Catholic Prayer: Prayer Against Pests

Description:

A good prayer to be said by every farmer, rural or in the city plagued by pests in the garden. This prayer can be said in conjunction with the novena to St. Isidore.

Prayer:

Graciously hear our prayers, we beseech You, O Lord, that we who are justly punished for our sins and must bear the punishment of this plague, may be freed from it for the glory of Your name. By Your power may these injurious animals be driven off so that they will do no harm to any one and will leave our fields and meadows unharmed, and so that the things sprouting and growing in these fields may honor Your majesty and serve our needs. Amen.
