(14) Yea, as the man enlightened (in Thy law), and who has possessions, gives to his friend, (so give Ye) me, O Great Creator ! Thy rejoicing and abounding grace, when through Thy sovereign Power, and from (the motives of Thy cause of) Righteous Order, I stand forth to go out to , or to arouse, the chiefs of Thy (pure) proclamation, with all those (others) who recite Thy well-remembered Mãthra word.

(521) 1224 To say: He who journeys over the sea, the messenger; he who journeys over the sea, the messenger 1224 it is a r-gander, who brings himself; it is a st-goose, who brings herself; 1224 it is a ng-bull, who brings himself. 1225 N. flies, as a cloud, like a heron; 1225 thou fliest low (?) like the father of a `-heron. 1225 N. goes off 1225 to these his fathers, who are over (chief of) Pdw-s; 1226 N. brings his bread which cannot mould, 1226 his beer which cannot sour. 1226 N. eats this his one bread alone; 1226 N. gives it not to one at his back; 1226 he rescues it from the knm.t-bird.

(15) 'That is the world for the sacrificer! I (the sacrificer) shall go thither, when this life is over. Take this! Cast back the bolt!' Having said this, he rises.

(3) (Yea, let that joy-creating one) be his possession through the Righteous Order (which he helps to bring, that living sign) which (the most valiant citizen) may give to him (at once reward and charge), and in accordance with Thy Sovereign Authority. (May that heroic settler grant him this gift) he who may make the (last imperilled) farm to flourish in the vigour of Thy blest prosperity, the tract which lies the nearest (to the fields) which our foeman holds as his .

(5) But he, O Mazda! is our abundance and our fatness , who (will yet dare these unbelieving foes) and guard the Faith (against that envious Wrath ), and with the Good Mind's power. For every man of Piety is a wise citizen in accordance with the holy Order, and so are all who are (in truth) within Thy Realm, O Lord!

(6) 'I (the sacrificer) shall go thither, when this life is over. Take this! (he says, in offering the libation.) Cast back the bolt!' Having said this, he rises. For him the Vasus fulfil the morning-oblation.

(5) Come forth to the bliss [47] towards which we are bound

(10) 'I (the sacrificer) shall go thither, when this life is over. Take this! Cast back the bolt!' Having said this, he rises. For him the Rudras fulfil the noon-oblation.

(15) For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

(16) (And to the Hvôgvas would I likewise speak.) Thou Frashaostra Hvôgva (whom I see) ; go thou (forth) with the generous helpers , with those whom we are praying for as for salvation to the land. Go thou where Piety joins hand in hand with the Righteous Order, where are the wished-for Realms of Good Mind, where Mazda in His most honoured home abides,

(337) He whom God will not bring out of (the) body, let him not burden himself.

(2) (And if Thy guardian is verily to save our wealth) how shall he (obtain, and by what means shall he) seek after that joy-creating Kine (who is the living symbol of our peace )? (How shall that man obtain his wish) who shall desire to see her provided with pastures for (the welfare of) this land? (That only way is righteousness.) Do Thou then grant me lands (so would I ask of Thee) which live in justice in the many splendours of the sun, and lands which openly thus live, and which are to be sought and gained by me (as conquests for the cause). Give Thou this gift!

(98) And now let us do what we purposed: For we have gathered silver, 9d And many are the husbandmen in our houses." 9e And our granaries are (brim) full as with water,

(13) I am he who giveth or taketh according to thy behest

(205) 120 To say: O ye who preside over food, ye who are attached to plentifulness (gb) 120 commend N. to Ftk.t, the cup-bearer of R`, that he may commend him to R` himself, 120 that R` may commend him to the chiefs of the provisions of this year, 120 that they may seize and give him, that they may take and give him barley, spelt, bread, beer. 121 a. For as to N., it is his father who gives, to him; it is R` who gives to him barley, spelt, bread, beer. 121 For he (N.) is indeed the great bull which smote Kns.t. 121 For to N. indeed belong the five portions of bread, liquid, cake, in the mansion, 121 of which three are in heaven with R`, and two on earth with the Ennead. 122 For he is one who is unbound, he is indeed set free; for he is one who is seen, he is one who is indeed observed. 122 O R`, he (N.) is better to-day than yesterday. 123 N. has copulated with Mw.t; N. has kissed Sw-.t; 123 N. has united with Nbw.t. 123 N. has copulated with his beloved, deprived of tbtb (grain?, seed?) and of ss. 123 But as to the beloved of N., she gives bread to N.; 123 she did well by him in that day.

(9) For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

(10) Whoever, man or woman, shall give to me those (gifts) of life which Thou hast known as best, O Mazda! and as a holy blessing through (Thy) Righteous Order, a throne (established) with (Thy) Good Mind, (with these I shall go forth; yea, those) whom I shall (accompany and so) incite , to the homage of such as You (on earth), forth to the Judge's Bridge (itself) with all of them shall I lead on (at last).

(206) 123 To say: O ye who preside over food, ye who are attached to plentifulness, 1239. commend N. to Ftk.t, the cup-bearer of R`, that he may commend N. to R` himself, 123 that R` may commend N. to the chiefs of the provisions. 123 That which he (R`) bites, he gives to N.; that which he nibbles, he gives to N., 123 that N. may sleep and be well every day.

(11) The desires of all of you have been granted by God; Arise, walk without pain or affliction, Acknowledge the mercy and beneficence of God!" Then all, as camels whose feet are shackled, When you loose their feet in the road, Straightway rush in joy and delight to the halting-place, How many afflictions caused by thyself to thyself Hast thou escaped through these princes of the faith? How long that lameness of thine was thy steed! How seldom was thy soul void of sorrow and grief!

(508) 1107 To say: He ascends, who ascends; N. ascends. 1107 Let the lady of Buto rejoice; let the heart of her who dwells in el-K�b be glad 1107 the day that N. ascends there in the place of (or, as representative of) R`. 1108 N. has trodden down for himself thy splendour, 1108 as stairs under his feet, 1108 that N. may ascend thereon to his mother, the living uraeus which is on the head of R`. 1109 Her heart has pity for him; she gives her breast to him, that he may suck it. 1109 "My son," says she, "take to thee my breast, that thou mayest suck it," says she, 1109 "since thou comest not on every one of thy days." 1110 Heaven speaks, the earth quakes; the gods, of Heliopolis shudder 1110 at the voice of the wdn.t-offering (made) before N. 1111 His mother has nourished him-she of Bubastis; 1111 she who dwells in el-K�b has reared him; 1111 she who dwells in Buto has given him her arm. 1112 Behold, he is come; behold, he is come; 1112 behold, N. is come, for life and joy, 1112 and he makes his repast on figs 1112 and on wine which is in the divine vineyard. 1113 The chef who is beside him, he prepares a repast of it for him. 1113 N. runs; his herdsman runs; 1113 his sweetness is the sweetness of Horus; his fragrance is the fragrance of Horus. 1114 To heaven, to heaven, together with the gods of the house of the lion and the falcon; 1114 to heaven, together with the gods of the house of the lion and the falcon, 1114 those at my side accompanying me! 1115 So says Geb, as he seizes N. by his arm, 1115 and as, he guides him through the portals of heaven. 1115 The god is on his throne; it is well that the god is on his throne. 1116 Satis has washed him 1116 with her four bt-pitchers from Elephantin�. 1116 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1116 He is come to the Ennead, to heaven, that he may eat of its bread. 1117 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1117 He is come to the Ennead, to the earth, that he may eat of its bread. 1117 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1117 He is come to the dnddndr-boat. 1118 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1118 He is come to these his two mothers, the two vultures, 1118 They of the long hair and hanging breasts, 1118 who are on the hill of . 1119 They draw their breasts over the mouth of N., 1119 but they do not wean him for ever.
