A Prayer to God as the King, the Life, and the Rewarder.

1 Praises, and songs, and adorations do we offer to God, the Wise Lord, and to Righteousness the Best; yea, we offer and we ascribe them, and proclaim them. 2. And to Thy good Kingdom, O Wise Lord! may we attain for ever, and a good King be Thou over us; and let each man of us, and so each woman, thus abide, O Thou most beneficent of beings, and for both the worlds! 3. Thus do we render Thee, the helpful Lord, endowed with good devices, the friend of them who worship Thee, with well-adjusted worship; so mayest Thou be to us our life, and our body's vigour, O Thou most beneficent of beings, and that for both the worlds!

4 Aye, let us win long life, O Wise Lord! in Thy grace, and through Thy will may we be powerful. Mayest Thou lay hold on us to help, and long, and with salvation, O Thou most beneficent of beings!

5 Thy praisers and speakers of the holy word may we be called, O Wise Lord! so do we wish, and to this may we attain. What reward most meet for our deserving Thou hast appointed for the souls, O Wise Lord! of that do Thou bestow on us for this life, and for that of the mind. Of that reward (do Thou Thyself grant this advantage), that we may come under Thy protecting guardianship, and that of Righteousness for ever. We exalt this brave Yasna, the Yasna Haptanghaiti, the holy, the chief of worship!
