
Who art the Lord of all creation. |
Praised be Thou, |
O Lord my God! |
I implore Thee by Thine Ancient Beauty and |
Most Great Name, |
Whom Thou hast sacrificed that all the dwellers of Thine |
earth and heaven may be born anew, |
and Whom Thou hast cast into prison |
that mankind may, |
as a token of Thy bounty and of Thy sovereign might, |
be |
released from the bondage of evil passions and corrupt desires, |
to number |
me with those who have so deeply inhaled the fragrance of Thy mercy, |
and |
hastened with such speed unto the living waters of Thy grace, |
that no dart |
could hinder them from turning unto Thee, |
nor any spear from setting their |
faces towards the orient of Thy Revelation. |
We testify, |
O my Lord, |
that Thou art God and that there is none other God |
besides Thee. |
From everlasting Thou wast enthroned on the inaccessible |
heights of Thy power, |
