I said, 'Eternal Mighty One, why allow it to be so and then reveal the knowledge of it?'
2
He answered, 'Hear, Avraham, and answer Me. Why did your father Terach not listen to your voice and cease from his idolatry?'
3
I said, 'Because he did not choose to listen to me, and I did not choose to follow his counsel.'
4
He said, 'The counsel of your father was within him, and your counsel is within you. So also My counsel is within My own will, prepared for coming days before you know them or see what shall occur.
5
Therefore look again and see what shall happen among your Seed.'
