1. To the effective King in His kingdom when
My soul's awe and desire of Him transcended limits

2. He is the Choosing Doer of what He wills being done
And what He willed not, cannot come against His will

3. He is the source of deeds, having created them by His will
And if they occurred as acquisition through the act of the creation

4. He chooses what effect He sanctifies
Above the innate futility and crookedness

5. And His effect is due to His existence
Not His effect by nature

6. Nor is His effect in emulation of an agent
Nor effect from partnership or assistance

7. Nor did He act to repel or benefit Himself
Exalted, nor act out of selfishness

8. The causes were affected by Him and thus had effect
By His wisdom, the causation of cause and effect

9. And these causes that bring about His action
Are but constrained under His wisdom

10. My God, O Effecter, I complain to You of what
Has befallen me, of affliction after affliction

11. My God, so act toward me as You are worthy
In the right of Your Name, the Effecter, and remove my troubles
