IV.
When the Uthras stand there in their Škīnās,
they worship and praise the great place with light without end,
(praising also Manda d-Haijē and speaking to him).


When the Uthras stand there in their Škīnās,
they worship and praise that light Tarwan, the wreath on their head.


On what shall they fix it, on what shall they hang it?
On the tree of splendor they will fix it, on it they will hang it.


And blessed be the life.

Commentary

[edit]
