Translated Text:

I, who am attuning my soul
to Good Mind,
know that the actions
done for the Wise Lord have their rewards.
As long as I continue to have the will and the power,
I shall teach others to strive after Righteousness.

Commentary:

Working with good mind, Zarathushtra realizes that a good action has a good consequence—a reward. He determines to work to the best of his ability to teach and preach Truth to others.

Pondering Point:

“Attune yourself with the good mind, show others righteous behavior, and feel sure you will be rewarded.”
