Source (Arabic)
(١٤) ﴿ يَا ابْنَ الإِنْسانِ ﴾
أَنْتَ مُلْكِي وَمُلْكِي لا يَفْنى كَيْفَ تَخافُ مِنْ فَنائِكَ، وَأَنْتَ نُوري وَنُوري لا يُطْفى كَيْفَ تَضْطَرِبُ مِنْ إِطْفائِكَ، وَأَنْتَ بَهائِي وَبَهائِي لا يُغْشى، وَأَنْتَ قَمِيصي وَقَميصِي لَا يَبْلَى، فَاسْتَرِح فِي حُبِّكَ إِيَّايَ لِكَيْ تَجِدَنِي فِي الأُفُقِ الأَعْلى.
Shoghi Effendi Translation
(14) O SON OF MAN!
Thou art My dominion and My dominion perisheth not; wherefore fearest thou thy perishing? Thou art My light and My light shall never be extinguished; why dost thou dread extinction? Thou art My glory and My glory fadeth not; thou art My robe and My robe shall never be outworn. Abide then in thy love for Me, that thou mayest find Me in the realm of glory.
