Prayer of Pope Francis for the
Jubilee Year of Mercy
Lord Jesus Christ, you have taught us to be merciful
like the heavenly Father, and have told us that whoever sees
you sees Him. Show us your face and we will be saved. Your
loving gaze freed Zacchaeus and Matthew from being enslaved by money; the adulteress and Magdalene from seeking
happiness only in created things; made Peter weep after his
betrayal, and assured Paradise to the repentant thief. Let us
hear, as if addressed to each one of us, the words that you
spoke to the Samaritan woman: “If you knew the gift of
God!”
You are the visible face of the invisible Father, of the
God who manifests his power above all by forgiveness and
mercy: let the Church be your visible face in the world, its
Lord risen and glorified. You willed that your ministers
would also be clothed in weakness in order that they may feel
compassion for those in ignorance and error: let everyone
who approaches them feel sought after, loved, and forgiven by
God.
Send your Spirit and consecrate every one of us with
its anointing, so that the Jubilee of Mercy may be a year of
grace from the Lord, and your Church, with renewed enthusiasm, may bring good news to the poor, proclaim liberty to
captives and the oppressed, and restore sight to the blind.
We ask this through the intercession of Mary, Mother
of Mercy, you who live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit for ever and ever. Amen.
Oracion del Papa Francisco para el
Jubileo del Año de la Misericordia
Señor Jesucristo, tú nos has enseñado a ser misericordiosos como el Padre del cielo, y nos has dicho que quien te
ve, lo ve también a Él. Muéstranos tu rostro y obtendremos la
salvación. Tu mirada llena de amor liberó a Zaqueo y a
Mateo de la esclavitud del dinero; a la adúltera y a la Magdalena del buscar la felicidad solamente en una creatura; hizo
llorar a Pedro luego de la traición, y aseguró el Paraíso al
ladrón arrepentido. Haz que cada uno de nosotros escuche
como propia la palabra que dijiste a la samaritana:
¡Si conocieras el don de Dios!
Tú eres el rostro visible del Padre invisible, del Dios
que manifiesta su omnipotencia sobre todo con el perdón y la
misericordia: haz que, en el mundo, la Iglesia sea el rostro
visible de Ti, su Señor, resucitado y glorioso. Tú has querido
que también tus ministros fueran revestidos de debilidad para
que sientan sincera compasión por los que se encuentran en la
ignorancia o en el error: haz que quien se acerque a uno de
ellos se sienta esperado, amado y perdonado por Dios.
Manda tu Espíritu y conságranos a todos con su unción para que el Jubileo de la Misericordia sea un año de gracia del Señor y tu Iglesia pueda, con renovado entusiasmo,
llevar la Buena Nueva a los pobres proclamar la libertad a los
prisioneros y oprimidos y restituir la vista a los ciegos. Te lo
pedimos por intercesión de María, Madre de la Misericordia,
a ti que vives y reinas con el Padre y el Espíritu Santo por los
siglos de los siglos. Amén.
