EpistleLesson from the Prophecy of Daniel
In diébus illis: Orávit Azarías Dóminum, dicens: Dómine, Deus noster: ne, quǽsumus, tradas nos in perpétuum propter nomen tuum, et ne díssipes testaméntum tuum: neque áuferas misericórdiam tuam a nobis propter Abraham diléctum tuum, et Isaac servum tuum, et Israël sanctum tuum: quibus locútus es, póllicens, quod multiplicáres semen eórum sicut stellas cœli, et sicut arénam, quæ est in líttore maris: quia, Dómine, imminúti sumus plus quam omnes gentes, sumúsque húmiles in univérsa terra hódie propter peccáta nostra. Et non est in témpore hoc princeps, et dux, et prophéta, neque holocáustum, neque sacrifícium, neque oblátio, neque incénsum, neque locus primitiárum coram te, ut possímus inveníre misericórdiam tuam: sed in ánimo contríto et spíritu humilitátis suscipiámur. Sicut in holocáusto aríetum et taurórum, et sicut in míllibus agnórum pínguium: sic fiat sacrifícium nostrum in conspéctu tuo hódie, ut pláceat tibi: quóniam non est confúsio confidéntibus in te.
Et nunc séquimur te in toto corde, et timémus te, et quǽrimus fáciem tuam. Ne confúndas nos: sed fac nobíscum juxta mansuetúdinem tuam et secúndum multitúdinem misericórdiæ tuæ. Et érue nos in mirabílibus tuis, et da glóriam nómini tuo, Dómine: et confundántur omnes, qui osténdunt servis tuis mala, confundántur in omni poténtia tua: et robur eórum conterátur: et sciant, quia tu es Dóminus, Deus solus, et gloriósus super orbem terrárum, Dómine, Deus noster.
In those days, Azaria prayed to the Lord, saying: O Lord, our God, for Your Name’s sake, do not deliver us up forever, we beseech You, or make void Your covenant. Do not take away Your mercy from us, for the sake of Abraham, Your beloved, Isaac Your servant, and Israel Your holy one, to whom You promised to multiply their offspring like the stars of heaven, or the sand on the shore of the sea. For we are reduced, O Lord, beyond any other nation, brought low everywhere in the world this day because of our sins.
We have in our day no prince, prophet, or leader, no holocaust, sacrifice, oblation, or incense, no place to offer first fruits, to find favor with You. But with contrite heart and humble spirit let us be received; as though it were holocausts of rams and bullocks, or thousands of fat lambs, so let our sacrifice be in Your presence today, that it may please You; for those who trust in You cannot be put to shame. And now we follow You with our whole heart, we fear You and we pray to You.
Do not let us be put to shame, but deal with us in Your kindness and great mercy. Deliver us by Your wonders, and bring glory to Your Name, O Lord: let all those be routed who inflict evils on Your servants; let them be shamed and powerless, and their strength broken; let them know that You alone are the Lord God, glorious over the whole world, O Lord, our God.

O Lord, our God, Who have especially commanded that these created things, which You have fashioned for the support of our weakness, should also be used as offerings dedicated to Your Name, grant we beseech You, that they may provide for us help in the present life and may be a pledge of life eternal.

Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
