“O YE who are invested with the Bayán! Ye shall be put …” 141 |
|
O YE who are invested with the Bayán! Ye shall be put
to proof, even as those unto whom the Qur’án was given.
Have pity on yourselves, for ye shall witness the Day when
God will have revealed Him Who is the Manifestation of
His Own Self, invested with clear and irrefutable proofs,
while ye will cling tenaciously to the words the Witnesses
of the Bayán have uttered. On that Day ye will continue
to rove distraught, even as camels, seeking a drop of the
water of life. God will cause oceans of living water to
stream forth from the presence of Him Whom God shall
make manifest, while ye will refuse to quench your thirst
therefrom, notwithstanding that ye regard yourselves as
the God-fearing witnesses of your Faith. Nay, and yet
again, nay! Ye will go astray far beyond the peoples unto
whom the Gospel, or the Qur’án or any other Scripture
was given. Take good heed to yourselves, inasmuch as the
Cause of God will come upon you at a time when you
will all be entreating and tearfully imploring God for the
advent of the Day of His Manifestation; yet when He
cometh ye will tarry and will fail to be of those who are
well-assured in His Faith.
