Mark Lidzbarski,
Mandaïsche Liturgien — Prayer 9
“ I adore, glorify and praise Sām-Smīr, the great Splendor of the first life, the son of the great, first life, who pondered and realized and desires His own. Above the waves of the water rests his Škīnā. The Kannā of the souls that came out of him will rejoice and embrace him on the final day when the souls depart from their bodies, and they will ascend and behold the outer ether and the light dwelling. I adore, glorify and praise the great shining beings and the mighty, great light beings. I adore, glorify and praise Piriawis, the great Jordan of the first life, who is all healings. ”
