Source (Persian)
يا ملک قد سقطت انجم سماء العلم الّذين يستدلّون بما عندهم لاثبات امری و يذکرون اللّه باسمی فلمّا جئتهم بمجدی اعرضوا عَنَّی أَلَا انّهم من السّاقطين * هذا ما اخبرکم به الرّوح اذ اتی بالحقّ و اعترض عليه علماء اليهود الی ان ارتکبوا ما ناح به روح القدس و ذرفت دموع المقرّبين *
Shoghi Effendi Translation
"O King! The stars of the heaven of knowledge have fallen, they who seek to establish the truth of My Cause through the things they possess, and who make mention of God in My Name. And yet, when I came unto them in My glory, they turned aside. They, indeed, are of the fallen. This is, truly, that which the Spirit of God (Jesus Christ) hath announced, when He came with truth unto you, He with Whom the Jewish doctors disputed, till at last they perpetrated what hath made the Holy Spirit to lament, and the tears of them that have near access to God to flow.
