ed Me bitterly. However, the irrevocable decision resteth with none
but God and the decree proceedeth from none save Him alone. By My life,
Thou art the Well-Beloved in the sight of God and His creation. Verily,
there is no power except in God, and sufficient witness unto Me is your
Lord, Who is, in very truth, the Omnipotent Avenger. _Chapter LVIII._

"O Peoples of the earth! By the righteousness of God, this ..."
