Have mercy on me, O my Creator Lord, Thy despondent and unworthy servant, and forsake me, and let me go, and forgive me, as the Good and Lover of mankind, that I may lie down in peace, sleep and rest, prodigal, sinful and accursed, and worship, and sing and glorify Thy most honorable name, with the Father, and His Only-begotten Son, now and ever, and unto the ages. Amen.

Prayer 4, of St. Macarius the Great

Forgive my trespasses, O Sinless One, who have sinned in this day, in knowledge and ignorance, in word, and deed, and thought, and with all my feelings. Thou Thyself, covering me, preserve me from every opposing circumstance by Thy Divine power, and by Thy ineffable love for mankind, and by Thy power. Cleanse, O God, cleanse the multitude of my sins. Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me from the snare of the evil one, and save my passionate soul, and illuminate me with the light of Thy countenance, when Thou comest in glory, and make me sleep without condemnation, and without dreaming, and without confusion, keep the thought of Thy servant, and take away all Satan's work from me, and enlighten me with the prudent eyes of my heart, that I may not fall asleep unto death. And send me an angel of peace, guardian and guide of my soul and body, that He may deliver me from my enemies; that I may arise from my bed, and offer Thee prayers of thanksgiving.

By Thy intercession, and by the sign of the Honorable Cross, and for the sake of all Thy saints, guard my poor soul, O Jesus Christ our God, for Thou art Holy, and exalted unto the ages. Amen.

Prayer 5

O Lord our God, forgive me those who have sinned in these days in word, deed, and thought, as Good and Lover of mankind. Grant me peaceful sleep and serenity. Send Thy guardian angel, covering and preserving me from all evil, for Thou art the guardian of our souls and bodies, and to Thee we send up glory, to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.

Prayer 6

O Lord our God, in Whom we believe, and His name above all names we call, grant us who are going to sleep to weaken our soul and body, and preserve us from all dreams, and except dark sweets; Stop the striving of the passions, quench the kindling of bodily rising. Grant us to live chastely in deeds and words; that we may accept a virtuous life, that we may not fall away from Thy good promises, for blessed art Thou for ever. Amen.

Prayer 7, of St. John Chrysostom

(24 молитвы, по числу часов дня и ночи)

Господи, не лиши мене небесных Твоих благ.

Господи, избави мя вечных мук.

Господи, умом ли или помышлением, словом или делом согреших, прости мя.
