PRIEST

Let us pray unto the Lord.

O Lord our God, King of the ages, the almighty and a1l-powerful, who by thy will alone dost  create and transform all things; who didst transform the sevenfold furnace and the flame of Babylon into dew and didst preserve thy Three Holy Youths safe; thou who art the physician and healer of our souls; the safekeeping of all those that hope in thee; we pray to thee and beseech thee, banish, expel and cast away every diabolical action, every satanic attack and every plot, every evil curiosity and harm and spell of the evil eye caused by malicious and evil people from thy servant (.....); and if this has occurred because of beauty, or bravery, or prosperity, or jealousy and envy, or the evil eye, do thou O Master and Lover of mankind, stretch forth thy mighty hand and thy strong arm from on high and keep watch over this thy creature and send down upon him/her an angel of peace, a mighty guardian of soul and body, who will rebuke and banish from him/her every wicked intention, every sorcery and the evil eye of destructive and envious men; so that being guarded by thee, thy supplicant may sing to thee with thanksgiving: “The Lord is my helper, and I shall not be afraid, what can man do unto me?” And again: “I shall fear no evil for thou art with me.” For thou art God, my strength, the mighty counsellor, the Prince of peace, the Father of the age to come. Yea, O Lord our God, spare thy creature and save thy servant from every harm and influence brought about by the evil eye, and preserve him/her safe above every evil. Through the intercessions of the Mother of God and ever Virgin Mary, of the luminous Archangels and of all thy saints. Amen.
