The Evil Attributes
As the Creator meticulously
Watches over all the details
Of His Creation,
Not letting anyone
Destroy anything He owns,
But turn it around
And reform it.
Will vanish from the earth,
And all the evil attributes in the world
Will remain on the earth.
The evil things exist,
And comprise the number of
Degrees of development
They must undergo
Until they are fully ripened.
And then
Those evil attributes will
Turn themselves around,
And become good and helpful attributes,
Just as the Creator had planned from the beginning.
This is akin to a fruit
On the branch of a tree
Awaiting and counting the days
And the months
It must endure
Until it is fully ripe.
At that time, its savor and sweetness
Will be revealed to every person.
