Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and at all times and to the ages of ages, Amen<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our father in the skies. Hallowed be your name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done. As in heaven so on earth. Give us our essential bread today. And leave to us what we owe, just as we leave it to those who owe it to us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, Amen<\/p>\n

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men (3 times)<\/strong><\/p>\n

O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise (twice)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Psalm 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

O Lord, why are there so many who make me sad? Many rose up against me. Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in God. But you, O Lord, are my supporter, my glory, and the lifter of my head. With my voice I cried to the Lord, and he answered me from his holy mountain. I lay down and slept and then got up because the Lord helped me. I am not afraid of the countless peoples surrounding me who are rallying against me. Arise, O Lord, save me, O my God, for you have struck down all those who oppose me in vain, and have crushed the teeth of sinners. Salvation belongs to the Lord, and your blessing be upon your people. I lay down and slept and then got up because the Lord helped me.<\/p>\n

Psalm 37<\/strong><\/p>\n

O Lord, do not rebuke me with your anger, and do not discipline me with your anger. For your arrows have been stuck in me and have been placed on your hand. There is no recovery for my body from the face of your wrath, nor any safety for my bones from the face of my sins. For my sins have risen above my head, like a heavy burden weighing down upon me. My wounds have stinked and become shameful because of my ignorance. I was miserable and bent down to the end, and all the day I walked with a frown. For my death is full of afflictions, and my body has no cure. I am wretched and greatly humbled, and I groan with the sighing of my heart. O Lord, all my desires are before You, and my sighs are not hidden from You. My heart is troubled, my strength has left me, and even the light in my eyes is no longer with me. My friends and relatives approached me and stood facing me, and my family stood far away from me. And those who seek my life and those who seek evil against me have exhausted me. They have spoken vain things and deceitfully, studying all day long. As for me, I am like a deaf person who does not hear, and like a mute person who does not open his mouth. I became like a man who does not hear and has no rebuke in his mouth. For I trust in You, O Lord. You will answer me, O Lord and my God. For I said: Do not let my enemies rejoice over me, and when my feet stumbled, they spoke loudly to me. For I am ready to be struck, and my pain is at my side at all times. For I will declare my iniquity, and I will worry about my sin. As for my enemies, they are alive and they are stronger than me, and those who hate me unjustly have increased. Those who reward me for good with evil reward me for following righteousness. Do not neglect me, O my Lord and my God, and do not distance yourself from me. I turn to my help, O Lord, my salvation.<\/p>\n

Psalm sixty-two<\/strong><\/p>\n

O God, my God, I seek you early. My soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you in a barren, uninhabited land with no water. Thus I appeared to you in Jerusalem to behold your power and glory. For your mercy is better than life and my lips will praise you. Likewise, I bless you in my life, and in your name I lift up my hands. So my soul will be filled with fat and fat, and with joyful lips my mouth will praise you. If I remember you on my bed, I will be excited about you during dawn. Because you have become my help, and the shadow of your wings I rejoice. My soul has clung to you, and my right hand has supported you. But those who seek my life in vain will go into the depths of the earth and will be delivered into the hands of swords, and will become pillars for foxes. As for the king, he delights in God and praises everyone who swears by him, because he has stopped the mouths of those who speak unjustly. I rejoice in you at dawn because you have become my help and in the shadow of your wings I rejoice. My soul has clung to you, and my right hand has supported you.<\/p>\n

Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and at all times and to the ages of ages, Amen<\/p>\n

Psalm eighty-seven<\/strong><\/p>\n

O Lord, God of my salvation, I have cried out before you day and night. Let my prayer enter before you; Bend your ear to what you asked. My soul is filled with evil and my life is approaching hell. I was counted with those who went down into the pit. I became like a man who had no helper, free among the dead. Like the wounded lying in the graves, whom you have not yet mentioned, and they are cut off from your hand. They put me in a pit of the lowest of the low, in the darkness and shadow of death. Your anger has become fierce against me, and you have repaid all your terrors against me. My acquaintances kept me away from me, they made me a vice to them. I converted to Islam and did not leave. And my eyes became weak from pain. I have cried out to You, O Lord, all day long; I have stretched out my hand towards You. Do you do wonders for the dead? Or do the doctors evaluate them and confess to you? Will anyone in the grave tell of your mercy and your right to perish? Do you know your wonders in the darkness and your justice in the forgotten land? And I have cried out to you, O Lord, so that my prayer may reach you in the morning. Why, O Lord, do you alienate my soul and turn your face away from me? I have been poor and in misery since my youth, and when I was exalted, I was humbled and perplexed. Your anger has passed over me, and your terrors have disturbed me. It surrounded me like water all day long, surrounding me with its entirety. You kept my friends, relatives, and acquaintances away from me for the sake of misery. O Lord, God of my salvation, I have cried before you day and night, let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my request.<\/p>\n

Psalm 102<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, His Holy Name. Bless the Lord, my soul, and do not forget all his rewards. He is the one who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. He who delivers your life from calamity, who crowns you with mercy and compassion. He who satisfies your desires with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle. The Lord makes mercy and justice for all the oppressed. Moses made known his ways and his will to the children of Israel. The Lord is merciful and gracious, longsuffering and abounding in mercy. He will not be angry forever, nor will he be angry forever. He did not treat us according to our iniquities, nor did He reward us according to our sins. For as high as the sky is above the earth, the Lord strengthens His mercy upon those who fear Him. As far as the East is from the West, He has removed our evil deeds from us. Just as a father has compassion for his children, so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him, because he knows our creation and remembers that we are dust. Man's days are like grass, and so he flourishes as the flower of the field. Because if the wind blows on it, it becomes non-existent and its location is no longer known. As for the mercy of the Lord, it is from eternity to eternity upon those who fear Him. And His justice toward children\u2019s children who keep His covenant and remember His commandments to do them. The Lord in heaven has prepared his throne, and his kingdom rules over all. Bless the Lord, all you angels who are mighty in strength and do what He says when you hear the voice of His words. Bless the Lord, all you his forces, and all you servants who do his will. Bless the Lord, all his works. In every place of his dominion, bless the Lord, my soul. In every place of His dominion, His dominion, bless the Lord, O my soul.<\/p>\n

Psalm 142<\/strong><\/p>\n

O Lord, listen to my prayer and listen to my request with your truth, answer me with your justice. And do not enter into judgment with your servant, because he will not be pure before you alive. For the enemy has persecuted my soul, and has brought down my life to the earth, and made me sit in darkness as the dead of eternity. And my spirit is weary, and my heart is troubled within me. I remembered the old days and marveled at all your deeds, and contemplated the works of your hands. I extended my hands to you, my soul before you is like a barren land. Hurry and answer me, O Lord, for my spirit is exhausted. Do not turn your face away from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit. Make me hear your mercy in the morning, for I trust in you. Lord, make me know the path in which I should walk, because to you I have lifted up my soul. Save me from my enemies, O Lord, because I have sought refuge in You. Teach me to do what pleases you, because you are my God. Your good spirit guides me in a straight land, for the sake of your name, O Lord, revive me. With your justice, you bring my soul out of distress, and with your mercy, you uproot my enemies and destroy all who grieve my soul, for I am your servant.<\/p>\n

Answer me with your justice. And do not enter into judgment with your servant.twice<\/strong>)<\/p>\n

. Your good spirit guides me in a straight land. For your name\u2019s sake, O Lord, revive me, for I am your servant.<\/p>\n

Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and at all times and to the ages of ages, Amen<\/p>\n

If a friend is mentioned with praise. O driver, the testimony of the Lord is sufficient for you.

Psalm 50<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your great mercy and according to your abundant compassion, blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgression, and my sin is always before me. Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight. So that you may be justified in your words and pure in your judgment. Behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sins my mother bore me. Because I loved the truth, and you made clear to me the mysteries and hidden secrets of your wisdom. You shall sprinkle me with hyssop and I shall be clean; you shall wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. You hear me joy and joy, and my afflicted bones rejoice. Turn your face away from my sins and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Do not cast me from before your face, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me. Grant me the joy of your salvation and sustain me with a ruling spirit. Teach the transgressors Your ways, and let the unbelievers return to You. Save me from bloodshed, O God, God of my salvation, so that my tongue may rejoice in your righteousness. O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise. For if you had wanted the sacrifice, you would have given it now, but you do not delight in burnt offerings. The sacrifice to God is a contrite spirit. A humble and humble heart is not rejected by God. Reconcile Zion, O Lord, at your pleasure and build the walls of Jerusalem. Then you will be pleased with the just sacrifice, the offering and burnt offerings. Then they will offer calves on your altar.<\/p>\n
