• Is there any Remover of difficulties save God? Say: Praised be God! He is God! All are his servants, and all abide by His binding!

Thy name is my healing, O my God, and remembrance of Thee is my remedy. Nearness to Thee is my hope, and love for Thee is my companion. Thy mercy to me is my healing and my succour in both this world and the world to come. Thou, verily, art the All-Bountiful, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.

O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavour, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their helper and their Lord.

Wakȟáŋ Tȟáŋka mitȟáwa kiŋ, slolčhíyiŋ na wakȟáŋčhila kta čha mayákaǧe k’uŋ hé blaátȟaŋiŋ.

Miyé wíyowakihi šni na niyé níš waníš’aka, na miyé wamáȟpaničiŋ na niyé níš wínižiča čha hená blatȟáŋiŋ.

Wakȟáŋ Tȟáŋka waŋžíla k’uŋ hé niyé, wókȟokipȟe ičhúŋhaŋ wawóyakiye, oníč’ihi.

I bear witness, O my God that you Thou hast created me to know Thee and to worship Thee.

I testify, at this moment, to my powerlessness and to Thy might, to my poverty and to Thy wealth.

The is none other God but Thee, the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.
