Translated Text:
Now, Wise One, the person who wants to destroy us,
is indifferent to this doctrine.
He himself is the child of a wrong world,
and is one of the malefactors.
I invoke righteousness for mine,
so that it comes along with good reward.
Commentary:
Although assured of his mission’s success, Zarathushtra and companions have their enemies who are alien to his Divine Message. They are the products of a wrong world; as such, they are harmful. However, adhering fast and firm to the Universal Law of Righteousness, Zarathushtra knows that in spite of some difficulties, the final success would be his.
Pondering Point:
“In the face of the oppression of deceitful and evil people, call upon the righteous order of existence to be empowered to resist them.”
