Song 4.1 (Yasna 31.1) |
“The Zarathushtrian Doctrine is novel, progressive, and aims to guide the wrongful toward the Laws of Existence and reaffirms that the ethical are on the right path.”Keeping the two principles of Yours in mind,
we shall teach the hitherto unheard words
to those who destroy the righteous world
by their wrongful doctrines.
No doubt, the two principles will prove the best for those
who are devoted to the Wise One.

Song 4.2 (Yasna 31.2) |
“A novice, although wise, may still benefit from sound guidance. Zarathushtra's divine experience provides that advantage to any person who desires to receive his message.”Since it is not easy for the soul
to find the better course,
I, whom the Wise Lord knows,
come to you all as the leader of the two parties,
so that we may all live
in accordance with righteousness.

“True happiness is attainable by all, but it is only gained through enlightenment.”The happiness You grant, has been promised
to the two parties through Your mental fire and righteousness.
It is a matter of principle for the discerning.
Wise One, for our knowledge,
speak with the very words of Your mouth.
It will help me guide all the living to choose aright.

“When one desires the Universal Law, aligning with the wise and seeking enlightenment will pave the way to gain serenity and the strength to eliminate wrongful deeds.”When righteousness is to be invoked,
may the wise lords
be with reward and serenity.
I seek through my best mind
the powerful dominion for my people,
so that by promoting it, we can overcome wrong.

“Increased enlightenment is necessary to wisely foresee the potential outcomes of future events and to know what to embark on and what to avoid.”Speak to me so that I can discern
what has been made better with righteousness,
and know and realize through good mind
what has been granted to me as a seer.
Also, Wise God, the things
that will and will not happen.

who will propagate my true thought-provoking message.
It leads to righteousness
for wholeness and immortality.
Thus the dominion of the Wise One will,
through good mind, increase for him.

that the lights emanate with bliss.

as the true creator of righteousness
and the Lord of life's actions.

Song 4.9 (Yasna 31.9) |
“A state of freedom, a serene atmosphere, and wisdom help one to make the right choices.”I also realized, Wise Lord,
that serenity is Yours,
and O Creator of the Living World,
that wisdom of mind is Yours,
which has given the world the choice
to go either to a settled person, or to the one who is not.

Song 4.10 (Yasna 31.10) |
“A prosperous settled lifestyle is more conducive to righteous behavior and is worthy of leadership, whereas an unsettled life breeds deceit.”Of the two, it has chosen
the prospering settler
and the promoter of good mind
as its righteous lord.
Wise One, the deceitful nomad
has not shared in this good tradition.
