1. Grant me, O
Lord…
Gewähre mir,
Gott…
To know what is
worth knowing,
Zu wissen, was
wissenswert ist,

2. To love what is
worth loving,
Zu lieben, was
sich lohnt zu
lieben,

3. To praise what delights you most,
Zu loben, was Dich am meisten
begeistert,

4. To value what is precious in
your sight.
zu würdigen, was kostbar
ist in Deinen Augen.

5. Do not let me
judge by what I
see,
Nicht nach dem,
was ich sehe zu
urteilen,

6. Nor pass sentence
according to what I hear,
Auch nicht nach dem,
was ich höre,

7. But to judge rightly
between things that
differ,
Sondern recht zu
urteilen, wo Dinge
unterschiedlich sind,

8. And above all to
search out and
do what pleases
you. Amen.
Und vor allem,
herauszufinden,
was Dich erfreut.
Amen.
