I

God supplies everyone’s needs at all times and in all places,

observing each person’s changing thoughts

and thus comforting and exhorting them,

and guiding and illuminating them.

No matter how people ignore God’s thinking,

He still repeatedly leads mankind,

repeatedly provides for mankind and helps them,

to enable them to follow God’s way

so they can attain the beautiful destination He has prepared for them.

II

When it comes to God, what He has and is, His grace, His mercy,

and all His rewards, will be bestowed without reservation

upon those who love and follow Him.

But He never reveals to any person

the pain He has suffered or His state of mind,

and He never complains about anyone

not being considerate toward Him or not knowing His will.

He simply bears all of this in silence,

waiting for the day mankind will be able to understand.

He simply bears all of this in silence,

waiting for the day mankind will be able to understand,

waiting for the day mankind will be able to understand.
