Rosary 玫瑰經

** Rosary: Approved form

Sign of the Cross
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

Our Father, Hail Mary x 3, Glory Be to the Father

  * Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, Glorious Mysteries

  * Lord's Prayer
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

  * Hail Mary x 10
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

  * Glory Be to the Father
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.

  * Fatima Prayer
O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those most in need of Thy mercy. Amen.

Hail Holy Queen
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To you we cry, the children of Eve; to you we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this land of exile. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us; lead us home at last and show us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus: O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.

我信全能的天主父,天地萬物的創造者,天地萬物的創造者。我信父的唯一子,我們的主耶穌基督,我們的主耶穌基督。我信他因聖神降孕,由童貞瑪利亞誕生,由童貞瑪利亞誕生。我信他在比拉多執政時蒙難,被釘在十字架上,被釘在十字架上,死而安葬,我信他下降陰府,第三日從死者中復活,第三日從死者中復活。我信他升了天,坐在全能天主父的右邊,坐在全能天主父的右邊。我信他要從天降來,審判生者死者,審判生者死者。我信聖神。我信聖而公教會,諸聖的相通, 我信罪過的赦免。我信肉身的復活。我信永恆的生命。亞孟。

我們的天父,願祢的名受顯揚,願祢的國來臨,願祢的旨意奉行在人間,如同在天上。求祢今天賞給我們日用的食糧,求祢寬恕我們的罪過,如同我們寬恕別人一樣。不要讓我們陷於誘惑,但救我們免於凶惡。阿們。

  * 聖母經 x 10
萬福瑪利亞,妳充滿聖寵,主與你同在,妳在婦女中受讚頌,妳的親子耶穌同受讚頌。天主聖母瑪利亞,求妳現在和我們臨終時,為我們罪人祈求天主。亞孟。

  * 聖三光榮經
願光榮歸於父,及子,及聖神。起初如何,今日亦然,直到永遠。亞孟。

  * 法地瑪聖母禱詞
吾主耶穌,請寬赦我們的罪過,助我們免於地獄永火。求禰把眾人的靈魂,特別是那些需要禰憐憫的靈魂,領到天國裡去。

又聖母經
萬福母后!仁慈的母親,我們的生命,我們的甘貽,我們的希望。厄娃子孫,在此塵世,向妳哀呼。在這涕泣之谷,向妳歎息哭求。我們的主保,求妳回顧,憐視我們。一旦流亡期滿,使我們得見妳的聖子,萬民稱頌的耶穌。童貞瑪利亞,妳是寬仁的、慈悲的、甘飴的。天主聖母,請為我們祈求‧使我們堪受基督的恩許。阿們。
