1 Give heed to nought besides, O friends; so shall no sorrow trouble you. Praise only God the Mighty when the offering is made, and say your praises repeatedly:

2 Even Him, the Eternal, like a bull who rushes down, the conqueror of men, bounteous like a cow; Him who is the cause of both, of enmity and of peace, to both sides most munificent.

3 Although these men in sundry ways invoke Thee to obtain Thine aid, be this our prayer, addressed, O God, to Thee, Thine exaltation every day.

4 Those skilled in song, O Bountiful One, among these men overcome with might the songs of the foe. Come hither, bring us strength in many a varied form, most near, that it may succour us.
