Help that our good deeds and conduct may incite others to praise and honor you but not ourselves, exalting and praising your name because of us. Protect us from the shameful vice of ingratitude. Help that we may use all our possessions, speech, and deeds to glorify and honor you alone and that we do not seek to claim or seek a reputation in doing this, but that all we do be done for you to whom alone everything belongs. Help us not to forget your name when we lie on our deathbed and our conscience is troubled. Help us to invoke your holy name in all our troubles and infirmities. Protect us against all spiritual arrogance and false pride based on temporal fame or reputation. Protect us from all false and imaginary consolation which might be given in your name. Help that no one may resort to using your name to swear, lie, or deceive. Help that no one be deceived by the many kinds of falsehood which go under the pretense of truth, piety, and holiness. Help us bring to naught all heresies and false doctrines which are spread under the guise of your name. Help us root out all false belief and superstition. Help us put an end to conjuring by the devil or other creatures by your name.
Help us to do away with all sorcery and magic incantations. Therefore grant us your divine grace that we might guard against all that does not serve to the honor and glory of your holy name. In so many instances it is regarded without honor to you and is often misused in sinning, so that to live a disgraceful life might well be regarded as the same as disgracing and dishonoring your holy name. O Almighty God, dear heavenly Father, in this wretched vale of tears your holy name is sadly profaned, blasphemed, and reviled in so many ways.
