Oratio Matutinalis Morning Prayers

Evening Prayers
In stillness of mind, stand quietly. Then, with fear of
God, cross yourself, saying:
9 In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit, amen.
Kneel and quietly recollect what you have done in the
day which is past, against the will of our Lord. And cry
to Him for mercy, saying:
confess all my sins to Thee, Lord Jesus Christ,
I all that I have done from mine infancy till now,
in knowledge and in ignorance. And with my whole
heart I beg forgiveness for whatever I did against Thy
will today, sleeping and waking, in words, in deeds, in
thoughts, by the darts of the devil and the desire of my
flesh, praying that Thy wrath fall not upon me, but Thy
grace look down upon me for ever. 9 For Thou livest
and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the
Holy Spirit, God through all the ages of ages, amen.
O Lord, if it be that I have done a good thing, I thank
Thee. For by Thy grace hath it been done.
Psalm 50
Have mercy upon me, O God, after Thy great goodness,
and according to the multitude of Thy mercies do
away mine offences.
Wash me thoroughly from my wickedness, and
cleanse me from my sin.
For I know my fault, and my sin is ever before me.
Against Thee only have I sinned, and done evil before
Thee, that Thou mightest be justified in Thy words,
and prevail when Thou art judged.
For behold, I was conceived in wickedness, and in
sins did my mother bear me.
For behold, Thou hast loved truth; the hidden and
secret things of Thy wisdom hast Thou revealed unto
me.
Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be
made clean; Thou shalt wash me, and I shall become
whiter than snow.
Thou shalt give joy and gladness to my hearing; the
bones that have been humbled will rejoice.
Turn Thy face from my sins, and put out all my
misdeeds.
Make me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right
spirit within me.
Cast me not away from Thy presence, and take not

In stillness of mind, stand quietly. Then, with fear of
God, cross yourself, saying:
9 In nómine Patris et Fílii et Spíritus Sancti, amen.
Kneel and quietly recollect what you have done in the
day which is past, against the will of our Lord. And cry
to Him for mercy, saying:
Confíteor Tibi, Dómine Jesu Christe, ómnia peccáta
mea, ómnia quæ feci ab infántia mea usque
ad præséntem, sciénter et insciénter. Et ex toto corde
meo véniam peto, pro ómnibus quæ feci hódie contra
voluntátem Tuam, dórmiens et vígilans, verbo, ópere,
cogitatióne, per jáculos diabólicos et concupiscéntiam
carnis mei, implórans quod ira Tua non cadat in me,
sed grátia Tua respíciat in me semper. 9 Qui vivis et
regnas cum Deo Patre in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus
per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum, amen.
Dómine, si forte bonum fécerim, gratias ago Tibi. Quia
per grátiam Tuam factum est.
Psalmus 50
Miserére mei, Deus, secúndum magnam misericórdiam
Tuam, et secúndum multitúdinem miseratiónum
Tuárum dele iniquitátem meam.
Ámplius lava me ab iniquitáte mea, et a peccáto meo
munda me.
Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego cognósco, et peccátum
meum contra me est semper.
Tibi soli peccávi et malum coram Te feci, ut justificéris
in sermónibus Tuis et vincas cum judicáris.
Ecce enim in iniquitátibus concéptus sum, et in peccátis
concépit me mater mea.
Ecce enim veritátem dilexísti; incérta et occúlta
sapiéntiæ Tuæ manifestásti michi.
Aspérges me hyssópo et mundábor; lavábis me et
super nivem dealbábor.
Audítui meo dabis gáudium et lætítiam, et exsultábunt
ossa humiliáta.
Avérte fáciem Tuam a peccátis meis, et omnes iniquitátes
meas dele.
Cor mundum crea in me, Deus, et spíritum rectum
ínnova in viscéribus meis.
Ne projícias me a fácie Tua, et Spíritum Sanctum
Tuum ne áuferas a me.
Redde michi lætítiam salutáris Tui, et Spíritu prin-
