Vouchsafe Thy blessings, O Lord, my God, unto them that have
quaffed the wine of Thy love before the face of men, and, in spite of Thine
enemies, have acknowledged Thy unity, testified to Thy oneness, and confessed
their belief in that which hath made the limbs of the oppressors among Thy
creatures to quake, and the flesh of the proud ones of the earth to tremble. I
bear witness that Thy Sovereignty can never perish, nor Thy Will be altered.
Ordain for them that have set their faces towards Thee, and for Thine handmaids
that have held fast by Thy Cord, that which beseemeth the Ocean of Thy bounty
and the Heaven of Thy grace.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah’)
