Gib, o mein Herr, dass die zu Dir Emporgestiegenen Zuflucht finden bei Ihm, dem erhabensten Gefährten, und im Schatten des Tabernakels Deiner Erhabenheit und des Heiligtums Deiner Herrlichkeit wohnen. Benetze sie, o mein Herr, aus dem Meere Deiner Vergebung mit dem, was sie würdig macht, in Deinem erhabensten Reich und Deinem allhöchsten Hoheitsgebiet zu weilen, solange Deine unumschränkte Herrschaft währt. Mächtig bist Du zu tun, was Dir gefällt.
