You should realize that I regard you as the honest messenger; therefore, be careful. O Jesus, I have created you from My words, and Mary gave birth of you according to My order. I sent to her Gabriel; My spirit and the honest among My angels. Thus, you could walk on this earth livelily. All that was recorded in My eternal knowledge. 23.
O Jesus, if I become angry with you, the satisfaction of anyone else will not be useful for you, and if I am satisfied with you, the dissatisfaction of anyone else will not harm you. O Jesus, mention Me secretly. Refer to me among your people and I will refer to you among groups that are better than human beings. 25. O Jesus, pray to Me as if you are helpless drowned. O Jesus, do not swear by Me falsely lest, My (Divine) Throne will be shaken.
This worldly life is short in period and long in (false) hope. I have an abode that is more favorable than whatever they collect. O Jesus, what will you do when I will take out a record of only the truth and you will confess of your secrets that your were concealing and deeds that you were doing? 28. O Jesus, say to the unjust Israelites: You have cleaned your faces but sullied your hearts. Are you deceived against Me? Or are you challenging Me?
You are odorizing yourselves for people of this world while your interiors are same as stinky carrions, as if you are dead people! 29. O Jesus, tell them: clip your nails against having ill-gotten property and shut your hearings against listening to obscenity. Come to Me with your hearts; I do not want your appearances. O Jesus, be happy for the good deed (the you act), for it pleases Me. Weep for the evildoing (that you commit), for it is vice.
Do not do to others the things that you hate to be done to you. If one slaps your right cheek, give him the left one. Curry favor with Me as much as possible. Neglect the ignorant ones. O Jesus, be the guide of the good-doers , take part in their deeds, and be their witness. Say to the unjust Israelites: O comrades of evil, keep on doing so and I will metamorphose you into apes and pegs. 32. O Jesus, say to the unjust Israelites: wisdom weeps from its fear of Me while you are guffawing openly?
Have you received a pledge of acquittal from Me? Do you enjoy immunity against My agony? Or do you take no notice of My punishment? I swear by Myself, I will make you the best lesson for the coming (generations).
