Sikukuu ya Pentekoste ilipofika, waumini wote walikuwa wamekusanyika mahali pamoja.

Kisha, vikatokea vitu vilivyoonekana kama ndimi za moto, vikagawanyika na kutua juu ya kila mmoja wao. Wote wakajazwa Roho Mtakatifu, wakaanza kusema lugha mbalimbali kadiri Roho alivyowawezesha. Na huko Yerusalemu walikuwako Wayahudi, watu wamchao Mungu, waliotoka katika kila nchi duniani. Waliposikia sauti hiyo, kundi kubwa la watu lilikusanyika. Wote walishtuka sana kwani kila mmoja wao aliwasika hao waumini wakisema kwa lugha yake mwenyewe. Walistaajabu na kushangaa wakisema, "Je, hawa wote tunaowasikia wakisema hivi, si wenyeji wa Galilaya? Imekuwaje, basi, kwamba kila mmoja wetu anawasikia wakisema kwa lugha yake mwenyewe? Baadhi yetu ni Waparthi, Wamedi na Waelamu; wengine ni wenyeji wa Mesopotamia, Yudea, Kapadokia, Ponto na Asia, Frugia na Pamfulia, Misri na sehemu za Libya karibu na Kurene; wengine wetu ni wageni kutoka Roma, Wayahudi na watu walioongokea dini ya Kiyahudi; wengine wametoka Krete na Arabia. Sisi sote tunasikia wakisema kwa lugha zetu wenyewe mambo makuu ya Mungu." [[SWA]]

MAOMBI YA EVANGELIO TAKATIFU.

Master, Lover of mankind, make the pure light of your divine knowledge shine in our hearts and open the eyes of our mind to understand the message of your Gospel. Implant in us the fear of your blessed commandments, so that, having trampled down all carnal desires, we may pursue a spiritual way of life, thinking and doing all things that are pleasing to you. For you are the illumination of our souls and bodies, Christ God, and to you we give glory, together with your Father who is without beginning, and your all-holy, good and life-giving Spirit, now and for ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.

Fais briller en nos coeurs, Maître ami des hommes, la pure lumière de ta divine connaissance. Ouvre les yeux de notre entendement pour la compréhension de tes prédications évangéliques. Place en nous la crainte de tes bienheureux commandements, afin que, foulant aux pieds les désirs de la chair, nous parvenions à la vie éternelle, dirigeant toutes nos pensées et tous nos actes pour qu’ils te soient agréables. Car tu es l’illumination de nos âmes et de nos corps, ô Christ notre Dieu, et nous te rendons gloire, ainsi qu’à ton Père Éternel et à ton Saint, Bon et Vivifiant Esprit, maintenant et toujours et aux siècles des siècles. Amen.

Ee Bwana wa Mabwana, mpenda wanadamu, angaza mioyo yetu na nuru yako takatifu ya ujuzi wa kujua Mungu; tena ufungue macho ya fikiria zetu, ili tufahamu mahubiri ya Evangelio yako. Uweke ndani yetu uchaji wa amri zako, kusudi tupate kuzikanyanga tamaa mbaya zote za kimwili, na kufuata njia ya kuishi kiroho, hata kifikiri na kutenda vitu vyote vinavyo kupendeza. Kwa kuwa wewe ndiwe mwanga wa roho na miili yetu, Ee Kristo Mungu, na kwako tunatoa utukufu, pamoja na Baba yako asiye na mwanzo, na Roho wako Mtakatifu kamili, mwema na mpaji wa uhai, sasa na siku zote hata milele na milele.

Jn. 7:37 – 52; 8:12

(7:37-52; 8:12)

On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and proclaimed, “If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink. He who believes in me as the scripture has said, out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water.” Now this he said about the Spirit, which those who believed in him were to receive; for as yet the Holy Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. When they heard these words, some of the people said, “This is really the prophet.” Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “Is the Christ to come from Galilee? Has not the scripture said that the Christ is descended from David, and comes from Bethlehem, the village where David was?” So there was a division among the people over him. Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him. The officers then went back to the chief priest and Pharisees, who said to them, “Why did you not bring him?” The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!” The Pharisees answered them, “Are you led astray, you also? Have any of the authorities or of the Pharisees believed in him? But this crowd, who do not know the law, are accursed.” Nikodemus, who had gone to him before, and who was one of them, said to them, “Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he does?” They replied, “Are you from Galilee too? Search and you will see that no prophet is to rise from Galilee.” Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” [RSV]

[[FRA]]

Siku ya mwisho ya sikukuu hiyo ilikuwa siku maalumu. Yesu alisimama, akasema kwa sauti kubwa, "Aliye na kiu na aje kwangu anywe. Kama yasemavyo Maandiko Matakatifu: ''Anayeniamini mimi, mito ya maji ya uhai itatiririka kutoka moyoni mwake!''" (Alisema hayo kumhusu Roho ambaye wale waliomwamini yeye watampokea. Wakati huo Roho alikuwa hajafika kwa sababu Yesu alikuwa hajatukuzwa bado). Baadhi ya watu katika ule umati walisikia maneno hayo, wakasema, "Kweli mtu huyu ndiye yule nabii!" Wengine wakasema, "Huyu ndiye Kristo!" Lakini wengine walisema, "Je, yawezekana Kristo akatoka Galilaya? Maandiko Matakatifu yasemaje? Yanasema: ''Kristo atatoka katika ukoo wa Daudi, na atazaliwa Bethlehemu, mji wa Daudi!''" Basi, kukatokea mafarakano juu yake katika ule umati wa watu. Baadhi ya watu walitaka kumtia nguvuni lakini hakuna aliyejaribu kumkamata. Kisha wale walinzi wakarudi kwa makuhani wakuu na Mafarisayo; nao wakawauliza, "Kwa nini hamkumleta?" Walinzi wakawajibu, "Hakuna mtu aliyepata kamwe kusema kama asemavyo mtu huyu!" Mafarisayo wakawauliza, "Je, nanyi pia mmedanganyika? Je, mmekwisha mwona hata mmoja wa viongozi wa watu, au mmoja wa Mafarisayo aliyemwamini? Lakini umati huu haujui sheria ya Mose; umelaaniwa!" Mmoja wao alikuwa Nikodemo ambaye hapo awali alikuwa amemwendea Yesu. Basi, yeye akawaambia, "Je, sheria yetu humkukumu mtu kabla ya kumsikia kwanza na kujua anafanya nini?" Nao wakamjibu, "Je, wewe pia umetoka Galilaya? Haya, kayachunguze Maandiko Matakatifu nawe utaona kwamba Galilaya hakutoki kamwe nabii!" Yesu alipozungumza nao tena, aliwaambia, "Mimi ndimi mwanga wa ulimwengu. Anayenifuata mimi hatembei kamwe gizani, bali atakuwa na mwanga wa uhai." [[SWA]]

Yet on account of your inexpressible and boundless love for mankind you became man without change or alteration and were named our High Priest; and as Master of all you have committed to us the sacred ministry of this liturgy without shedding of blood. For you alone, Lord our God, are Ruler over all things in heaven and on earth, mounted on the throne of the Cherubim, Lord of the Seraphim and King of Israel, the only Holy One, resting in the holy place.

For you are the one who offers and is offered, who receives and is distributed, Christ our God, and to you we give glory, together with your Father, who is without beginning, and your all-holy, good and life-giving Spirit, now and for ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.

Aucun de ceux qui sont liés par les désirs et les passions charnelles n’est digne de venir à toi, de t’approcher, de t’offrir un sacrifice, ô Roi de gloire, car te servir est chose grande et redoutable même aux puissances célestes. Cependant, par ton ineffable et incommensurable bonté, tu t’es fait homme, sans changement ni mutation de ton Être, tu t’es fait notre Grand Prêtre et tu nous as confié le ministère du sacrifice liturgique et non sanglant, ô Maître de toutes choses. Toi seul, Seigneur notre Dieu, tu règnes dans le ciel et sur la terre, porté sur le trône des chérubins, Seigneur des séraphins, Roi d’Israël, seul Saint qui reposes dans les saints. C’est toi que j’implore, seul Bon et Bienveillant; abaisse ton regard sur moi, pécheur et serviteur inutile, purifie mon âme et mon coeur de toute pensée mauvaise et donne-moi la force, par la puissance de ton Saint Esprit, de me tenir, revêtu de la grâce du sacerdoce, devant cette table sainte et de consacrer ton Corps saint et immaculé et ton Sang précieux. Je viens vers toi le front incliné et je te supplie, ne détourne pas de moi ta Face et ne me retranche pas du nombre de tes serviteurs, mais rends-moi digne, tout pécheur et indigne serviteur que je suis, de t’offrir ces dons. Car en vérité c’est toi qui offres et qui es offert, toi qui reçois et qui es distribué, ô Christ notre Dieu, et c’est à toi que nous rendons gloire, à ton Père Éternel et à ton Saint, Bon et Vivifiant Esprit, maintenant et toujours et aux siècles des siècles. Amen.

Mtu wa tamaa na anasa za mwili hastahili kukujia au kukukaribia na kukuabudu, Ee mfalme wa utukufu; kwa kuwa kukutumikia ni kwa hofu sana, hata kwa Majeshi wa mbinguni: Lakini kwa kuwa unapenda binadamu kwa hali ya ajabu, umejifanya Kuhani Mkubwa wetu bila kujigeuza au kubadilika; na wewe ndiwe umetupatia kuadhimisha dhabihu hii isiyo na damu, wewe uliye Bwana wa Mabwana wa vitu vyote. Kwa kuwa ndiwe, Bwana Mungu wetu wa pekee watawala vilivyo mbinguni na duniani, unayeketi katika kiti cha enzi begani mwa Wakheruvi, uliye Bwana wa Waserafi tena mfalme wa Israeli. Ndiwe Mtakatifu wa pekee uliyepumzika kati ya watakatifu, basi nakusihi wewe uliye mwema pekee na kusikia rahisi; uniangazie mimi mtumwa wako mwenye dhambi na asiyefaa; utakase roho na moyo wangu na kila dhamira mbaya; tena unijalie kwa nguvu ya roho Mtakatifu ili, nikivaa neema ya ukasisi, nisimame mbele ya Meza yako hii Takatifu; na kuadhimisha Mwili wako Mtakatifu na wa usafi na Damu yako ya thamani. Kwa kuwa nakujia wewe, nikiinamisha shingo yangu, nakusihi ; usinifiche uso wako; mbali mimi mtumwa wako mwenye dhambi nisiyestahili, unistahilishe kukuletea vipaji hivi. Kwa kuwa wewe ndiwe uliyetoa na uliyetolewa, uliyepokea tena uliyegawanya, Ee Kristo Mungu wetu, na kwako tunatoa utukufu, pamoja na Baba yako asiye, na mwanzo na kwa Roho wako Mtakatifu kamili, mwema na mpaji wa uhai, sasa na siku zote, hata milele na milele.

Then the Priest, or Deacon, takes the censer and censes the Holy Table, the Sanctuary, the principal icons and the People, coming out a little from the holy Doors.

In a low voice he says, if it is Sunday, Having seen the Resurrection of Christ, let us worship the Holy Lord Jesus, the only sinless one. We worship your Cross, O Christ, and we praise and glorify your holy Resurrection. For you are our God; we know no other but you; we name you by name. Come, all the faithful, let us worship the holy Resurrection of Christ; for behold through the Cross, joy has come in all the world. Ever blessing the Lord, we sing his Resurrection. For having endured the Cross for us, by death he has destroyed death.

Ayant vu la Résurrection du Christ, adorons le Saint Seigneur Jésus, seul sans péché. Nous vénérons ta croix, ô Christ, chantons et glorifions ta sainte Résurrection, car tu es notre Dieu, nous n''en connaissons pas d''autre, et c''est ton Nom que nous invoquons. Venez, tous les fidèles, adorons la sainte Résurrection du Christ, car par la Croix est venue la joie dans le monde entier. Bénissant en tout temps le Seigneur, nous chantons sa Résurrection. Il a souffert pour nous la Croix, anéanti la mort par sa mort.

Tukiwa tumeona ufufuko wake Kristo tumsujudu Yesu Bwana Mtakatifu aliye pekee bila dhambi. Tunasujudu Msalaba wako. Ee Kristo, tena tunasifu na kutukuza ufufuko wako mtakatifu. Kwa kuwa wewe ndiwe Mungu wetu, tunajua wewe pekee, hatumjui mwingine , jina lako tunaliita. Njooni, enyi waumini wote, tusujudu ufufuko mtakatifu wa Kristo. Kwa kuwa kwa Msalaba furaha umefika dunia yote, tukimhimidi Bwana siku zote, tunasifu utukufu wake; kwa sababu akivumilia msalaba kwa ajili yetu, aliangamiza kifo kwa kifo chake.

If it is not a Sunday he says, Come, let us worship and fall down before the King, our God. Come, let us worship and fall down before Christ, the King, our God. Come, let us worship and fall down before Christ himself, the King, our God.

Venez, adorons, prosternons-nous devant Dieu, notre Roi. Venez, adorons, prosternons-nous devant le Christ, notre Roi et notre Dieu. Venez, adorons, prosternons-nous devant le Christ lui-même, notre Roi et notre Dieu.

Njooni, tumwinamie na tumsujudu Mungu mfalme wetu. Njooni, tumwinamie na tumsujudu Kristo yu Mungu mfalme wetu. Njooni, tumwinamie na tumsujudu yeye, Kristo aliye mfalme na Mungu wetu.

He then says Psalm 50, excluding the last two verses which begin, Do good, Lord, ...to Sion.

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your great mercy, and according to the multitude of your compassions blot out my transgression. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my iniquity, and my sin is ever before me. Against you only have I sinned, and done this evil before you, that you might be justified in your words, and prevail when you are judged. For behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sins did my mother bring me forth. For behold, you have loved truth; you have revealed to me the hidden and secret things of your wisdom. You shall sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; you shall wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow. You shall make me hear joy and gladness; the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice. Turn your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right Spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and establish me with a governing Spirit. I will teach transgressors your ways, and the ungodly shall return to you. Deliver me from blood-guilt, O God, the God of my salvation; my tongue shall rejoice in your righteousness. O Lord, you will open my lips, and my mouth shall declare your praise. For had you desired sacrifice, I would have given it; you will not be pleased with whole-burnt offerings. A sacrifice to God is a broken spirit; a broken and humbled heart God will not despise.

Aie pitié de moi, Ô Dieu, selon ta grande miséricorde et dans ton infinie bonté, efface mon péché. Seigneur, ouvre mes lèvres, et ma bouche annoncera ta louange.

Ee Mungu, unirehemu, sawasawa na fadhili zako. Kiasi cha wingi wa rehema zako, uyafute makosa yangu. Unioshe kabisa na uovu wangu, unitakase dhambi zangu. Maana nimejua mimi makosa yangu, na dhambi yangu i mbele yangu daima. Nimekutendea dhambi Wewe peke yako, na kufanya maovu mbele za macho yako. Wewe ujulikane kuwa una haki unenapo, na kuwa safi utoapo hukumu. Tazama, mimi naliumbwa katika hali ya uovu; mama yangu alinichukua mimba hatiani. Tazama, wapendezwa na kweli iliyo moyoni; nawe utanijulisha hekima kwa siri, unisafishe kwa hisopo nami nitakuwa safi, unioshe, nami nitakuwa mweupe kuliko theluji. Unifanye kusikia furaha na shangwe, mifupa uliyoiponda ifurahi. Usitiri uso wako usitazame dhambi zangu; uzifute hatia zangu zote. Ee Mungu, uniumbie moyo safi, uifanye upya roho iliyotulia ndani yangu. Usinitenge na uso wako, wala roho yako mtakatifu usiniondolee. Unirudishie furaha ya wokovu wako; unitegemeze kwa roho ya wepesi. Nitawafundisha wakosaji njia zako, na wenye dhambi watarejea kwako. Ee MUNGU, Mungu wa wokovu wangu, uniponye na damu za watu, na ulimi wangu utaiiimba haki yako. Ee Bwana, uifumbue midomo yangu, na kinywa changu kitazinena sifa zako. Maana hupendezwi na dhabihu au ningeitoa, Wewe huridhii sadaka ya kuteketezwa. Dhabihu za Mungu ni roho iliyovunjika; moyo uliovunjika na kupondeka, Ee Mungu, hutaudharau.

Then he enters the Sanctuary and puts away the censer. Then both of them, coming in front of the Holy Table make three bows, and say quietly troparia of compunction. They kiss the Antimension and the Holy Table, bow again and then turn to the people and bow to them, saying: Forgive me. or similar words.

They go to the table of the Prothesis, and having made three bows they kiss the covered Holy Gifts, saying: God, cleanse me a sinner.

Then the Deacon says to the Priest: Master, lift up.

Enlève, père.

Ee padri, inua.

The Priest lifts the Aer and places it on the shoulders of the Deacon, saying: In the nights lift up your hands to the sanctuary, and bless the Lord.

Painulieni patakatifu mikono yenu, na kumhimidi BWANA.

Then he gives the Deacon the Paten, while he himself takes the Chalice.

When the Chanters reach the end of the first part of the Cherubic Hymn, the Deacon and the Priest come out from the north door of the Sanctuary, preceded by exapteryga, lights and incense, as they make the Great Entrance. As they process they proclaim, one after the other:

May the Lord God remember you all in his Kingdom always, now and for ever, and to the ages of ages.

Que le Seigneur Dieu se souvienne dans son Royaume de vous tous chrétiens orthodoxes, en tout temps, maintenant et toujours et aux siècles des siècles.

The Priest and Deacon enter the Sanctuary.

The Deacon, stands to the right in front of the Holy Table and says to the Priest as he enters (in a low voice): May the Lord God remember your priesthood in his Kingdom, always, now and for ever, and to the ages of ages.

And the Priest, as he enters, says to him (in a low voice): May the Lord God remember your diaconate in his Kingdom, always, now and for ever, and to the ages of ages.

Then the Priest places the Chalice on the Holy Table, takes the Paten from the Deacon and places it to the left of the Chalice, saying (in a low voice): The noble Joseph taking down your spotless Body from the tree, wrapped it in a clean shroud with sweet spices and laid it for burial in a new grave.

Then he takes the covers from the sacred Paten and the Holy Chalice and lays them to one side on the Holy Table. He takes the Aer from the shoulders of the Deacon, holds it over the censer and lays it over the Chalice and Paten. Then he takes the censer and censes the Gifts three times, as the Deacon says:

And in the Holy Spirit, * the Lord, * the Giver of life, * who proceeds from the Father, * who together with Father and Son is worshipped * and together glorified; * who spoke through the Prophets. * In one, Holy, * Catholic and Apostolic Church. * I confess one Baptism * for the forgiveness of sins. * I await the resurrection of the dead * and the life of the age to come.

Il a été crucifié pour nous sous Ponce Pilate, a souffert et a été enseveli; et il est ressuscité le troisième jour selon les Écritures, et il est monté au ciel et siège à la droite du Père; et il reviendra en gloire juger les vivants et les morts; son règne n’aura point de fin.

We thank you also for this liturgy which you have been pleased to accept from our hands, though there stand around you thousands of archangels and tens of thousands of angels, the Cherubim and the Seraphim, six-winged and many-eyed, soaring aloft upon their wings,

Il est digne et juste de te chanter, de te bénir, de te louer, de te rendre grâce, de t’adorer en tout lieu de ta domination, car tu es un Dieu inexprimable, incompréhensible, invisible, insaisissable, existant de toute éternité, identique à toi-même, toi, ton Fils Unique et ton Esprit Saint. C’est toi qui nous as conduits du non-être à l’être, qui nous as relevés après la chute et qui ne cesses de tout faire pour nous ramener au ciel et nous donner ton Royaume à venir. Pour tout cela nous te rendons grâce, à toi, à ton Fils Unique et à ton Esprit Saint, pour tout ce que nous savons et pour tout ce que nous ignorons, pour les bienfaits visibles ou invisibles que tu as répandus sur nous. Nous te rendons grâce aussi pour cette liturgie que tu daignes recevoir de nos mains, bien que tu sois servi par des milliers d’archanges, des myriades d’anges, par les chérubins et les séraphins aux six ailes et aux innombrables yeux, qui volent, sublimes, dans les hauteurs.

Ni wajibu na haki kukuimbia, kukuhimidi, kukusifu, kukushukuru na kukusujudu katika mahali popote pa utawala wako.Kwa kuwa wewe ndiwe Mungu usiye elezeka, usiye wazika usiye onekana, usiye chunguzika, usiye na mwanzo tangu milele, uliye sawa sawa nyakati zote, wewe na mwana wako wa pekee, na Roho wako Mtakatifu; wewe ulitufanya toka bure, na tukawa; na tuangakapo wewe hutusimamisha, na ulifanya vyovyote, mpaka kutupaza mbinguni ili kutupatia ufalme wako utakaokuja. Kwa ajili ya vyote hivi tuna kushukuru wewe, na Mwana wako wa pekee, na Roho wako Mtakatifu, tunakushukuru kwa ajili ya vitu vyote vinavyo onekana na visivyo onekana ulivyo tutendea. Tunashukuru hata kwa ajili ya Liturghia hii uliyokubali kuipokea kwa mikono yetu, ingawa wasimama mbele yako maelfu ya Malaika majemadari, na maelfu ya Malaika, Wakheruvi na Waserafi wenye mabawa sita, macho-mengi wanaopepea juu.

With these blessed Powers, Master, Lover of mankind, we also cry aloud and say: Holy are you and all-holy, you and your only-begotten Son and your Holy Spirit. Holy are you and all-holy, and magnificent is your glory. This is how you loved your world: you gave your only-begotten Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish, but have eternal life. And, when he had come and had fulfilled the whole dispensation for us, in the night in which he was given up, or rather gave himself up, for the life of the world, he took bread in his holy, most pure and unblemished hands and, when he had given thanks and had blessed, sanctified and broken it, gave it to his holy Disciples and Apostles, saying:

Et nous aussi, avec ces puissances bienheureuses, Maître ami des hommes, nous clamons et nous disons : Tu es Saint, parfaitement Saint, toi, ton Fils Unique et ton Esprit Saint. Tu es Saint, parfaitement Saint, et ta gloire est magnifique. Toi qui as aimé le monde jusqu’à donner ton Fils Unique, afin qu’aucun de ceux qui croient en lui ne périsse, mais possède la vie éternelle. Et lui, étant venu, ayant accompli tout ton dessein en notre faveur, la nuit où il fut livré ou plutôt se livra lui-même pour la vie du monde, il prit du pain dans ses mains saintes, pures et immaculées, rendit grâce, le bénit, le sanctifia, le rompit et le donna à ses saints disciples et apôtres en disant:

PRAYERS BEFORE HOLY COMMUNION

MAOMBI YA USHIRIKA

I believe, O Lord, and I confess that you are truly Christ, the Son of the living God, who came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief. And I believe that this is truly your most pure Body, and that this is truly your own precious Blood. Therefore, I pray: Have mercy on me and forgive me my transgressions, voluntary or involuntary, in word and in deed, in knowledge or in ignorance; and grant me to partake of your most pure Mysteries without condemnation, to the remission of sins and life everlasting. Amen.

Nasadiki Ee Bwana , na kuungama kuwa kweli ndiwe Kristo Mwana wa Mungu aliye hai, uliye kuja duniani kuwaokoa wenye dhambi, kati yao ni mimi wa kwanza. Tena nasadiki kuwa huu ndio mwili wako wa bila doa na hii ndiyo damu yako heshimiwa. Basi nakuomba unihurumie na kunisamehe makosa yangu, ya hiara ama yasio na hiara, kwa maneno ama kwa matendo ninayo fahamu ama nisiyo fahamu; na unistahilishe kushiriki katika fumbo (Mistiri) lako la bila doa, kwa ajili ya maondoleo ya dhambi na uzima wa milele. Amina.

Behold I approach the divine Communion! O Maker, do not consume me as I partake; For you are Fire, consuming the unworthy; But purify me of every stain.

Tazama naujia ushirika wa Mungu, ee muumba usinichome katika kushiriki, kwa kuwa u moto wa kuwachoma wasiostahili, bali unisafishe na uchafu wangu wote.

Of your mystical Supper, Son of God, receive me today as a communicant; for I will not tell of the Mystery to your enemies; I will not give you a kiss, like Judas; but like the Thief I confess you: Remember me, Lord, in your Kingdom.

Unipokee leo, Ee Mwana wa Mungu, kuwa mshiriki wa karamu yako ya fumbo (Mistiri); sitafunua kamwe fumbo lako kwa maadui wako, wala sitakubusu kama Yuda; Bali kama yule mnyang’anyi nakuungama. Unikumbuke, Ee Bwana katika ufalme wako.

You see the deifying Blood: have fear. * It is a coal consuming the unworthy. * God''s Body deifies and nourishes * Me strangely; both my spirit and my mind.

Ogopa ee mtu unpoiona damu takatifu. Kwa kuwa ni moto wa kuwachooma wasiostahili. Ni mwili wa Mungu na unanigeuzia umungu na kunilisha. Ni Roho wa Mungu unaonilisha akili kwa njia ya ajabu.

You have smitten me with longing, O Christ, and changed me by your divine love; but with your immaterial fire burn up my sins and count me worthy to be filled with delight in you, that as I leap for joy, O Good One, I may magnify your first and second Comings.

Umenivuta kwako kwa hamu, Ee Kristo, na umenigeuza kwa upendo wa umungu; bali uchome dhambi zangu kwa moto usioonekana, naunistahilishe kujawa na furaha ya umungu, ili niki‐ furahiwa sana niyatukuze mahudhurio yako mawili mwema we.

How shall I, the unworthy, enter among the splendours of your Saints? For if I dare to enter with them into the bridal chamber, my dress convicts me, for it is not a wedding garment, and I shall be bound and cast out by the Angels. Cleanse the stain of my soul, Lord, and save me, as you love humankind.

Faharini za watakatifu wako, jinsi nitakavyo ingia, mimi nisiye stahili; kwa kuwa ningekuwa na ujasiri kuingia katika chumba cha arusi nguo yangu isiyo stahili kuwa kwa arusi inanistaki; hivyo malaika wangenifunga na kunitupa nje. Ee Bwana, usafishe uchafu wa roho yangu, na kuniokoa, Ee mpenda–wanadamu.

Master, lover of humankind, Lord Jesus Christ, my God, do not let these holy Mysteries be for my condemnation because I am unworthy, but rather for the cleansing and sanctification of both soul and body and as a pledge of the life and kingdom to come. It is good for me to cleave to God, to place in the Lord the hope of my salvation.

Ee Bwana wa mabwana, mpenda–wanadamu, Yesu Kristo Mungu wangu, nakuomba vitakatifu hivi visiwe kwa kunihukumu, kwa kuwa mimi navishiriki bila kustahili; bali viwe kwa usafisho na utakaso wa roho hata wa mwili; tena ahadi ya uzima na ufalme ujao. Basi kwa mimi ni vema kutegemea katika Mungu, kuyaweka kwa Bwana matumaini ya wokovu wangu.

Wewe uwape marudio ya utukufu kwa uweza wako wa Umungu; tena usituache sisi tunao kutumaini. Upatie dunia yako amani, tena Maekklesia Yako, Makasisi, Viongozi wetu, majeshi na watu wako wote. Kwa kuwa kila ukarimu wema na kila kipaji kilicho kamili kinatoka kwako juu, uliye Baba wa nuru; na kwako tunatoa utukufu, ushukuru na usujudu, kwa Baba, na Mwana, na Roho Mtakatifu, sasa na sikuzote hata milele na milele.
