Prayer of Manasseh 12–15

I have sinned, O Lord, I have sinned,

And I acknowledge mine iniquities.

But, I humbly beseech thee,

Forgive me, O Lord, forgive me,

And destroy me not with mine iniquities.

Neither, in thy continual anger against me,

Lay up evil in store for me:

Nor pass thou sentence against me,

When I am in the lowest parts of the earth.

For thou, O Lord, art the God of them that repent;

And in me thou wilt show forth *all* thy goodness:

For thou wilt save me, unworthy that I am,

According to thy great mercy.

And I will praise thee for ever all the days of my life:

For all the host of heaven doth sing thy praise,

And thine is the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
