CXLII: “Glory be to Thee, O my God! My face hath been…” 231 |
Glory be to Thee, O my God! My face hath been
set towards Thy face, and my face is, verily, Thy
face, and my call is Thy call, and my Revelation
Thy Revelation, and my self Thy Self, and my
Cause Thy Cause, and my behest Thy behest, and my
Being Thy Being, and my sovereignty Thy sovereignty,
and my glory Thy glory, and my power Thy
power.
|
I implore Thee, O Thou Fashioner of the nations
and the King of eternity, to guard Thy handmaidens
within the tabernacle of Thy chastity, and to cancel
such of their deeds as are unworthy of Thy days.
Purge out, then, from them, O my God, all doubts
and idle fancies, and sanctify them from whatsoever
becometh not their kinship with Thee, O Thou Who
art the Lord of names, and the Source of utterance.
Thou art He in Whose grasp are the reins of the
entire creation.
