הֶן־אֵ֭ל לֹ֣א יִמְאַס־תָּ֑ם וְלֹֽא־יַ֝חֲזִ֗יק בְּיַד־מְרֵעִֽים׃
Sesungguhnya, Allah tidak menolak orang yang tulus, dan Ia tidak menopang tangan orang-orang yang berbuat jahat.
Aggadat Bereshit
Chapter 28: Torah [1] And the Lord visited Sarah (Genesis 21:1). This means "Behold, God will not cast away the perfect, neither will He uphold the evil doers" (Job 8:20). "Behold, God will not cast away the perfect," refers to Abraham who suffered for many years until Sarah bore a child, yet God did not abandon him. "Neither will He uphold the evil doers," refers to Abimelech's household who were restrained and prevented from harming Abraham, as it says "For the Lord had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah" (Genesis 20:18). Rabbi Abbahu said: The Holy One, blessed be He, restrained everything that belonged to Abimelech, his wife, his slaves, his maidservants, his cattle and his flocks. How did He restrain them? He sealed their mouths from speaking, so that they would not speak about her; He blinded their eyes so that they would not gaze upon her; He deafened their ears so that they would not hear her prayer; He restrained their sexual desires so that they would not be intimate with her. From where do we know that it says "For the Lord had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah." And Scripture says: "And because of her only, he [Abraham] was blessed" (Genesis 24:1). When Abraham prayed for them, the Holy One, blessed be He, immediately healed them, as it says "And Abraham prayed unto God; and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bore children" (Genesis 20:17). The Holy One, blessed be He, said to Abraham, "You pray for others to have children, but your wife Sarah is not bearing children." Immediately, God remembered Sarah and she became pregnant. Therefore, the verse says, "Behold, God will not cast off the innocent" (Job 8:20).
