May Ahura Mazda be rejoiced!.... Ashem Vohu: Holiness is the best of all good.... I confess myself a worshipper of Mazda, a follower of Zarathushtra, one who hates the Daevas and obeys the laws of Ahura; For sacrifice, prayer, propitiation, and glorification unto [Havani], the holy and master of holiness.... Unto Mount Ushi-darena, made by Mazda, the seat of holy happiness; unto the kingly Glory, made by Mazda; unto that Glory that cannot be forcibly seized, made by Mazda, Be propitiation, with sacrifice, prayer, propitiation, and glorification. Yatha ahu vairyo: The will of the Lord is the law of holiness....

The first mountain that rose up out of the earth, O Spitama Zarathushtra! was the Haraiti Barez. That mountain stretches all along the shores of the land washed by waters towards the east. The second mountain was Mount Zeredho, outside Mount Manusha: this mountain too stretches all along the shores of the land washed by waters towards the east.

For its brightness and glory, I will offer it a sacrifice worth being heard, namely, unto the awful kingly Glory. Unto the awful kingly Glory we offer up the libations, the Haoma and meat, the baresma, the wisdom of the tongue, the holy spells, the speech, the deeds, the libations, and the rightly-spoken words. Yenhe hatam: All those beings of whom Ahura Mazda....

So that they may restore the world, which will (thenceforth) never grow old and never die, never decaying and never rotting, ever living and ever increasing, and master of its wish, when the dead will rise, when life and immortality will come, and the world will be restored at its wish;

19. 12  
When the creation will grow deathless, - the prosperous creation of the Good Spirit, - and the Druj shall perish, though she may rush on every side to kill the holy beings; she and her hundredfold brood shall perish, as it is the will of the Lord.

19. 15  
That belongs to the Amesha-Spentas, the bright ones, whose looks perform their wish, tall, quickly coming to do, strong, lordly, who are undecaying and holy;

19. 16  
Who are all seven of one thought, who are all seven of one speech, who are all seven of one deed; whose thought is the same, whose speech is the same, whose deed is the same, whose father and commander is the same, namely, the Maker, Ahura Mazda.

Who see one another's soul thinking of good thoughts, thinking of good words, thinking of good deeds, thinking of Garo-nmana, and whose ways are shining as they go down to the libations;

It is they who shall restore the world, which will (thenceforth) never grow old and never die, never decaying and never rotting, ever living and ever increasing, and master of its wish, when the dead will rise, when life and immortality will come, and the world will be restored at its wish;

19. 20  
When the creation will grow deathless, - the prosperous creation of the Good Spirit, - and the Druj shall perish, though she may rush on every side to kill the holy beings; she and her hundredfold brood shall perish, as it is the will of the Lord. For its brightness and glory, I will offer it a sacrifice ....

That clave unto Haoshyangha, the Paradhata, for a long time, when he ruled over the seven Karshvares of the earth, over the Daevas and men, over the Yatus and the Pairikas, over the oppressors, the blind, and the deaf; he who smote two-thirds of the Daevas of Mazana and of the Varenya fiends.

19. 28  
That clave unto Takhma Urupa, the well-armed, while he ruled over the seven Karshvares of the earth, over the paevas and men, the Yatus and Pairikas, the oppressors, the blind, and the deaf;

19. 29  
When he conquered all Daevas and men, all the Yatus and Pairikas, and rode Angra Mainyu, turned into the shape of a horse, all around the earth from one end to the other, for thirty years. For its brightness and glory, I win offer it a sacrifice ....

19. 31  
That clave unto the bright Yima, the good shepherd, for a long time,1 while he ruled over the seven Karshvares of the earth, over the Daevas and men, the Yatus and Pairikas, the oppressors, the blind, and the deaf;
- ýat upanghacat ýim ýimem xshaêtem hvãthwem darekhemcit aipi zrvânem ýat xshayata paiti bûmîm haptaithyãm daêvanãm mashyânãmca ýâthwãm pairikanãmca sâthrãm kaoyãm karafnãmca. (Ⅱ)
19. 32  
He who took from the Daevas both riches and welfare, both fatness and flocks, both weal and Glory;2 In whose reign both aliments3 were never failing for feeding creatures, flocks and men were undying, waters and plants were undrying;
- ýô uzbarat haca daêvaêibyô uye ishtishca saokâca uye fshaonishca vãthwâca uye thrãfsca frasastishca, ýenghe xshathrâdha hvairyañtu astu uye hvarethe ajyamne amareshañta pasu vîra anghaoshemne âpa urvaire. (Ⅱ)
19. 33  
In whose reign there was neither cold wind nor hot wind, neither old age nor death, nor envy made by the Daevas,4 in the times before his lie, before he began to have delight in words of falsehood and untruth.
- ýenghe xshathrâdha nôit aotem ångha nôit garemem nôit zaurva ångha nôit mereithyush nôit araskô daêvô-dâtô para anâdruxtôit, para ahmât ýat hîm aêm draokhem vâcim anghaithîm cinmâne paiti barata. (Ⅱ)
19. 34  
But when he began to find delight in words of falsehood and untruth,5 the Glory was seen to flee away from him in the shape of a bird. When his Glory had disappeared, then the great6 Yima Khshaeta, the good shepherd, trembled and was in sorrow before his foes;7 he was confounded, and laid him down on the ground.
- âat ýat hîm aêm draokhem vâcim anghaithîm cinmâne paiti barata vaênemnem ahmat haca hvarenô merekhahe kehrpa frashusat, avaênô hvarenô fraêshtô ýô ýimô xshaêtô hvãthwô brâsat ýimô ashâtô dêush-manahyâica hô steretô nidârat upairi zãm. (Ⅱ)
19. 35  
The first time8 when the Glory departed from the bright Yima, the Glory went from Yima, the son of Vivanghant, in the shape of a Varaghna bird.9 Then Mithra seized that Glory, Mithra, the lord of wide pastures, whose ear is quick to hear, who has a thousand senses. We sacrifice unto Mithra, the lord of all countries, whom Ahura Mazda has created the most glorious of all the gods in the heavens.
- paoirîm hvarenô apanemata hvarenô ýimat haca xshaêtât shusat hvarenô ýimat haca vîvanghushât merekhahe kehrpa vârekhnahe, aom hvarenô hañgêurvayata mithrô ýô vouru-gaoyaoitish ýô srut-gaoshô hazangrâ-ýaoxshtish, mithrem vîspanãm dah'yunãm danghupaitîm ýazamaide ýim fradathat ahurô mazdå hvarenanguhastemem mainyavanãm ýazatanãm. (Ⅱ)
19. 36  
The second time when the Glory departed from the bright Yima, the Glory went from Yima, the son of Vivanghant, in the shape of a Varaghna bird. Then Thraetaona seized that Glory, he, the heir of the valiant Athwya clan, who was the most victorious of all victorious men next to Zarathushtra;
- ýat bitîm hvarenô apanemata hvarenô ýimat haca xshaêtât shusat hvarenô ýimat haca vîvanghushât merekhahe kehrpa vârekhnahe, aom hvarenô hañgêurvayata vîsô puthrô âthwyânôish vîsô sûrayå thraêtaonô ýat âs mashyânãm verethravanãm verethravastemô ainyô zarathushtrât. (Ⅱ)
19. 37  
Who smote Azhi Dahaka, the three-mouthed, the three-headed, the six-eyed, who had a thousand senses, that most powerful, fiendish Druj, that demon baleful to the world, the strongest Druj that Angra Mainyu created against the material world, to destroy the world of the good principle.10
- ýô janat azhîm dahâkem thrizafanem thrikameredhem xshvash-ashîm hazangrâ-ýaoxshtîm ashaojanghem daêvîm drujem akhem gaêthâvyô drvañtem ýãm ashaojastemãm drujem fraca kereñtat angrô mainyush aoi ýãm astvaitîm gaêthãm mahrkâi ashahe gaêthanãm. (Ⅱ)
19. 38  
The third time when the Glory departed from the bright Yima, that Glory went from Yima, the son of Vivanghant, in the shape of a Varaghna bird. Then the manly-hearted Keresaspa seized that Glory; he who was the sturdiest of the men of strength, next to Zarathushtra, for his manly courage.
- ýat thritîm hvarenô apanemata hvarenô ýimat haca xshaêtât shusat hvarenô ýimat haca vîvanghushât merekhahe kehrpa vârekhnahe, aom hvarenô hañgêurvayata naire-manå keresâspô ýat âs mashyânãm ukhranãm aojishtô ainyô zarathushtrât nairyayât parô hãm-veretôit. (Ⅱ)
19. 39  
For Manly Courage clave unto him. We worship Manly Courage, firm of foot, unsleeping, quick to rise, and fully awake, that clave unto Keresaspa;
- ýat dim upanghacat ýâ ukhra naire hãm- vareitish, nairyãm hãm-vareitîm ýazamaide eredhwô-zeñgãm ahvafnyãm âsitô-gâtûm jakhâurum ýâ upanghacat keresâspem. (Ⅱ)
19. 40  
Who killed the snake Srvara, the horse-devouring, men-devouring, yellow, poisonous snake, over which yellow poison flowed a thumb's breadth thick. Upon him Keresaspa was cooking his food in a brass vessel: at the time of noon, the fiend felt the heat, and stood upon his feet: he rushed from under the brass vessel and upset the boiling water: the manly-hearted Keresaspa fell back affrighted;
- ýô janat azhîm srvarem ýim aspô-garem nere-garem ýim vîshavañtem zairitem ýim upairi vish raodhat xshvaêpaya vaênaya bareshna, ýim upairi vish raodhat ârshtyô-bareza zairitem ýim upairi keresâspô ayangha pitûm pacata â rapithwinem zrvânem tafsatca hô mairyô hvîsatca, frãsh ayanghô frasparat ýaeshyañtîm âpem parånghât, parãsh tarshtô apatacat naire-manå keresâspô. (Ⅱ)
19. 41  
Who killed the golden-heeled Gandarewa, that was rushing with open jaws, eager to destroy the living world of the good principle; Who killed the brood of Pathana, all the nine; and the brood of Nivika, and the brood of Dashtayana; Who killed the golden-crowned Hitaspa, and Vareshava, the son of Dana and Pitaona, attended by many Pairikas;
- ýô janat gañdarewem ýim zairi- pâshnem ýô apatat vîzafârô merexshânô gaêthå astvaitîsh ashahe, ýô janat hunavô ýat pathanaya nava hunavasca nivikahe hunavasca dâshtayânôish, ýô janat zaranyô-pusem hitâspem vareshaomca dânayanem pitaonemca ash-pairikem. (Ⅱ)
19. 42  
Who killed Arezo-shamana, him of the manly courage, who was strong, well-beloved, hail, energetically rushing, fully awake, never falling back....;
- ýô janat arezô-shamanem nairyãm-hãm-vâretivañtem taxmem frâzushtem ...ushtem jirem zbaremnem jikhâurum afrakatacim barôzushem apa-disem nyâidâuru apastananghô gatô arezahe. (Ⅱ)
19. 43  
Who killed Snavidhaka, him who killed with his nails, the stone-handed: thus did he exclaim to all around: 'I am an infant still, I am not yet of age: if I ever grow of age, I shall make the earth a wheel, I shall make the heavens a chariot;
- ýô janat snâvidhkem ýim srvô-zanem aseñgô-gâum, hô avatha vyâxmanyata, aperenâyu ahmi nôit perenâyu ýezi bavâni perenâyu zãm caxrem kerenavâne asmanem rathem kerenavâne, (Ⅱ)
19. 44  
'I shall bring down the Good Spirit from the shining Garo-nmana; I shall make the Evil Spirit rush up from the dreary Hell. They will carry my chariot, both the Good Spirit and the Evil One, unless the manly-hearted Keresaspa kill me.' The manly-hearted Keresaspa killed him, his life went away, his spirit vanished. For its brightness and glory, I will offer it a sacrifice ....

We sacrifice unto the awful Glory, that cannot be forcibly seized, made by Mazda ....

19. 46  
For which the Good Spirit and the Evil One did struggle with one another: for that Glory that cannot be forcibly seized they flung each of them their darts most swift. The Good Spirit flung a dart, and so did Vohu-Mano, and Asha-Vahishta and Atar, the son of Ahura Mazda. The Evil Spirit flung a dart, and so did Akem-Mano, and Aeshma of the wounding spear and Azhi Dahaka and Spityura, he who sawed Yima in twain.

Then forward came Atar, the son of Ahura Mazda, thinking thus in his heart: 'I want to seize that Glory that cannot be forcibly seized.' But Azhi Dahaka, the three-mouthed, he of the evil law, rushed on his back, thinking of extinguishing it:
- adhât frasha hãm-râzayata âtarsh mazdå ahurahe uiti avatha manghânô, aêtat hvarenô hañgerefshâne ýat ahvaretem, âat hê paskât fradvarat azhish thrizafå duzhdaênô uta zaxshathrem daomnô, (Ⅱ)
19. 48  
'Here give it up to me; O Atar, son of Ahura Mazda: if thou seizest that Glory that cannot be forcibly seized, I shall rush upon thee, so that thou mayest never more blaze on the earth made by Ahura and protect the world of the good principle.' And Atar took back his hands, as the instinct of life prevailed, so much had Azhi affrighted him.
- inja avat hañdaêsayanguha âtarsh mazdå ahurahe, ýezi aêtat nyâsånghe ýat ahvaretem frâ thwãm paiti apâtha nôit apaya uzraocayâi zãm paiti ahuradhâtãm thrâthrâi ashahe gaêthanãm, adha âtarsh zasta paiti apa-geurvayat fraxshni ushtânô- cinahya ýatha azhish bizhivångha. (Ⅱ)
19. 49  
Then Azhi, the three-mouthed, he of the evil law, rushed forward, thinking thus in his heart: 'I want to seize that Glory that cannot be forcibly seized.' But Atar, the son of Ahura Mazda, advanced behind him, speaking in these words:
- adhât frasha hãm-dvarat azhish thrizafå duzhdaênô uiti avatha manghânô, aêtat hvarenô hañgrefshâne ýat ahvaretem, âat hê paskât hãm-râzayata âtarsh mazdå ahurahe uiti vacêbish aojanô, (Ⅱ)
