Selections from Writings Bab of -the Báb- 1 Para

Glorified is He besides Whom there is none other God. In His grasp He holdeth the source of authority, and verily God is powerful over all things. We have decreed that every long life shall in truth suffer decline [1] and that every hardship shall be followed by ease,[2] that perchance men may recognise the Gate of God as He Who is the eternal Truth, and verily God shall stand as witness unto those that have believed. Chapter XIII.[1=Qur 36:68 , 2=cf. ibid. 65:7; 94:5] (47:2)
