Behold, I am about to stand before the Just Judge terrified and trembling because of my many sins.

For a life spent in pleasures deserves condemnation.

But repent, O my soul, so long as you dwell on this earth, for inside the grave, dust does not praise. And among the dead, no one remembers, neither in hades, does anyone give thanks.

Therefore arise from the slumber of laziness, and entreat the Savior, repenting and saying,

“God, have mercy on me and save me.”
