Prayer 44

Prayer for the Mambuha

Mark Lidzbarski3807168Mandaïsche Liturgien — Prayer 441920Wikisource
XLIV.
Biriawiš, the container of living water,
Nbat, the first sprout, the great outflow of splendor from the side of life.
Abundant is the life for the souls of this ascent.
And praised be the life.

Commentary

[edit]
This is a piece for drinking.
When you read about (several) souls,
read as it is written, when the soul is one, say "for this soul of the NN".
