(Prayer Before Bed) O Lord, the Heavenly King, the Comforter, the Spirit of Truth have compassion and mercy on me, Thy sinful servant, Absolve me, who am unworthy. Forgive all the sins I have committed this day both in my humanity and my inhumanity, behaving worse than beasts in sins voluntary and involuntary, known and unknown, from my youth, from evil suggestions, haste and despondency. If I have sworn by Thy name or blasphemed it in thought if I have reproached anyone or become angered by something or slandered or saddened anyone in my anger or have lied, or slept unnecessarily or a beggar has come to me and I have despised him or have saddened my brother or quarreled with him or have judged someone or have allowed myself to become haughty, proud or angry or, when standing in prayer, my mind has been shaken by the wickedness of this world or have entertained depraved thoughts; or have over-eaten, over-drunk or laughed mindlessly or have had evil thoughts or seen the beauty of someone and been wounded by it in my heart or have spoken inappropriately or have laughed at my brother’s sins when my own transgressions are countless or have been indifferent to prayer or have done any other evil that I can not remember for I have done all this and more, have mercy, O Master, my Creator, on me, Thy despondent and unworthy servant, Absolve, remit and forgive me, in Thy goodness and love for mankind that I, who am prodigal, sinful and wretched, may lie down in peace and find sleep and rest. May I worship, hymn and praise Thy most honorable name, In Jesus name, Amen......
