Translation:Qolasta/Prayer 42


 * XLII.
 * I adore, glorify and praise that secret, first speech
 * which Jāwar gave away in secret.
 * He expounded it and explained it,
 * and by it he set up the lamp of life.
 * Jāwar said:
 * "Enlightenment and praise took place.
 * Jewelry came and settled over her (the speech's) own Škīnā.
 * Splendor and light came and set up before her.
 * Jewelry and enlightenment came and settled at her right hand".
 * Life desires to behold the image of Jāwar-Zīwā in its splendor,
 * to perform prayer and praise
 * which it had called out to Šilmai and Nidbai,
 * the two Uthras, the messengers of the Mandā d-Haijē.
 * Jāwar said,
 * "Any Nāṣōraean who recites this hidden prayer 7 times a day
 * will be forgiven 7 sins a day."
 * Life stands firm in its Škīnā,
 * life is victorious.
