Source (Arabic)
وفي كلّ يوم تجدّدون ظلمكم كما قمتم عليّ في تلك الأيّام بعد الّذي ما دخلت نفسي في هذه الأمور وما كنت مخالفا لكم ولا مع ارضا لأمركم إلى أن جعلتموني مسجونا في هذه الأرض البعيد، ولكن فاعلم ثمّ أيقن بأنّ ذلك لن يبدّل أمر الله وسننه كما لم يبدّل من قبل عن كلّ ما اكتسبت أيديكم وأيدي المشركين،
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Ye perpetrate every day a fresh injustice, and treat Me as ye treated Me in times past, though I never attempted to meddle with your affairs. At no time have I opposed you, neither have I rebelled against your laws. Behold how ye have, at the last, made Me a prisoner in this far-off land! Know for a certainty, however, that whatever your hands or the hands of the infidels have wrought will never, as they never did of old, change the Cause of God or alter His ways.
