In the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Mercy Giving.
All praise for Allah, Lord of the Worlds.
The All-Merciful, the Mercy Giving.
Master of the day of judgment.
You alone we worship and you alone we seek help from .
Show (guide) us the straight path.
The path of those upon whom you have bestowed (your) favours and not of those who incurred your wrath (anger) and not of those who have gone astray.
-Holy Koran
The mighty Lord on high, our deeds, as if at hand, espies: The gods know all men do, though men would fain their deeds disguise. Whoever stands, whoever moves, or steals from place to place, Or hides him in his secret cell the gods his movements trace.
This earth is his, to him belong those vast and boundless skies; Both seas within him rest, and yet in that small pool he lies. Whoever far beyond the sky should think his way to wing, He could not there elude the grasp of Varuna the king.
The ceaseless winkings all he counts of every mortal's eyes: He wields this universal frame, as gamester throws his dice. Those knotted nooses which thou fling'st, o god, the bad to snare- All liars let them overtake, but all the truthful spare.
-Atharva Veda, Book 4, Hymn 6
