尼布爾的祈禱文

 

上帝，請賜予我平靜，

去接受我沒法改變的。

給予我勇氣，

去改變我能改變的，

賜我智慧，

分辨這二者的區別。

過好個人每一天，

享受你所賜每一刻，

把困苦當成通往平安的道路，

像主耶穌那樣，接受這罪惡的世界，

按其現實本相，而非如我所願

相信他會使一切變得美好，

只要我順服他的旨意；

我能夠在今生有合宜的歡樂，

並在永生裏，與他永享至福。

 

阿門。

 

God, Grant me

the SERENITY, to accept the things I cannot change,

COURAGE to change the things I can, and

the WISDOM to know the difference.

Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time;

Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace.

Taking as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;

Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will.

That I may be reasonably happy in this life, and

supremely happy with Him forever in the next.

Amen
