me out of all Thy creatures, |
and made me to be the Day-Spring of Thy |
strength and the Manifestation of Thy might, |
and empowered me to reveal |
such of Thy signs and such tokens of Thy majesty and power as none, |
whether in Thy heaven or on Thy earth, |
can produce. |
I beseech Thee, |
O my Lord, |
by Thy most effulgent Name, |
to acquaint my |
people with the things Thou didst destine for them. |
Do Thou, |
then, |
preserve them within the stronghold of Thy guardianship and the tabernacle |
of Thine unerring protection, |
lest through them may appear what will |
divide Thy servants. |
Assemble them, |
O my Lord, |
on the shores of this |
Ocean, |
every drop of which proclaimeth Thee to be God, |
besides Whom there |
is none other God, |
the All-Glorious, |
the All-Wise. |
Uncover before them, |
O my Lord, |
the majesty of Thy Cause, |
lest they be led |
to doubt Thy sovereignty and the power of Thy might. |
I swear by Thy glory, |
O Thou Who art the Beloved of the worlds! |
Had they been aware of Thy power |
they would of a certainty have refused to utter what Thou didst not ordain |
for them in the heaven of Thy will. |
Inspire them, |
O my Lord, |
with a sense of their own powerlessness before |
Him Who is the Manifestation of Thy Self, |
and teach them to recognize the |
poverty of their own nature in the face of the manifold tokens of Thy |
self-sufficiency and riches, |
that they may gather together round Thy |
Cause, |
and cling to the hem of Thy mercy, |
and cleave to the cord of the |
good-pleasure of Thy will. |
Thou art the Lord of the worlds, |
and of all those who show mercy, |
art the |
Most Merciful. |
Glory be to Thee, |
O King of eternity, |
and the Maker of nations, |
and the |
Fashioner of every moldering bone! |
I pray Thee, |
by Thy Name through which |
Thou didst call all mankind unto the horizon of Thy majesty and glory, |
and |
didst guide Thy servants to the court of Thy grace and favors, |
to number |
me with such as have rid themselves from everything except Thyself, |
and |
have set themselves towards Thee, |
and have not been kept back by such |
misfortunes as were decreed by Thee, |
from turning in the direction of Thy |
gifts. |
I have laid hold, |
O my Lord, |
on the handle of Thy bounty, |
and clung |
steadfastly to the hem of the robe of Thy favor. |
Send down, |
then, |
upon me, |
