Our splendors by Shachi are adorned by day and night to the tenth measure. Let not night strike upon us; when shall our night be? when shall our radiance be?
Enriched by holy rites, grant us, by day and night, (all good things), on account of our pious acts; never may your donations, never may our (donations), be withheld.
O Rich in Strength, through your great power vouchsafe us blessings day and night. The offerings which we bring to you shall never fail, gifts brought by us shall never fail.
