Here's a translation:
These prayers invoke the mercy of God, recalling different moments from Christ's life and His interactions with others, seeking divine pity and guidance.
http://manuscripts.org.uk/chd.dk/tutor/15joys.html
Here’s a translation of the prayer from Middle French to Modern English:
Sweet Lady of Mercy, Mother of pity, fountain of all good, who carried Jesus Christ for nine months in your precious womb and nursed Him with your sweet breasts, beautiful, most sweet Lady, we cry to you for mercy and beg you to pray to your dear Son, that He may be willing to teach us and grant us to live in such a way that we may come to His mercy, and to true confession and repentance for all the sins we have ever committed. And thus, as you pray to Him, beautiful, most sweet Lady, we will kneel fifteen times before your blessed image in honor and remembrance of the fifteen joys you had from your dear Son on earth. Hail Mary.
Most sweet Lady, for that great joy you had when the holy angel Gabriel brought you the news that the Savior of the whole world would come into you. Sweet Lady, pray to Him that He may come into our hearts spiritually. Hail Mary.
Most sweet Lady, for that great joy you had when you went to the mountains to visit Saint Elizabeth, your cousin; and she told you that you were blessed among all women, and that the fruit of your womb was blessed. Sweet Lady, pray to Him that He may satisfy us. Hail Mary.
Most sweet Lady, for that great joy you had when you felt Him move in your precious womb. Sweet Lady, pray to Him that He may move our hearts to love Him, to know Him, to serve and honor Him. Hail Mary.
Most sweet Lady, for that great joy you had when He was born from you on Christmas Day. Sweet Lady, pray to Him that He may grant us His blessed nativity for my redemption. Amen. Hail Mary.
Most sweet Lady, for that great joy you had when the shepherds found you and your dear Son. Sweet Lady, pray to Him that we may find Him in all our tribulations. Amen. Hail Mary.

Hi. I would really appreciate it if anyone who sees this could pray for my mom and unborn baby sibling. My mom fears it's an ectopic pregnancy, which means the baby has 0% chance of making it. Please pray that they pregnancy turns out healthy, or at least has a chance. I hate to see my mom suffer and would hate to lose a sibling. Thank you!
Update: Mom had an ultrasound this morning and confirmed that it was not an ectopic pregnancy, but that the baby measured two weeks smaller than it should with no heartbeat. It was a missed miscarriage. I haven't seen her in person yet since she isn't home yet so I don't know how she's doing and I don't know about my dad either, but I'm heartbroken. Please pray.
Asking for prayers for my brother and his wife and their unborn baby. She plans to terminate due to baby's condition, brother does not want this. I am praying for a miracle that she has a change in heart or at very least, would let me adopt the child. But I also am asking for prayers fory brother as he has to endure this experience and their marriage.
We have hit a really big rough spot, to say the least.
It feels like a lot more than just a rough spot.
My husband is always, always angry at me. Nothing I do is right. He’s mad at me over everything and says such mean things.
I am not looking for advice and being told to leave him.
I am asking to please pray with me in asking God to please dissolve the anger towards me, and to restore his love for me and respect. To please heal whatever is causing him to act this way towards me.
Thank you.
My grandmother is 75 years old and two days ago she had a heart attack and fell down the stairs, she is currently in the hospital on life support with a broken neck and a brain injury. I have been doing what i can and praying for her but if even just one person could keep her in their thoughts and prayers, it would mean the world to us. It may sound selfish to want to pray for her to come back to us, but there is so much she still has to see and do, so much love left to give and receive.
Her name is Mary, she was raised as a devout Irish Catholic and has always held strong in her faith. In 2021 my grandfather was diagnosed with lung cancer and not long after that my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer, against all odds they both beat it. They have been married for 55 years and they deserve more time together. 2 years ago today my cousin had a little boy, the first great-grandchild and they were absolutely overjoyed, today he opened the present she bought for him before her accident. She deserves to watch him grow up together with my grandfather and hopefully to see me and my brothers also get married and add to the family ourselves.
She has been the perfect grandmother, I have never met anyone so loving, caring, attentive, understanding and totally selfless. I can only hope to be half the woman that she is. Our family has been through many struggles and she has always been the glue that held us together, I don't know what we would do without her. If you took the time to read this, thank you very much and if you do keep her in mind or in your prayers, it means more to me and my family than I could ever put into words.
I have made this post in another prayer community, apologies if this goes against community guidelines.
Please pray for my husband. He was laid off from work in May. Please pray that we are able to financially support and care for our children. Please pray that he finds employment soon. I pray to St. Joseph everyday.
Hi, I have been a Catholic all my life, but along the way, I have strayed from the faith, I believe in our faith deeply, there were times, my prayers were answered. But now I seek my fellow brothers and sisters prayers for me. I have been struggling so badly, with work, finances and even my living place. Please pray for me, that I make it through. Thanking you in advance.
I was raised Catholic, but haven't been practicing faithfully since childhood. My spouse is facing the possibility of a massive wave of layoffs at her work. It has really shaken us up. Are there any prayers for people in this situation, or for organizations/companies going through turbulent times? Any saints we could beseech? Thank you.
Here is a list I just shared in /r/Latin of useful websites with prayers and texts in Latin:
(An old and underappreciated site)
(Please review the requirements. The mobile app is super useful!)
(Both of these can be found on the eVetusOrdo app)
(Tons of texts!)
(Plenty of links all about the Ordinary Form Mass!)
(Resources related especially to the Extraordinary Form and pre-Vatican II Liturgy, such as the Graduale Romanum and Liber Usualis.)
If anyone has more they can share, please do!
Prayer Against the Sins of the Flesh (28 July 1998)
"Pray much for My youth . . . many will be lost due to (this) sin . . . I was naked in the sight of all men so that you shall defeat and kill the desires of the flesh which lead to this sin of fornication and adultery. Children, My adversary used this sin to claim all men to himself...Any sinner who constantly prays this prayer will gain true repentance...The more you pray it, the more (souls) will return to me and leave fornication and adultery. Many people will be lost due to the sins of the flesh. Work hard to save souls..."
Holy and merciful Father, Your only- begotten Son is standing naked in the sight of all men, so that Your people will know and fear Your holy law. Accept my humble prayer for all Your people who are living under iniquity, fornication and adultery, that through all the shame and disgrace of Your only-begotten Son, You will touch their lives for repentance and save them. May they, through the Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ, which I plead to fall on their hearts, gain repentance and be saved. Through His shame make them bold for repentance. Amen.
Please pray for my baby. She has been struggling with GI issues and now experiencing pain in her body. Please pray it’s a speedy recovery and she is safe. I’m worried and scared. Amen
The health of my body has changed abruptly since September 2023. I’ve been suffering for months and I don’t think it’s ever going to go away. I don’t know what is wrong with me. My body is constantly restless/tense, and can’t relax (also itching a lot) as well as having urinary problems. I feel like I’m being tortured alive. I have no choice but to endure this unbearable sensation in my body, every second of every day for the rest of my life, because I can’t escape my body. I don’t think the doctors are going to be able to help me, and this terrifies me. I’m having suicidal thoughts because of this condition. I see no solution in sight, I’m giving up hope. Please help me, I’m desperate. I don’t know where else to ask for help. I don’t think I’m strong enough to endure this. Sometimes we take life for granted, until bad things happen to us. If you happen to take the time to read this, please pray for me and my situation. I appreciate all of your responses, God bless you 😇🙏
