Prayer for the oil

XLVIII.
In the name of life.
Manda d-Haijē went to the stars of (beautiful) appearance.
He freed the captives,
tied the unbreakable bond that is without end or number.
By the speech that came out of him from there,
all worlds were put to shame,
spoiled the works of the house,
security was given to the Sons of the great tribe of life.
He planted a plantation and descended to the Tibil.
He realized that the wickedness of the lord of the house was great against them.
When the wickedness was great against them,
the shining being looked and appeared to them from the upper fruits.
The power and the name of the Exalted One,
who is all life, revealed itself to them,
and a portion of his splendor spread over them.
Mandā d-Haijē revealed himself to all the friends of the name of Kuštā
in the place inhabited entirely by guilty people.
When the lords of the worlds beheld him,
they corrupted and failed to free themselves from their thrones.
He passed by the prisoners,
there the prisoners were freed,
and their sins and offenses were remitted to them.
Yes, they were released to leave their bodies.
When the lords of the house saw him,
they disappeared from their ranks and could not get there.
The name of Abathur rested on them,
the name of Jōzaṭaq Mandā d-Haijē fulfilled and revealed to the friends of his name.
On the souls of this ascent also rest his name.
And the life is victorious.

Commentary

[edit]
This is the saying of the mass.
Read it over pure oil in etivas [pure],
place it before you and read the mass.
