Veníte, exsultémus Dómino, jubilémus Deo salutári nostro: præoccupémus fáciem ejus in confessióne, et in psalmis jubilémus ei.

Hail Mary, full of grace: * The Lord is with thee.

Quóniam Deus magnus Dóminus, et Rex magnus super omnes deos: quóniam non repéllet Dóminus plebem suam, quia in manu ejus sunt omnes fines terræ, et altitúdines móntium ipse cónspicit.

For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods: for the Lord will not cast off His people: for in His hand are all the ends of the earth; and the heights of the hills are His also.

Dóminus tecum.

The Lord is with thee.

Quóniam ipsíus est mare, et ipse fecit illud, et áridam fundavérunt manus ejus: (Flexis genibus) veníte adorémus, et procidámus ante Deum: plorémus coram Dómino, qui fecit nos, quia ipse est Dóminus Deus noster: nos autem pópulus ejus, et oves páscuæ ejus.

For the sea is His, and He made it: and His hands formed the dry land: O come, let us worship and fall down; let us cry unto the Lord our Maker. For He is the Lord our God; and we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.

Hail Mary, full of grace: * The Lord is with thee.

Hódie si vocem ejus audiéritis, nolíte obduráre corda vestra, sicut in exacerbatióne secúndum diem tentatiónis in desérto: ubi tentavérunt me patres vestri, probavérunt et vidérunt ópera mea.

To-day if ye will hear His voice, harden not your heart; as in in the Provocation, and as in the day of Temptation in the wilderness: when your fathers tempted Me, proved Me, and saw My works.

Dóminus tecum.

The Lord is with thee.

Quadragínta annis próximus fui generatióni huic, et dixi, Semper hi errant corde: ipsi vero non cognovérunt vias meas, quibus jurávi in ira mea, si introíbunt in réquiem meam.

Forty years long was I grieved with that generation and said, It is a people that do alway err in their heart, and they have not known My ways: unto whom I sware in My wrath that they should not enter into My rest.

Psalmus 8.

Dómine Dóminus noster, * quam admirábile est nomen tuum in univérsa terra!
2 Quóniam eleváta est magnificéntia tua, * super cœlos.
3 Ex ore infántium et lacténtium perfecísti laudem propter inimícos tuos, * ut déstruas inimícum et ultórem.
4 Quóniam vidébo cœlos tuos, ópera digitórum tuórum: * lunam et stellas, quæ tu fundásti.
5 Quid est homo, quod memor es ejus? * aut fílius hóminis, quóniam vísitas eum?
6 Minuísti eum paulo minus ab Angelis, glória et honóre coronásti eum: * et constituísti eum super ópera mánuum tuárum.
7 Omnia subjecísti sub pédibus ejus, * oves et boves univérsas: ínsuper et pécora campi.
8 Vólucres cœli, et pisces maris, * qui perámbulant sémitas maris.
9 Dómine Dóminus noster, * quam admirábile est nomen tuum in univérsa terra!
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

O Lord our Lord, * how admirable is thy name in the whole earth!
2 For thy magnificence is elevated * above the heavens.
3 Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise, because of thy enemies, * that thou mayst destroy the enemy and the avenger.
4 For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: * the moon and the stars which thou hast founded.
5 What is man that thou art mindful of him? * or the son of man that thou visitest him?
6 Thou hast made him a little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour: * And hast set him over the works of thy hands.
7 Thou hast subjected all things under his feet, * all sheep and oxen: moreover the beasts also of the fields.
8 The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, * that pass through the paths of the sea.
9 O Lord our Lord, * how admirable is thy name in all the earth!
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.

Benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui.

Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

Sicut myrrha.

Like the best myrrh,

Psalmus 18.

Cœli enárrant glóriam Dei, * et ópera mánuum ejus annúntiat firmaméntum.
2 Dies diéi erúctat verbum, * et nox nocti índicat sciéntiam.
3 Non sunt loquélæ, neque sermónes, * quorum non audiántur voces eórum.
4 In omnem terram exívit sonus eórum: * et in fines orbis terræ verba eórum.
5 In sole pósuit tabernáculum suum: * et ipse tamquam sponsus procédens de thálamo suo:
6 Exsultávit ut gigas ad curréndam viam, * a summo cœlo egréssio ejus:
7 Et occúrsus ejus usque ad summum ejus: * nec est qui se abscóndat a calóre ejus.
8 Lex Dómini immaculáta convértens ánimas: * testimónium Dómini fidéle, sapiéntiam præstans párvulis.
9 Justítiæ Dómini rectæ, lætificántes corda: * præcéptum Dómini lúcidum: illúminans óculos.
10 Timor Dómini sanctus, pérmanens in sǽculum sǽculi: * judícia Dómini vera, justificáta in semetípsa.
11 Desiderabília super aurum et lápidem pretiósum multum: * et dulcióra super mel et favum.
12 Etenim servus tuus custódit ea, * in custodiéndis illis retribútio multa.
13 Delícta quis intélligit? ab occúltis meis munda me: * et ab aliénis parce servo tuo.
14 Si mei non fúerint domináti, tunc immaculátus ero: * et emundábor a delícto máximo.
15 Et erunt ut compláceant elóquia oris mei: * et meditátio cordis mei in conspéctu tuo semper.
16 Dómine adjútor meus, * et redémptor meus.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

The heavens shew forth the glory of God, * and the firmament declareth the work of his hands.
2 Day to day uttereth speech, * and night to night sheweth knowledge.
3 There are no speeches nor languages, * where their voices are not heard.
4 Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: * and their words unto the ends of the world.
5 He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: * and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber,
6 Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way: * His going out is from the end of heaven,
7 And his circuit even to the end thereof: * and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.
8 The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: * the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones.
9 The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: * the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes.
10 The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: * the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves.
11 More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: * and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
12 For thy servant keepeth them, * and in keeping them there is a great reward.
13 Who can understand sins? from my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord: * And from those of others spare thy servant.
14 If they shall have no dominion over me, then shall I be without spot: * and I shall be cleansed from the greatest sin.
15 And the words of my mouth shall be such as may please: * and the meditation of my heart always in thy sight.
16 O Lord, my helper, * and my redeemer.
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.

Sicut myrrha elécta odórem dedísti suavitátis sancta Dei Génitrix.

Like the best myrrh, O Holy Mother of God, thou hast yielded a pleasant odour.

Psalmus 23.

Dómini est terra, et plenitúdo ejus: * orbis terrárum, et univérsi qui hábitant in eo.
2 Quia ipse super mária fundávit eum: * et super flúmina præparávit eum.
3 Quis ascéndet in montem Dómini? * aut quis stabit in loco sancto ejus?
4 Innocens mánibus et mundo corde, † qui non accépit in vano ánimam suam, * nec jurávit in dolo próximo suo.
5 Hic accípiet benedictiónem a Dómino: * et misericórdiam a Deo salutári suo.
6 Hæc est generátio quæréntium eum, * quæréntium fáciem Dei Jacob.
7 Attóllite portas príncipes vestras, † et elevámini portæ æternáles: * et introíbit Rex glóriæ.
8 Quis est iste Rex glóriæ? † Dóminus fortis et potens: * Dóminus potens in prǽlio.
9 Attóllite portas príncipes vestras, † et elevámini portæ æternáles: * et introíbit Rex glóriæ.
10 Quis est iste Rex glóriæ? * Dóminus virtútum ipse est Rex glóriæ.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof: * the world, and all they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas; * and hath prepared it upon the rivers.
3 Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord: * or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 The innocent in hands, and clean of heart, † who hath not taken his soul in vain, * nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbour.
5 He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, * and mercy from God his Saviour.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, * of them that seek the face of the God of Jacob.
7 Lift up your gates, O ye princes, † and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: * and the King of Glory shall enter in.
8 Who is this King of Glory? † the Lord who is strong and mighty: * the Lord mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your gates, O ye princes, † and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: * and the King of Glory shall enter in.
10 Who is this King of Glory? * the Lord of hosts, he is the King of Glory.
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.

Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.

6 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: * and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.
7 If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning: * because thou hast been my helper.
8 And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings: my soul hath stuck close to thee: * thy right hand hath received me.
9 But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth: * they shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.
10 But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: * because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.

1 May God have mercy on us, and bless us: * may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us.
2 That we may know thy way upon earth: * thy salvation in all nations.
3 Let people confess to thee, O God: * let all people give praise to thee.
4 Let the nations be glad and rejoice: * for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth.
5 Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee: * the earth hath yielded her fruit.
6 May God, our God bless us, may God bless us: * and all the ends of the earth fear him.
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.

4 That we should be saved from our enemies, * and from the hand of all that hate us:
5 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, * and to remember His holy covenant:
6 The oath which He sware to our father Abraham, * that He would grant unto us,
7 That we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, * might serve Him without fear,
8 In holiness and righteousness before Him * all the days of our life.
9 And thou, child, shalt be called the Prophet of the Highest: * for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways:

Our Father, who art in heaven: hallowed be thy name: thy kingdom come: thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread: and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us: and lead us not into temptation: but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Credo in Spíritum sanctum, sanctam Ecclésiam cathólicam, sanctórum communiónem, remissiónem peccatórum, carnis resurrectiónem, vitam ætérnam. Amen.

I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried: He descended into hell: the third day He rose again from the dead: He ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the Communion of Saints, the Forgiveness of sins, the Resurrection of the body. And the Life everlasting. Amen.

14 Ne avértas fáciem tuam a me: * ne declínes in ira a servo tuo.
15 Adjútor meus esto: * ne derelínquas me, neque despícias me Deus salutáris meus.
16 Quóniam pater meus, et mater mea dereliquérunt me: * Dóminus autem assúmpsit me.
17 Legem pone mihi Dómine in via tua: * et dírige me in sémitam rectam propter inimícos meos.
18 Ne tradíderis me in ánimas tribulántium me: * quóniam insurrexérunt in me testes iníqui, et mentíta est iníquitas sibi.
19 Credo vidére bona Dómini * in terra vivéntium.
20 Exspécta Dóminum, viríliter age: * et confortétur cor tuum, et sústine Dóminum.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

The Lord is my light and my salvation, * whom shall I fear?
2 The Lord is the protector of my life: * of whom shall I be afraid?
3 Whilst the wicked draw near against me, * to eat my flesh.
4 My enemies that trouble me, * have themselves been weakened, and have fallen.
5 If armies in camp should stand together against me, * my heart shall not fear.
If a battle should rise up against me, * in this will I be confident.
7 One thing I have asked of the Lord, this will I seek after; * that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.
8 That I may see the delight of the Lord, * and may visit his temple.
9 For he hath hidden me in his tabernacle; * in the day of evils, he hath protected me in the secret place of his tabernacle.
10 He hath exalted me upon a rock: * and now he hath lifted up my head above my enemies.
11 I have gone round, and have offered up in his tabernacle a sacrifice of jubilation: * I will sing, and recite a psalm to the Lord.
12 Hear, O Lord, my voice, with which I have cried to thee: * have mercy on me and hear me.
13 My heart hath said to thee: My face hath sought thee: * thy face, O Lord, will I still seek.
14 Turn not away thy face from me; * decline not in thy wrath from thy servant.
15 Be thou my helper, * forsake me not; do not thou despise me, O God my Saviour.
16 For my father and my mother have left me: * but the Lord hath taken me up.
17 Set me, O Lord, a law in thy way, * and guide me in the right path, because of my enemies.
18 Deliver me not over to the will of them that trouble me; * for unjust witnesses have risen up against me; and iniquity hath lied to itself.
19 I believe to see the good things of the Lord * in the land of the living.
20 Expect the Lord, do manfully, and let thy heart take courage, and wait thou for the Lord.
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.

Psalmus 27.

Ad te Dómine clamábo, Deus meus ne síleas a me: * nequándo táceas a me, et assimilábor descendéntibus in lacum.
2 Exaúdi Dómine vocem deprecatiónis meæ dum oro ad te: * dum extóllo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum.
3 Ne simul trahas me cum peccatóribus: * et cum operántibus iniquitátem ne perdas me:
4 Qui loquúntur pacem cum próximo suo, * mala autem in córdibus eórum.
5 Da illis secúndum ópera eórum, * et secúndum nequítiam adinventiónum ipsórum.
6 Secúndum ópera mánuum eórum tríbue illis: * redde retributiónem eórum ipsis.
7 Quóniam non intellexérunt ópera Dómini, et in ópera mánuum ejus * déstrues illos, et non ædificábis eos.
8 Benedíctus Dóminus: * quóniam exaudívit vocem deprecatiónis meæ.
9 Dóminus adjútor meus, et protéctor meus: * in ipso sperávit cor meum, et adjútus sum.
10 Et reflóruit caro mea: * et ex voluntáte mea confitébor ei.
11 Dóminus fortitúdo plebis suæ: * et protéctor salvatiónum Christi sui est.
12 Salvum fac pópulum tuum Dómine, et bénedic hæreditáti tuæ: * et rege eos, et extólle illos usque in ætérnum.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Unto thee will I cry, O Lord: O my God, be not thou silent to me: * lest thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
2 Hear, O Lord, the voice of my supplication, when I pray to thee; * when I lift up my hands to thy holy temple.
3 Draw me not away together with the wicked; * and with the workers of iniquity destroy me not:
4 Who speak peace with their neighbour, * but evils are in their hearts.
5 Give them according to their works, * and according to the wickedness of their inventions.
6 According to the works of their hands give thou to them: * render to them their reward.
7 Because they have not understood the works of the Lord, and the operations of his hands: * thou shalt destroy them, and shalt not build them up.
8 Blessed be the Lord, * for he hath heard the voice of my supplication.
9 The Lord is my helper and my protector: * in him hath my heart confided, and I have been helped.
10 And my flesh hath flourished again, * and with my will I will give praise to him.
11 The Lord is the strength of his people, * and the protector of the salvation of his anointed.
12 Save, O Lord, thy people, and bless thy inheritance: * and rule them and exalt them for ever.
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.

Dóminus defénsor vitæ meæ.

The Lord is the defence of my life.

Adoráte.

Worship.

Psalmus 28.

Afférte Dómino fílii Dei: * afférte Dómino fílios aríetum.
2 Afférte Dómino glóriam et honórem, afférte Dómino glóriam nómini ejus: * adoráte Dóminum in átrio sancto ejus.
3 Vox Dómini super aquas, Deus majestátis intónuit: * Dóminus super aquas multas.
4 Vox Dómini in virtúte: * vox Dómini in magnificéntia.
5 Vox Dómini confringéntis cedros: * et confrínget Dóminus cedros Líbani:
6 Et commínuet eas tamquam vítulum Líbani: * et diléctus quemádmodum fílius unicórnium.
7 Vox Dómini intercidéntis flammam ignis: * vox Dómini concutiéntis desértum: et commovébit Dóminus desértum Cades.
8 Vox Dómini præparántis cervos, et revelábit condénsa: * et in templo ejus omnes dicent glóriam.
9 Dóminus dilúvium inhabitáre facit: * et sedébit Dóminus rex in ætérnum.
10 Dóminus virtútem pópulo suo dabit: * Dóminus benedícet pópulo suo in pace.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Bring to the Lord, O ye children of God: * bring to the Lord the offspring of rams.
2 Bring to the Lord glory and honour: bring to the Lord glory to his name: * adore ye the Lord in his holy court.
3 The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of majesty hath thundered, * The Lord is upon many waters.
4 The voice of the Lord is in power; * the voice of the Lord in magnificence.
5 The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: * yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus.
6 And shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, * and as the beloved son of unicorns.
7 The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire: * The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades.
8 The voice of the Lord prepareth the stags: and he will discover the thick woods: * and in his temple all shall speak his glory.
9 The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: * and the Lord shall sit king for ever.
10 The Lord will give strength to his people: * the Lord will bless his people with peace.
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.

Psalmus 29.

Exaltábo te Dómine quóniam suscepísti me: * nec delectásti inimícos meos super me.
2 Dómine Deus meus clamávi ad te, * et sanásti me.
3 Dómine eduxísti ab inférno ánimam meam: * salvásti me a descendéntibus in lacum.
4 Psállite Dómino sancti ejus: * et confitémini memóriæ sanctitátis ejus.
5 Quóniam ira in indignatióne ejus: * et vita in voluntáte ejus.
6 Ad vésperum demorábitur fletus: * et ad matutínum lætítia.
7 Ego autem dixi in abundántia mea: * Non movébor in ætérnum.
8 Dómine in voluntáte tua, * præstitísti decóri meo virtútem.
9 Avertísti fáciem tuam a me, * et factus sum conturbátus.
10 Ad te Dómine clamábo: * et ad Deum meum deprecábor.
11 Quæ utílitas in sánguine meo, * dum descéndo in corruptiónem?
12 Numquid confitébitur tibi pulvis, * aut annuntiábit veritátem tuam?
13 Audívit Dóminus, et misértus est mei: * Dóminus factus est adjútor meus.
14 Convertísti planctum meum in gaúdium mihi: * conscidísti saccum meum, et circumdedísti me lætítia:
15 Ut cantet tibi glória mea, et non compúngar: * Dómine Deus meus in ætérnum confitébor tibi.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

I will extol thee, O Lord, for thou hast upheld me: * and hast not made my enemies to rejoice over me.
2 O Lord my God, I have cried to thee, * and thou hast healed me.
3 Thou hast brought forth, O Lord, my soul from hell: * thou hast saved me from them that go down into the pit.
4 Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: * and give praise to the memory of his holiness.
5 For wrath is in his indignation; * and life in his good will.
6 In the evening weeping shall have place, * and in the morning gladness.
7 And in my abundance I said: * I shall never be moved.
8 O Lord, in thy favour, * thou gavest strength to my beauty.
9 Thou turnedst away thy face from me, * and I became troubled.
10 To thee, O Lord, will I cry: * and I will make supplication to my God.
11 What profit is there in my blood, * whilst I go down to corruption?
12 Shall dust confess to thee, * or declare thy truth?
13 The Lord hath heard, and hath had mercy on me: * the Lord became my helper.
14 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: * thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness:
15 To the end that my glory may sing to thee, and I may not regret: * O Lord my God, I will give praise to thee for ever.
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.

Adoráte Dóminum in aula sancta ejus.

Worship the Lord in His holy courts.

In tua justítia.

In Thy righteousness.

Psalmus 30.

In te Dómine sperávi, non confúndar in ætérnum: * in justítia tua líbera me.
2 Inclína ad me aurem tuam, * accélera ut éruas me.
3 Esto mihi in Deum protectórem: et in domum refúgii, * ut salvum me fácias.
4 Quóniam fortitúdo mea, et refúgium meum es tu: * et propter nomen tuum dedúces me, et enútries me.
5 Edúces me de láqueo hoc, quem abscondérunt mihi: * quóniam tu es protéctor meus.
6 In manus tuas comméndo spíritum meum: * redemísti me Dómine Deus veritátis.
7 Odísti observántes vanitátes, * supervácue.
8 Ego autem in Dómino sperávi: * exsultábo, et lætábor in misericórdia tua.
9 Quóniam respexísti humilitátem meam, * salvásti de necessitátibus ánimam meam.
10 Nec conclusísti me in mánibus inimíci: * statuísti in loco spatióso pedes meos.
11 Miserére mei Dómine quóniam tríbulor: † conturbátus est in ira óculus meus, * ánima mea, et venter meus:
12 Quóniam defécit in dolóre vita mea: * et anni mei in gemítibus.
13 Infirmáta est in paupertáte virtus mea: * et ossa mea conturbáta sunt.
14 Super omnes inimícos meos factus sum oppróbrium et vicínis meis valde: * et timor notis meis.
15 Qui vidébant me, foras fugérunt a me: * oblivióni datus sum, tamquam mórtuus a corde.
16 Factus sum tamquam vas pérditum: * quóniam audívi vituperatiónem multórum commorántium in circúitu.
17 In eo dum convenírent simul advérsum me, * accípere ánimam meam consiliáti sunt.
18 Ego autem in te sperávi Dómine: † dixi: Deus meus es tu: * in mánibus tuis sortes meæ.
19 Eripe me de manu inimicórum meórum, * et a persequéntibus me.
20 Illústra fáciem tuam super servum tuum, † salvum me fac in misericórdia tua: * Dómine non confúndar, quóniam invocávi te.
21 Erubéscant ímpii, et deducántur in inférnum: * muta fiant lábia dolósa.
22 Quæ loquúntur advérsus justum iniquitátem, * in supérbia, et in abusióne.
23 Quam magna multitúdo dulcédinis tuæ Dómine, * quam abscondísti timéntibus te.
24 Perfecísti eis, qui sperant in te, * in conspéctu filiórum hóminum.
25 Abscóndes eos in abscóndito faciéi tuæ * a conturbatióne hóminum.
26 Próteges eos in tabernáculo tuo * a contradictióne linguárum.
27 Benedíctus Dóminus: * quóniam mirificávit misericórdiam suam mihi in civitáte muníta.
28 Ego autem dixi in excéssu mentis meæ: * Projéctus sum a fácie oculórum tuórum.
29 Ideo exaudísti vocem oratiónis meæ, * dum clamárem ad te.
30 Dilígite Dóminum omnes sancti ejus: † quóniam veritátem requíret Dóminus, * et retríbuet abundánter faciéntibus supérbiam.
31 Viríliter ágite, et confortétur cor vestrum, * omnes qui sperátis in Dómino.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: * deliver me in thy justice.
2 Bow down thy ear to me: * make haste to deliver me.
3 Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, * to save me.
4 For thou art my strength and my refuge; * and for thy name's sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.
5 Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: * for thou art my protector.
6 Into thy hands I commend my spirit: * thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth.
7 Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, * to no purpose.
8 But I have hoped in the Lord: * I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy.
9 For thou hast regarded my humility, * thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.
10 And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: * thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.
11 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: † my eye is troubled with wrath, * my soul, and my belly:
12 For my life is wasted with grief: * and my years in sighs.
13 My strength is weakened through poverty * and my bones are disturbed.
14 I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; * and a fear to my acquaintance.
15 They that saw me without fled from me. * I am forgotten as one dead from the heart.
16 I am become as a vessel that is destroyed. * For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about.
17 While they assembled together against me, * they consulted to take away my life.
18 But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: † I said: Thou art my God. * My lots are in thy hands.
19 Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; * and from them that persecute me.
20 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; † save me in thy mercy. * Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee.
21 Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell. * Let deceitful lips be made dumb.
22 Which speak iniquity against the just, * with pride and abuse.
23 O how great is the multitude of thy sweetness, O Lord, * which thou hast hidden for them that fear thee!
24 Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, * in the sight of the sons of men.
25 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy face, * from the disturbance of men.
26 Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle * from the contradiction of tongues.
27 Blessed be the Lord, * for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.
28 But I said in the excess of my mind: * I am cast away from before thy eyes.
29 Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, * when I cried to thee.
30 O love the Lord, all ye his saints: † for the Lord will require truth, * and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.
31 Do ye manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, * all ye that hope in the Lord.
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.

Psalmus 31.

Beáti quorum remíssæ sunt iniquitátes: * et quorum tecta sunt peccáta.
2 Beátus vir, cui non imputávit Dóminus peccátum, * nec est in spíritu ejus dolus.
3 Quóniam tácui, inveteravérunt ossa mea, * dum clamárem tota die.
4 Quóniam die ac nocte graváta est super me manus tua: * convérsus sum in ærúmna mea, dum confígitur spina.
5 Delíctum meum cógnitum tibi feci: * et injustítiam meam non abscóndi.
6 Dixi: Confitébor advérsum me injustítiam meam Dómino: * et tu remisísti impietátem peccáti mei.
7 Pro hac orábit ad te omnis sanctus, * in témpore opportúno.
8 Verúmtamen in dilúvio aquárum multárum, * ad eum non approximábunt.
9 Tu es refúgium meum a tribulatióne, quæ circúmdedit me: * exsultátio mea érue me a circumdántibus me.
10 Intelléctum tibi dabo, et ínstruam te in via hac, qua gradiéris: * firmábo super te óculos meos.
11 Nolíte fíeri sicut equus et mulus, * quibus non est intelléctus.
12 In camo et fræno maxíllas eórum constrínge, * qui non appróximant ad te.
13 Multa flagélla peccatóris, * sperántem autem in Dómino misericórdia circúmdabit.
14 Lætámini in Dómino et exsultáte justi, * et gloriámini omnes recti corde.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, * and whose sins are covered.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin, * and in whose spirit there is no guile.
3 Because I was silent my bones grew old; * whilst I cried out all the day long.
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: * I am turned in my anguish, whilst the thorn is fastened.
5 I have acknowledged my sin to thee, * and my injustice I have not concealed.
6 I said I will confess against myself my injustice to the Lord: * and thou hast forgiven the wickedness of my sin.
7 For this shall every one that is holy pray to thee * in a seasonable time.
8 And yet in a flood of many waters, * they shall not come nigh unto him.
9 Thou art my refuge from the trouble which hath encompassed me: * my joy, deliver me from them that surround me.
10 I will give thee understanding, and I will instruct thee in this way, in which thou shalt go: * I will fix my eyes upon thee.
11 Do not become like the horse and the mule, * who have no understanding.
12 With bit and bridle bind fast their jaws, * who come not near unto thee.
13 Many are the scourges of the sinner, * but mercy shall encompass him that hopeth in the Lord.
14 Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye just, * and glory, all ye right of heart.
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.

In tua justítia líbera me Dómine.

In Thy righteousness deliver me.

Rectos decet.

For the unrighteous is deserved,

Psalmus 32.

Exsultáte justi in Dómino: * rectos decet collaudátio.
2 Confitémini Dómino in cíthara: * in psaltério decem chordárum psállite illi.
3 Cantáte ei cánticum novum: * bene psállite ei in vociferatióne.
4 Quia rectum est verbum Dómini, * et ómnia ópera ejus in fide.
5 Díligit misericórdiam et judícium: * misericórdia Dómini plena est terra.
6 Verbo Dómini cœli firmáti sunt: * et spíritu oris ejus omnis virtus eórum.
7 Cóngregans sicut in utre aquas maris: * ponens in thesaúris abýssos.
8 Tímeat Dóminum omnis terra: * ab eo autem commoveántur omnes inhabitántes orbem.
9 Quóniam ipse dixit, et facta sunt: * ipse mandávit, et creáta sunt.
10 Dóminus díssipat consília Géntium: * réprobat autem cogitatiónes populórum, et réprobat consília príncipum.
11 Consílium autem Dómini in ætérnum manet: * cogitatiónes cordis ejus in generatióne et generatiónem.
12 Beáta gens, cujus est Dóminus, Deus ejus: * pópulus, quem elégit in hæreditátem sibi.
13 De cœlo respéxit Dóminus: * vidit omnes fílios hóminum.
14 De præparáto habitáculo suo * respéxit super omnes, qui hábitant terram.
15 Qui finxit sigillátim corda eórum: * qui intélligit ómnia ópera eórum.
16 Non salvátur rex per multam virtútem: * et gigas non salvábitur in multitúdine virtútis suæ.
17 Fallax equus ad salútem: * in abundántia autem virtútis suæ non salvábitur.
18 Ecce óculi Dómini super metuéntes eum: * et in eis, qui sperant super misericórdia ejus:
19 Ut éruat a morte ánimas eórum: * et alat eos in fame.
20 Anima nostra sústinet Dóminum: * quóniam adjútor et protéctor noster est.
21 Quia in eo lætábitur cor nostrum: * et in nómine sancto ejus sperávimus.
22 Fiat misericórdia tua Dómine super nos: * quemádmodum sperávimus in te.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: * praise becometh the upright.
2 Give praise to the Lord on the harp; * sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.
3 Sing to him a new canticle, * sing well unto him with a loud noise.
4 For the word of the Lord is right, * and all his works are done with faithfulness.
5 He loveth mercy and judgment; * the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; * and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth:
7 Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; * laying up the depths in storehouses.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord, * and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him.
9 For he spoke and they were made: * he commanded and they were created.
10 The Lord bringeth to naught the counsels of nations; * and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes.
11 But the counsel of the Lord standeth for ever: * the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord: * the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.
13 The Lord hath looked from heaven: * he hath beheld all the sons of men.
14 From his habitation which he hath prepared, * he hath looked upon all that dwell on the earth.
15 He who hath made the hearts of every one of them: * who understandeth all their works.
16 The king is not saved by a great army: * nor shall the giant be saved by his own great strength.
17 Vain is the horse for safety: * neither shall he be saved by the abundance of his strength.
18 Behold the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him: * and on them that hope in his mercy.
19 To deliver their souls from death; * and feed them in famine.
20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: * for he is our helper and protector.
21 For in him our heart shall rejoice: * and in his holy name we have trusted.
22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, * as we have hoped in thee.
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.

Psalmus 33.

Benedícam Dóminum in omni témpore: * semper laus ejus in ore meo.
2 In Dómino laudábitur ánima mea: * aúdiant mansuéti, et læténtur.
3 Magnificáte Dóminum mecum: * et exaltémus nomen ejus in idípsum.
4 Exquisívi Dóminum, et exaudívit me: * et ex ómnibus tribulatiónibus meis erípuit me.
5 Accédite ad eum, et illuminámini: * et fácies vestræ non confundéntur.
6 Iste pauper clamávit, et Dóminus exaudívit eum: * et de ómnibus tribulatiónibus ejus salvávit eum.
7 Immíttet Angelus Dómini in circúitu timéntium eum: * et erípiet eos.
8 Gustáte et vidéte quóniam suávis est Dóminus: * beátus vir, qui sperat in eo.
9 Timéte Dóminum omnes sancti ejus: * quóniam non est inópia timéntibus eum.
10 Dívites eguérunt et esuriérunt: * inquiréntes autem Dóminum non minuéntur omni bono.
11 Veníte fílii audíte me: * timórem Dómini docébo vos.
12 Quis est homo qui vult vitam: * díligit dies vidére bonos?
13 Próhibe linguam tuam a malo: * et lábia tua ne loquántur dolum.
14 Divérte a malo, et fac bonum: * inquíre pacem, et perséquere eam.
15 Oculi Dómini super justos: * et aures ejus in preces eórum.
16 Vultus autem Dómini super faciéntes mala: * ut perdat de terra memóriam eórum.
17 Clamavérunt justi, et Dóminus exaudívit eos: * et ex ómnibus tribulatiónibus eórum liberávit eos.
18 Juxta est Dóminus iis, qui tribuláto sunt corde: * et húmiles spíritu salvábit.
19 Multæ tribulatiónes justórum: * et de ómnibus his liberábit eos Dóminus.
20 Custódit Dóminus ómnia ossa eórum: * unum ex his non conterétur.
21 Mors peccatórum péssima: * et qui odérunt justum, delínquent.
22 Rédimet Dóminus ánimas servórum suórum: * et non delínquent omnes qui sperant in eo.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

I will bless the Lord at all times, * his praise shall be always in my mouth.
2 In the Lord shall my soul be praised: * let the meek hear and rejoice.
3 O magnify the Lord with me; * and let us extol his name together.
4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me; * and he delivered me from all my troubles.
5 Come ye to him and be enlightened: * and your faces shall not be confounded.
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him: * and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the Lord shall encamp round about them that fear him: * and shall deliver them.
8 O taste, and see that the Lord is sweet: * blessed is the man that hopeth in him.
9 Fear the Lord, all ye his saints: * for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 The rich have wanted, and have suffered hunger: * but they that seek the Lord shall not be deprived of any good.
11 Come, children, hearken to me: * I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 Who is the man that desireth life: * who loveth to see good days?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, * and thy lips from speaking guile.
14 Turn away from evil and do good: * seek after peace and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the Lord are upon the just: * and his ears unto their prayers.
16 But the countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil things: * to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The just cried, and the Lord heard them: * and delivered them out of all their troubles.
18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: * and he will save the humble of spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the just; * but out of them all will the Lord deliver them.
20 The Lord keepeth all their bones, * not one of them shall be broken.
21 The death of the wicked is very evil: * and they that hate the just shall be guilty.
22 The Lord will redeem the souls of his servants: * and none of them that trust in him shall offend.
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.

Psalmus 34.

Júdica Dómine nocéntes me, * expúgna impugnántes me.
2 Apprehénde arma et scutum: * et exsúrge in adjutórium mihi.
3 Effúnde frámeam, et conclúde advérsus eos, qui persequúntur me: * dic ánimæ meæ: Salus tua ego sum.
4 Confundántur et revereántur, * quæréntes ánimam meam.
5 Avertántur retrórsum, et confundántur * cogitántes mihi mala.
6 Fiant tamquam pulvis ante fáciem venti: * et Angelus Dómini coárctans eos.
7 Fiat via illórum ténebræ et lúbricum: * et Angelus Dómini pérsequens eos.
8 Quóniam gratis abscondérunt mihi intéritum láquei sui: * supervácue exprobravérunt ánimam meam.
9 Véniat illi láqueus, quem ignórat: et cáptio, quam abscóndit, apprehéndat eum: * et in láqueum cadat in ipsum.
10 Anima autem mea exsultábit in Dómino: * et delectábitur super salutári suo.
11 Omnia ossa mea dicent: * Dómine, quis símilis tibi?
12 Erípiens ínopem de manu fortiórum ejus: * egénum et paúperem a diripiéntibus eum.
13 Surgéntes testes iníqui, * quæ ignorábam interrogábant me.
14 Retribuébant mihi mala pro bonis: * sterilitátem ánimæ meæ.
15 Ego autem cum mihi molésti essent, * induébar cilício.
16 Humiliábam in jejúnio ánimam meam: * et orátio mea in sinu meo convertétur.
17 Quasi próximum, et quasi fratrem nostrum, sic complacébam: * quasi lugens et contristátus, sic humiliábar.
18 Et advérsum me lætáti sunt, et convenérunt: * congregáta sunt super me flagélla, et ignorávi.
19 Dissipáti sunt, nec compúncti, tentavérunt me, subsannavérunt me subsannatióne: * frenduérunt super me déntibus suis.
20 Dómine quando respícies? * restítue ánimam meam a malignitáte eórum, a leónibus únicam meam.
21 Confitébor tibi in ecclésia magna, * in pópulo gravi laudábo te.
22 Non supergaúdeant mihi qui adversántur mihi iníque: * qui odérunt me gratis et ánnuunt óculis.
23 Quóniam mihi quidem pacífice loquebántur: * et in iracúndia terræ loquéntes, dolos cogitábant.
24 Et dilatavérunt super me os suum: * dixérunt: Euge, euge, vidérunt óculi nostri.
25 Vidísti Dómine, ne síleas: * Dómine ne discédas a me.
26 Exsúrge et inténde judício meo: * Deus meus, et Dóminus meus in causam meam.
27 Júdica me secúndum justítiam tuam Dómine Deus meus, * et non supergaúdeant mihi.
28 Non dicant in córdibus suis: Euge, euge, ánimæ nostræ: * nec dicant: Devorávimus eum.
29 Erubéscant, et revereántur simul, * qui gratulántur malis meis.
30 Induántur confusióne et reveréntia * qui magna loquúntur super me.
31 Exsúltent et læténtur qui volunt justítiam meam: * et dicant semper: Magnificétur Dóminus, qui volunt pacem servi ejus.
32 Et lingua mea meditábitur justítiam tuam, * tota die laudem tuam.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Judge thou, O Lord, them that wrong me: * overthrow them that fight against me.
2 Take hold of arms and shield: * and rise up to help me.
3 Bring out the sword, and shut up the way against them that persecute me: * say to my soul: I am thy salvation.
4 Let them be confounded and ashamed * that seek after my soul.
5 Let them be turned back and be confounded * that devise against me.
6 Let them become as dust before the wind: * and let the angel of the Lord straiten them.
7 Let their way become dark and slippery; * and let the angel of the Lord pursue them.
8 For without cause they have hidden their net for me unto destruction: * without cause they have upbraided my soul.
9 Let the snare which he knoweth not come upon him: and let the net which he hath hidden catch him: * and into that very snare let them fall.
10 But my soul shall rejoice in the Lord; * and shall be delighted in his salvation.
11 All my bones shall say: Lord, * who is like to thee?
12 Who deliverest the poor from the hand of them that are stronger than he; * the needy and the poor from them that strip him.
13 Unjust witnesses rising up * have asked me things I knew not.
14 They repaid me evil for good: * to the depriving me of my soul.
15 But as for me, when they were troublesome to me, * I was clothed with haircloth.
16 I humbled my soul with fasting; * and my prayer shall be turned into my bosom.
17 As a neighbour and as an own brother, so did I please: * as one mourning and sorrowful so was I humbled.
18 But they rejoiced against me, and came together: * scourges were gathered together upon me, and I knew not.
19 They were separated, and repented not: they tempted me, they scoffed at me with scorn: * they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
20 Lord, when wilt thou look upon me? * rescue thou my soul from their malice: my only one from the lions.
21 I will give thanks to thee in a great church; * I will praise thee in a strong people.
22 Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: * who have hated me without cause, and wink with the eyes.
23 For they spoke indeed peaceably to me; * and speaking in the anger of the earth they devised guile.
24 And they opened their mouth wide against me; * they said: Well done, well done, our eyes have seen it.
25 Thou hast seen, O Lord, be not thou silent: * O Lord, depart not from me.
26 Arise, and be attentive to my judgment: * to my cause, my God, and my Lord.
27 Judge me, O Lord my God according to thy justice, * and let them not rejoice over me.
28 Let them not say in their hearts: It is well, it is well, to our mind: * neither let them say: We have swallowed him up.
29 Let them blush: and be ashamed together, * who rejoice at my evils.
30 Let them be clothed with confusion and shame, * who speak great things against me.
31 Let them rejoice and be glad, who are well pleased with my justice, * and let them say always: The Lord be magnified, who delights in the peace of his servant.
32 And my tongue shall meditate thy justice, * thy praise all the day long.
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.

Psalmus 35.

Dixit injústus ut delínquat in semetípso: * non est timor Dei ante óculos ejus.
2 Quóniam dolóse egit in conspéctu ejus: * ut inveniátur iníquitas ejus ad ódium.
3 Verba oris ejus iníquitas, et dolus: * nóluit intellígere ut bene ágeret.
4 Iniquitátem meditátus est in cubíli suo: * ástitit omni viæ non bonæ, malítiam autem non odívit.
5 Dómine in cœlo misericórdia tua: * et véritas tua usque ad nubes.
6 Justítia tua sicut montes Dei: * judícia tua abýssus multa.
7 Hómines, et juménta salvábis Dómine: * quemádmodum multiplicásti misericórdiam tuam Deus.
8 Fílii autem hóminum, * in tégmine alárum tuárum sperábunt.
9 Inebriabúntur ab ubertáte domus tuæ: * et torrénte voluptátis tuæ potábis eos.
10 Quóniam apud te est fons vitæ: * et in lúmine tuo vidébimus lumen.
11 Præténde misericórdiam tuam sciéntibus te, * et justítiam tuam his, qui recto sunt corde.
12 Non véniat mihi pes supérbiæ: * et manus peccatóris non móveat me.
13 Ibi cecidérunt qui operántur iniquitátem: * expúlsi sunt, nec potuérunt stare.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin: * there is no fear of God before his eyes.
2 For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, * that his iniquity may be found unto hatred.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile: * he would not understand that he might do well.
4 He hath devised iniquity on his bed, * he hath set himself on every way that is not good: but evil he hath not hated.
5 O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, * and thy truth reacheth, even to the clouds.
6 Thy justice is as the mountains of God, * thy judgments are a great deep.
7 Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord: * O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God!
8 But the children of men * shall put their trust under the covert of thy wings.
9 They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; * and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure.
10 For with thee is the fountain of life; * and in thy light we shall see light.
11 Extend thy mercy to them that know thee, * and thy justice to them that are right in heart.
12 Let not the foot of pride come to me, * and let not the hand of the sinner move me.
13 There the workers of iniquity are fallen, * they are cast out, and could not stand.
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.

Psalmus 36.

Noli æmulári in malignántibus: * neque zeláveris faciéntes iniquitátem.
2 Quóniam tamquam fœnum velóciter aréscent: * et quemádmodum ólera herbárum cito décident.
3 Spera in Dómino, et fac bonitátem: * et inhábita terram, et pascéris in divítiis ejus.
4 Delectáre in Dómino: * et dabit tibi petitiónes cordis tui.
5 Revéla Dómino viam tuam, et spera in eo: * ipse fáciet.
6 Et edúcet quasi lumen justítiam tuam: et judícium tuum tamquam merídiem: * súbditus esto Dómino, et ora eum.
7 Noli æmulári in eo, qui prosperátur in via sua: * hómine faciénte injustítias.
8 Désine ab ira, et derelínque furórem: * noli æmulári ut malignéris.
9 Quóniam qui malignántur, exterminabúntur: * sustinéntes autem Dóminum, ipsi hæreditábunt terram.
10 Et adhuc pusíllum, et non erit peccátor: * et quæres locum ejus, et non invénies.
11 Mansuéti autem hæreditábunt terram: * et delectabúntur in multitúdine pacis.
12 Observábit peccátor justum: * et stridébit super eum déntibus suis.
13 Dóminus autem irridébit eum: * quóniam próspicit quod véniet dies ejus.
14 Gládium evaginavérunt peccatóres: * intendérunt arcum suum,
15 Ut dejíciant paúperem et ínopem: * ut trucídent rectos corde.
16 Gládius eórum intret in corda ipsórum: * et arcus eórum confringátur.
17 Mélius est módicum justo, * super divítias peccatórum multas.
18 Quóniam bráchia peccatórum conteréntur: * confírmat autem justos Dóminus.
19 Novit Dóminus dies immaculatórum: * et hæréditas eórum in ætérnum erit.
20 Non confundéntur in témpore malo, et in diébus famis saturabúntur: * quia peccatóres períbunt.
21 Inimíci vero Dómini mox ut honorificáti fúerint et exaltáti: * deficiéntes, quemádmodum fumus defícient.
22 Mutuábitur peccátor, et non solvet: * justus autem miserétur et tríbuet.
23 Quia benedicéntes ei hæreditábunt terram: * maledicéntes autem ei disperíbunt.
24 Apud Dóminum gressus hóminis dirigéntur: * et viam ejus volet.
25 Cum cecíderit, non collidétur: * quia Dóminus suppónit manum suam.
26 Júnior fui, étenim sénui: * et non vidi justum derelíctum, nec semen ejus quærens panem.
27 Tota die miserétur et cómmodat: * et semen illíus in benedictióne erit.
28 Declína a malo, et fac bonum: * et inhábita in sǽculum sǽculi.
29 Quia Dóminus amat judícium, et non derelínquet sanctos suos: * in ætérnum conservabúntur.
30 Injústi puniéntur: * et semen impiórum períbit.
31 Justi autem hæreditábunt terram: * et inhabitábunt in sǽculum sǽculi super eam.
32 Os justi meditábitur sapiéntiam, * et lingua ejus loquétur judícium.
33 Lex Dei ejus in corde ipsíus: * et non supplantabúntur gressus ejus.
34 Consíderat peccátor justum: * et quærit mortificáre eum.
35 Dóminus autem non derelínquet eum in mánibus ejus: * nec damnábit eum, cum judicábitur illi.
36 Exspécta Dóminum, et custódi viam ejus: et exaltábit te ut hæreditáte cápias terram: * cum períerint peccatóres vidébis.
37 Vidi ímpium superexaltátum, * et elevátum sicut cedros Líbani.
38 Et transívi et ecce non erat: * et quæsívi eum, et non est invéntus locus ejus.
39 Custódi innocéntiam, et vide æquitátem: * quóniam sunt relíquiæ hómini pacífico.
40 Injústi autem disperíbunt simul: * relíquiæ impiórum interíbunt.
41 Salus autem justórum a Dómino: * et protéctor eórum in témpore tribulatiónis.
42 Et adjuvábit eos Dóminus et liberábit eos: * et éruet eos a peccatóribus, et salvábit eos: quia speravérunt in eo.

Be not emulous of evildoers; * nor envy them that work iniquity.
2 For they shall shortly wither away as grass, * and as the green herbs shall quickly fall.
3 Trust in the Lord, and do good, * and dwell in the land, and thou shalt be fed with its riches.
4 Delight in the Lord, * and he will give thee the requests of thy heart.
5 Commit thy way to the Lord, and trust in him, * and he will do it.
6 And he will bring forth thy justice as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. * Be subject to the Lord and pray to him.
7 Envy not the man who prospereth in his way; * the man who doth unjust things.
8 Cease from anger, and leave rage; * have no emulation to do evil.
9 For the evildoers shall be cut off: * but they that wait upon the Lord shall inherit the land.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: * and thou shalt seek his place, and shalt not find it.
11 But the meek shall inherit the land, * and shall delight in abundance of peace.
12 The sinner shall watch the just man: * and shall gnash upon him with his teeth.
13 But the Lord shall laugh at him: * for he foreseeth that his day shall come.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword: * they have bent their bow.
15 To cast down the poor and needy, * to kill the upright of heart.
16 Let their sword enter into their own hearts, * and let their bow be broken.
17 Better is a little to the just, * than the great riches of the wicked.
18 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken in pieces; * but the Lord strengtheneth the just.
19 The Lord knoweth the days of undefiled; * and their inheritance shall be for ever.
20 They shall not be confounded in the evil time; and in the days of famine they shall be filled: * Because the wicked shall perish.
21 And the enemies of the Lord, presently after they shall be honoured and exalted, * shall come to nothing and vanish like smoke.
22 The sinner shall borrow, and not pay again; * but the just sheweth mercy and shall give.
23 For such as bless him shall inherit the land: * but such as curse him shall perish.
24 With the Lord shall the steps of a man be directed, * and he shall like well his way.
25 When he shall fall he shall not be bruised, * for the Lord putteth his hand under him.
26 I have been young, and now am old; * and I have not seen the just forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread.
27 He sheweth mercy, and lendeth all the day long; * and his seed shall be in blessing.
28 Decline from evil and do good, * and dwell for ever and ever.
29 For the Lord loveth judgment, and will not forsake his saints: * they shall be preserved for ever.
30 The unjust shall be punished, * and the seed of the wicked shall perish.
31 But the just shall inherit the land, * and shall dwell therein for evermore.
32 The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom: * and his tongue shall speak judgment.
33 The law of his God is in his heart, * and his steps shall not be supplanted.
34 The wicked watcheth the just man, * and seeketh to put him to death,
35 But the Lord will not leave him in his hands; * nor condemn him when he shall be judged.
36 Expect the Lord and keep his way: and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: * when the sinners shall perish thou shalt see.
37 I have seen the wicked highly exalted, * and lifted up like the cedars of Libanus.
38 And I passed by, and lo, he was not: * and I sought him and his place was not found.
39 Keep innocence, and behold justice: * for there are remnants for the peaceable man.
40 But the unjust shall be destroyed together: * the remnants of the wicked shall perish.
41 But the salvation of the just is from the Lord, * and he is their protector in the time of trouble.
42 And the Lord will help them and deliver them: * and he will rescue them from the wicked, and save them, because they have hoped in him.
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.

Psalmus 37.

Dómine ne in furóre tuo árguas me, * neque in ira tua corrípias me.
2 Quóniam sagíttæ tuæ infíxæ sunt mihi: * et confirmásti super me manum tuam.
3 Non est sánitas in carne mea a fácie iræ tuæ: * non est pax óssibus meis a fácie peccatórum meórum.
4 Quóniam iniquitátes meæ supergréssæ sunt caput meum: * et sicut onus grave gravátæ sunt super me.
5 Putruérunt et corrúptæ sunt cicatríces meæ, * a fácie insipiéntiæ meæ.
6 Miser factus sum, et curvátus sum usque in finem: * tota die contristátus ingrediébar.
7 Quóniam lumbi mei impléti sunt illusiónibus: * et non est sánitas in carne mea.
8 Afflíctus sum, et humiliátus sum nimis: * rugiébam a gémitu cordis mei.
9 Dómine, ante te omne desidérium meum: * et gémitus meus a te non est abscónditus.
10 Cor meum conturbátum est, derelíquit me virtus mea: * et lumen oculórum meórum, et ipsum non est mecum.
11 Amíci mei, et próximi mei * advérsum me appropinquavérunt, et stetérunt.
12 Et qui juxta me erant, de longe stetérunt: * et vim faciébant qui quærébant ánimam meam.
13 Et qui inquirébant mala mihi, locúti sunt vanitátes: * et dolos tota die meditabántur.
14 Ego autem tamquam surdus non audiébam: * et sicut mutus non apériens os suum.
15 Et factus sum sicut homo non aúdiens: * et non habens in ore suo redargutiónes.
16 Quóniam in te Dómine sperávi: * tu exaúdies me Dómine Deus meus.
17 Quia dixi: Nequándo supergaúdeant mihi inimíci mei: * et dum commovéntur pedes mei, super me magna locúti sunt.
18 Quóniam ego in flagélla parátus sum: * et dolor meus in conspéctu meo semper.
19 Quóniam iniquitátem meam annuntiábo: * et cogitábo pro peccáto meo.
20 Inimíci autem mei vivunt, et confirmáti sunt super me: * et multiplicáti sunt qui odérunt me iníque.
21 Qui retríbuunt mala pro bonis, detrahébant mihi: * quóniam sequébar bonitátem.
22 Ne derelínquas me Dómine Deus meus: * ne discésseris a me.
23 Inténde in adjutórium meum, * Dómine Deus salútis meæ.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Rebuke me not, O Lord, in thy indignation; * nor chastise me in thy wrath.
2 For thy arrows are fastened in me: * and thy hand hath been strong upon me.
3 There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath: * there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.
4 For my iniquities are gone over my head: * and as a heavy burden are become heavy upon me.
5 My sores are putrified and corrupted, * because of my foolishness.
6 I am become miserable, and am bowed down even to the end: * I walked sorrowful all the day long.
7 For my loins are filled with illusions; * and there is no health in my flesh.
8 I am afflicted and humbled exceedingly: * I roared with the groaning of my heart.
9 Lord, all my desire is before thee, * and my groaning is not hidden from thee.
10 My heart is troubled, my strength hath left me, * and the light of my eyes itself is not with me.
11 My friends and my neighbours * have drawn near, and stood against me.
12 And they that were near me stood afar off: * And they that sought my soul used violence.
13 And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, * and studied deceits all the day long.
14 But I, as a deaf man, heard not: * and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.
15 And I became as a man that heareth not: * and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.
16 For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: * thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.
17 For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: * and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.
18 For I am ready for scourges: * and my sorrow is continually before me.
19 For I will declare my iniquity: * and I will think for my sin.
20 But my enemies live, and are stronger than I: * and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
21 They that render evil for good, have detracted me, * because I followed goodness.
22 Forsake me not, O Lord my God: * do not thou depart from me.
23 Attend unto my help, * O Lord, the God of my salvation.
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.

Amen.

Non ergo magnum peccátum, si hoc vendébant in templo, quod emebátur ut offerrétur in templo: et tamen ejécit inde illos. Quid si ibi ebriósos inveníret, quid fáceret Dóminus, si vendéntes ea quæ lícita sunt, et contra justítiam non sunt (quæ enim honéste emúntur, non illícite vendúntur) éxpulit tamen, et non est passus domum oratiónis fíeri domum negotiatiónis?
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.

Amen.

Si negotiatiónis domus non debet fíeri domus Dei, potatiónis debet fíeri? Nos autem quando ista dícimus, strident déntibus suis advérsus nos: et consolátur nos Psalmus, quem audístis: Stridérunt in me déntibus suis. Nóvimus et nos audíre unde curémur: etsi ingeminántur flagélla Christo, quia flagellátur sermo ipsíus. Congregáta sunt, inquit, in me flagélla, et nesciébant. Flagellátus est flagéllis Judæórum: flagellátur blasphémiis falsórum Christianórum: multíplicant flagélla Dómino Deo suo, et nésciunt. Faciámus nos, quantum ipse ádjuvat. Ego autem, cum mihi molésti essent, induébam me cilício, et humiliábam in jejúnio ánimam meam.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.


But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.

Psalmus 50.

Miserére mei Deus, * secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam.
2 Et secúndum multitúdinem miseratiónum tuárum, * dele iniquitátem meam.
3 Amplius lava me ab iniquitáte mea: * et a peccáto meo munda me.
4 Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego cognósco: * et peccátum meum contra me est semper.
5 Tibi soli peccávi, et malum coram te feci: * ut justificéris in sermónibus tuis, et vincas cum judicáris.
6 Ecce enim in iniquitátibus concéptus sum: * et in peccátis concépit me mater mea.
7 Ecce enim veritátem dilexísti: * incérta et occúlta sapiéntiæ tuæ manifestásti mihi.
8 Aspérges me hyssópo, et mundábor: * lavábis me, et super nivem dealbábor.
9 Audítui meo dabis gaúdium et lætítiam: * et exsultábunt ossa humiliáta.
10 Avérte fáciem tuam a peccátis meis: * et omnes iniquitátes meas dele.
11 Cor mundum crea in me Deus: * et spíritum rectum ínnova in viscéribus meis.
12 Ne projícias me a fácie tua: * et Spíritum sanctum tuum ne aúferas a me.
13 Redde mihi lætítiam salutáris tui: * et spíritu principáli confírma me.
14 Docébo iníquos vias tuas: * et ímpii ad te converténtur.
15 Líbera me de sanguínibus Deus, Deus salútis meæ: * et exsultábit lingua mea justítiam tuam.
16 Dómine, lábia mea apéries: * et os meum annuntiábit laudem tuam.
17 Quóniam si voluísses sacrifícium, dedíssem útique: * holocaústis non delectáberis.
18 Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum, et humiliátum Deus non despícies.
19 Benígne fac Dómine in bona voluntáte tua Sion: * ut ædificéntur muri Jerúsalem.
20 Tunc acceptábis sacrifícium justítiæ, oblatiónes, et holocaústa: * tunc impónent super altáre tuum vítulos.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Have mercy on me, O God, * according to thy great mercy.
2 And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies * blot out my iniquity.
3 Wash me yet more from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.
4 For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is always before me.
5 To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: * that thou mayst be justified in thy words and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
6 For behold I was conceived in iniquities; * and in sins did my mother conceive me.
7 For behold thou hast loved truth: * the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
8 Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: * thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
9 To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: * and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
10 Turn away thy face from my sins, * and blot out all my iniquities.
11 Create a clean heart in me, O God: * and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
12 Cast me not away from thy face; * and take not thy holy spirit from me.
13 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, * and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
14 I will teach the unjust thy ways: * and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
15 Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: * and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
16 O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: * and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
17 For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: * with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
18 A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
19 Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; * that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
20 Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: * then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.
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.

Miserére mei Deus.

Have mercy upon me, O God.

Psalmus 5.

Verba mea aúribus pércipe Dómine, * intéllige clamórem meum.
2 Inténde voci oratiónis meæ, * rex meus et Deus meus.
3 Quóniam ad te orábo: * Dómine mane exaúdies vocem meam.
4 Mane astábo tibi et vidébo: * quóniam non Deus volens iniquitátem tu es.
5 Neque habitábit juxta te malígnus: * neque permanébunt injústi ante óculos tuos.
6 Odísti omnes, qui operántur iniquitátem: * perdes omnes, qui loquúntur mendácium.
7 Virum sánguinum et dolósum abominábitur Dóminus: * ego autem in multitúdine misericórdiæ tuæ.
8 Introíbo in domum tuam: * adorábo ad templum sanctum tuum in timóre tuo.
9 Dómine deduc me in justítia tua: * propter inimícos meos dírige in conspéctu tuo viam meam.
10 Quóniam non est in ore eórum véritas: * cor eórum vanum est.
11 Sepúlchrum patens est guttur eórum, linguis suis dolóse agébant, * júdica illos Deus.
12 Décidant a cogitatiónibus suis, secúndum multitúdinem impietátum eórum expélle eos, * quóniam irritavérunt te Dómine.
13 Et læténtur omnes, qui sperant in te, * in ætérnum exsultábunt: et habitábis in eis.
14 Et gloriabúntur in te omnes, qui díligunt nomen tuum, * quóniam tu benedíces justo.
15 Dómine, ut scuto bonæ voluntátis tuæ * coronásti nos.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Give ear, O Lord, to my words, * understand my cry.
2 Hearken to the voice of my prayer, * O my King and my God.
3 For to thee will I pray: * O Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear my voice.
4 In the morning I will stand before thee, and will see: * because thou art not a God that willest iniquity.
5 Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: * nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes.
6 Thou hatest all the workers of iniquity: * Thou wilt destroy all that speak a lie.
7 The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor. * But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy,
8 I will come into thy house; * I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear.
9 Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: * because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight.
10 For there is no truth in their mouth; * their heart is vain.
11 Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: * judge them, O God.
12 Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickednesses cast them out: * for they have provoked thee, O Lord.
13 But let all them be glad that hope in thee: * they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them.
14 And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee: * For thou wilt bless the just.
15 O Lord as with a shield of thy good will * thou hast crowned us.
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.

Intéllige clamórem meum Dómine.

Consider my supplication, O Lord.

Deus Deus meus.

O God, Thou art my God,

Psalmus 62.

Deus Deus meus * ad te de luce vígilo.
2 Sitívit in te ánima mea, * quam multiplíciter tibi caro mea.
3 In terra desérta, et ínvia, et inaquósa: * sic in sancto appárui tibi, ut vidérem virtútem tuam, et glóriam tuam.
4 Quóniam mélior est misericórdia tua super vitas: * lábia mea laudábunt te.
5 Sic benedícam te in vita mea: * et in nómine tuo levábo manus meas.
6 Sicut ádipe et pinguédine repleátur ánima mea: * et lábiis exsultatiónis laudábit os meum.
7 Si memor fui tui super stratum meum, in matutínis meditábor in te: * quia fuísti adjútor meus.
8 Et in velaménto alárum tuárum exsultábo, adhǽsit ánima mea post te: * me suscépit déxtera tua.
9 Ipsi vero in vanum quæsiérunt ánimam meam, introíbunt in inferióra terræ: * tradéntur in manus gládii, partes vúlpium erunt.
10 Rex vero lætábitur in Deo, laudabúntur omnes qui jurant in eo: * quia obstrúctum est os loquéntium iníqua.
Psalmus 66.
1 Deus misereátur nostri, et benedícat nobis: * illúminet vultum suum super nos, et misereátur nostri.
2 Ut cognoscámus in terra viam tuam: * in ómnibus Géntibus salutáre tuum.
3 Confiteántur tibi pópuli Deus: * confiteántur tibi pópuli omnes.
4 Læténtur et exsúltent Gentes: * quóniam júdicas pópulos in æquitáte, et Gentes in terra dírigis.
5 Confiteántur tibi pópuli Deus, confiteántur tibi pópuli omnes: * terra dedit fructum suum.
6 Benedícat nos Deus, Deus noster, benedícat nos Deus: * et métuant eum omnes fines terræ.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

O God, my God, * to thee do I watch at break of day.
2 For thee my soul hath thirsted; * for thee my flesh, O how many ways!
3 In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: * so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory.
4 For thy mercy is better than lives: * thee my lips shall praise.
5 Thus will I bless thee all my life long: * and in thy name I will lift up my hands.
6 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: * and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.
7 If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning: * because thou hast been my helper.
8 And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings: my soul hath stuck close to thee: * thy right hand hath received me.
9 But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth: * they shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.
10 But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: * because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.

1 May God have mercy on us, and bless us: * may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us.
2 That we may know thy way upon earth: * thy salvation in all nations.
3 Let people confess to thee, O God: * let all people give praise to thee.
4 Let the nations be glad and rejoice: * for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth.
5 Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee: * the earth hath yielded her fruit.
6 May God, our God bless us, may God bless us: * and all the ends of the earth fear him.
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.

Benedíctus ✠ Dóminus Deus Israël, * quia visitávit, et fecit redemptiónem plebis suæ:
2 Et eréxit cornu salútis nobis: * in domo David púeri sui.
3 Sicut locútus est per os sanctórum, * qui a sǽculo sunt, prophetárum ejus:
4 Salútem ex inimícis nostris, * et de manu ómnium, qui odérunt nos:
5 Ad faciéndam misericórdiam cum pátribus nostris: * et memorári testaménti sui sancti.
6 Jusjurándum, quod jurávit ad Abraham patrem nostrum, * datúrum se nobis:
7 Ut sine timóre, de manu inimicórum nostrórum liberáti, * serviámus illi.
8 In sanctitáte, et justítia coram ipso, * ómnibus diébus nostris.
9 Et tu puer, Prophéta Altíssimi vocáberis: * præíbis enim ante fáciem Dómini paráre vias ejus:
10 Ad dandam sciéntiam salútis plebi ejus: * in remissiónem peccatórum eórum:
11 Per víscera misericórdiæ Dei nostri: * in quibus visitávit nos, óriens ex alto:
12 Illumináre his, qui in ténebris, et in umbra mortis sedent: * ad dirigéndos pedes nostros in viam pacis.

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, * for He hath visited and redeemed His people.
2 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us, * in the house of His servant David:
3 As He spake by the mouth of His holy Prophets, * which have been since the world began:
4 That we should be saved from our enemies, * and from the hand of all that hate us:
5 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, * and to remember His holy covenant:
6 The oath which He sware to our father Abraham, * that He would grant unto us,
7 That we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, * might serve Him without fear,
8 In holiness and righteousness before Him * all the days of our life.
9 And thou, child, shalt be called the Prophet of the Highest: * for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways:
10 To give knowledge of salvation unto His people, * by the remission of their sins;
11 Through the tender mercy of our God, * whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
12 To give light to them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death, * to guide our feet into the way of peace.
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.

Psalmus 5.

Verba mea aúribus pércipe Dómine, * intéllige clamórem meum.
2 Inténde voci oratiónis meæ, * rex meus et Deus meus.
3 Quóniam ad te orábo: * Dómine mane exaúdies vocem meam.
4 Mane astábo tibi et vidébo: * quóniam non Deus volens iniquitátem tu es.
5 Neque habitábit juxta te malígnus: * neque permanébunt injústi ante óculos tuos.
6 Odísti omnes, qui operántur iniquitátem: * perdes omnes, qui loquúntur mendácium.
7 Virum sánguinum et dolósum abominábitur Dóminus: * ego autem in multitúdine misericórdiæ tuæ.
8 Introíbo in domum tuam: * adorábo ad templum sanctum tuum in timóre tuo.
9 Dómine deduc me in justítia tua: * propter inimícos meos dírige in conspéctu tuo viam meam.
10 Quóniam non est in ore eórum véritas: * cor eórum vanum est.
11 Sepúlchrum patens est guttur eórum, linguis suis dolóse agébant, * júdica illos Deus.
12 Décidant a cogitatiónibus suis, secúndum multitúdinem impietátum eórum expélle eos, * quóniam irritavérunt te Dómine.
13 Et læténtur omnes, qui sperant in te, * in ætérnum exsultábunt: et habitábis in eis.
14 Et gloriabúntur in te omnes, qui díligunt nomen tuum, * quóniam tu benedíces justo.
15 Dómine, ut scuto bonæ voluntátis tuæ * coronásti nos.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.

Give ear, O Lord, to my words, * understand my cry.
2 Hearken to the voice of my prayer, * O my King and my God.
3 For to thee will I pray: * O Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear my voice.
4 In the morning I will stand before thee, and will see: * because thou art not a God that willest iniquity.
5 Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: * nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes.
6 Thou hatest all the workers of iniquity: * Thou wilt destroy all that speak a lie.
7 The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor. * But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy,
8 I will come into thy house; * I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear.
9 Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: * because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight.
10 For there is no truth in their mouth; * their heart is vain.
11 Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: * judge them, O God.
12 Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickednesses cast them out: * for they have provoked thee, O Lord.
13 But let all them be glad that hope in thee: * they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them.
14 And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee: * For thou wilt bless the just.
15 O Lord as with a shield of thy good will * thou hast crowned us.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.

Convértere.

Psalmus 6.

Dómine, ne in furóre tuo árguas me, * neque in ira tua corrípias me.
2 Miserére mei Dómine quóniam infírmus sum: * sana me Dómine quóniam conturbáta sunt ossa mea.
3 Et ánima mea turbáta est valde: * sed tu Dómine úsquequo?
4 Convértere Dómine, et éripe ánimam meam: * salvum me fac propter misericórdiam tuam.
5 Quóniam non est in morte qui memor sit tui: * in inférno autem quis confitébitur tibi?
6 Laborávi in gémitu meo, lavábo per síngulas noctes lectum meum: * lácrimis meis stratum meum rigábo.
7 Turbátus est a furóre óculus meus: * inveterávi inter omnes inimícos meos.
8 Discédite a me omnes, qui operámini iniquitátem: * quóniam exaudívit Dóminus vocem fletus mei.
9 Exaudívit Dóminus deprecatiónem meam, * Dóminus oratiónem meam suscépit.
10 Erubéscant, et conturbéntur veheménter omnes inimíci mei: * convertántur et erubéscant valde velóciter.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.

O Lord, rebuke me not in thy indignation, * nor chastise me in thy wrath.
2 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak: * heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.
3 And my soul is troubled exceedingly: * but thou, O Lord, how long?
4 Turn to me, O Lord, and deliver my soul: * O save me for thy mercy's sake.
5 For there is no one in death, that is mindful of thee: * and who shall confess to thee in hell?
6 I have laboured in my groanings, every night I will wash my bed: * I will water my couch with my tears.
7 My eye is troubled through indignation: * I have grown old amongst all my enemies.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity: * for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The Lord hath heard my supplication: * the Lord hath received my prayer.
10 Let all my enemies be ashamed, and be very much troubled: * let them be turned back, and be ashamed very speedily.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.

Convértere Dómine, et éripe ánimam meam: quóniam non est in morte, qui memor sit tui.

Nequándo rápiat.

Psalmus 7.

Dómine Deus meus in te sperávi: * salvum me fac ex ómnibus persequéntibus me, et líbera me.
2 Nequándo rápiat ut leo ánimam meam, * dum non est qui rédimat, neque qui salvum fáciat.
3 Dómine Deus meus si feci istud, * si est iníquitas in mánibus meis:
4 Si réddidi retribuéntibus mihi mala, * décidam mérito ab inimícis meis inánis.
5 Persequátur inimícus ánimam meam, et comprehéndat, et concúlcet in terra vitam meam, * et glóriam meam in púlverem dedúcat.
6 Exsúrge Dómine in ira tua: * et exaltáre in fínibus inimicórum meórum.
7 Et exsúrge Dómine Deus meus in præcépto quod mandásti: * et synagóga populórum circúmdabit te.
8 Et propter hanc in altum regrédere: * Dóminus júdicat pópulos.
9 Júdica me Dómine secúndum justítiam meam, * et secúndum innocéntiam meam super me.
10 Consumétur nequítia peccatórum, et díriges justum, * scrutans corda et renes Deus.
11 Justum adjutórium meum a Dómino, * qui salvos facit rectos corde.
12 Deus judex justus, fortis, et pátiens: * numquid iráscitur per síngulos dies?
13 Nisi convérsi fuéritis, gládium suum vibrábit: * arcum suum teténdit, et parávit illum.
14 Et in eo parávit vasa mortis: * sagíttas suas ardéntibus effécit.
15 Ecce partúriit injustítiam: * concépit dolórem, et péperit iniquitátem.
16 Lacum apéruit, et effódit eum: * et íncidit in fóveam quam fecit.
17 Convertétur dolor ejus in caput ejus: * et in vérticem ipsíus iníquitas ejus descéndet.
18 Confitébor Dómino secúndum justítiam ejus: * et psallam nómini Dómini altíssimi.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.

O Lord my God, in thee have I put my trust: * save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me.
2 Lest at any time he seize upon my soul like a lion, * while there is no one to redeem me, nor to save.
3 O Lord my God, if I have done this thing, * if there be iniquity in my hands:
4 If I have rendered to them that repaid me evils, * let me deservedly fall empty before my enemies.
5 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and take it, and tread down my life on the earth, * and bring down my glory to the dust.
6 Rise up, O Lord, in thy anger: * and be thou exalted in the borders of my enemies.
7 And arise, O Lord my God, in the precept which thou hast commanded: * And a congregation of people shall surround thee.
8 And for their sakes return thou on high. * The Lord judgeth the people.
9 Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice, * and according to my innocence in me.
10 The wickedness of sinners shall be brought to nought: and thou shalt direct the just: * the searcher of hearts and reins is God.
11 Just is my help from the Lord: * who saveth the upright of heart.
12 God is a just judge, strong and patient: * is he angry every day?
13 Except you will be converted, he will brandish his sword: * he hath bent his bow and made it ready.
14 And in it he hath prepared the instruments of death, * he hath made ready his arrows for them that burn.
15 Behold he hath been in labour with injustice; * he hath conceived sorrow, and brought forth iniquity.
16 He hath opened a pit and dug it; * and he is fallen into the hole he made.
17 His sorrow shall be turned on his own head: * and his iniquity shall come down upon his crown.
18 I will give glory to the Lord according to his justice: * and will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.

Nequándo rápiat ut leo ánimam meam, dum non est qui rédimat, neque qui salvum fáciat.

Parce mihi Dómine; nihil enim sunt dies mei. Quid est homo, quia magníficas eum? aut quid appónis erga eum cor tuum? Vísitas eum dilúculo, et súbito probas illum.

Tædet ánimam meam vitæ meæ, dimíttam advérsum me elóquium meum, loquar in amaritúdine ánimæ meæ. Dicam Deo: Noli me condemnáre: índica mihi cur me ita júdices. Numquid bonum tibi vidétur, si calumniéris me, et ópprimas me opus mánuum tuárum, et consílium impiórum ádjuves? Numquid óculi cárnei tibi sunt: aut sicut videt homo, et tu vidébis? Numquid sicut dies hóminis dies tui, et anni tui sicut humána sunt témpora, ut quæras iniquitátem meam, et peccátum meum scrutéris? Et scias quia nihil ímpium fécerim, cum sit nemo qui de manu tua possit erúere.

Miserére mei Deus, * secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam.
2 Et secúndum multitúdinem miseratiónum tuárum, * dele iniquitátem meam.
3 Amplius lava me ab iniquitáte mea: * et a peccáto meo munda me.
4 Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego cognósco: * et peccátum meum contra me est semper.
5 Tibi soli peccávi, et malum coram te feci: * ut justificéris in sermónibus tuis, et vincas cum judicáris.
6 Ecce enim in iniquitátibus concéptus sum: * et in peccátis concépit me mater mea.
7 Ecce enim veritátem dilexísti: * incérta et occúlta sapiéntiæ tuæ manifestásti mihi.
8 Aspérges me hyssópo, et mundábor: * lavábis me, et super nivem dealbábor.
9 Audítui meo dabis gaúdium et lætítiam: * et exsultábunt ossa humiliáta.
10 Avérte fáciem tuam a peccátis meis: * et omnes iniquitátes meas dele.
11 Cor mundum crea in me Deus: * et spíritum rectum ínnova in viscéribus meis.
12 Ne projícias me a fácie tua: * et Spíritum sanctum tuum ne aúferas a me.
13 Redde mihi lætítiam salutáris tui: * et spíritu principáli confírma me.
14 Docébo iníquos vias tuas: * et ímpii ad te converténtur.
15 Líbera me de sanguínibus Deus, Deus salútis meæ: * et exsultábit lingua mea justítiam tuam.
16 Dómine, lábia mea apéries: * et os meum annuntiábit laudem tuam.
17 Quóniam si voluísses sacrifícium, dedíssem útique: * holocaústis non delectáberis.
18 Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum, et humiliátum Deus non despícies.
19 Benígne fac Dómine in bona voluntáte tua Sion: * ut ædificéntur muri Jerúsalem.
20 Tunc acceptábis sacrifícium justítiæ, oblatiónes, et holocaústa: * tunc impónent super altáre tuum vítulos.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.

Have mercy on me, O God, * according to thy great mercy.
2 And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies * blot out my iniquity.
3 Wash me yet more from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.
4 For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is always before me.
5 To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: * that thou mayst be justified in thy words and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
6 For behold I was conceived in iniquities; * and in sins did my mother conceive me.
7 For behold thou hast loved truth: * the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
8 Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: * thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
9 To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: * and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
10 Turn away thy face from my sins, * and blot out all my iniquities.
11 Create a clean heart in me, O God: * and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
12 Cast me not away from thy face; * and take not thy holy spirit from me.
13 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, * and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
14 I will teach the unjust thy ways: * and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
15 Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: * and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
16 O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: * and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
17 For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: * with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
18 A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
19 Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; * that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
20 Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: * then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.

Exsultábunt Dómino ossa humiliáta.

Psalmus 64.

Te decet hymnus Deus in Sion: * et tibi reddétur votum in Jerúsalem.
2 Exaúdi oratiónem meam: * ad te omnis caro véniet.
3 Verba iniquórum prævaluérunt super nos: * et impietátibus nostris tu propitiáberis.
4 Beátus, quem elegísti, et assumpsísti: * inhabitábit in átriis tuis.
5 Replébimur in bonis domus tuæ: * sanctum est templum tuum, mirábile in æquitáte.
6 Exaúdi nos Deus salutáris noster, * spes ómnium fínium terræ, et in mari longe.
7 Prǽparans montes in virtúte tua, accínctus poténtia: * qui contúrbas profúndum maris sonum flúctuum ejus.
8 Turbabúntur Gentes, et timébunt qui hábitant términos a signis tuis: * éxitus matutíni, et véspere delectábis.
9 Visitásti terram, et inebriásti eam: * multiplicásti locupletáre eam.
10 Flumen Dei replétum est aquis, parásti cibum illórum: * quóniam ita est præparátio ejus.
11 Rivos ejus inébria, multíplica genímina ejus: * in stillicídiis ejus lætábitur gérminans.
12 Benedíces corónæ anni benignitátis tuæ: * et campi tui replebúntur ubertáte.
13 Pinguéscent speciósa desérti: * et exsultatióne colles accingéntur.
14 Indúti sunt aríetes óvium, et valles abundábunt fruménto: * clamábunt, étenim hymnum dicent.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.

A Hymn, O God, becometh thee in Sion: * and a vow shall be paid to thee in Jerusalem.
2 O hear my prayer: * all flesh shall come to thee.
3 The words of the wicked have prevailed over us: * and thou wilt pardon our transgressions.
4 Blessed is he whom thou hast chosen and taken to thee: * he shall dwell in thy courts.
5 We shall be filled with the good things of thy house; * holy is thy temple, wonderful in justice.
6 Hear us, O God our saviour, * who art the hope of all the ends of the earth, and in the sea afar off.
7 Thou who preparest the mountains by thy strength, being girded with power: * Who troublest the depth of the sea, the noise of its waves.
8 The Gentiles shall be troubled, and they that dwell in the uttermost borders shall be afraid at thy signs: * thou shalt make the outgoings of the morning and of the evening to be joyful.
9 Thou hast visited the earth, and hast plentifully watered it; * thou hast many ways enriched it.
10 The river of God is filled with water, thou hast prepared their food: * for so is its preparation.
11 Fill up plentifully the streams thereof, multiply its fruits; * it shall spring up and rejoice in its showers.
12 Thou shalt bless the crown of the year of thy goodness: * and thy fields shall be filled with plenty.
13 The beautiful places of the wilderness shall grow fat: * and the hills shall be girded about with joy,
14 The rams of the flock are clothed, and the vales shall abound with corn: * they shall shout, yea they shall sing a hymn.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.

Exaúdi Dómine oratiónem meam: ad te omnis caro véniet.

Me suscépit.

Psalmus 62.

Deus Deus meus * ad te de luce vígilo.
2 Sitívit in te ánima mea, * quam multiplíciter tibi caro mea.
3 In terra desérta, et ínvia, et inaquósa: * sic in sancto appárui tibi, ut vidérem virtútem tuam, et glóriam tuam.
4 Quóniam mélior est misericórdia tua super vitas: * lábia mea laudábunt te.
5 Sic benedícam te in vita mea: * et in nómine tuo levábo manus meas.
6 Sicut ádipe et pinguédine repleátur ánima mea: * et lábiis exsultatiónis laudábit os meum.
7 Si memor fui tui super stratum meum, in matutínis meditábor in te: * quia fuísti adjútor meus.
8 Et in velaménto alárum tuárum exsultábo, adhǽsit ánima mea post te: * me suscépit déxtera tua.
9 Ipsi vero in vanum quæsiérunt ánimam meam, introíbunt in inferióra terræ: * tradéntur in manus gládii, partes vúlpium erunt.
10 Rex vero lætábitur in Deo, laudabúntur omnes qui jurant in eo: * quia obstrúctum est os loquéntium iníqua.
Psalmus 66.
1 Deus misereátur nostri, et benedícat nobis: * illúminet vultum suum super nos, et misereátur nostri.
2 Ut cognoscámus in terra viam tuam: * in ómnibus Géntibus salutáre tuum.
3 Confiteántur tibi pópuli Deus: * confiteántur tibi pópuli omnes.
4 Læténtur et exsúltent Gentes: * quóniam júdicas pópulos in æquitáte, et Gentes in terra dírigis.
5 Confiteántur tibi pópuli Deus, confiteántur tibi pópuli omnes: * terra dedit fructum suum.
6 Benedícat nos Deus, Deus noster, benedícat nos Deus: * et métuant eum omnes fines terræ.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.

O God, my God, * to thee do I watch at break of day.
2 For thee my soul hath thirsted; * for thee my flesh, O how many ways!
3 In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: * so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory.
4 For thy mercy is better than lives: * thee my lips shall praise.
5 Thus will I bless thee all my life long: * and in thy name I will lift up my hands.
6 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: * and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.
7 If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning: * because thou hast been my helper.
8 And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings: my soul hath stuck close to thee: * thy right hand hath received me.
9 But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth: * they shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.
10 But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: * because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.

1 May God have mercy on us, and bless us: * may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us.
2 That we may know thy way upon earth: * thy salvation in all nations.
3 Let people confess to thee, O God: * let all people give praise to thee.
4 Let the nations be glad and rejoice: * for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth.
5 Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee: * the earth hath yielded her fruit.
6 May God, our God bless us, may God bless us: * and all the ends of the earth fear him.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.

Me suscépit déxtera tua Dómine.

A porta ínferi.

Canticum Ezechiae.

Ego dixi: In dimídio diérum meórum * vadam ad portas ínferi.
2 Quæsívi resíduum annórum meórum. * Dixi: Non vidébo Dóminum Deum in terra vivéntium.
3 Non aspíciam hóminem ultra, * et habitatórem quiétis.
4 Generátio mea abláta est, et convolúta est a me, * quasi tabernáculum pastórum.
5 Præcísa est velut a texénte, vita mea: dum adhuc ordírer, succídit me: * de mane usque ad vésperam fínies me.
6 Sperábam usque ad mane, * quasi leo sic contrívit ómnia ossa mea:
7 De mane usque ad vésperam fínies me: * sicut pullus hirúndinis sic clamábo, meditábor ut colúmba:
8 Attenuáti sunt óculi mei, * suspiciéntes in excélsum:
9 Dómine vim pátior, respónde pro me. * Quid dicam, aut quid respondébit mihi, cum ipse fécerit?
10 Recogitábo tibi omnes annos meos * in amaritúdine ánimæ meæ.
11 Dómine si sic vívitur, et in tálibus vita spíritus mei, corrípies me, et vivificábis me. * Ecce in pace amaritúdo mea amaríssima:
12 Tu autem eruísti ánimam meam ut non períret: * projecísti post tergum tuum ómnia peccáta mea.
13 Quia non inférnus confitébitur tibi, neque mors laudábit te: * non exspectábunt qui descéndunt in lacum, veritátem tuam.
14 Vivens vivens ipse confitébitur tibi, sicut et ego hódie: * pater fíliis notam fáciet veritátem tuam.
15 Dómine salvum me fac, * et psalmos nostros cantábimus cunctis diébus vitæ nostræ in domo Dómini.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.

I said: In the midst of my days * I shall go to the gates of hell:
2 I sought for the residue of my years. * I said: I shall not see the Lord God in the land of the living.
3 I shall behold man no more, * nor the inhabitant of rest.
4 My generation is at an end, and it is rolled away from me, * as a shepherd's tent.
5 My life is cut off, as by a weaver: whilst I was yet but beginning, he cut me off: * from morning even to night thou wilt make an end of me.
6 I hoped till morning, * as a lion so hath he broken all my bones:
7 from morning even to night thou wilt make an end of me. * I will cry like a young swallow, I will meditate like a dove:
8 My eyes are weakened * looking upward:
9 Lord, I suffer violence, answer thou for me. * What shall I say, or what shall he answer for me, whereas he himself hath done it?
10 I will recount to thee all my years * in the bitterness of my soul.
11 O Lord, if man's life be such, and the life of my spirit be in such things as these, thou shalt correct me, and make me to live. * Behold in peace is my bitterness most bitter:
12 But thou hast delivered my soul that it should not perish, * thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
13 For hell shall not confess to thee, neither shall death praise thee: * nor shall they that go down into the pit, look for thy truth.
14 The living, the living, he shall give praise to thee, as I do this day: * the father shall make thy truth known to the children.
15 O Lord, save me, * and we will sing our psalms all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.

2 Lætétur Israël in eo, qui fecit eum: * et fílii Sion exsúltent in rege suo.
3 Laudent nomen ejus in choro: * in týmpano, et psaltério psallant ei.
4 Quia beneplácitum est Dómino in pópulo suo: * et exaltábit mansuétos in salútem.

9 Ut fáciant in eis judícium conscríptum: * glória hæc est ómnibus sanctis ejus.
Psalmus 150.
1 Laudáte Dóminum in sanctis ejus: * laudáte eum in firmaménto virtútis ejus.
2 Laudáte eum in virtútibus ejus: * laudáte eum secúndum multitúdinem magnitúdinis ejus.
3 Laudáte eum in sono tubæ: * laudáte eum in psaltério, et cíthara.
4 Laudáte eum in týmpano, et choro: * laudáte eum in chordis, et órgano.
5 Laudáte eum in cýmbalis benesonántibus: laudáte eum in cýmbalis jubilatiónis: * omnis spíritus laudet Dóminum.

13 The praise of him is above heaven and earth: * and he hath exalted the horn of his people.
14 A hymn to all his saints: * to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him.

1 Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: * let his praise be in the church of the saints.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: * and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king.
3 Let them praise his name in choir: * let them sing to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, * for He hath visited and redeemed His people.
2 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us, * in the house of His servant David:
3 As He spake by the mouth of His holy Prophets, * which have been since the world began:
4 That we should be saved from our enemies, * and from the hand of all that hate us:
5 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, * and to remember His holy covenant:
6 The oath which He sware to our father Abraham, * that He would grant unto us,
7 That we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, * might serve Him without fear,
8 In holiness and righteousness before Him * all the days of our life.
9 And thou, child, shalt be called the Prophet of the Highest: * for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways:
10 To give knowledge of salvation unto His people, * by the remission of their sins;
11 Through the tender mercy of our God, * whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
12 To give light to them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death, * to guide our feet into the way of peace.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.
