Source (Arabic)

بر کل لازمست در احوال این مظلوم تفکّر نمایند از اوّل امر تا حین مابین احبّا و اعدا ظاهر بوده و هستیم و در احیانی که از کلّ جهات بلایا و رزایا احاطه نموده بود اهل ارض را بکمال اقتدار بافق اعلی دعوت نمودیم قلم اعلی دوست نداشته و ندارد در این مقام مصائب خود را ذکر نماید چه که البتّه مقرّبین و موحّدین و مخلصین را احزان اخذ کند انّه لهو النّاطق السّامع العلیم در اکثر ایّام بین ایادی اعدا بودیم و حال مابین حیّات ساکنیم

Shoghi Effendi Translation

Let every man observe and meditate on the conduct of this wronged One. We have, ever since the dawn of this Revelation until the present time, refused either to hide Ourself from Our enemies, or to withdraw from the companionship of Our friends. Though encompassed with a myriad griefs and afflictions, We have, with mighty confidence, summoned the peoples of the earth to the Dayspring of Glory. The Pen of the Most High is disinclined to recount, in this connection, the woes it hath suffered. To reveal them would, no doubt, plunge into sorrow the favored among the faithful, they that truly uphold the unity of God and are wholly devoted to His Cause. He, verily, speaketh the truth, and is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. Our life hath, for the most part, been spent in the midst of Our enemies. Witness how We are, at present, living in a nest of serpents.
