 Let thine  ears  be  attentive  to  the  voice  of  my  supplication. If thou,  O  Lord,  wilt  observe  iniquities:  Lord,  who  shall endure it?

For with  thee  there  is  merciful  forgiveness,  and  because  of thy  law  I  have  waited  for  thee,  O  Lord.

My soul  hath  relied  on  his  word:  my  soul  hath  hoped  in  the Lord.

From the  morning-watch  even  until  night,  let  Israel  hope in the  Lord.

And he  shall  redeem  Israel  from  all  its  iniquities.

Eternal rest  give  to  them,  O  Lord.

And may  perpetual  light  shine  upon  them.

May they  rest  in  peace. Amen.

I firmly  believe  there  is  one  God;  and  that  in  this  one  God there are  three  Persons,  the  Father,  the  Son,  and  the  Holy Ghost; that  the  Son  took  to  himself  the  nature  of  man. from the Virgin  Mary's  womb,  by  the  power  of  the  Holy  Ghost; and that  in  this  our  human  nature  he  was  crucified  and  died for us;  that  afterwards  he  rose  again  and  ascended  into heaven, from  thence  he  shall  come  to  repay  the  just  everlasting glory,  and  the  wicked  everlasting  punishment;  moreover, I  believe  whatsoever  else  the  Catholic  Church  proposes  to
