Protect me, O my God, through the potency of Thy transcendent and
all-sufficing glory and by the hosts of the heavens and the earth,
inasmuch as in no one can I wholly place my trust but in Thee and no
refuge is there but Thee.
Thou art God, my Lord, Thou knowest my needs, Thou seest my state and art
well aware of what hath befallen me by reason of Thy decree, and of the
earthly sufferings I have endured by Thy leave and as a token of Thy
bounty and favour.
"The glory of glories and the most resplendent light rest ..."
The glory of glories and the most resplendent light rest upon Thee, O my
God. Thy majesty is so transcendent that no human imagination can reach it
and Thy consummate power is so sublime that the birds of men's hearts and
minds can never attain its heights. All beings acknowledge their
powerlessness to praise Thee as beseemeth Thy station. Immeasurably
exalted art Thou. No one can glorify Thy Being, or fathom the evidences of
Thy bounty as it exists in Thine inmost Essence, since Thou alone knowest
Thyself as Thou art in Thyself.
I yield praise unto Thee, O Lord our God, for the bounty of having called
into being the realm of creation and invention--a praise which shineth
resplendent through the potency of Thine inspiration which none other but
Thee can befittingly appraise. I glorify Thee moreover and render Thee
thanks as beseemeth Thine awe-inspiring presence and the glory of Thine
overpowering majesty, for this sublime blessing, this wondrous sign which
is manifest in Thy kingdoms of Revelation and Creation.
