Source (Persian)
قل يا معشر البيان انصفوا انصفوا ثمّ انصفوا انصفوا و لا تکونوا من الّذين ذکروا مظهر امر اللّه فی اللّيالی و الايّام و لمّا اتی بالفضل و اشرق افق الظّهور افتوا عليه بما ناح به سکّان الملکوت و الجبروت و الّذين طافوا حول ارادة اللّه العليم الحکيم *
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Say: O people of the Bayán! Be fair, be fair; and again, be fair, be fair. Be ye not of them who have made mention of the Manifestation of the Cause of God in the daytime and in the night season, and who, when He, through His grace, appeared, and when the Horizon of Revelation was illumined, pronounced against Him such a judgment as hath provoked the lamentations of the inmates of the Kingdom and of the Realm of Glory, and of such as have circled about the will of God, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.
