Prayer for the Pihta

Mark Lidzbarski3807165Mandaïsche Liturgien — Prayer 421920Wikisource
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.
