Translation:Qolasta/Prayer 25


 * XXV.
 * In the name of life.
 * When the Jordan of living water was granted
 * to Sām-Smir, the great radiance of life,
 * 992,000 myriad of Uthras, sons of light,
 * opened their mouths and praised Mandā d-Haijē:


 * Praised be Mandā d-Haijē,
 * Praised be Jāwar-Zīwā,
 * praised be Bihrām and Rām,
 * praised be Tarwan the light,
 * praised be Nbat the great first radiance,
 * praised be Nsab and Anan-Nsab,
 * praised be Sar and Sarwan,
 * praised be that great mighty Mānā,
 * praised be that great face of glory,
 * Praised be all that dwelling of the blessed,
 * Praised be all the paths and ways of the mighty,
 * Praised be all the mighty, upper worlds of light,
 * Praised be all those hidden Škīnās,
 * Praised be that voice, the power, the speech,
 * and the Commandment that come from the house of Abathur,
 * praised be the high Abathur,
 * praised be the 10,000 Uthras that stand before Abathur,
 * blessed are the Uthras Šilmai and Nidbai, the guardians of the Jordan,
 * blessed be our father Hibil, Šitil and Anōš, the head of the whole tribe.


 * Banish and remove from me NN and from these souls who have descended to the Jordan and have been baptized,
 * the fear, the dread and the terror of the demons, dews, south,..., spirits, amulet spirits, liliths, gods, angels, temple spirits, chapel spirits and idols
 * that the 7 planets, the lords of the house, let loose against the souls in this world.
 * Manda d-Haijē! Fix your eyes on your friends, your scions and your disciples.
 * Look upon us who stand in this place, which is all of evil,
 * and at the great gate, which is all of (worldly) royalty.
 * We stand among evil ones
 * and dwell among sinners.
 * Deliver us from the world made up entirely of sinners,
 * and from the evil sorcery of the sons of Adam and Eve.
 * What we have done, forgive us,
 * and what we do, forgive us.
 * Redeemer of sins and trespasses,
 * remit to us our follies, our stumbles, and our errors.
 * If you do not forgive our sins, offenses, follies, stumbles and errors,
 * no one stands before you, Mandā d-Haijē, sinless.
 * Life, receive your prayer from the hidden place
 * and establish bliss on your light.


 * In the name of Šarhabēl, the great, first radiance.
 * The words of Šarhabēl, the great, first radiance, are erected
 * on all who love the name of Kuštā, and on me NN.
 * The darkness is stopped and the light is lifted up.


 * And praised be the life.
