2O SATISFY us early with thy mercy,
3O Lord.
4Blessed art thou, O Lord,

12Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens;
13let thy glory be above all the earth.
14By thine Ascension,
15draw us also, O Lord, unto thee,
16that we may mind the things that are above,
17and not the things upon the earth.
18Through the wondrous Mystery
19of thy holy body, and precious blood,
20instituted on the evening of this same day,
21Lord, have mercy.

1I desire not the death of a sinner,
2but rather that the wicked turn from his way,
3and live.
4Turn ye, turn ye from your
5evil way.
6For why will ye die, O house of Israel?
7Turn thou us unto thee, O Lord,
8and we shall be turned.
9Turn us away from all our ungodlinesses,
10that they be not unto us for punishment.
11I have sinned, I have done iniquity, I have done wickedly,
12departing from thy commandments, and thy judgments.
13Unto thee, O Lord, belongeth righteousness,
14but unto me confusion of face,
15as at this day,
16in our unfaithfulness, wherein thou hast rejected us.
17O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face,
18and to our princes,
19for we have sinned against thee.
20O Lord, in all is thy righteousness,
21according to all thy righteousness,
22let thine anger and thy fury be turned away, I pray thee,
23and cause thy face to shine
24upon thy servant.
25Incline thine ear, O my God, and hear;
26open thine eyes, and behold
27my desolation.
28O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken;
29hearken, O Lord, and do; do, and defer not,

1ὅτι τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐπικέκληται
2ἐπὶ τὸν δοῦλόν σου.
3Πολλὰ πταίομεν ἅπαντες·
4Κύριε, κατακαυχάσθω τὸ ἔλεός σου τῆς κρίσεώς σου,
5ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ἐμοῦ.
6Ἐὰν εἴπω, ἁμαρτίαν οὐκ ἔχω, πλανῶ ἐμαυτὸν,
7καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν ἐμοί.
8Ἀλλ' ὁμολογῶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας μου πολλὰς καὶ δεινὰς,
9καὶ σὺ, Κύριε, ὁμολογοῦντι πιστὸς εἶ καὶ δίκαιος,
10ἵνα ἀφῇς μοι τὰς ἁμαρτίας μου.
11Ἀλλὰ καὶ περὶ τούτου
12Παράκλητον ἔχω παρὰ σοὶ πρὸς σὲ,
13τὸν υἱόν σου τὸν μονογενῆ, τὸν δίκαιον.
14αὐτὸς ἱλασμὸς ἔστω περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἐμῶν,
15ὅς ἐστι καὶ περὶ τοῦ ὅλου τοῦ κόσμου.
16Μὴ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας ἀπώσεται Κύριος,
17καὶ οὐ προσθήσει τοῦ εὐδοκῆσαι ἔτι;
18Ἦ εἰς τέλος τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ ἀποκόψει;
19συνετέλεσε ῥῆμα ἀπὸ γενεᾶς εἰς γενεάν;
20Μὴ ἐπιλήσεται τοῦ οἰκτειρῆσαι ὁ Θεός;
21ἢ συνέξει ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ
22τοὺς οἰκτιρμοὺς αὐτοῦ;
23Καὶ εἶπα, νῦν ἠρξάμην.
24αὕτη ἡ ἀλλοίωσις τῆς δεξιᾶς τοῦ ὑψίστου.

1quia nomen tuum invocatum est
2super servum tuum. [*Vers.* 19.]
3In multis offendimus omnes; Jac. iii. 2.
4Domine, superexultet misericordia tua
5judicium tuum in offensis nostris. [*Jac.* ii. 13.]
6Si dixero, quia peccatum non habeo, ipse me seduco,
7et veritas in me non est. 1 Jo. i. 8.
8Sed confiteor peccata mea multa et gravia,
9et tu fidelis es et justus, Domine,
10ut confitenti mihi remittas peccata mea. [*Vers.* 9.]
11Ad quod etiam
12Advocatum ad te apud te habeo, 1 Jo. ii. 1.
13Filium tuum unigenitum, Justum:
14Sit Ipse propitiatio pro peccatis meis,
15qui est pro totius etiam mundi. [*Vers.* 2.]
16Nunquid in æternum projiciet Dominus,
17aut non apponet, ut complacitior sit adhuc?
18Aut in finem misericordiam suam abscindet?
19Consummavit verbum a generatione in generationem?
20Aut obliviscetur misereri Deus?
21aut continebit in ira sua
22misericordias suas? Ps. lxxvii. 7, [8, 9.]
23Et dixi, Nunc cœpi.
24Hæc mutatio dexteræ Excelsi. [*Vers.* 10.]
25Omne pondus,
26et circumstans me peccatum, } Heb. xii. 1.
27Omnem immunditiam
28et superfluitatem nequitiæ, } Jac. i. 21.
29Concupiscentiam { carnis, / oculorum, }
English
1because thy name is called
2upon thy servant.
3In many things we offend all;
4O Lord, let thy mercy glory over thy judgment,
5in my sins.
6If I say I have no sin, I deceive myself,
7and the truth is not in me.
8But I confess my sins, many and grievous,
9and thou, O Lord, to him that confesseth art faithful and just,
10to forgive me my sins.
11And yet even for this
12I have an Advocate with thee, unto thee,
13thy Son, the only-begotten, the righteous.
14let him be the propitiation for my sins,
15who is also for the whole world.
16Will the Lord cast off for ever,
17and will he be favourable no more?
18Is his mercy clean gone for ever?
19doth his promise fail from generation to generation?
20Hath God forgotten to be gracious?
21or hath he in anger shut up
22his tender mercies?
23And I said, Now have I begun:
24this is the change of the right hand of the Most High.
25Every weight,
26and the sin which doth so easily beset us,
27All filthiness,
28and superfluity of naughtiness,
29the lust { of the flesh, / of the eyes, }

14The grace of our Lord JESUS CHRIST,
15and the love of God,
16And the communion of the Holy Ghost,
17be with me, and with us all.
18Amen.
19I commend myself, and mine, and all that is mine,
20unto him that is able to keep me from falling,
21and to present me faultless before the presence of his glory,
22to the only wise God, and our Saviour,
23to whom be glory and majesty,
24dominion and power,
25both now, and unto all
26ages.
27Amen.
