Accordingly, this translation does not claim complete encirclement of the original meaning, nor does it claim to be a substitute for it; it is an honest effort aiming to bring the text closer to the reader and open the door for contemplation, while maintaining its accuracy and spirit as much as possible. I hope the gracious reader bears in mind that some deep meanings may be perceived through intuition and the general context more than through the word alone. I ask God that there be benefit in this effort, and that He grants success in what serves truth and knowledge.
