1 Set this our worship among the Immortals: be pleased with these our presents, Knower of all things.

O Priest, O God, sit Thee down before us, and first accept our gifts of oil and fatness.

2 For Thee, O Purifier, flow the drops of fatness rich in oil.

After Thy wont vouchsafe to us the choicest boon that the angels may witness.

3 O Most Excellent One, for Thee, the Sage, are drops that drip with oil.

Thou art kindled as the best of Seers. Help Thou the worship.

4 To Thee, O God, mighty and resistless, to Thee stream forth the drops of oil and fatness.

With great light art Thou come, O praised by poets! Accept our offering, O Thou Sage.

5 Fatness exceeding rich, extracted from the midst: this as our gift we offer for Thy sake.

Excellent God, the drops run down. Deal them out among the needy.
