1 “Observe how the trees cover themselves with green leaves and bear fruit. Therefore give heed and know with regard to all His works, and recognise how He that lives forever has made them so.
2 “And all His works go on from year to year forever, and all the tasks which they accomplish for Him, and their tasks do not change, but according to how Elohim has ordained, so it is done.
3 “And see, how the sea and the rivers in the same way accomplish and do not change their tasks from His Commandments.
4 “But you, you have not been steadfast, nor done the Commandments of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, but you have turned away and spoken proud and harsh words with your impure mouths against His greatness. Oh, you hard-hearted! You shall find no peace.
5 “Therefore you shall loathe your days, and the years of your life shall perish, and the years of your destruction shall be multiplied in eternal loathing, and you shall find no compassion.
6 “In those days you shall make your names an eternal loathing unto all the righteous, and by you, all who curse shall curse, and all the sinners and wicked shall loathe by you, and for you, the wicked, there shall be a curse. And all shall rejoice, and there shall be forgiveness of sins, and every compassion and peace and patience – there shall be salvation unto them – a pleasant light. And for all of you sinners there shall be no salvation, but on you all a curse shall abide.
7 “But for the elect there shall be light and joy and peace, and they shall inherit the earth.
8 “And then there shall be given wisdom to the elect, and they shall all live and never again sin, either through wickedness or through pride, but they who are wise shall be humble.
9 “And they shall not transgress again, nor shall they sin all the days of their ḥai, nor shall they die of anger or wrath, but they shall complete the number of the days of their ḥai. And their lives shall be increased in peace, and the years of their joy shall be multiplied, in eternal gladness and peace, all the days of their life.”
