Pahlavi Texts, Part III (SBE24), E.W. West, tr. [1885], at sacred-texts.com
1. The eighty-second subject is this, that, when thou risest up from the bed-clothes, it is necessary to tie the sacred thread-girdle 3 again at that same place, and it is not desirable to put forth a step without the girdle.
2. For it is declared in revelation, that every single step which one puts forth without the sacred thread-girdle is a Farmân sin 4, and through four steps it becomes a Tanâvar sin which would be a weight of a thousand and two hundred dirhams 5. 3. Therefore, it is necessary to keep watch over oneself, as regards this sin, and to tie on the sacred thread-girdle.

347:4 See Sls. I, 2, IV, 10, XI, 2.
