To thy servant with whom thou art angry graciously turn. May the anger of my lord be appeased, Appeased the god I know not! The goddess I know, the goddess I know not, The god who was angry with me, The goddess who was angry with me be appeased! The sin which I have committed I know not. May my god name a gracious name, My goddess name a gracious name, The god I know, the god I know not Name a gracious name, The goddess I know, the goddess I know not Name a gracious name! Pure food I have not eaten, Pure water I have not drunk, The wrath of my god, though I knew it not, was my food, The anger of my goddess, though I knew it not, cast me down. O lord, many are my sins, great my misdeeds. [These phrases are repeated many times.] The lord has looked on me in anger, The god has punished me in wrath, The goddess was angry with me and hath brought me to sorrow. I sought for help, but no one took my hand, I wept, but no one to me came, I cry aloud, there is none that hears me, Sorrowful I lie on the ground, look not up. To my merciful god I turn, I sigh aloud, The feet of my goddess I kiss [.] To the known and unknown god I loud do sigh, To the known and unknown goddess I loud do sigh, O lord, look on me, hear my prayer, O goddess, look on me, hear my prayer. * * * * * Men are perverse, nothing they know. Men of every name, what do they know? Do they good or ill, nothing they know. O lord, cast not down thy servant! Him, plunged into the flood, seize by the hand! The sin I have committed turn thou to favor! The evil I have done may the wind carry it away! Tear in pieces my wrong-doings like a garment! My god, my sins are seven times seven--forgive my sins! My goddess, my sins are seven times seven--forgive my sins! Known and unknown god, my sins are seven times seven--forgive my sins! Known and unknown goddess, my sins are seven times seven--forgive my sins! Forgive my sins, and I will humbly bow before thee. V
