55. O son of being! Busy not thyself with this world, for with fire We test the gold, and with gold We test Our servants. (16:4) 56. O son of man! Thou dost wish for gold and I desire thy freedom from it. Thou thinkest thyself rich in its possession, and I recognize thy wealth in thy sanctity therefrom. By My life! This is My knowledge, and that is thy fancy; how can My way accord with thine?
(16:5)
