XLVI.
When will my Lord come from you, victorious height?
That he may lift up my head from my knees,
and dry my eyes from tears.
My bag, which is full of shameful deeds,
I will pour out before him.
I will go down and tell him the fact that all the worlds have persecuted me.
The worlds persecuted me very much,
and my brothers, the sons of Kustā, are missing with me.
The worlds pelted me with stones,
and my brothers angered me with words.
But then my Lord came from you,
victorious height.
He lifted my head from my knees
and dried my eyes from tears.
My bag, which was full of shameful deeds,
I poured out before him.
I went and told him about the fact
that all the worlds had persecuted me.
The worlds persecuted me very much,
and my brothers, the sons of Kuštā, are missing with me.
The worlds threw stones at me,
and my brothers angered me with words.
They said:
"Why do you weep, my daughter Kuštā,
and do the tears flow into your bosom?
You know your way,
your way-stone is firmly set up.
Between the lamps of light
Your lamps will be raised and will shine.
In your time and in your appointed time,
rise up and behold the place of light."


Life is lifted up and is victorious,
and victorious is the man who has gone here.
