Quatrain 17
Whatever wealth and fortune fate hands out,
don't waste your mind wondering why it's given.
The giver isn't giving from our purse;
the kingdom is God's, and it's his to choose whom he favors.

رباعی شمارهٔ ۱۷
هر دولت و مکنت که قضا میبخشد
در وهم نیاید که چرا میبخشد
بخشنده نه از کیسهٔ ما میبخشد
ملک آن خداست تا کرا میبخشد
