Invocation of the gods in the Moon

A Manichaean text in Parthian.

Eternal praise from the whole community that has been pardoned.
Chief of the messengers, Lord, Friend, Jesus, Savior, Ruler of the
holy religion -
You are eternally holy!

The first of those that go out ... who dispel the dark foes,
beloved of the Lights -
You are eternally holy!

Merciful Mother, Maiden of Light, soul of the God Zurvan,
head of all wisdom, who has enlightened all the gods -
You are eternally holy!

Soul gathering angels, seven shiplords ...
