Translated Text:
This I beg You, Wise Lord, to grant Ferashaushtra
the best happy union with righteousness.
And give it to my people in Your good dominion.
We shall be Your messengers forever.
Commentary:
Zarathushtra prays for divine blessings to come to his trainee Ferashaoshtra and others. He prays for their union with righteousness and in the good divine dominion and declares that he and his companions will continue to be the messengers of the Divine Message forever.
Pondering Point:
“Advocating for wisdom, justice, and truth in the world is being a messenger of Ahura Mazda.”
