Through the hard grinding of their servitude, the ribs of this countless people are being broken to pieces.
Endless endeavours are being made in order that this great nation by losing, as an inevitable result of this subjection, its moral, intellectual and physical power, its wealth, its self-reliance, and all other qualities, may be turned into the condition of the beasts of burden or be wholly extinguished.
Why, oh Indians, are you losing heart, at the sight of many obstacles in your path, to make a stand against this unrighteousness?
Fear not, oh Indians.

God will not remain inactive at the sight of such unrighteousness in His kingdom.
He will keep His word.

Placing firm reliance on the promise of God, invoke His power, and He will descend in your midst to destroy unrighteousness.

Do not be afraid.
