Y 31.3 yąm dā̊mainiiū āϑrācā aṣ̌ācā cōiš rānōibiiā xṣ̌nūtəm

hizuuā ϑβahiiā ā̊ŋhō yā juuaṇtō vīspə̄ṇg vāuraiiā
The satisfaction which you created with (your) spirit and assigned to both parties by means of the fire and aṣ̌a;
that agreement which is for (your) followers. For us to know that, speak, O Wise one,
with the tongue of your mouth, by which I might retain all the living.
Y 31.19 gūštā yə̄maṇtā aṣ̌əm ⁺ahūm.biš vīduuā̊ahurā
ərəžuxδāi vacaŋhąm xšaiiamnō hizuuō vasō

The healer of the existence, the knowledgeable one who conceives aṣ̌a, has listened, O Lord,
he who at will has command over (his) tongue for the straight utterance of words
at (the time of ) the good distribution to both parties by means of your red fire, O Wise one.
Y 34.4 at̰tōi ātrə̄m ahurā aojōŋhuuaṇtǝm aṣ̌ā usə̄mahī

at̰mazdā daibišiiaṇtē zastāištāiš dǝrǝštā.aēnaŋhǝm
Thus, O Lord, we wish your strong fire, the swiftest (and) most powerful, to be a
brilliant support to the supporting one in accordance with aṣ̌a,
but, O Wise One, a visible harm to the hostile one by means of its hands.
Y 43.4 at̰ϑβā mə̄ṇghāi taxməmcā spəṇtəm mazdā

hiiat̰mōi vaŋhə̄uš hazə̄jimat̰manaŋhō
Then, I shall realise that you are brave and bounteous, O Wise one,
because you sustain support by that hand by which
you hold the rewards which are for the truthful ones and the deceitful ones,
by the heat of your fire, strong through aṣ̌a,
when the force of good thought shall come to me.

Then, I realise that you are bounteous, O Wise Lord,
when he approached me with good thought.
