Translation:Qolasta/Oxford Collection/Part 1/Prayer 20


 * XX.
 * In the name of the great life
 * be glorified the holy light.


 * In the beginning I went out in a cloud,
 * from you, shining home.
 * In the beginning I went out in a cloud,
 * from the building that the great (life) built.
 * From the building, which the great one had built,
 * I came, my planter had planted me.
 * I came, I was planted by my planter,
 * according to the advice, which he cultivated with the great (life).
 * According to the advice, which he cultivated with the great one,
 * he sent me to build a house.
 * I was to build a structure
 * for the good, the true, faithful men.
 * I built, I built it
 * and erected it on top of the cloud.
 * I planted in it
 * plants of life, true, believing men.


 * I command my builder:
 * Direct your eyes to my plants.
 * Turn your eyes on my plants,
 * so that they do not lie there sleeping,
 * and the good forget what they were ordered to do.
 * Lest they sleep,
 * lest they lie down,
 * lest the good forget what they have been commanded.
 * Lest they forget me,
 * and refuse come upon them.
 * Take heed, my brethren,
 * take heed, my friends,
 * take heed, my brethren,
 * of the vain Jesus Christ,
 * of him who perverts the figures
 * and changes the words of my mouth.
 * If you take care, my brothers,
 * if you take care, my friends,
 * if you take care, my brothers,
 * if you take care when you leave your body,
 * I will be a helper for you,
 * a helper and a support for you
 * from the place of darkness
 * to the place of light.


 * You were victorious, Mandā d-Haijē,
 * and helped all the friends of your name to victory.
