ZQDYDRYH. Fulfill for me everything that I have been conjuring you for,
and serve me, for I have conjured you not with the name of one who is great
among you but with that of the Lord over all, whose name ties and binds and
keeps and fastens all the heavenly hosts. And if you should refuse me, I will
hand you over to the Lord God and to his Ineffable name, whose wrath and
anger and fire are kindled, who honors his creatures with one letter of his
name, and is called ZRWGDQNTAꢁQSꢁWPSꢁHꢁTYH AHWH-SHꢁTY GYH
NYGYM HYGYH HW YH HNYH HWH QLSꢁG ; so that if you refuse he
will destroy you, and you will not he found when searched after. And you
preserve me from shortness of spirit and weakness of body in the name of
HꢁZQAY AHYH WH YH HH YHH YH WH HH YH HYH AHYW YH
HYW YHW YHWY HY HWY YH QQHWH SQQHWH, the guardian of
Thy people. Blessed art Thou, who understandest the secrets and revealest
the mysteries, and art king of the Universe.'"
A voice was heard in the heavens, the voice of the Lord of the heavens,
saying: "I want a swift messenger (to go) to man, and if he fulfills my
message my children will become proud of the 'Sword' which I hand over to
them, which is the head of all the mysteries of which also my seers have
spoken, that thus will my word be, as it is said: 'Is not my word like as fire?
saith the Lord'" (Jer. xxiii, 29). Thus spoke PGNYNYNW GSYH, the lord
of heaven and earth; and I, ASSY ASYSYH APRGSYH , the swift
messenger, who am pleased with my messages and delighted with my
sending, ascended before Him, and the Lord over all commanded me: "Go
and make this known to men who are pious and good and pure and righteous
and faithful, whose heart is not divided and in whose mouth is no duplicity,
who do not lie with their tongues and do not deceive with their lips, who do
not grasp with their hands and are not lustful with their eyes, who do not run
after evil, keep aloof from every uncleanness, depart from every defilement,
keep themselves holy from contamination, and do not approach woman."
When the Lord ever all commanded me thus, I, ASSY ASYSYH
APRGSYH, the swift messenger, went down to earth, and I said on my way:
"
Where is the man who possesses all these that I should go to him and place
this with him?" And I asked myself, and thought in my heart that there is no
man who would do all this that I wished; and I found none, and it was heavy
unto me. And the Lord over all conjured me by His mighty right arm, and by
the lustre of His glory and His glorious crown, which is called HWD HWH
RYH ÿQN HY DRYH THꢁR QRWNNYH, with an oath of His mighty right
arm, and He conjured me, and the lord over all strengthened me and I did not
fall. I thus stood up, I, ASSY ASYSYH APRGSYH, to put NN in the
