English text From The Litany (Book of Common Prayer)
Remember not, Lord, our offences,
nor the offences of our forefathers;
neither take thou vengeance of our sins:
spare us, good Lord, spare thy people,
whom thou hast redeemed with thy most precious blood,
and be not angry with us for ever.
Spare us, good Lord.
German translation
Gedenke, Herr, nicht unserer Verfehlungen,
noch den Verfehlungen unserer Vorväter;
und nimm auch nicht Rache wegen unserer Sünden,
sondern verschone uns, guter Herr, verschone Dein Volk,
das Du erlöst hast mit Deinem kostbarsten Blut;
und zürne uns nicht ewig.
Verschone uns, guter Herr.
