The text of the prayer featured in this version is as follows.
Oh my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended You.
I detest all my sins because of your just punishments.
But most of all because they offend you, my God,
who are all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve with the help of Your grace to sin no more and to avoid the near occasion of sin. Amen.

But most of all because they offend you, my God,
who are all good and deserving of all my love.
