Apocalypse of Abraham 19
(Traduction française en cours — texte anglais affiché)
1
And I answered and said: Eternal, Mighty One! Wherefore hast thou willed to effect that evil should be desired in the hearts of men?
2
Since thou art angered over that which was willed by thee, against him who is doing what is unprofitable in thy counsel.
3
And He said to me: I am angered by nations and peoples on thy account and on account of thy race — thy people to be! Coming through them, for I made known to all ages before the world, to prepare for them righteous men from thy seed.
