departure
was
considered
as
misfortune, and their departure
from us as being their destruction;
yet they are at Peace.

And thus, although

in mankinds view
they were punished, their Hope is
Immortal.

And

although chastened in a few

things, Great Kindness will be
granted to them for God tested them
and found them worthy of Himself.

He

tested them like gold in a furnace,

and accepted them as a Whole Burnt
Offering.

And,

at the time of their Visitation,

they will shine forth, and they will
run about like sparks through straw.

They

will judge Nations and rule over

people, and the Lord shalt Reign
over them unto the Ages.
