“Now a word was brought to me stealthily, my ear received the whisper of it.
“Lo, my eye has seen all this, my ear has heard and understood it.
Lo, these are but the outskirts of his ways; and how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?”
In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, while they slumber on their beds,
Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this: that power belongs to God;
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood.
