1 Saint Michael the Archangel,
1 Sancte Michaël Archangele,
2 defend us in battle;
2 defende nos in prælio;
3 be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
3 contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto præsidium.
4 May God rebuke him, we humbly pray:
4 Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur:
5 and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
5 tuque, Princeps militiæ cælestis,
6 Satan and all the evil spirits,
6 Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos,
7 who prowl through the world seeking the ruin of souls,
7 qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo,
8 by the power of God,
8 divina virtute,
9 thrust into hell. Amen.
9 in infernum detrude. Amen.
