     אַחַר כָּךְ אָמַר הַכּוּזָרִי בְלִבּוֹ, אֶשְׁאַל אֱדוֹם וְיִשְׁמָעִאל, כִּי אֶחָד מִשְּׁנֵי הַמַּעֲשִׂים הוּא הַנִּרְצֶה מֵאֵין סָפֵק.

     After this the Khazar said to himself, I will ask the Christians and the Muslims, for one of these two is undoubtedly God's will.

     (literally, “After this the Khazar said in his heart, I will ask Edom and Ishmael, for one of these two actions is that which is wanted, without a doubt.”)
