Thunder, Perfect Mind 4

1It is the utterance according to prudence of my seeking, and it is the knowledge of my searching. But I am she who exists in all fears and in courage.

2Do not curse my boast. But I am she who exists in every fear and the strength in trembling. I am she who...

3Do not hate my obedience, and do not set your love upon my self-control.

4I am she who is weak, and I am strong.

5Why do you hate my fear, and curse my pride?

6I am she who is found in those who are afraid, and I am strength in trembling.

7For why do you hate me, O Greeks? Because I am a barbarian? And I am the knowledge of the Greek and the barbarian. I am the judgment.

8I am without sense, and I am wise. I am the knowledge of the Greek and of the barbarian.

9I am she — the Greek and the barbarian; I am she who will be manifest in Egypt.

10Greeks and barbarians, I am the one whose image is great in Egypt, and the one who has no image among the barbarians. I am she whom they hated in every place, and she whom they loved.
