Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

ὅτι τὸ μωρὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ σοφώτερον τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἐστίν, καὶ τὸ ἀσθενὲς τοῦ Θεοῦ ἰσχυρότερον τῶν ἀνθρώπων.

Is this: to submit
Of our own free will to their sovereignty
We should do just that,
Since only in the illusion of freedom
Does freedom exist.
