Translated Text:

It is with such actions
that the ritualistic priests and princes are annihilated
through the very people,
whom they have deprived of the power to live as they wish.
Of these two parties,
the latter will be taken to the house of good mind.

Commentary:

Once the truth exposed by Zarathushtra is understood, the priests and princes are overthrown by the very people who are deprived of their rightful freedom to live. It is the free people who ultimately enjoy the blessings of good mind.

Pondering Point:

“Evil actions committed to gain wealth are self-destructive, as in the end the oppressed will overthrow the greedy wrongdoers.”
