Oh God, grant that this creature (water)
may be endowed with Divine grace
to drive away devils
and to cast out diseases,
that whatever,
in the houses or posessions of the faithful
may be sprinkled by this water,
may be freed from everything unclean,
and delivered from what is hurtful.
Let everything that threatens the peace
or safety of the dwellers therein,
be banished by the sprinkling of this water;
so that the health that they seek
by calling upon Thy Holy Name
may be guarded from assault.
