23. और हे राजा, तू ने जो एक पवित्र पहरूए को स्वर्ग से उतरते और यह कहते देखा कि वृक्ष को काट डालो और उसका नाश करो, तौभी उसके ठूंठ को जड़ समेत भूमि में छोड़ो, और उसको लोहे और पीतल के बन्धन से बान्ध कर मैदान की हरी घास के बीच में रहने दो; वह आकाश की ओस से भीगा करे, और उसको मैदान के पशुओं के संग ही भाग मिले; और जब तक सात युग उस पर बीत न चुकें, तब तक उसकी ऐसी ही दशा रहे।
ERVHI
23. हे राजन, आपने एक पवित्र स्वर्गदूत को आकाश से नीचे उतरते देखा था। स्वर्गदूत ने कहा था वृक्ष को काट डालो और उसे नष्ट कर दो। वृक्ष के तने पर लोहे और काँसे का बन्धेज डाल दो और इसके तने और जड़ो को धरती में ही छोड़ दो। खेत में घास के बीच इसे रहने दो। ओस से ही यह नमी लेता रहेगा।वह किसी जंगली पशु के रूप में रहा करेगा।इसके इसी हाल में सात ऋतु—चक्र (साल) बीत जायेंगे।
