13 God did aforetime Take a Covenant from The Children of Israel, And We appointed twelve Captains among them. And God said: I am With you: if ye (but) Establish regular Prayers, Practise regular Charity, Believe in My apostles, Honour and assist them, And loan to God A beautiful loan, Verily I will wipe out From you your evils, And admit you to Gardens With rivers flowing beneath; But if any of you, after this, Resisteth faith, he hath truly Wandered from the path Of rectitude. 14 But because of their breach Of their Covenant, We Cursed them, and made Their hearts grow hard: They change the words From their (right) places And forget a good part Of the Message that was Sent them, nor wilt thou Cease to find them Barring a few—ever Bent on (new) deceits: But forgive them, and overlook (Their misdeeds): for God Loveth those who are kind. 15 From those, too, who call Themselves Christians, We did take a Covenant, But they forgot a good part Of the Message that was Sent them: so We estranged Them, with enmity and hatred Between the one and the other, To the Day of Judgment. And soon will God show Them what it is They have done. 16 O People of the Book! There hath come to you Our Apostle, revealing To you much that ye Used to hide in the Book, And passing over much (That is now unnecessary): 17 There hath come to you From God a (new) light And a perspicuous Book,— 18 Wherewith God guideth all Who seek His good pleasure To ways of peace and safety, And leadeth them out Of darkness, by His Will, Unto the light,—guideth them To a Path that is Straight. 19 In blasphemy indeed Are those that say That God is Christ The son of Mary. Say: Who then Hath the least power Against God, if His Will Were to destroy Christ The son of Mary, his mother, And all—every one That is on the earth? For to God belongeth The dominion of the heavens And the earth, and all That is between. He createth What He pleaseth. For God Hath power over all things. 20 (Both) the Jews and the Christians Say: We are sons Of God, and His beloved. Say: Why then doth He Punish you for your sins? Nay, ye are but men, Of the men He hath created: He forgiveth whom He pleaseth, And He punisheth whom He pleaseth: And to God belongeth The dominion of the heavens And the earth, and all That is between: And unto Him Is the final goal (of all) THE SUN Like a bridegroom the sun Dons his robe that is spun Of light, Which from Thee emanated Yet in no wise abated Thy light. Taught to go westward round With obeisance profound To his Lord, He by service so loyal To a master so royal Is a lord. While his homage each day Serves to mark and display Thy glory, ’Tis Thy hand that investeth The robe on which resteth His glory O GOD, MY SUN O God, my Sun, up now and rise, I pray thee, And be as the moon to illumine my darkness: Wherefore wilt Thou play the passing wayfarer And vanish like the fleeing gazelle? When shall the bud come to blossom, And the tender grape yield its sweet savour? How long wilt Thou cast off the remnants of Joseph? I was as a lamb led to the slaughter, One man drawing me from the fold and another performing the sacrifice. The lion rose murderous against me, And the wild ass breaketh my bones. The wild boar tore me, breathing fury, Pushing westwards and northwards. Dread God, who hast stretched out the heavens, Who closest and none can open, Now at last reprove kings for my sake— For far be it from Thee to be forgetful!— Thou shalt bring forth my prisoners from the pit: For the sake of our hero-ancestor’s righteousness, And shalt cleave the crown of the woman of Uz And shave off the hair of Esau. Take the young brood and prosper them, But do not let go the mother. O restore the maiden in her beautiful freshness, And fill with moisture all that is withered. Renew the Temple and the altar And establish singing men for Thy praise; One to glow with a song of loves, And one to make melody for the chief musician. Thus wilt Thou cause the horn of the Messiah to shoot up, And I shall be wholly joyful. Judgement of the Wicked. CHAPTER XXXVIII 1. The First Parable. When the congregation of the righteous shall appear, And sinners shall be judged for their sins, And shall be driven from the face of the earth: 2. And when the Righteous One shall appear before the eyes of the righteous, Whose elect works hang upon the Lord of Spirits, And light shall appear to the righteous and the elect who dwell on the earth, Where then will be the dwelling of the sinners, And where the resting-place of those who have denied the Lord of Spirits? It had been good for them if they had not been born. 3. When the secrets of the righteous shall be revealed and the sinners judged, And the godless driven from the presence of the righteous and elect, 4. From that time those that possess the earth shall no longer be powerful and exalted: And they shall not be able to behold the face of the holy, For the Lord of Spirits has caused His light to appear On the face of the holy, righteous, and elect. 5. Then shall the kings and the mighty perish And be given into the hands of the righteous and holy. 6. And thenceforward none shall seek for themselves mercy from the Lord of Spirits For their life is at an end. Wilton OrionissisnephorusaminRaosirus Benyahamin LVIII-LXXI. The Third Parable. LVIII. The Blessedness of the Saints. CHAPTER LVIII. 1. And I began to speak the third Parable concerning the righteous and elect. 2. Blessed are ye, ye righteous and elect, For glorious shall be your lot. 3. And the righteous shall be in the light of the sun. And the elect in the light of eternal life: The days of their life shall be unending, And the days of the holy without number. 4. And they shall seek the light and find righteousness with the Lord of Spirits: There shall be peace to the righteous in the name of the Eternal Lord. 5. And after this it shall be said to the holy in heaven That they should seek out the secrets of righteousness, the heritage of faith: For it has become bright as the sun upon earth, And the darkness is past. 6. And there shall be a light that never endeth, And to a limit (lit. number) of days they shall not come, For the darkness shall first have been destroyed, [And the light established before the Lord of Spirits] And the light of uprightness established for ever before the Lord of Spirits. 1When the end comes, the kingdom of heaven will be like ten bridesmaids. They took their oil lamps and went to meet the groom. 2Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3The foolish bridesmaids took their lamps, but they didnt take any extra oil. 4The wise bridesmaids, however, took along extra oil for their lamps. 5Since the groom was late, all the bridesmaids became drowsy and fell asleep. 6At midnight someone shouted, The groom is here! Come to meet him! 7Then all the bridesmaids woke up and got their lamps ready. 8The foolish ones said to the wise ones, Give us some of your oil. Our lamps are going out. 9But the wise bridesmaids replied, We cant do that. There wont be enough for both of us. Go! Find someone to sell you some oil. 10While they were buying oil, the groom arrived. The bridesmaids who were ready went with him into the wedding hall, and the door was shut. 11Later the other bridesmaids arrived and said, Sir, sir, open the door for us! 12But he answered them, I dont even know who you are! 13So stay awake, because you dont know the day or the hour. 14The kingdom of heaven is like a man going on a trip. He called his servants and entrusted some money to them. 15He gave one man ten thousand dollars, another four thousand dollars, and another two thousand dollars. Each was given money based on his ability. Then the man went on his trip. 16The one who received ten thousand dollars invested the money at once and doubled his money. 17The one who had four thousand dollars did the same and also doubled his money. 18But the one who received two thousand dollars went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his masters money. 19After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20The one who received ten thousand dollars brought the additional ten thousand. He said, Sir, you gave me ten thousand dollars. Ive doubled the amount. 21His master replied, Good job! Youre a good and faithful servant! You proved that you could be trusted with a small amount. I will put you in charge of a large amount. Come and share your masters happiness. 22The one who received four thousand dollars came and said, Sir, you gave me four thousand dollars. Ive doubled the amount. 23His master replied, Good job! Youre a good and faithful servant! You proved that you could be trusted with a small amount. I will put you in charge of a large amount. Come and share your masters happiness. 24Then the one who received two thousand dollars came and said, Sir, I knew that you are a hard person to please. You harvest where you havent planted and gather where you havent scattered any seeds. 25I was afraid. So I hid your two thousand dollars in the ground. Heres your money! 26His master responded, You evil and lazy servant! If you knew that I harvest where I havent planted and gather where I havent scattered, 27then you should have invested my money with the bankers. When I returned, I would have received my money back with interest. 28Take the two thousand dollars away from him! Give it to the one who has the ten thousand! 29To all who have, more will be given, and they will have more than enough. But everything will be taken away from those who dont have much. 30Throw this useless servant outside into the darkness. People will cry and be in extreme pain there. 31When the Son of Man comes in his glory and all his angels are with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32The people of every nation will be gathered in front of him. He will separate them as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33He will put the sheep on his right but the goats on his left. 34Then the king will say to those on his right, Come, my Father has blessed you! Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world. 35I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger, and you took me into your home. 36I needed clothes, and you gave me something to wear. I was sick, and you took care of me. I was in prison, and you visited me. 37Then the people who have Gods approval will reply to him, Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you or see you thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you as a stranger and take you into our homes or see you in need of clothes and give you something to wear? 39When did we see you sick or in prison and visit you? 40The king will answer them, I can guarantee this truth: Whatever you did for one of my brothers or sisters, no matter how unimportant [they seemed], you did for me. 41Then the king will say to those on his left, Get away from me! God has cursed you! Go into everlasting fire that was prepared for the devil and his angels! 42I was hungry, and you gave me nothing to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me nothing to drink. 43I was a stranger, and you didnt take me into your homes. I needed clothes, and you didnt give me anything to wear. I was sick and in prison, and you didnt take care of me. 44They, too, will ask, Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or as a stranger or in need of clothes or sick or in prison and didnt help you? 45He will answer them, I can guarantee this truth: Whatever you failed to do for one of my brothers or sisters, no matter how unimportant [they seemed], you failed to do for me. 46These people will go away into eternal punishment, but those with Gods approval will go into eternal life. Gold may be traced to the Suns rays. The word gold means solar essence. The transmutation of gold does not mean the process of making gold, but does mean the process of changing gold, solar rays, into all manner of materialized forms.... Great is the reward of good works with God. Joined together in harmony, let us implore that reward from Him. The good servant 139 receives the bread of his labour with confidence; the lazy and slothful cannot look his employer in the face. It is requisite, therefore, that we be prompt in the practice of well-doing; for of Him are all things. And thus He forewarns us: “Behold, the Lord [cometh], and His reward is before His face, to render to every man according to his work.” 140 He exhorts us, therefore, with our whole heart to attend to this, 141 that we be not lazy or slothful in any good work. Let our boasting and our confidence be in Him. Let us submit ourselves to His will. Let us consider the whole multitude of His angels, how they stand ever ready to minister to His will. For the Scripture saith, “Ten thousand times ten thousand stood around Him, and thousands of thousands ministered unto Him, 142 and cried, Holy, holy, holy, [is] the Lord of Sabaoth; the whole creation is full of His glory.” 143 And let us therefore, conscientiously gathering together in harmony, cry to Him earnestly, as with one mouth, that we may be made partakers of His great and glorious promises. For [the Scripture] saith, “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which He hath prepared for them that wait for Him.” 144 Footnotes 14:139 Or, “labourer.” 14:140 Isa. xl. 10, Isa. lxii. 11; Rev. xxii. 12. 14:141 The text here seems to be corrupt. Some translate, “He warns us with all His heart to this end, that,” etc. 14:142 Dan. vii. 10. 14:143 Isa. vi. 3. 14:144 1 Cor. ii. 9. Infinite Love! Light and Love! Christ Light, Sunlight in Love! Light commune with our DNA! Our eyes are the main entrance of Light! Sunlight, Christ Light in Love! Morning, Noon and Evening! O ye who believe! when ye prepare for prayer, wash your faces, and your hands (and arms) to the elbows; rub your heads (with water); and (wash) your feet to the ankles. If ye are in a state of ceremonial impurity, bathe your whole body. But if ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have be with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands. God doth not wish to place you in a difficulty, but to make you clean, and to complete His favour to you, that ye may be grateful. (HQ: 5: 6) Infinite love Mama planet of Love! Infinite praises to the Most High YAH! INFINITE LOVE! THE LORD ASURA! THE BELOVED OF ATUM LORD ATON LORD INDRA THE SUN OF FIRE! THE BUDDHA OF CLEAR SHINING! THE TATHAGATA THE MOST AUGUSTUS! THE PRINCE OF ISRAEL! THE ISRAELITE! THE LORD OF GREAT GLORY! THE KING OF KINGS AND THE LORD OF LORDS! THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD! THE BELOVED LORD BENYAHAMIN THE BELOVED OF THE MOST YAH, THE AMIN!
