The Lord’s Prayer (from the New Zealand Prayer Book)
Eternal Sprit
Earth-Maker, Pain-bearer, Life-giver,
Source of all that is and that shall be,
Father and Mother of us all.
Loving God, in whom is heaven.
The hallowing of your name echoes through the universe!
The way of your justice be followed by the peoples of the earth.
Your heavenly will be done by all created beings.
Your commonwealth of peace and freedom
sustain our hope and come to earth.
With the bread we need for today, feed us.
In the hurts we absorb from one another, forgive us.
In times of temptation and trial, spare us.
From the grip of all that is evil, free us.
For you reign in the glory of the power that is love,
now and forever. Amen.

Guide: O Lord, you have searched me and known me. You discern my thoughts from far away. You are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, you know it completely.
~ Senyè, ou sonde m', ou konnen m'. Ou konprann panse m' byen lwen. Ou konnen tout chemen m' yo. Anvan menm yon mo sou lang mwen, ou konnen l' nèt.
Many: Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is so high that I cannot attain it. For it was you who formed my inward parts. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
~ Konesans sa a twò bèl pou mwen; li tèlman wo ke mwen pa ka rive jwenn li. Paske se ou ki te fòme pati anndan mwen. M ap fè lwanj ou, paske mwen fèt yon fason ki fè m pè e ki bèl.
Guide: Wonderful are your works; that we know very well. Our frame was not hidden from you, when we were being made in secret. Intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
~ Travay ou yo bèl anpil; nou konnen sa byen. Kò nou pa t kache devan ou, lè yo t ap kreye nou an sekrè. Li te byen trikote nan fon tè a.
All: How weighty are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! We come to the end—We are still with you.
~ Ala gwo panse ou yo ye, O Bondye! Ala gwo kantite yo ye! Nou rive nan fen an—Nou toujou avèk ou.

Guide: Shepherd of the people of God, listen! You who lead Joseph like a flock. You who are enthroned upon the cherubim shine forth. Stir up your might, and come to save us.
~ Bèje pèp Bondye a, koute! Ou menm k'ap mennen Jozèf tankou yon twoupo. Ou menm ki chita sou cheriben yo, klere byen bèl. Reveye tout fòs ou, vin sove nou.
Many: You brought a vine out of Egypt and planted it. You cleared the ground for it; it took deep root and filled the land. Mountains were covered with its shade, it sent out its branches to the sea.
~ Ou te fè yon pye rezen soti nan peyi Lejip, ou te plante l. Ou te netwaye tè a pou li. Li te pran rasin byen fon, li te ranpli peyi a. Lonbray li te kouvri tout mòn yo, branch li yo te gaye jouk nan lanmè.
Guide: Why then have you broken down its walls? All who pass along the way ravage it. Turn again, O God of hosts; look down from heaven and see; have regard for this vine that your hand planted.
~ Poukisa ou kraze miray li yo? Tout moun k'ap pase sou wout la ap ravaje l'. Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, vire gade ou soti nan syèl la pou ou wè. Gade pye rezen ou te plante ak men ou.
All: Then we will never turn back from you; give us life, and we will call on your name. Restore us, O Lord, let your face shine that we may be saved.
~ Konsa, nou p'ap janm vire do ba ou; ban nou lavi, epi n'a rele non ou. Remèt nou ban nou, O Senyè, fè figi ou klere pou nou ka sove

Guide: Restore us again, O God of our salvation, and put away your indignation toward us. Will you not revive us again, so that we your people may rejoice in you?
~ Bondye delivrans nou an, fè nou tounen yon bèl bagay ankò. Tanpri, sispann fache kont nou. Èske w p ap ban nou lavi ankò, pou nou menm, pèp ou a, ka fè kè nou kontan pou ou?
Many: Show us your steadfast love, O Lord, and grant us your salvation. Let us hear what God the Lord will speak, for God will speak peace to the people, to the faithful, to those who turn to the Lord in their hearts.
~ Senyè, montre nou lanmou san favè ou, epi ban nou delivrans ou. Ann tande sa Bondye, Senyè a, pral di, paske Bondye ap pale lapè ak pèp la, ak moun ki fidèl yo, ak moun ki tounen vin jwenn Senyè a nan kè yo.
Guide: Steadfast love and faithfulness will meet; righteousness and peace will kiss each other. Faithfulness will spring up from the ground, and righteousness will look down from the sky.
~ Lanmou ki pa janm sispann ak fidelite ap rankontre; jistis ak lapè ap bo youn lòt. Fidelite ap pouse soti nan tè a, jistis ap gade anba soti nan syèl la.
All: The Lord will give what is good. Righteousness will go before the Lord, making a path for the Lord’s steps.
~ Senyè a ap bay sa ki byen. Lajistis ap mache devan Senyè a, l ap louvri yon chemen pou pye l.

Many: We will call to mind the deeds of the Lord; we will remember your wonders of old, meditate on all your work, on your mighty deeds. Your way, O God, is holy.
~ N ap sonje sa Senyè a te fè yo; n ap sonje bèl mèvèy ou te fè nan tan lontan, n ap medite sou tout travay ou yo, sou gwo mèvèy ou yo. Chemen ou, Bondye, se yon chemen sen.
Guide: You are the God who works wonders; when the waters saw you, O God, they were afraid; the very deep trembled. Your way was through the sea, yet your footprints were unseen.
~ Ou se Bondye ki fè mirak. Lè dlo yo wè ou, Bondye, yo pran pè. Dlo yo tranble. Chemen ou te nan mitan lanmè a, men mak pye
ou yo te envizib.
All: You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. Lead us now.
~ Ou te mennen pèp ou a tankou yon twoupo avèk men Moyiz ak Arawon. Kondui nou kounye a.

Unison Reading: (Psalm 23)
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; 3 he restores my soul. He leads me in right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
my whole life long.
Se yon sòm David. Seyè a se gadò mwen, mwen p'ap janm manke anyen. 2 Kote zèb yo pi bèl, se la li fè m' pran repo. Kote dlo a koule poze, se la li mennen m' bwè. 3 Li fè m' reprann fòs. Li fè m' mache nan chemen dwat, pou sa sèvi yon lwanj pou non li. 4 Menm si m'ap pase nan yon ravin kote ki fè nwa anpil, mwen p'ap pè anyen, paske, Seyè, ou la avèk mwen. Se baton ou ak gòl ou ki fè kè m' pa kase. 5 Ou pare yon tab pou mwen devan je tout lènmi m' yo. Ou resevwa m', ou fè kè m' kontan ou ban m' tou sa m' bezwen. 6 Wi, mwen konnen w'ap toujou renmen m', w'ap toujou bon pou mwen pandan tout lavi m'. Se lakay ou m'ap rete tout tan tout tan.
