Proclamation of the messenger of light to the believers.

From the place of light I came forth,

from you, bright dwelling.

I come to feel the hearts,

to measure and test all minds,

to see in whose heart I dwell,

in whose mind I rest.

Whoever thinks of me, of him I think;

whoever speaks my name, his name I speak.

Whoever prays my prayer from the earth,

his prayer I pray from the place of light.

Whoever prays my prayer and my praise,

for him I pray (a prayer) rich and great.

I came and found

the truthful and believing hearts.

When I was not dwelling among them,

yet my name lay upon their mouth.

I took them and led them up to the angels

whom Jokabar created.

I said to them:

"Perfect ones! Pleasant is your fragrance,

and splendour rests among you."

Praised be You, my Lord,

who do not condemn the perfect.

And the Living God is victorious.
