✦
1. I also saw the souls of those wicked (2) who swallowed and voided, and again swallowed and voided. 3. And I asked thus: 'What souls are those of these?' 4. Srosh the pious, and Adar the angel, said (5) thus: 'These are the souls of those wicked who, in the world, believed not in the spirit, (6) and they have been unthankful in the religion of the creator Ohrmazd. (7) they have been doubtful of the happiness which is in heaven, and the torment which is in hell, and about the reality of the resurrection of the dead and the future body.'
