E.W. West's translation of the Dina-i Mainog-i Khirad, published within the Sacred Books of the East series edited by Max Muller, is the standard nineteenth century scholarly English translation of this Pahlavi wisdom text, still cited as the reference edition even as later Pahlavi philology has refined points of the language.

A nineteenth century scholarly translation, still the standard English reference edition of this text, though its philology predates a century and more of subsequent Pahlavi studies and is read today alongside more recent commentary.
