God has distinguished Adam among all 
mankind. 
Thus Noah and Abraham were dis- 
tinguished in all their dealings ; 
Kuresh and Hashem in their dwellings. 
By God thou hast been distinguished 
over all God's creatures. 
All the creatures of God, in heaven and 
on earth, bless thee : 
all the creatures of God, in heaven and 
on earth, praise thee : 
all the creatures of God, in heaven and 
on earth, salute thee : 
all the creatures of God, in heaven and 
on earth, do homage to thee : 
all that is blessed in creation is blessed 
through thee. 
all those who have been distinguished 
among the creatures, have been dis- 
tinguished on thy account : 
all that has been created, has been cre- 
ated through thy grace. 
On account of thy blessing have I come 
to thee : 
for such a purpose have I addressed 
thee. 
May God hear my prayer through thy 
grace.
