Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Lord, in union with that Divine Intention wherewith Thou didst Thyself praise God, while as Thou wast on earth, I offer these Hours unto Thee.

Lætátus sum in his, quæ dicta sunt mihi: * in domum Dómini íbimus.
2 Stantes erant pedes nostri, * in átriis tuis Jerúsalem.
3 Jerúsalem, quæ ædificátur ut cívitas: * cujus participátio ejus in idípsum.
4 Illuc enim ascendérunt tribus, tribus Dómini: * testimónium Israël ad confiténdum nómini Dómini.
5 Quia illic sedérunt sedes in judício, * sedes super domum David.
6 Rogáte quæ ad pacem sunt Jerúsalem: * et abundántia diligéntibus te:
7 Fiat pax in virtúte tua: * et abundántia in túrribus tuis.

I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: * We shall go into the house of the Lord.
2 Our feet were standing * in thy courts, O Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem, which is built as a city, * which is compact together.
4 For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: * the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.
5 Because their seats have sat in judgment, * seats upon the house of David.
6 Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: * and abundance for them that love thee.
7 Let peace be in thy strength: * and abundance in thy towers.
8 For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, * I spoke peace of thee.

Psalmus 126.
Nisi Dóminus ædificáverit domum, * in vanum laboravérunt qui ædíficant eam.
2 Nisi Dóminus custodíerit civitátem, * frustra vígilat qui custódit eam.
3 Vanum est vobis ante lucem súrgere: * súrgite postquam sedéritis, qui manducátis panem dolóris.
4 Cum déderit diléctis suis somnum: * ecce hæréditas Dómini fílii: merces fructus ventris.
5 Sicut sagíttæ in manu poténtis: * ita fílii excussórum.
6 Beátus vir qui implévit desidérium suum ex ipsis: * non confundétur cum loquétur inimícis suis in porta.

Unless the Lord build the house, * they labour in vain that build it.
2 Unless the Lord keep the city, * he watcheth in vain that keepeth it.
3 It is vain for you to rise before light, * rise ye after you have sitten, you that eat the bread of sorrow.
4 When he shall give sleep to his beloved, * Behold the inheritance of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb.
5 As arrows in the hand of the mighty, * so the children of them that have been shaken.
6 Blessed is the man that hath filled the desire with them; * he shall not be confounded when he shall speak to his enemies in the gate.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

5 Who giveth snow like wool: * scattereth mists like ashes.
6 He sendeth his crystal like morsels: * who shall stand before the face of his cold?
7 He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: * his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.
8 Who declareth his word to Jacob: * his justices and his judgments to Israel.
9 He hath not done in like manner to every nation: * and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.
