O Lord and Master of my life,
A spirit of idleness, despondency, ambition,
and idle talking give me not.
Prostration.
But rather a spirit of chastity, humble-mindedness,
Patience, and love bestow upon me Thy servant.
Prostration.
Yea, O Lord King, grant me to see my own failings
And not condemn my brother;
for blessed art Thou unto the ages of ages.
Prostration.
Then twelve bows from the waist, saying at each bow:
O God, cleanse me a sinner.
And again, without division, the same prayer entirely to the end,
And one prostration.
