Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in day of battle.

Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;

and do Thou, Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the Power of God,

thrust down to Hell, Satan and all the evil spirits, who roam the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.
