Indeed thou didst grasp the significance of rendering assistance unto God and didst arise to achieve this through the power of wisdom and utterance.  Say:  To assist Me is to teach My Cause.  This is a theme with which whole Tablets are laden.  This is the changeless commandment of God, eternal in the past, eternal in the future.  Comprehend this, O ye men of insight.  They that have passed beyond the bounds of wisdom fail to understand the meaning of assisting God as set forth in the Book.  Say:  Fear ye God and sow not the seeds of dissension amongst men.  Observe ye that which hath been enjoined upon you by your Lord, the Almighty, the All-Knowing.  He knoweth the reality of victory and hath taught it to you with an utterance that the vain imaginings of them that rove distraught in the wilderness of doubt can never corrupt.

O My Name!  Suffer all created things to quaff once again from this chalice which hath caused the seas to rise.  Kindle then in the hearts the blazing fire which this crimson Tree hath ignited, that they may arise to extol and magnify His Name amidst the adherents of all Faiths.

Numerous letters from thee have been presented before Our Throne.  We have perused them as a token of grace on Our part, and for each name thou didst mention therein We have revealed that which will stir the minds of men and will cause the spirits to soar.  Moreover We have repeatedly enabled thee to hearken unto the warblings of the birds of heaven and to incline thine ear to the songs of the nightingales pouring forth their melodies upon the branches.  Thus was the Pen of God set in motion in thy remembrance that thou mightest admonish men through the power of this utterance which is divinely ordained to be the revealer of the signs of His glory.

Blessed is the spot wherein the anthem of His praise is raised, and blessed the ear that hearkeneth unto that which hath been sent down from the heaven of the loving-kindness of thy Lord, the All-Merciful.

Exhort thou the servants of God unto that whereunto We have exhorted thee that they may abstain from whatsoever is forbidden them in the Mother Book.  Those who perpetrate deeds that would create turmoil among the people have indeed strayed far from helping God and His Cause and are numbered with the mischief-makers in the Tablet which God hath designated to be the dawning-place of all Tablets.

Say:  If it be Our pleasure We shall render the Cause victorious through the power of a single word from Our presence.  He is in truth the Omnipotent, the All-Compelling.  Should it be God’s intention, there would appear out of the forests of celestial might the lion of indomitable strength whose roaring is like unto the peals of thunder reverberating in the mountains.  However, since Our loving providence surpasseth all things, We have ordained that complete victory should be achieved through speech and utterance, that Our servants throughout the earth may thereby become the recipients of divine good.  This is but a token of God’s bounty vouchsafed unto them.  Verily thy Lord is the All-Sufficing, the Most Exalted.
