Translation:Qolasta/Prayer 9


 * IX.
 * Lifting up the eyes,
 * lifting up the waves of the countenance
 * toward the place that is all
 * gates of splendor, light and glory,
 * splendor and beauty,
 * splendor and honor,
 * toward the dwelling place,
 * which is all luminaries,


 * I adore, glorify, and praise
 * the mighty alien life,
 * the second life,
 * the third life,
 * Jōfin-Jōfafin,
 * Sām,
 * the well-kept Mānā,
 * the vine that is all life,
 * and the great tree that is all healings.
 * I adore, glorify, and praise
 * the dear, well-kept place,
 * the hidden, guarded Mānās,
 * the Lord of greatness from the hidden place, from a hidden Place,
 * Pihtā,
 * ... Kuštā
 * and faith.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * Sām-Smīr,
 * the great Splendor of the first life,
 * the son of the great, first life,
 * who pondered and realized and desires His own.
 * Above the waves of the water rests his Škīnā.
 * The Kannā of the souls that came out of him will rejoice and embrace him
 * on the final day when the souls depart from their bodies,
 * and they will ascend and behold the outer ether and the light dwelling.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * the great shining beings
 * and the mighty, great light beings.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * Piriawis,
 * the great Jordan of the first life, who is all healings.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * Jōšamīn the Pure,
 * who dwells by the treasures of water and by the mighty upper springs of light.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * the life
 * that came from life
 * and the Kuštā
 * that was from time immemorial in the beginning.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * Jōkabar-Zīwā,
 * the messenger of life and the word of the first men of proven righteousness.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * Abathur,
 * the ancient, high, hidden, kept, who is hidden and kept high above.
 * At the gate of the house of life a throne is founded for him.
 * He sits there, while the scales are set up before him, weighing works and reward.
 * He sees and recognizes what the worlds and aeons do.
 * I worship, glorify and praise
 * Mandā d-Haijē, the Lord of healings,
 * the man whom life called and commissioned to heal the tribe of souls.
 * He strips them of their darkness and clothes them with light.
 * He lifts them up and shows them the essence of the great peace of life,
 * in the place where the spirits and souls of our ancestors dwell,
 * clothed with splendor, covered with light,
 * while the great peace of life is before them.
 * I adore, glorify and praise
 * Šilmai and Nidbai,
 * the two Uthras, the messengers of the Mandā d-Haijē
 * who are appointed over the great Jordan of life,
 * who perform the great baptism, of light.


 * And life is victorious.
