O Master, Lord our God, Who
in Thy wisdom hast created man, and didst honor him with Thy Divine image, and
place in him the spirit of life, and lead him into this world, bestowing on him
the hope of resurrection and life everlasting; and after he had violated Thy
commandments, Thou O Gracious lover of mankind, didst descend to the earth that
Thou mightest renew again the creation of Thy hands. Therefore we pray Thee, O
All-Holy Master give rest to the souls of Thy servants, (their names),
in a place of brightness, a place of green pasture, a place of repose, and, in
that they have sinned in word, or deed or thought forgive them: For Thou art a
good God and lovest mankind and unto Thee do we ascribe Glory, together with
Thy Father, Who is from everlasting and Thine All-Holy and good, and ever
giving Spirit, now, and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
