Die 31 Martii 2026.
Simplex.
Aperi Dómine os meum ad benedicéndum nomen sanctum tuum: munda quoque cor meum ab ómnibus vanis, pervérsis et aliénis cogitatiónibus: intelléctum illúmina, afféctum inflámma, ut digne, atténte ac devóte hoc Offícium recitáre váleam, et exaudíri mérear ante conspéctum divínæ Majestátis tuæ. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.
Dómine in unióne illíus divínæ intentiónis, qua ipse in terris laudes Deo persolvísti, has tibi Horas persólvo.
O Lord, open Thou my mouth that I may bless Thy Holy Name. Cleanse my heart from all vain, evil, and wandering thoughts; enlighten my understanding; kindle my affections, that I may pray to, and praise Thee with attention and devotion; and may worthily be heard before the presence of Thy Divine Majesty. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Lord, in union with that Divine Intention wherewith Thou didst Thyself praise God, while as Thou wast on earth, I offer these Hours unto Thee.
Dicuntur secreto.
Pater noster, qui es in cœlis: sanctificétur nomen tuum: advéniat regnum tuum: fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cœlo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie: et dimítte nobis débita nostra, sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris: et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem: sed líbera nos a malo. Amen.
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.
Ave María, grátia plena, Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui Jesus. Sancta María, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatóribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostræ. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Credo in Deum, Patrem omnipoténtem, Creatórem cœli et terræ. Et in Jesum Christum, Fílium ejus únicum, Dóminum nostrum: qui concéptus est de Spíritu sancto, natus ex María Vírgine, passus sub Póntio Piláto, crucifíxus, mórtuus, et sepúltus: descéndit ad ínferos: tértia die resurréxit a mórtuis: ascéndit ad cœlos, sedet ad déxteram Dei Patris omnipoténtis: inde ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos. 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.
Deinde clara voce:
℣. Dómine, †︎ lábia mea apéries.
℟. Et os meum annuntiábit laudem tuam.
℣. O Lord, open Thou my lips.
℟. And my mouth shall show forth Thy praise.
℣. Deus ✠ in adjutórium meum inténde.
℟. Dómine ad adjuvándum me festína.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. Laus tibi Dómine, Rex ætérnæ glóriæ.
Make haste, O God, to deliver me.
Make haste to help me, O Lord.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Praise to Thee be given Lord, King of eternal glory.
Hódie si vocem Dómini audiéritis, * Nolíte obduráre corda vestra.
To-day if ye will hear the voice of the Lord: * Harden not your hearts.
Hódie si vocem Dómini audiéritis, * Nolíte obduráre corda vestra.
To-day if ye will hear the voice of the Lord: * Harden not your hearts.
Psalmus 94.
Veníte, exsultémus Dómino, jubilémus Deo salutári nostro: præoccupémus fáciem ejus in confessióne, et in psalmis jubilémus ei.
O come, let us sing unto the Lord, let us make a joyful noise to the God of our Salvation: let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto Him with psalms.
Hódie si vocem Dómini audiéritis, * Nolíte obduráre corda vestra.
To-day if ye will hear the voice of the Lord: * Harden not your hearts.
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.
Nolíte obduráre corda vestra.
Harden not your hearts.
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.
Hódie si vocem Dómini audiéritis, * Nolíte obduráre corda vestra.
To-day if ye will hear the voice of the Lord: * Harden not your hearts.
Sicut in exacerbatióne secúndum diem tentatiónis in desérto: ubi tentavérunt me patres vestri, probavérunt et vidérunt ópera mea.
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.
Nolíte obduráre corda vestra.
Harden not your hearts.
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.
Hódie si vocem Dómini audiéritis, * Nolíte obduráre corda vestra.
To-day if ye will hear the voice of the Lord: * Harden not your hearts.
Pange lingua gloriósi
Laúream certáminis,
Et super Crucis trophǽo
Dic triúmphum nóbilem:
Quáliter Redémptor orbis
Immolátus vícerit.
De paréntis protoplásti
Fraude Factor cóndolens,
Quando pomi noxiális
In necem morsu ruit:
Ipse lignum tunc notávit,
Damna ligni ut sólveret.
Hoc opus nostræ salútis
Ordo depopóscerat;
Multifórmis proditóris
Ars ut artem fálleret,
Et medélam ferret inde,
Hostis unde lǽserat.
Quando venit ergo sacri,
Plenitúdo témporis,
Missus est ab arce Patris
Natus, orbis Cónditor;
Atque ventre virgináli
Carne amíctus pródiit.
Vagit infans inter arcta
Cónditus præsépia:
Membra pannis involúta
Virgo Mater álligat:
Et Dei manus pedésque
Stricta cingit fáscia.
Sempitérna sit beátæ
Trinitáti glória,
Æqua Patri, Filióque;
Par decus Paráclito:
Uníus Triníque nomen
Laudet univérsitas.
Amen.
Ut non delínquam.
That I sin not.
Psalmus 38.
Dixi: Custódiam vias meas: * ut non delínquam in lingua mea.
2 Pósui ori meo custódiam, * cum consísteret peccátor advérsum me.
3 Obmútui, et humiliátus sum, et sílui a bonis: * et dolor meus renovátus est.
4 Concáluit cor meum intra me: * et in meditatióne mea exardéscet ignis.
5 Locútus sum in lingua mea: * Notum fac mihi Dómine finem meum.
6 Et númerum diérum meórum quis est: * ut sciam quid desit mihi.
7 Ecce mensurábiles posuísti dies meos: * et substántia mea tamquam níhilum ante te.
8 Verúmtamen univérsa vánitas, * omnis homo vivens.
9 Verúmtamen in imágine pertránsit homo: * sed et frustra conturbátur.
10 Thesaurízat: * et ignórat cui congregábit ea.
11 Et nunc quæ est exspectátio mea? Nonne Dóminus? * Et substántia mea apud te est.
12 Ab ómnibus iniquitátibus meis érue me: * oppróbrium insipiénti dedísti me.
13 Obmútui, et non apérui os meum, quóniam tu fecísti: * ámove a me plagas tuas.
14 A fortitúdine manus tuæ ego deféci in increpatiónibus: * propter iniquitátem corripuísti hóminem.
15 Et tabéscere fecísti sicut aráneam ánimam ejus: * verúmtamen vane conturbátur omnis homo.
16 Exaúdi oratiónem meam Dómine, et deprecatiónem meam: * aúribus pércipe lácrimas meas.
17 Ne síleas: quóniam ádvena ego sum apud te, et peregrínus, * sicut omnes patres mei.
18 Remítte mihi, ut refrígerer priúsquam ábeam, * et ámplius non ero.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
I said: I will take heed to my ways: * that I sin not with my tongue.
2 I have set guard to my mouth, * when the sinner stood against me.
3 I was dumb, and was humbled, and kept silence from good things: * and my sorrow was renewed.
4 My heart grew hot within me: * and in my meditation a fire shall flame out.
5 I spoke with my tongue: *O Lord, make me know my end.
6 And what is the number of my days: * that I may know what is wanting to me.
7 Behold thou hast made my days measurable: * and my substance is as nothing before thee.
8 And indeed all things are vanity: * every man living.
9 Surely man passeth as an image: * yea, and he is disquieted in vain.
10 He storeth up: * and he knoweth not for whom he shall gather these things.
11 And now what is my hope? is it not the Lord? * and my substance is with thee.
12 Deliver thou me from all my iniquities: * thou hast made me a reproach to the fool.
13 I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it. * Remove thy scourges from me.
14 The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes: * Thou hast corrected man for iniquity.
15 And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: * surely in vain is any man disquieted.
16 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: * give ear to my tears.
17 Be not silent: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner * as all my fathers were.
18 O forgive me, that I may be refreshed, before I go hence, * and be no more.
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 39.
Exspéctans exspectávi Dóminum, * et inténdit mihi.
2 Et exaudívit preces meas: * et edúxit me de lacu misériæ, et de luto fæcis.
3 Et státuit super petram pedes meos: * et diréxit gressus meos.
4 Et immísit in os meum cánticum novum, * carmen Deo nostro.
5 Vidébunt multi, et timébunt: * et sperábunt in Dómino.
6 Beátus vir, cujus est nomen Dómini spes ejus: * et non respéxit in vanitátes et insánias falsas.
7 Multa fecísti tu Dómine Deus meus mirabília tua: * et cogitatiónibus tuis non est qui símilis sit tibi.
8 Annuntiávi et locútus sum: * multiplicáti sunt super númerum.
9 Sacrifícium et oblatiónem noluísti: * aures autem perfecísti mihi.
10 Holocaústum et pro peccáto non postulásti: * tunc dixi: Ecce vénio.
11 In cápite libri scriptum est de me ut fácerem voluntátem tuam: * Deus meus vólui, et legem tuam in médio cordis mei.
12 Annuntiávi justítiam tuam in ecclésia magna, * ecce lábia mea non prohibébo: Dómine tu scisti.
13 Justítiam tuam non abscóndi in corde meo: * veritátem tuam et salutáre tuum dixi.
14 Non abscóndi misericórdiam tuam et veritátem tuam * a concílio multo.
15 Tu autem Dómine ne longe fácias miseratiónes tuas a me: * misericórdia tua et véritas tua semper suscepérunt me.
16 Quóniam circumdedérunt me mala, quorum non est númerus: * comprehendérunt me iniquitátes meæ, et non pótui ut vidérem.
17 Multiplicátæ sunt super capíllos cápitis mei: * et cor meum derelíquit me.
18 Compláceat tibi Dómine ut éruas me: * Dómine, ad adjuvándum me réspice.
19 Confundántur et revereántur simul, qui quærunt ánimam meam, * ut aúferant eam.
20 Convertántur retrórsum, et revereántur * qui volunt mihi mala.
21 Ferant conféstim confusiónem suam, * qui dicunt mihi: Euge, euge.
22 Exsúltent, et læténtur super te omnes quæréntes te: * et dicant semper: Magnificétur Dóminus: qui díligunt salutáre tuum.
23 Ego autem mendícus sum et pauper: * Dóminus sollícitus est mei.
24 Adjútor meus, et protéctor meus tu es: * Deus meus, ne tardáveris.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
With expectation I have waited for the Lord, * and he was attentive to me.
2 And he heard my prayers, * and brought me out of the pit of misery and the mire of dregs.
3 And he set my feet upon a rock, * and directed my steps.
4 And he put a new canticle into my mouth, * a song to our God.
5 Many shall see, and shall fear: * and they shall hope in the Lord.
6 Blessed is the man whose trust is in the name of the Lord; * and who hath not had regard to vanities, and lying follies.
7 Thou hast multiplied thy wonderful works, O Lord my God: * and in thy thoughts there is no one like to thee.
8 I have declared and I have spoken * they are multiplied above number.
9 Sacrifice and oblation thou didst not desire; * but thou hast pierced ears for me.
10 Burnt offering and sin offering thou didst not require: * Then said I, Behold I come.
11 In the head of the book it is written of me that I should do thy will: * O my God, I have desired it, and thy law in the midst of my heart.
12 I have declared thy justice in a great church, * lo, I will not restrain my lips: O Lord, thou knowest it.
13 I have not hid thy justice within my heart: * I have declared thy truth and thy salvation.
14 I have not concealed thy mercy and thy truth * from a great council.
15 Withhold not thou, O Lord, thy tender mercies from me: * thy mercy and thy truth have always upheld me.
16 For evils without number have surrounded me; * my iniquities have overtaken me, and I was not able to see.
17 They are multiplied above the hairs of my head: * and my heart hath forsaken me.
18 Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me, * look down, O Lord, to help me.
19 Let them be confounded and ashamed together, that seek after my soul * to take it away.
20 Let them be turned backward and be ashamed * that desire evils to me.
21 Let them immediately bear their confusion, * that say to me: Tis well, tis well.
22 Let all that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: * and let such as love thy salvation say always: The Lord be magnified.
23 But I am a beggar and poor: * the Lord is careful for me.
24 Thou art my helper and my protector: * O my God, be not slack.
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.
Ut non delínquam in lingua mea.
That I sin not with my tongue.
Sana.
Heal.
Psalmus 40.
Beátus qui intélligit super egénum, et paúperem: * in die mala liberábit eum Dóminus.
2 Dóminus consérvet eum, et vivíficet eum, et beátum fáciat eum in terra: * et non tradat eum in ánimam inimicórum ejus.
3 Dóminus opem ferat illi super lectum dolóris ejus: * univérsum stratum ejus versásti in infirmitáte ejus.
4 Ego dixi: Dómine miserére mei: * sana ánimam meam, quia peccávi tibi.
5 Inimíci mei dixérunt mala mihi: * Quando moriétur, et períbit nomen ejus?
6 Et si ingrediebátur ut vidéret, vana loquebátur, * cor ejus congregávit iniquitátem sibi.
7 Egrediebátur foras, * et loquebátur in idípsum.
8 Advérsum me susurrábant omnes inimíci mei: * advérsum me cogitábant mala mihi.
9 Verbum iníquum constituérunt advérsum me: * Numquid qui dormit non adjíciet ut resúrgat?
10 Etenim homo pacis meæ, in quo sperávi: * qui edébat panes meos, magnificávit super me supplantatiónem.
11 Tu autem Dómine miserére mei, et resúscita me: * et retríbuam eis.
12 In hoc cognóvi quóniam voluísti me: * quóniam non gaudébit inimícus meus super me.
13 Me autem propter innocéntiam suscepísti: * et confirmásti me in conspéctu tuo in ætérnum.
14 Benedíctus Dóminus Deus Israël a sǽculo et usque in sǽculum: * fiat, fiat.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: * the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.
2 The Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth: * and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.
3 The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: * thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.
4 I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: * heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.
5 My enemies have spoken evils against me: * when shall he die and his name perish?
6 And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: * his heart gathered together iniquity to itself.
7 He went out * and spoke to the same purpose.
8 All my enemies whispered together against me: * they devised evils to me.
9 They determined against me an unjust word: * shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?
10 For even the man of peace, in whom I trusted, * who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.
11 But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again: * and I will requite them.
12 By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me: * because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.
13 But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence: * and hast established me in thy sight for ever.
14 Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity. * So be it. So be it.
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 41.
Quemádmodum desíderat cervus ad fontes aquárum: * ita desíderat ánima mea ad te Deus.
2 Sitívit ánima mea ad Deum fortem vivum: * quando véniam, et apparébo ante fáciem Dei?
3 Fuérunt mihi lácrimæ meæ panes die ac nocte: * dum dícitur mihi quotídie: Ubi est Deus tuus?
4 Hæc recordátus sum, et effúdi in me ánimam meam: * quóniam transíbo in locum tabernáculi admirábilis, usque ad domum Dei.
5 In voce exsultatiónis, et confessiónis: * sonus epulántis.
6 Quare tristis es ánima mea? * et quare contúrbas me?
7 Spera in Deo, quóniam adhuc confitébor illi: * salutáre vultus mei, et Deus meus.
8 Ad meípsum ánima mea conturbáta est: * proptérea memor ero tui de terra Jordánis, et Hermóniim a monte módico.
9 Abýssus abýssum ínvocat, * in voce cataractárum tuárum.
10 Omnia excélsa tua, et fluctus tui * super me transiérunt.
11 In die mandávit Dóminus misericórdiam suam: * et nocte cánticum ejus.
12 Apud me orátio Deo vitæ meæ, * dicam Deo: Suscéptor meus es.
13 Quare oblítus es mei? * et quare contristátus incédo, dum afflígit me inimícus?
14 Dum confringúntur ossa mea, * exprobravérunt mihi qui tríbulant me inimíci mei.
15 Dum dicunt mihi per síngulos dies: Ubi est Deus tuus? * quare tristis es ánima mea, et quare contúrbas me?
16 Spera in Deo, quóniam adhuc confitébor illi: * salutáre vultus mei, et Deus meus.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; * so my soul panteth after thee, O God.
2 My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; * when shall I come and appear before the face of God?
3 My tears have been my bread day and night, * whilst it is said to me daily: Where is thy God?
4 These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me: * for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God:
5 With the voice of joy and praise; * the noise of one feasting.
6 Why art thou sad, O my soul? * and why dost thou trouble me?
7 Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: * the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
8 My soul is troubled within myself: * therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan and Hermoniim, from the little hill.
9 Deep calleth on deep, * at the noise of thy flood-gates.
10 All thy heights and thy billows * have passed over me.
11 In the daytime the Lord hath commanded his mercy; * and a canticle to him in the night.
12 With me is prayer to the God of my life. * I will say to God: Thou art my support.
13 Why hast thou forgotten me? * and why go I mourning, whilst my enemy afflicteth me?
14 Whilst my bones are broken, * my enemies who trouble me have reproached me;
15 Whilst they say to me day by day: Where is thy God? * Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me?
16 Hope thou in God, for I will still give praise to him: * the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
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.
Sana Dómine ánimam meam, quia peccávi tibi.
Heal my soul, O Lord, for I have sinned against Thee.
Eructávit.
Mine heart is overflowing.
Psalmus 43.
Deus aúribus nostris audívimus: * patres nostri annuntiavérunt nobis.
2 Opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum, * et in diébus antíquis.
3 Manus tua Gentes dispérdidit, et plantásti eos: * afflixísti pópulos, et expulísti eos.
4 Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et bráchium eórum non salvávit eos:
5 Sed déxtera tua, et bráchium tuum, et illuminátio vultus tui: * quóniam complacuísti in eis.
6 Tu es ipse Rex meus et Deus meus: * qui mandas salútes Jacob.
7 In te inimícos nostros ventilábimus cornu, * et in nómine tuo spernémus insurgéntes in nobis.
8 Non enim in arcu meo sperábo: * et gládius meus non salvábit me.
9 Salvásti enim nos de affligéntibus nos: * et odiéntes nos confudísti.
10 In Deo laudábimur tota die: * et in nómine tuo confitébimur in sǽculum.
11 Nunc autem repulísti et confudísti nos: * et non egrediéris Deus in virtútibus nostris.
12 Avertísti nos retrórsum post inimícos nostros: * et qui odérunt nos, diripiébant sibi.
13 Dedísti nos tamquam oves escárum: * et in Géntibus dispersísti nos.
14 Vendidísti pópulum tuum sine prétio: * et non fuit multitúdo in commutatiónibus eórum.
15 Posuísti nos oppróbrium vicínis nostris, * subsannatiónem et derísum his, qui sunt in circúitu nostro.
16 Posuísti nos in similitúdinem Géntibus: * commotiónem cápitis in pópulis.
17 Tota die verecúndia mea contra me est, * et confúsio faciéi meæ coopéruit me.
18 A voce exprobrántis, et obloquéntis: * a fácie inimíci et persequéntis.
19 Hæc ómnia venérunt super nos, nec oblíti sumus te: * et iníque non égimus in testaménto tuo.
20 Et non recéssit retro cor nostrum: * et declinásti sémitas nostras a via tua:
21 Quóniam humiliásti nos in loco afflictiónis, * et coopéruit nos umbra mortis.
22 Si oblíti sumus nomen Dei nostri, * et si expándimus manus nostras ad deum aliénum:
23 Nonne Deus requíret ista? * ipse enim novit abscóndita cordis.
24 Quóniam propter te mortificámur tota die: * æstimáti sumus sicut oves occisiónis.
25 Exsúrge, quare obdórmis Dómine? * exsúrge, et ne repéllas in finem.
26 Quare fáciem tuam avértis, * oblivísceris inópiæ nostræ, et tribulatiónis nostræ?
27 Quóniam humiliáta est in púlvere ánima nostra: * conglutinátus est in terra venter noster.
28 Exsúrge Dómine, ádjuva nos: * et rédime nos propter nomen tuum.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
We have heard, O God, with our ears: * our fathers have declared to us,
2 The work, thou hast wrought in their days, * and in the days of old.
3 Thy hand destroyed the Gentiles, and thou plantedst them: * thou didst afflict the people and cast them out.
4 For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword: * neither did their own arm save them.
5 But thy right hand and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance: * because thou wast pleased with them.
6 Thou art thyself my king and my God, * who commandest the saving of Jacob.
7 Through thee we will push down our enemies with the horn: * and through thy name we will despise them that rise up against us.
8 For I will not trust in my bow: * neither shall my sword save me.
9 But thou hast saved us from them that afflict us: * and hast put them to shame that hate us.
10 In God shall we glory all the day long: * and in thy name we will give praise for ever.
11 But now thou hast cast us off, and put us to shame: * and thou, O God, wilt not go out with our armies.
12 Thou hast made us turn our back to our enemies: * and they that hated us plundered for themselves.
13 Thou hast given us up like sheep to be eaten: * thou hast scattered us among the nations.
14 Thou hast sold thy people for no price: * and there was no reckoning in the exchange of them.
15 Thou hast made us a reproach to our neighbours, * a scoff and derision to them that are round about us.
16 Thou hast made us a byword among the Gentiles: * a shaking of the head among the people.
17 All the day long my shame is before me: * and the confusion of my face hath covered me,
18 At the voice of him that reproacheth and detracteth me: * at the face of the enemy and persecutor.
19 All these things have come upon us, yet we have not forgotten thee: * and we have not done wickedly in thy covenant.
20 And our heart hath not turned back: * neither hast thou turned aside our steps from thy way.
21 For thou hast humbled us in the place of affliction: * and the shadow of death hath covered us.
22 If we have forgotten the name of our God, * and if we have spread forth our hands to a strange god:
23 Shall not God search out these things: * for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
24 Because for thy sake we are killed all the day long: * we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
25 Arise, why sleepest thou, O Lord? * arise, and cast us not off to the end.
26 Why turnest thou thy face away? * and forgettest our want and our trouble?
27 For our soul is humbled down to the dust: * our belly cleaveth to the earth.
28 Arise, O Lord, help us * and redeem us for thy name's sake.
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 44.
Eructávit cor meum verbum bonum: * dico ego ópera mea regi.
2 Lingua mea cálamus scribæ, * velóciter scribéntis.
3 Speciósus forma præ fíliis hóminum, diffúsa est grátia in lábiis tuis: * proptérea benedíxit te Deus in ætérnum.
4 Accíngere gládio tuo super femur tuum, * potentíssime,
5 Spécie tua et pulchritúdine tua * inténde, próspere procéde, et regna.
6 Propter veritátem, et mansuetúdinem, et justítiam: * et dedúcet te mirabíliter déxtera tua.
7 Sagíttæ tuæ acútæ, pópuli sub te cadent, * in corda inimicórum regis.
8 Sedes tua Deus in sǽculum sǽculi: * virga directiónis virga regni tui.
9 Dilexísti justítiam, et odísti iniquitátem: * proptérea unxit te Deus Deus tuus óleo lætítiæ præ consórtibus tuis.
10 Myrrha, et gutta, et cásia a vestiméntis tuis, a dómibus ebúrneis: * ex quibus delectavérunt te fíliæ regum in honóre tuo.
11 Astitit regína a dextris tuis in vestítu deauráto: * circúmdata varietáte.
12 Audi fília, et vide, et inclína aurem tuam: * et oblivíscere pópulum tuum, et domum patris tui.
13 Et concupíscet Rex decórem tuum: * quóniam ipse est Dóminus Deus tuus, et adorábunt eum.
14 Et fíliæ Tyri in munéribus * vultum tuum deprecabúntur: omnes dívites plebis.
15 Omnis glória ejus fíliæ Regis ab intus, * in fímbriis aúreis circumamícta varietátibus.
16 Adducéntur Regi vírgines post eam: * próximæ ejus afferéntur tibi.
17 Afferéntur in lætítia et exsultatióne: * adducéntur in templum Regis.
18 Pro pátribus tuis nati sunt tibi fílii: * constítues eos príncipes super omnem terram.
19 Mémores erunt nóminis tui: * in omni generatióne et generatiónem.
20 Proptérea pópuli confitebúntur tibi in ætérnum: * et in sǽculum sǽculi.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
My heart hath uttered a good word: * I speak my works to the king;
2 My tongue is the pen of a scrivener * that writeth swiftly.
3 Thou art beautiful above the sons of men: grace is poured abroad in thy lips; * therefore hath God blessed thee for ever.
4 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, * O thou most mighty.
5 With thy comeliness and thy beauty set out, * proceed prosperously, and reign.
6 Because of truth and meekness and justice: * and thy right hand shall conduct thee wonderfully.
7 Thy arrows are sharp: under thee shall people fall, * into the hearts of the king's enemies.
8 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: * the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of uprightness.
9 Thou hast loved justice, and hated iniquity: * therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10 Myrrh and stacte and cassia perfume thy garments, from the ivory houses: * out of which the daughters of kings have delighted thee in thy glory.
11 The queen stood on thy right hand, in gilded clothing; * surrounded with variety.
12 Hearken, O daughter, and see, and incline thy ear: * and forget thy people and thy father's house.
13 And the king shall greatly desire thy beauty; * for he is the Lord thy God, and him they shall adore.
14 And the daughters of Tyre with gifts, * yea, all the rich among the people, shall entreat thy countenance.
15 All the glory of the king's daughter is within in golden borders, * Clothed round about with varieties.
16 After her shall virgins be brought to the king: * her neighbours shall be brought to thee.
17 They shall be brought with gladness and rejoicing: * they shall be brought into the temple of the king.
18 Instead of thy fathers, sons are born to thee: * thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
19 They shall remember thy name * throughout all generations.
20 Therefore shall people praise thee for ever; * yea, for ever and 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.

Deus noster refúgium, et virtus: * adjútor in tribulatiónibus quæ invenérunt nos nimis.
2 Proptérea non timébimus dum turbábitur terra: * et transferéntur montes in cor maris.
3 Sonuérunt, et turbátæ sunt aquæ eórum: * conturbáti sunt montes in fortitúdine ejus.

Our God is our refuge and strength: * a helper in troubles, which have found us exceedingly.
2 Therefore we will not fear, when the earth shall be troubled; * and the mountains shall be removed into the heart of the sea.
3 Their waters roared and were troubled: * the mountains were troubled with his strength.
4 The stream of the river maketh the city of God joyful: * the most High hath sanctified his own tabernacle.
5 God is in the midst thereof, it shall not be moved: * God will help it in the morning early.
6 Nations were troubled, and kingdoms were bowed down: * he uttered his voice, the earth trembled.
7 The Lord of armies is with us: * the God of Jacob is our protector.
8 Come and behold ye the works of the Lord: what wonders he hath done upon earth, * Making wars to cease even to the end of the earth.
9 He shall destroy the bow, and break the weapons: * and the shield he shall burn in the fire.
10 Be still and see that I am God; * I will be exalted among the nations, and I will be exalted in the earth.
11 The Lord of armies is with us: * the God of Jacob is our protector.

Magnus Dóminus, et laudábilis nimis * in civitáte Dei nostri, in monte sancto ejus.
2 Fundátur exsultatióne univérsæ terræ mons Sion, * látera Aquilónis, cívitas regis magni.
3 Deus in dómibus ejus cognoscétur, * cum suscípiet eam.
4 Quóniam ecce reges terræ congregáti sunt: * convenérunt in unum.
5 Ipsi vidéntes sic admiráti sunt, conturbáti sunt, commóti sunt: * tremor apprehéndit eos.
6 Ibi dolóres ut parturiéntis: * in spíritu veheménti cónteres naves Tharsis.
7 Sicut audívimus, sic vídimus in civitáte Dómini virtútum, in civitáte Dei nostri: * Deus fundávit eam in ætérnum.
8 Suscépimus Deus misericórdiam tuam, * in médio templi tui.
9 Secúndum nomen tuum, Deus, sic et laus tua in fines terræ: * justítia plena est déxtera tua.
10 Lætétur mons Sion, et exsúltent fíliæ Judæ * propter judícia tua Dómine.
11 Circúmdate Sion, et complectímini eam: * narráte in túrribus ejus.
12 Pónite corda vestra in virtúte ejus: * et distribúite domos ejus, ut enarrétis in progénie áltera.
13 Quóniam hic est Deus, Deus noster in ætérnum, et in sǽculum sǽculi: * ipse reget nos in sǽcula.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.

Great is the Lord, and exceedingly to be praised * in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
2 With the joy of the whole earth is mount Sion founded, * on the sides of the north, the city of the great king.
3 In her houses shall God be known, * when he shall protect her.
4 For behold the kings of the earth assembled themselves: * they gathered together.
5 So they saw, and they wondered, they were troubled, they were moved: * Trembling took hold of them.
6 There were pains as of a woman in labour. * With a vehement wind thou shalt break in pieces the ships of Tharsis.
7 As we have heard, so have we seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: * God hath founded it for ever.
8 We have received thy mercy, O God, * in the midst of thy temple.
9 According to thy name, O God, so also is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: * thy right hand is full of justice.
10 Let mount Sion rejoice, and the daughters of Juda be glad; * because of thy judgments, O Lord.
11 Surround Sion, and encompass her: * tell ye in her towers.
12 Set your hearts on her strength; * and distribute her houses, that ye may relate it in another generation.
13 For this is God, our God unto eternity, and for ever and ever: * he shall rule us for evermore.
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 48.
Audíte hæc omnes Gentes: * aúribus percípite omnes, qui habitátis orbem:
2 Quique terrígenæ, et fílii hóminum: * simul in unum dives et pauper.
3 Os meum loquétur sapiéntiam: * et meditátio cordis mei prudéntiam.
4 Inclinábo in parábolam aurem meam: * apériam in psaltério propositiónem meam.
5 Cur timébo in die mala? * iníquitas calcánei mei circúmdabit me:
6 Qui confídunt in virtúte sua: * et in multitúdine divitiárum suárum gloriántur.
7 Frater non rédimit, rédimet homo: * non dabit Deo placatiónem suam.
8 Et prétium redemptiónis ánimæ suæ: * et laborábit in ætérnum, et vivet adhuc in finem.
9 Non vidébit intéritum, cum víderit sapiéntes moriéntes: * simul insípiens, et stultus períbunt.
10 Et relínquent aliénis divítias suas: * et sepúlchra eórum domus illórum in ætérnum.
11 Tabernácula eórum in progénie et progénie: * vocavérunt nómina sua in terris suis.
12 Et homo, cum in honóre esset, non intelléxit: * comparátus est juméntis insipiéntibus, et símilis factus est illis.
13 Hæc via illórum scándalum ipsis: * et póstea in ore suo complacébunt.
14 Sicut oves in inférno pósiti sunt: * mors depáscet eos.
15 Et dominabúntur eórum justi in matutíno: * et auxílium eórum veteráscet in inférno a glória eórum.
16 Verúmtamen Deus rédimet ánimam meam de manu ínferi, * cum accéperit me.
17 Ne timúeris cum dives factus fúerit homo: * et cum multiplicáta fúerit glória domus ejus.
18 Quóniam cum interíerit, non sumet ómnia: * neque descéndet cum eo glória ejus.
19 Quia ánima ejus in vita ipsíus benedicétur: * confitébitur tibi cum beneféceris ei.
20 Introíbit usque in progénies patrum suórum; * et usque in ætérnum non vidébit lumen.
21 Homo, cum in honóre esset, non intelléxit: * comparátus est juméntis insipiéntibus, et símilis factus est illis.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Hear these things, all ye nations: * give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world.
2 All you that are earthborn, and you sons of men: * both rich and poor together.
3 My mouth shall speak wisdom: * and the meditation of my heart understanding.
4 I will incline my ear to a parable; * I will open my proposition on the psaltery.
5 Why shall I fear in the evil day? * the iniquity of my heel shall encompass me.
6 They that trust in their own strength, * and glory in the multitude of their riches,
7 No brother can redeem, nor shall man redeem: * he shall not give to God his ransom,
8 Nor the price of the redemption of his soul: * and shall labour for ever, and shall still live unto the end.
9 He shall not see destruction, when he shall see the wise dying: * the senseless and the fool shall perish together:
10 And they shall leave their riches to strangers: * And their sepulchres shall be their houses for ever.
11 Their dwelling places to all generations: * they have called their lands by their names.
12 And man when he was in honour did not understand; * he is compared to senseless beasts, and is become like to them.
13 This way of theirs is a stumblingblock to them: * and afterwards they shall delight in their mouth.
14 They are laid in hell like sheep: * death shall feed upon them.
15 And the just shall have dominion over them in the morning; * and their help shall decay in hell from their glory.
16 But God will redeem my soul from the hand of hell, * when he shall receive me.
17 Be not thou afraid, when a man shall be made rich, * and when the glory of his house shall be increased.
18 For when he shall die he shall take nothing away; * nor shall his glory descend with him.
19 For in his lifetime his soul will be blessed: * and he will praise thee when thou shalt do well to him.
20 He shall go in to the generations of his fathers: * and he shall never see light.
21 Man when he was in honour did not understand: * he hath been compared to senseless beasts, and made like to them.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

Deus deórum.
The God of gods,
Psalmus 49.
Deus deórum Dóminus locútus est: * et vocávit terram.
2 A solis ortu usque ad occásum: * ex Sion spécies decóris ejus.
3 Deus maniféste véniet: * Deus noster et non silébit.
4 Ignis in conspéctu ejus exardéscet: * et in circúitu ejus tempéstas válida.
5 Advocábit cœlum desúrsum: * et terram discérnere pópulum suum.
6 Congregáte illi sanctos ejus: * qui órdinant testaméntum ejus super sacrifícia.
7 Et annuntiábunt cœli justítiam ejus: * quóniam Deus judex est.
8 Audi pópulus meus, et loquar: Israël, et testificábor tibi: * Deus Deus tuus ego sum.
9 Non in sacrifíciis tuis árguam te: * holocaústa autem tua in conspéctu meo sunt semper.
10 Non accípiam de domo tua vítulos: * neque de grégibus tuis hircos.
11 Quóniam meæ sunt omnes feræ silvárum, * juménta in móntibus et boves.
12 Cognóvi ómnia volatília cœli: * et pulchritúdo agri mecum est.
13 Si esuríero, non dicam tibi: * meus est enim orbis terræ, et plenitúdo ejus.
14 Numquid manducábo carnes taurórum? * aut sánguinem hircórum potábo?
15 Immola Deo sacrifícium laudis: * et redde Altíssimo vota tua.
16 Et ínvoca me in die tribulatiónis: * éruam te, et honorificábis me.
17 Peccatóri autem dixit Deus: * Quare tu enárras justítias meas, et assúmis testaméntum meum per os tuum?
18 Tu vero odísti disciplínam: * et projecísti sermónes meos retrórsum:
19 Si vidébas furem, currébas cum eo: * et cum adúlteris portiónem tuam ponébas.
20 Os tuum abundávit malítia: * et lingua tua concinnábat dolos.
21 Sedens advérsus fratrem tuum loquebáris, et advérsus fílium matris tuæ ponébas scándalum: * hæc fecísti, et tácui.
22 Existimásti iníque quod ero tui símilis: * árguam te, et státuam contra fáciem tuam.
23 Intellígite hæc qui obliviscímini Deum: * nequándo rápiat, et non sit qui erípiat.
24 Sacrifícium laudis honorificábit me: * et illic iter, quo osténdam illi salutáre Dei.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken: * and he hath called the earth.
2 From the rising of the sun, to the going down thereof: * Out of Sion the loveliness of his beauty.
3 God shall come manifestly: * our God shall not keep silence.
4 A fire shall burn before him: * and a mighty tempest shall be round about him.
5 He shall call heaven from above, * and the earth, to judge his people.
6 Gather ye together his saints to him: * who set his covenant before sacrifices.
7 And the heavens shall declare his justice: * for God is judge.
8 Hear, O my people, and I will speak: O Israel, and I will testify to thee: * I am God, thy God.
9 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices: * and thy burnt offerings are always in my sight.
10 I will not take calves out of thy house: * nor he goats out of thy flocks.
11 For all the beasts of the woods are mine: * the cattle on the hills, and the oxen.
12 I know all the fowls of the air: * and with me is the beauty of the field.
13 If I should be hungry, I would not tell thee: * for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
14 Shall I eat the flesh of bullocks? * or shall I drink the blood of goats?
15 Offer to God the sacrifice of praise: * and pay thy vows to the most High.
16 And call upon me in the day of trouble: * I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
17 But to the sinner God hath said: * Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth?
18 Seeing thou hast hated discipline: * and hast cast my words behind thee.
19 If thou didst see a thief thou didst run with him: * and with adulterers thou hast been a partaker.
20 Thy mouth hath abounded with evil, * and thy tongue framed deceits.
21 Sitting thou didst speak against thy brother, and didst lay a scandal against thy mother's son: * These things hast thou done, and I was silent.
22 Thou thoughtest unjustly that I should be like to thee: * but I will reprove thee, and set before thy face.
23 Understand these things, you that forget God; * lest he snatch you away, and there be none to deliver you.
24 The sacrifice of praise shall glorify me: * and there is the way by which I will shew him the salvation of God.
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 51.
Quid gloriáris in malítia, * qui potens es in iniquitáte?
2 Tota die injustítiam cogitávit lingua tua: * sicut novácula acúta fecísti dolum.
3 Dilexísti malítiam super benignitátem: * iniquitátem magis quam loqui æquitátem.
4 Dilexísti ómnia verba præcipitatiónis, * lingua dolósa.
5 Proptérea Deus déstruet te in finem, * evéllet te, et emigrábit te de tabernáculo tuo: et radícem tuam de terra vivéntium.
6 Vidébunt justi, et timébunt, et super eum ridébunt, et dicent: * Ecce homo, qui non pósuit Deum adjutórem suum:
7 Sed sperávit in multitúdine divitiárum suárum: * et præváluit in vanitáte sua.
8 Ego autem, sicut olíva fructífera in domo Dei, * sperávi in misericórdia Dei in ætérnum: et in sǽculum sǽculi.
9 Confitébor tibi in sǽculum, quia fecísti: * et exspectábo nomen tuum, quóniam bonum est in conspéctu sanctórum tuórum.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Why dost thou glory in malice, * thou that art mighty in iniquity?
2 All the day long thy tongue hath devised injustice: * as a sharp razor, thou hast wrought deceit.
3 Thou hast loved malice more than goodness: * and iniquity rather than to speak righteousness.
4 Thou hast loved all the words of ruin, * O deceitful tongue.
5 Therefore will God destroy thee for ever: * he will pluck thee out, and remove thee from thy dwelling place: and thy root out of the land of the living.
6 The just shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say: * Behold the man that made not God his helper:
7 But trusted in the abundance of his riches: * and prevailed in his vanity.
8 But I, as a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, * have hoped in the mercy of God for ever, yea for ever and ever.
9 I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: * and I will wait on thy name, for it is good in the sight of thy saints.
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.

De Jeremía Prophéta.
Lesson from the book of Jeremias
Jerem. 11. c.
Quid est, quod diléctus meus in domo mea fecit scélera multa? numquid carnes sanctæ aúferent a te malítias tuas, in quibus gloriáta es? Olívam úberem, pulchram, fructíferam, speciósam vocávit Dóminus nomen tuum: ad vocem loquélæ, grandis exársit ignis in ea, et combústa sunt frutéta ejus. Et Dóminus exercítuum qui plantávit te, locútus est super te malum: pro malis domus Israël et domus Juda, quæ fecérunt sibi ad irritándum me, libántes Báalim. Tu autem Dómine demonstrásti mihi, et cognóvi: tunc ostendísti mihi stúdia eórum. Et ego quasi agnus mansuétus, qui portátur ad víctimam: et non cognóvi quia cogitavérunt super me consília, dicéntes: Mittámus lignum in panem ejus, et eradámus eum de terra vivéntium, et nomen ejus non memorétur ámplius. Tu autem Dómine Sábaoth, qui júdicas juste, et probas renes et corda, vídeam ultiónem tuam ex eis: tibi enim revelávi causam meam.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
What is the meaning that my beloved hath wrought much wickedness in my house? shall the holy flesh take away from thee thy crimes, in which thou hast boasted? The Lord called thy name, a plentiful olive tree, fair, fruitful, and beautiful: at the noise of a word, a great fire was kindled in it and the branches thereof are burnt. And the Lord of hosts that planted thee, hath pronounced evil against thee: for the evils of the house of Israel, and the house of Juda, which they have done to themselves, to provoke me, offering sacrifice to Baalim. But thou, O Lord, hast shewn me, and I have known: then thou shewedst me their doings. And I was as a meek lamb, that is carried to be a victim: and I knew not that they had devised counsels against me, saying: Let us put wood on his bread, and cut him off from the land of the living, and let his name be remembered no more. But thou, O Lord of Sabaoth, who judgest justly, and triest the reins and hearts, let me see thy revenge on them: for to thee I have revealed my cause.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Justus quidem tu es Dómine, si dísputem tecum: verúmtamen justa loquar ad te: Quare via impiórum prosperátur: bene est ómnibus, qui prævaricántur, et iníque agunt? Plantásti eos, et radícem misérunt: profíciunt et fáciunt fructum: prope es tu ori eórum, et longe a rénibus eórum. Et tu Dómine nosti me, vidísti me, et probásti cor meum tecum: cóngrega eos quasi gregem ad víctimam, et sanctífica eos in die occisiónis. Usquequo lugébit terra, et herba omnis regiónis siccábitur propter malítiam habitántium in ea? consúmptum est ánimal, et vólucre, quóniam dixérunt: Non vidébit novíssima nostra.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
Thou indeed, O Lord, art just, if I plead with thee, but yet I will speak what is just to thee: Why doth the way of the wicked prosper: why is it well with all them that transgress, and do wickedly? Thou hast planted them, and they have taken root: they prosper and bring forth fruit: thou art near in their mouth, and far from their reins. And thou, O Lord, hast known me, thou hast seen me, and proved my heart with thee: gather them together as sheep for a sacrifice, and prepare them for the day of slaughter. How long shall the land mourn, and the herb of every field wither for the wickedness of them that dwell therein? The beasts and the birds are consumed: because they have said: He shall not see our last end.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Deus Israël, propter te sustínui impropérium, opéruit reveréntia fáciem meam, extráneus factus sum frátribus meis, et hospes fíliis matris meæ: * Quóniam zelus domus tuæ comédit me.

Relíqui domum meam, dimísi hæreditátem meam: dedi diléctam ánimam meam in manu inimicórum ejus. Facta est mihi hæréditas mea quasi leo in silva: dedit contra me vocem, ídeo odívi eam. Numquid avis díscolor hæréditas mea mihi? numquid avis tincta per totum? veníte, congregámini omnes béstiæ terræ, properáte ad devorándum. Pastóres multi demolíti sunt víneam meam, conculcavérunt partem meam: dedérunt portiónem meam desiderábilem in desértum solitúdinis. Posuérunt eam in dissipatiónem, luxítque super me: desolatióne desoláta est omnis terra, quia nullus est qui recógitet corde.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
I have forsaken my house, I have left my inheritance: I have given my dear soul into the land of her enemies. My inheritance is become to me as a lion in the wood: it hath cried out against me, therefore have I hated it. Is my inheritance to me as a speckled bird? Is it as a bird died throughout? come ye, assemble yourselves, all the beasts of the earth, make haste to devour. Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot: they have changed my delightful portion into a desolate wilderness. They have laid it waste, and it hath mourned for me. With desolation is all the land made desolate; because there is none that considereth in the heart.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

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.

Discérne causam meam.

Psalmus 42.
Júdica me Deus, et discérne causam meam de gente non sancta, * ab hómine iníquo, et dolóso érue me.
2 Quia tu es Deus fortitúdo mea: * Quare me repulísti? et quare tristis incédo, dum afflígit me inimícus?
3 Emítte lucem tuam et veritátem tuam: * ipsa me deduxérunt, et adduxérunt in montem sanctum tuum, et in tabernácula tua.
4 Et introíbo ad altáre Dei: * ad Deum, qui lætíficat juventútem meam.
5 Confitébor tibi in cíthara Deus meus: * quare tristis es ánima mea? et quare contúrbas me?
6 Spera in Deo, quóniam adhuc confitébor illi: * salutáre vultus mei, et Deus meus.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation that is not holy: * deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.
2 For thou art God my strength: * why hast thou cast me off? and why do I go sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me?
3 Send forth thy light and thy truth: * they have conducted me, and brought me unto thy holy hill, and into thy tabernacles.
4 And I will go in to the altar of God: * to God who giveth joy to my youth.
5 To thee, O God my God, I will give praise upon the harp: * why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me?
6 Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: * the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
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.
Discérne causam meam Dómine: ab hómine iníquo et dolóso éripe me.
Plead my cause, O Lord; deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.

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.

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.

O Lord, I am oppressed,
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.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.

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.
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.

Hymnus.
Lustra sex qui jam perégit,
Tempus implens córporis,
Sponte líbera Redémptor
Passióni déditus,
Agnus in Crucis levátur
Immolándus stípite.
Felle potus ecce languet:
Spina, clavi, láncea
Mite corpus perforárunt:
Unda manat, et cruor:
Terra, pontus, astra, mundus,
Quo lavántur flúmine!
Crux fidélis, inter omnes
Arbor una nóbilis:
Silva talem nulla profert
Fronde, flore, gérmine:
Dulce ferrum, dulce lignum,
Dulce pondus sústinent.
Flecte ramos arbor alta,
Tensa laxa víscera,
Et rigor lentéscat ille,
Quem dedit natívitas;
Et supérni membra regis
Tende miti stípite.
Sola digna tu fuísti
Ferre mundi víctimam;
Atque portum præparáre
Arca mundo naúfrago,
Quam sacer cruor perúnxit,
Fusus Agni córpore.
Sempitérna sit beátæ
Trinitáti glória,
Æqua Patri, Filióque;
Par decus Paráclito:
Uníus Triníque nomen
Laudet univérsitas.
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.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
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.
Ante diem festum Paschæ, sciens Jesus quia venit hora ejus, cum dilexísset suos, in finem diléxit eos.
Now, before the Feast of the Passover, as Jesus knew that His hour was come, having loved His Own which were in the world, He loved them unto the end.
