Prüfungen sind, von Gott her, Reinigungen — Der Mensch muss sich in Gott erneuern können Und so vertiefen; Rom ward nicht gebaut In einem Tag; man muss sich selber kennen.
Und: Hasse deine Seele, steht geschrieben; Nur was in dir von Gott ist, kannst du lieben.

Les épreuves, venant de Dieu, sont des purifications — L’homme doit pouvoir se renouveler en Dieu Et ainsi s’approfondir ; Rome ne fut pas bâtie En un jour ; il faut se connaître soi-même.

Es kann geschehn, dass jemand Dummes betet — Die Antwort kommt, jedoch sie kommt vom Bösen; Denn wenn der Höchste keine Antwort gibt, Dann treibt der Satan sein verruchtes Wesen.

Die Engel sind der Gottheit Fähigkeiten Im Himmel und auf Erden; Willensstrahlen, Die alles so bewirken, wie Gott will, Und so das große Bild des Weltalls malen.
Ein Engel, heißt es, kommt auf jede Seele; Der Höchste ist vor Gottes Thron gestellt. Und jeder Engel leuchtet tausendfach — Ein Engelskönig kommt auf jede Welt.

Les anges sont les facultés de la Divinité Au Ciel et sur la terre ; des rayons de volonté Qui accomplissent tout comme Dieu le veut, En peignant ainsi la grande image de l’Univers.
Un ange, dit-on, correspond à chaque âme ; l’Ange suprême est placé devant le trône de Dieu. Et chaque ange brille de mille éclats — Un roi des anges correspond à chaque monde.

Irgendwo in der Bibel ist die Rede Von finstern Geistern, die die Engel spielen, Um Heilige und Fromme zu verführen; Nur wenige betrügen sie von vielen.
Denn alle Dinge haben ihre Zeichen; Vor der Erkenntnis muss der Trug entweichen.

Quelque part dans la Bible, il est question D’esprits ténébreux qui jouent aux anges Pour séduire les saints et les pieux ; D’un grand nombre, ils n’en trompent que peu.
Car toute chose porte son propre signe ; Devant la Connaissance, l’illusion doit s’enfuir.
