PSALM OF THE DAY
Antiphon:

Psalm 47
All you peoples, clap your hands,
shout to God with cries of gladness,

For the Lord, the Most High, the awesome,
is the great king over all the earth.

He brings peoples under us;
nations under our feet.

He chooses for us our inheritance,
the glory of Jacob, whom he loves.

God mounts his throne amid shouts of joy;
the Lord, amid trumpet blasts.

For the king of all the earth is God;

God reigns over the nations,
God sits upon his holy throne.

The princes of the peoples are gathered together
with the people of the God of Abraham.

For God’s are the guardians of the earth;
he is supreme.

O Son,
condescending to become one of us,

Stretch forth your merciful right hand upon us,
that it may protect us from the enemy,
now and forever.

Amen.

EVENING PSALMS
Psalm 141:1-4
O Lord, to you I call; hasten to me;
harken to my voice when I call upon you.

Let my prayer come like incense before you;
the lifting up of my hands, like the evening sacrifice.

O Lord, set a watch before my mouth,
a guard at the door of my lips.

Let not my heart incline to the evil
of engaging in deeds of wickedness

With men who are evildoers;
and let me not partake of their dainties.

Psalm 142
With a loud voice I cry out to the Lord;
with a loud voice I beseech the Lord.

My complaint I pour out before him;
before him I lay bare my distress.

When my spirit is faint within me,
you know my path.

In the way along which I walk
they have hid a trap for me.

I look to the right to see,
but there is no one who pays me heed.

I have lost all means of escape;
there is no one who cares for my life.

I cry out to you, O Lord:
I say, “You are my refuge,
my portion in the land of the living.”

Attend to my cry,
for I am brought low indeed.

Rescue me from my persecutors,
for they are too strong for me.

Lead me forth from prison,
that I may give thanks to your name.

The just shall gather around me
when you have been good to me.

Psalm 119:105-112
A lamp to my feet is your word,
a light to my path.

I resolve and swear
to keep your just ordinances.

I am very much afflicted;
O Lord, give me life according to your word.

Accept, O Lord, the free homage of my mouth,
and teach me your decrees.

Though constantly I take my life in my hands,
yet I forget not your law.

The wicked have laid a snare for me,
but from your precepts I have not strayed.

Your decrees are my inheritance forever;
the joy of my heart they are.

I intend in my heart to fulfill you statutes
always to the letter.

Psalm 117
Praise the Lord, all you nations;
glorify him, all you peoples!

For steadfast is his mercy toward us,
and the truth of the Lord endures forever.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and forever. Amen.

Alleluia.

HOOSOYO
PROEMION
Praise, glory and honor to the One who hears our prayers
ànd forgives our transgressions.
He is the ocean of mercy and source of compassion,
the God of goodness to whom is due glory and honor this evening,
and all the days of our lives, now and forever.

Amen.

SEDRO
Creator of the world and ruler of all beings,
you uphold everything by your power and guide all things in your wisdom.
You have made evening and morning, night and day.
Lord God,
during this evening grant our souls freedom from all evil thoughts,
and our bodies rest from all harmful fatigue.
Accept our vigil and receive our worship,
that your calm may reign over us, and your peace govern our hearts.
Thus, our minds will be freed from the darkness of sin.
Be for us the Sun of justice;
illumine us with your spiritual light, Lord,
that we may not sleep amid confusion and shame,
but be awakened to labor according to your commandments.
Do not turn your ever-watchful eye from us, but guard us in your mercy.
Lord, do not let the wolf enter into your sheepfold
to devour the sheep marked with your seal,
but protect us with your merciful right hand,
and save us from the enemy.
Keep the snares of the devil far from us,
and drive away all evil spirits.
Let no obscure thoughts fill us,
but rather grant us, asleep or awake, to persevere in what is pleasing to you,
and to store up deeds of goodness and light for the great and awesome Day.
Then we shall be counted among those who inherit the heavenly and eternal joys,
in that place of light where neither darkness nor trouble can penetrate,
and we shall glorify you, your Father and the Holy Spirit,
now and forever.

Amen.

QOLO
Lord, accept the incense (prayers) of your servants,
as you accepted the incense of Moses, and receive our petitions,
as you received the prayer of Eleazar and Phinehas.

As the incense of Aaron the Levite was pleasing to you,
so may this incense (our prayers), which your worshipers
have offered to you, be acceptable in your sight.

ETRO
Lord,
receive this incense (our prayer) which we have offered to you,
and render it pleasing to your Father.
Delight us with the fragrance of your glorious perfumes.
Thus we shall rejoice in you and give glory to you, your Father and your living Spirit,
now and forever.

Amen.

READINGS
MAZMOORO
Save your people and bless your inheritance;
shepherd and guide them always.

Some trust in chariots and others in horses,
but we trust in the name of the Lord our God forever.

I heard the voice of the Prophet Jeremiah say:
“Happy the man who from his earliest youth has shouldered the yoke of the Lord.”

SCRIPTURE READINGS
A Reading from the Gospel of Mark
Mark 11: 20-33
Early in the morning, as they were walking along, they saw the fig tree withered to its roots.
Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.”
Jesus said to them in reply, “Have faith in God. Amen, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it shall be done for him. Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours. When you stand to pray, forgive anyone against whom you have a grievance, so that your heavenly Father may in turn forgive you your transgressions.” They returned once more to Jerusalem. As he was walking in the temple area, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders approached him and said to him, “By what authority are you doing these things? Or who gave you this authority to do them?” Jesus said to them, “I shall ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. Was John’s baptism of heavenly or of human origin?
Answer me.” They discussed this among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘Of heavenly origin,’ he will say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’ But shall we say, ‘Of human origin’?” — they feared the crowd, for they all thought John really was a prophet. So they said to Jesus in reply, “We do not know.” Then Jesus said to them, “Neither shall I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

SUPPLICATION
O Lord of night, and Master of all time,
hear our supplication and have mercy on us.

You reconciled heaven and earth, grant peace to your
Church and keep her children in the light of the cross.

Behold, that night which spreads and covers the earth with darkness.
At night time may our prayer be a pure incense pleasing to your majesty.

The sun has set, darkness envelopes the earth.
Lord, illumine the eyes of our hearts with your light. Glory be to you, O Lord.

The Virgin Mary, your Mother and the apostles, prophets and
martyrs intercede for us; O God, through their prayers,
strengthen the weak, comfort the sick, grant pardon to the
deceased, and forgive the faults of us poor sinners.

Exalt O Lord, the memory of your Mother and your saints;
through their prayers grant pardon to us and our deceased.
Through the prayers of your Mother, the prophets, apostles and martyrs,
watch over the living, and in your mercy forgive those who have died.

HOOTOMO
Let us confess, adore, and praise the holy and glorious Trinity:
Father, Son, + and Holy Spirit. Amen.

TRISAGION
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy

Holy are you, O God;
Holy are you, O Strong One;
Holy are you, O Immortal One;
have mercy on us.

Lord, have mercy on us.
Lord, forgive us and have mercy on us.
Lord, hear us and have mercy on us.
Lord, accept our worship and our prayers.
Lord, come to our assistance
and have mercy on us.

LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father, who are in heaven;
hallowed be your name;
your kingdom come;
your will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil,
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours,
now and forever.
Amen.

O Lord,
the night and the day are yours;
you uphold the light and the sun.
Through your power you direct the sequence of the seasons.
O Lord,
you have brought the day to its close and called forth the night;
Be for us that great Day that never ends.
In the evening let your light shine in our hearts,
and in the darkness of the night
enlighten us with the knowledge of your truth.
And so, through all the days of our lives,
we shall praise you, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
To you be glory and may your mercy rest upon us,
now and forever.

Amen.

EXAMINATION OF CONSCIENCE
Let us thank God for all the graces he has bestowed on us
this day which has passed in calm and peace.

Let us recall our failings against the commandments of
God and the Church in thought, word, deed, or omission.

We ask for God’s pardon as we pray:
“Forgive us, Jesus!”

Lord have mercy,
Lord have mercy,
Lord have mercy.

Glory be to you, O Lord,
Glory be to you, O Lord,
Glory be to you, O Lord.

God,
Father in heaven,
by your living and holy name,
keep us from evil and lead us not into temptation;
for we call upon you, O Lord our God, our constant hope,
glory to you forever.

O Lord, our Lord,
may our humble worship be pleasing to you;
may our prayers come before you and our actions give you honor.
Let your mercy, kindness, help, graces and divine love
be poured abundantly upon us, poor sinners,
both in heaven and on earth
which you have created in your goodness.
O Lord, our God, to you be glory forever.

Amen.

DISMISSAL
Peace be with you.
And with your spirit.
O God,
through the prayers of your Mother
and the saints who have believed in you;
Through the prayers of the prophets, apostles,
martyrs and confessors; through the prayers of the just,
the priests, the holy fathers, pastors and teachers of the truth faith;
and through the prayers of N., Pope, of Rome,
N., our Patriarch, and N., our Bishop,
forgive your people and have mercy on your flock.
May God bless, forgive, sanctify, purify,
and keep each of the faithful united with us in this spiritual office.
May mercy and compassion be upon us
and all the faithful who dwell here.
May peaceful rest be granted to those who have died in the faith.
May the faithful who live here experience
the protection of his victorious cross.
May we and all his servants, who adore him with bowed heads,
receive the mercy of the holy and glorious Trinity:
Father, Son, + Holy Spirit,
to whom be glory now and forever.

Amen.

May God forgive your sins,
pardon your failings,
and deliver you from the power of the enemy.
May he grant you the remission of your offenses.
Go in peace, and pray to Christ for me.
