Source (Arabic)
(٦٥) ﴿ يَا ابْنَ الإِنْسانِ ﴾
عَظَمَتِي عَطِيَّتِي إِلَيْكَ، وَكِبْرِيائِي رَحْمَتِي عَلَيْكَ، وَما يَنْبَغِي لِنَفْسِي لا يُدْرِكُهُ أَحَدٌ وَلَنْ تُحْصِيَهُ نَفْسٌ؛ قَدْ أَخْزَنْتُهُ فِي خَزائِنِ سِرِّي وَكَنائِزِ أَمْرِي تَلَطُّفًا لِعِبادِي وَتَرَحُّمًا لِخَلْقِي.
Shoghi Effendi Translation
(65) O SON OF MAN!
My majesty is My gift to thee, and My grandeur the token of My mercy unto thee. That which beseemeth Me none shall understand, nor can anyone recount. Verily, I have preserved it in My hidden storehouses and in the treasuries of My command, as a sign of My loving-kindness unto My servants and My mercy unto My people.
