...in His name, and He will receive it from your hand, and you will be answered and succeed in every single thing. Perform [these rituals] in purity and holiness:

And these are the names of the depths: In the first [level] is Tziktehu original: "נתקתהו" - possibly a corruption of a name like Tziktehu and the minister Tzafniel; in the second is Simpson and the minister Athiel; in the third is Asher Shen and the minister Ababaot; in the fourth is Ha-Itov and the minister Pniel.

And these are the names of the angels who serve in fire and flame: Malkiel, Raphadiel, Guriel, Amania, Araliel, Nuriel, Yuriel.

If you seek to perform a task and walk through fire, or enter into fire, or extinguish fire, recite the name of the season Tekufah: An astrological season or turning point of the sun and the names of the seven angels who are appointed over the rivers of fire. Whatever you desire they will do; they will receive [the request] from your hand and perform all your will.

And these are the angels who serve in the sea and all the creatures within it: Bukotya, Zabortya, Tarkiya. If you seek to cast something into the sea, write these names and "Katil Regyona" likely a magical formula or angelic name along with the names of the season and cast it into the sea. You may perform your desire, even if it is for harm The text suggests these formulas can be used for both "good" and "bad" magic, but it must be written on a plate of silver.

These are the angels who rule over the rain. If there is a drought and you seek to pray for rain, do this: pray and speak in the name of the constellations: Malkiel, Marmarmot, Tohtiel, Sagniel, Kakhtiel, Taniel, Gadiel, Karmiel, Yeshayah, Matriel, Lityah. Recite [the names of] these angels seven times. Take a white rooster Sekhvi: A literary Hebrew term for a rooster in purity and cleanliness, slaughter it, cover its blood, remove its limbs and take out its entrails. Fill it with myrrh, frankincense, saffron, good peppers, white pepper, honey, milk, and old wine. Stand facing the sun in the wind with focused intent and say: "I request of you, holy supreme ones, who bring down dew and rain, that you open the gates of the storehouses of blessing and bring down rain, and make the world flourish from the storehouse of blessing."

And if you are not answered by these, quickly fall on your face to the ground and mention the prayer, and afterward mention the honored, awesome, and holy Name. Libate the milk, the honey, and the wine seven times, and the rain will descend quickly, and the world will be renewed. Do all your deeds with caution, purity, and modesty, and you shall succeed.

These are the angels who rule over all evil beasts, such as bears, lions, and wolves. For one who mentions [these names] against them, the earth will shut and seal their mouths from you. These are: Machniel, Aphtiel, Bahiel, and Mechmiel. These beasts are appointed by the word The text shifts briefly to Aramaic: "these animals are appointed by the word..." of the Great Holy One, Kushiel and Shamshiel. Pass by and do not fear.

And if you are traveling on the road and you see the "wheels" original: "Gilgalim" - could refer to celestial spheres, demonic manifestations, or whirlwind-like entities coming toward you, place your hand on your right side and call the name of the spirit through which they come upon you, and afterward say the Name in reverse, and they will all turn back from you.

And if you fall into a gathering of evil people and understand that they have plotted to kill you and you have no savior, the honored and awesome Name shall be your savior. Place your hand on your side and say the name of the sun in its season, and the Name from its beginning exactly as it is written in its script and its letters, and you will benefit from it in uprightness and escape.

And if you write it on a tablet of gold, all evil thoughts and human schemes will be removed from you. If you are walking on the road and attackers original: "Rofphim" - likely meaning bandits or those who cause trembling fall upon you, and you see them before they see you, turn from the path in the fields and place both your hands on your head and call upon the sun in its season, and they will not see you.

And if they see you before you see them, say the Name three times and they will no longer see you. If they seize you and you fall into their hands, say the Name in reverse and you will escape.

And if you are in a house and it falls upon you, hurry and call the name of the earth in its season and the Name in reverse, and the stones and wood will be lifted from you, or whatever else might fall on you, and you will escape without blemish.

And if you are in a ship at sea and there is a great storm, and you see there is no place to flee or escape, call the name of the sea in its season and mention the honored and awesome Name over them; the storm will stand still in silence and you will be saved.

And if you stand in judgment over a matter and you see your enemy with your eyes, place witnesses your hands over your right ear and speak and adjure by the letters of the Name that they should rise into your heart, and you will be vindicated in the judgment.

And if your words are not heard, and you know that there is a transgression or sin in your hand, or a flaw of shame or another commandment [neglected], lie down and pray the prayer mentioned in this book and mention the Name that it should rise into your heart; your enemies will be broken before you and you will be vindicated.

And if you seek to see the light of the sun as it rises in the chariot original: "Merkavah" - the celestial chariot of the sun, say these: the name of the sun in its season, and mention the holy and pure Name against it. The sun will pass, and you will see it like a groom coming out of his canopy. Ask of it whatever you desire, and it will give to you. Afterward, say "He who looks at the earth and it trembles," and wake up and speak this Name in reverse, and release it to its path.

And if you desire to stand over a hidden treasure to bring up silver and gold hidden in the earth, take a plate of gold refined seven times and write upon it in the field a letter from this holy and pure Name. Tie it with a blue thread. Then bring a white pigeon, tie a blue thread around its neck, and release it into the air in the place where it will descend to search with its feet for a pit. If it is within the city, it will stand on the roof. Come and sweep the place seven times. If by day, say the name of the sun in its season; if by night, say the name of the moon in its season.
