Healing from heaven to Mādar-Āfri daughter of Anušay. May there lie in the dust the injuries of vows of every place and every shaded place. And every evil thing, and whatever oppresses Mādar-Āfri daughter of Manušay, the sorcery and the charms which are cast, (all) will be pressed and hidden in the earth before her by the power of his army. And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said: Rise up, Lord, and let your enemies be scattered, and let them <that hate you> flee before you (Numbers 10:35). ’qdd w’br’. Amen Amen Selah.
