What will I bring to You, or what will I reward to You, O most gifted Immortal King, generous and philanthropic Lord, since you were lazy in pleasing me, and did nothing good, you brought the conversion and salvation of my soul to the end of this day? Be merciful to me, a sinner and naked of every good deed, raise up my fallen soul, defiled in immeasurable sins, and take away from me all the evil thoughts of this visible life. Forgive my sins, the only Sinless One, even those who have sinned this day, in knowledge and ignorance, in word, and deed, and thought, and with all my feelings. You Yourself, covering me, save me from every opposing situation with Your Divine power, and ineffable love for mankind, and strength. Cleanse, O God, cleanse the multitude of my sins.
Deign, Lord, to deliver me from the snare of the evil one, and save my passionate soul, and overshadow me with the light of Your countenance, when You come in glory, and make me sleep uncondemned now, and keep the thoughts of Your servant without dreaming, and undisturbed, and drive away all the work of Satan from me, and enlighten my understanding. eyes of the heart, may I not sleep into death. And send me an Angel of peace, guardian and mentor of my soul and body, that he may deliver me from my enemies; Yes, rising from my bed, I will bring you prayers of gratitude. Yes, Lord, hear me, your sinful and wretched servant, with your will and conscience; Grant that I have risen to learn from Thy words, and the despondency of demons is driven away from me, to be made by Thy Angels; may I bless Your holy name, and glorify, and glorify the Most Pure Mother of God Mary, Who hast given us sinners intercession, and accept this one praying for us; We see that He imitates Your love for mankind, and never ceases to pray. By that intercession, and the sign of the Honest Cross, and for the sake of all Thy saints, keep my poor soul, Jesus Christ our God, for Thou art holy and glorified forever. Amen.

+ Deign, Lord, to deliver me from the snare of the evil one... and drive away all the work of Satan from me. Let us supplement these words of the prayer of St. Macarius the Great with words from his teaching: “The visible world, from kings to the beggars, is all in confusion, in struggle, and none of them knows the reason for this... The coming sin, as a certain rational force and essence of Satan, has sowed all kinds of evil: it secretly acts on the inner man and on the mind and fights with it with thoughts; people do not know that they are doing this prompted by some alien force; on the contrary, they think that it is natural and that they are doing this according to their own reasoning. But in their very minds, those who have the peace of Christ and the illumination of Christ know where all this comes from.”
