奥普钦那修道院长老的晨祷祝文
主啊,求使今日我所遭遇的一切,均能带给我灵性的宁静。求赐我能全然听命于你的圣意。
求你在此日的每时每刻,指引扶助我于万事万物。对于今日将会在我身上发生的一切,都请你教导我以平静的灵魂和坚定的信德去接纳,因为万有无不臣服于你的圣意。
求你在我一切的言语行止中引导我的思想和情感。在所有的意外中,请提醒我不要忘记凡事都是出自你的圣意。
求使我公正明智地对待我所遇见的每一个人,不要让任何人因我而受到伤害或烦扰。
主啊,请赐予我力量以忍耐今日的劳苦,以及此日所要发生的一切。请指引我的意念,教导我祈祷,诚信,盼望,忍耐,宽恕和爱慕。阿民。

O Lord, grant me strength to meet with serenity everything forthcoming today. Grant me to submit completely to Thy holy will. At every hour of this day guide and support me in all things. Whatsoever news may reach me in the course of this day, teach me to accept it with calmness and the conviction that all is subject to Thy holy will.
In all my words and actions direct my thoughts and feelings. In all unexpected occurances, do not let me forget that all is sent down by Thee. Teach me to deal straightforwardly and wisely with every member of my family, neither embarassing nor saddening anyone.
O Lord, grant me strength to endure the fatigue of the coming day and all the events that take place during it. Direct my will and teach me to pray, to believe, to hope, to be patient, to forgive and to love. Amen.
