and do good works in Thy holy churches, and who
are mindful of the poor. Reward them with Thy rich
and heavenly Gifts; give them things heavenly for
things earthly, things eternal for things temporal,
things incorruptible for things corruptible.
Remember, O Lord, those who are in deserts,
mountains, caverns, and pits of the earth.
Remember, O Lord, all those who continue in
virginity and godliness, and in asceticism and
devoutness of life.
Remember, O Lord, all civil authorities and our
armed forces; grant them a secure and lasting
peace; speak good things unto their hearts
concerning Thy Church and all Thy people, that we
in their tranquility may lead a calm and peaceful life
in all reverence and godliness.
Remember, O Lord, all rulers and authorities, as
also our brethren who are in their council; and all
their armed forces. In goodness, preserve Thou the
good, and through Thine own goodness makest
Thou the evil good.
