Unto Thee be praise,
O Lord my God!
I beseech Thee by Thy Most Great Name
Who hath been shut up in the prison-town of Akká,
and Who--as Thou
beholdest,
O my God--hath fallen into the hands of His enemies,
and is
threatened by the swords of the wicked doers,
to make me steadfast in His
Cause,
and to direct mine eyes continually towards His court,
in such wise
that nothing whatsoever will have the power to turn me back from Him.
I testify,
O my Lord,
that He hath surrendered His life in Thy path,
and
hath wished for Himself nothing but tribulation in the love He beareth to
Thee.
He hath endured all manner of vexations that He may manifest Thy
sovereignty unto Thy servants,
and exalt Thy word amidst Thy creatures.
As
the adversities deepened,
and the troubles sent down by Thee compassed Him
on every side,
He became so impassioned by His thought of Thee,
that the
hosts of all them that had disbelieved in Thee and repudiated Thy signs
ceased to affright Him.
I implore Thee,
O my Lord,
by Him and by whatsoever pertaineth unto Him,
to set my affections upon Him even as He hath set His own affections upon
Thyself.
I testify that His love is Thy love,
and His self Thy self,
and
His beauty Thy beauty,
and His Cause Thy Cause.
Deny me not,
O my Lord,
what is with Thee,
and suffer me not to be
forgetful of what Thou didst desire in Thy days.
Thou art,
verily,
the
Almighty,
the Most Exalted,
the All-Glorious,
the All-Wise.
Lauded be Thy name,
O Lord my God!
I entreat Thee by Thy Name through
which the Hour hath struck,
and the Resurrection came to pass,
and fear
and trembling seized all that are in heaven and all that are on earth,
to
rain down,
out of the heaven of Thy mercy and the clouds of Thy tender
compassion,
what will gladden the hearts of Thy servants,
who have turned
towards Thee and helped Thy Cause.
Keep safe Thy servants and Thy handmaidens,
O my Lord,
from the darts of
idle fancy and vain imaginings,
and give them from the hands of Thy grace
a draught of the soft-flowing waters of Thy knowledge.
Thou,
