Begin with the Our Father.
Read each verse, then say the Hail Mary.
At the end, say the Glory Be.
Optionally, finish with the Fatima Prayer below.
1 Jesus foresaw this punishment: “They will hand the Son of Man over to the Gentiles to be mocked and scourged and crucified.”
2 Pilate ordered that Jesus be scourged.
3 His enemies said: “Let us test him with insults and torments, so that we may be able to measure his gentleness and ascertain the depths of his forbearance of evil.”
4 When he was abused, he did not retaliate. When he suffered, he made no threats, but he placed his trust in the one who judges justly.
5 The Suffering Servant said: “I offered my back to those who struck me, my cheeks to those who plucked my beard.”
6 By his wounds you have been healed.
7 My child, when you come to serve the Lord, prepare yourself to endure trials.
8 Be sincere of heart and steadfast, and do not be alarmed when confronted with adversity.
9 Accept whatever befalls you, and be patient whenever you suffer humiliation.
10 For gold is tested in the fire, and worthy men in the furnace of humiliation.
The Fatima Prayer: O My Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of your mercy.
