上帝,万邦之主,
求袮垂听我们恳切之认罪。
愿你的真正旨意在世人面前显明,
愿一切异端邪说被你的力量粉碎。
因你慈爱的教导,
我们不应制造仇恨。
因你公义的教导,
我们不应亵渎神圣。
我们都是亚伯拉罕的女儿和儿子,
尽管我们对你的认识并非一致。
制造新的仇恨背离你的教导,
因仇恨与杀人的罪同等。
愿你的祝福临到九一一的受害者。
愿你的祝福临到受迫害的穆斯林。
愿你的力量临到真正的新教徒身上,而非法利赛人身上。
愿袮破坏魔鬼的计谋。
愿你打开穆斯林的双眼,
使他们分辨正统和异端。
愿你打开新教徒的双眼,
使他们认清理性和神学。
愿你的荣耀被万国和各宗教称颂。
愿你的圣名被万国和各宗教高举。
奉主基督之圣名祈求,阿们。
911 Prayer:
Confession for the sin of fundamentalist and religious right
O Lord, God of all nations,
Please hear our sincere confession.
May your real mind be revealed before all human,
and the heterodoxies be scattered by your power.
For your teaching of kindness,
We should never create new hate.
For your teaching of righteousness,
We should never offend holiness.
We are all the daughters and sons of Abraham,
Although our interception of God is not the same.
Creating new hate runs against your teaching,
as hating is equally sinful as killing.
May your blessing be with the victims of 911.
May your blessing be with the suppressed Muslims.
May your power be with the real Protestant but not with the Pharisee.
May you destroy the evil plan.
May you open the eyes of Muslims,
Let them distinguish the orthodoxy from heterodoxy.
May you open the eyes of Protestant,
Let them identify real rationality and divinity.
May your glory be praised by all nations and all religions.
May your name be exalted by all nations and all religions.
In the name of Christ we pray, Amen.
