Anyone speak Japanese?

[LN724]

I’m very sorry if this isn’t the right place or if I’m even allowed to do this, but I need help translating a petition into Japanese for a Multicultural Mass.

“For all those in leadership roles, that they may use their powers and positions to assure the welfare of those who are most in need, let us pray to the Lord.”

If you could, I would be SO thankful. Either romanji or kana, it would help a lot.
Or if you can redirect me to a place where I can get results, it would also help.
Again, I’m sorry if this is out of place, and to those who can help me, thank you very much. :]

Perhaps one of these might help…the third one might actually give you phonetic pronunciation…

Good luck! (We do this at our parish, too!)

Yes, but not as fluently as some on this forum. Ask Patrick (You can find him in some of the old threads in the Clubhouse sub forums). Oh, and don’t use online translators. They’re not very good.

Why not just ask one of the Japanese members of the congregation? If there are none, then why is there a Japanese petition?

Sounds like another multicultural liturgical gimmick to me…
