| 1 | O People! There is no other deity but Allah! |
| 2 | The Compassionate, the Beneficent, the Gracious; |
| 3 | All prayers and homage be to Allah and no other! |
| 4 | Let the truth be now revealed concerning the most ancient city of Babel; |
| 5 | Upon the great peril and conflict against the Marab people, |
| 6 | It was Sargon who led an army out of the wilderness of Arabia to defeat first the forces of separate cities of the Sumerians. |
| 7 | The great city of Eridu was captured and the land of the Mesopotamia and Tigris were conquered. |
| 8 | The court of Eridu settled upon a new city they called Mari. |
| 9 | Upon the death of Sargon they attacked the south. |
| 10 | Babel was formed as their new capital. |
| 11 | Yet these men of Babel with all their wisdom, refused to honor the one Creator. |
| 12 | Instead, they regarded themselves as above all men, as the priests of all priests. |
| 13 | In their hubris and arrogance, they became the architects of religion. |
| 14 | They formed the stories and texts which found their way to all quarters of the world of history. |
| 15 | When the lands were in ruin, the priests of Babel seized control and formed the religion of Mithra. |
| 16 | Then again, under the terrible reign of the Aryan princes, Babylon formed the religion of Manes. |
| 17 | Thus, the poison of the world beings from Babel. |
| 18 | The falsity of the world begins from Babel. |
| 19 | The confusion and curse of the world begins from Babel. |
| 20 | Though its walls have been taken and its scribes silenced, |
| 21 | Babel still calls to corrupt and destroy through the alliance Uthman and the scholars of the Manes. |
| 22 | Believe nothing which has come from this terrible city. |
| 23 | For it is seeded in hatred of the Divine and arrogant priests, |
| 24 | Who see themselves as gods amongst men. |
