kalenjin Succes Prayer

In The name ofGod, The Beneficent, The Merciful.

I seek refuge from the accursed Satan, please accept my prayer...

I seek Thy refuge from anxiety and grief,
I seek Thy refuge from lack of strength and laziness,
I seek Thy refuge from cowardice and niggardliness,
I seek Thy refuge from being overpowered by debt and from the oppression of men.

Suffice Thou me, with what is lawful.
Turn away from me the things that Thou prohibit.
And with Thy Grace,
Please keep me free from want of what is besides Thee.
