Source (Arabic)
(٧٠) ﴿ يَا ابْنَ مَنْ قامَ فِي مَلَكُوتِ نَفْسِهِ ﴾
اعْلَمْ بِأَنِّي قَدْ أَرْسَلْتُ إِلَيْكَ رَوائِحَ الْقُدْسِ كُلَّهَا، وَأَتْمَمْتُ الْقَوْلَ عَلَيْكَ وَأَكْمَلْتُ النِّعْمَةَ بِكَ وَرَضِيتُ لَكَ مَا رَضِيتُ لِنَفْسِي، فَارْضَ عَنِّي ثُمَّ اشْكُرْ لِي.
Shoghi Effendi Translation
(70) O SON OF HIM THAT STOOD BY HIS OWN ENTITY IN THE KINGDOM OF HIS SELF!
Know thou, that I have wafted unto thee all the fragrances of holiness, have fully revealed to thee My word, have perfected through thee My bounty and have desired for thee that which I have desired for My Self. Be then content with My pleasure and thankful unto Me.
