How to Pray the Chaplet of The Divine Mercy
(On ordinary rosary beads) (Diary, 476)
The
Our Father
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.
The Hail Mary
Hail
Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the
fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the
hour of our death. Amen.
The Apostles' Creed
(Text from official approved translation. See Holy Saturday Liturgy in the Roman Missal.)
I
believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus
Christ, His only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, and born
of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead. On the third day He rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is
seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again 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 the life everlasting. Amen.
On the Large Bead before Each Decade:
Eternal
Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our
Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
On the 10 Small Beads of Each Decade:
For
the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
Concluding Doxology: (after five decades)
Holy
God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world. (Three
times)
