Die 3 Octobris 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.

Psalmus 94.
Veníte, exsultémus Dómino, jubilémus Deo salutári nostro: præoccupémus fáciem ejus in confessióne, et in psalmis jubilémus ei.

Ave María, grátia plena, * Dóminus tecum.
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.
Ave María, grátia plena, * Dóminus tecum.
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.

Perfúsa cœli grátia,
Gestant puéllæ víscera.
Beáta Mater múnere,
Cujus supérnus ártifex
Mundum pugíllo cóntinens,
Ventris sub arca clausus est.
Beáta cœli núntio,
Fœcúnda sancto Spíritu,

In sempitérna sǽcula.
Amen.
Quia mirabília.
For marvellous things.
Psalmus 97.
Cantáte Dómino cánticum novum: * quia mirabília fecit.
2 Salvávit sibi déxtera ejus: * et bráchium sanctum ejus.
3 Notum fecit Dóminus salutáre suum: * in conspéctu Géntium revelávit justítiam suam.
4 Recordátus est misericórdiæ suæ, * et veritátis suæ dómui Israël.
5 Vidérunt omnes términi terræ * salutáre Dei nostri.
6 Jubiláte Deo omnis terra: * cantáte, et exsultáte, et psállite.
7 Psállite Dómino in cíthara, in cíthara et voce psalmi: * in tubis ductílibus, et voce tubæ córneæ.
8 Jubiláte in conspéctu regis Dómini: * moveátur mare, et plenitúdo ejus: orbis terrárum, et qui hábitant in eo.
9 Flúmina plaudent manu, simul montes exsultábunt a conspéctu Dómini: * quóniam venit judicáre terram.
10 Judicábit orbem terrárum in justítia, * et pópulos in æquitáte.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: * because he hath done wonderful things.
2 His right hand hath wrought for him salvation, * and his arm is holy.
3 The Lord hath made known his salvation: * he hath revealed his justice in the sight of the Gentiles.
4 He hath remembered his mercy * and his truth toward the house of Israel.
5 All the ends of the earth * have seen the salvation of our God.
6 Sing joyfully to God, all the earth; * make melody, rejoice and sing.
7 Sing praise to the Lord on the harp, on the harp, and with the voice of a psalm: * With long trumpets, and sound of cornet.
8 Make a joyful noise before the Lord our king: * Let the sea be moved and the fulness thereof: the world and they that dwell therein.
9 The rivers shall clap their hands, the mountains shall rejoice together at the presence of the Lord: * because he cometh to judge the earth.
10 He shall judge the world with justice, * and the people with equity.
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 98.
Dóminus regnávit, irascántur pópuli: * qui sedet super Chérubim, moveátur terra.
2 Dóminus in Sion magnus: * et excélsus super omnes pópulos.
3 Confiteántur nómini tuo magno: quóniam terríbile, et sanctum est: * et honor regis judícium díligit.
4 Tu parásti directiónes: * judícium et justítiam in Jacob tu fecísti.
5 Exaltáte Dóminum Deum nostrum, et adoráte scabéllum pedum ejus: * quóniam sanctum est.
6 Móyses et Aaron in sacerdótibus ejus: * et Sámuël inter eos, qui ínvocant nomen ejus:
7 Invocábant Dóminum, et ipse exaudiébat eos: * in colúmna nubis loquebátur ad eos.
8 Custodiébant testimónia ejus, * et præcéptum quod dedit illis.
9 Dómine Deus noster tu exaudiébas eos: * Deus tu propítius fuísti eis, et ulcíscens in omnes adinventiónes eórum.
10 Exaltáte Dóminum Deum nostrum, et adoráte in monte sancto ejus: * quóniam sanctus Dóminus Deus noster.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: * he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.
2 The Lord is great in Sion, * and high above all people.
3 Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy: * And the king's honour loveth judgment.
4 Thou hast prepared directions: * thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.
5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, * for it is holy.
6 Moses and Aaron among his priests: * and Samuel among them that call upon his name.
7 They called upon the Lord, and he heard them: * He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud.
8 They kept his testimonies, * and the commandment which he gave them.
9 Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: * thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.
10 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: * for the Lord our God is holy.
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.
Quia mirabília fecit Dóminus.
For marvellous things hath the Lord done.
Bonum est.
It is good.
Psalmus 91.
Bonum est confitéri Dómino: * et psállere nómini tuo Altíssime.
2 Ad annuntiándum mane misericórdiam tuam: * et veritátem tuam per noctem.
3 In decachórdo, psaltério: * cum cántico, in cíthara.
4 Quia delectásti me Dómine in factúra tua: * et in opéribus mánuum tuárum exsultábo.
5 Quam magnificáta sunt ópera tua Dómine! * nimis profúndæ factæ sunt cogitatiónes tuæ.
6 Vir insípiens non cognóscet: * et stultus non intélliget hæc.
7 Cum exórti fúerint peccatóres sicut fœnum: * et apparúerint omnes, qui operántur iniquitátem:
8 Ut intéreant in sǽculum sǽculi: * tu autem Altíssimus in ætérnum Dómine.
9 Quóniam ecce inimíci tui Dómine, quóniam ecce inimíci tui períbunt: * et dispergéntur omnes, qui operántur iniquitátem.
10 Et exaltábitur sicut unicórnis cornu meum: * et senéctus mea in misericórdia úberi.
11 Et despéxit óculus meus inimícos meos: * et in insurgéntibus in me malignántibus aúdiet auris mea.
12 Justus, ut palma florébit: * sicut cedrus Líbani multiplicábitur.
13 Plantáti in domo Dómini, * in átriis domus Dei nostri florébunt.
14 Adhuc multiplicabúntur in senécta úberi: * et bene patiéntes erunt, ut annúntient:
15 Quóniam rectus Dóminus Deus noster: * et non est iníquitas in eo.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
It is good to give praise to the Lord: * and to sing to thy name, O most High.
2 To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, * and thy truth in the night:
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, * upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp.
4 For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: * and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.
5 O Lord, how great are thy works! * thy thoughts are exceeding deep.
6 The senseless man shall not know: * nor will the fool understand these things.
7 When the wicked shall spring up as grass: * and all the workers of iniquity shall appear:
8 That they may perish for ever and ever: * But thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore.
9 For behold thy enemies, O Lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: * and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: * and my old age in plentiful mercy.
11 My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: * and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me.
12 The just shall flourish like the palm tree: * he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus.
13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord * shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God.
14 They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: * and shall be well treated,
15 That they may shew, That the Lord our God is righteous, * and there is no iniquity 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 100.
Misericórdiam, et judícium * cantábo tibi Dómine:
2 Psallam, et intélligam in via immaculáta, * quando vénies ad me.
3 Perambulábam in innocéntia cordis mei, * in médio domus meæ.
4 Non proponébam ante óculos meos rem injústam: * faciéntes prævaricatiónes odívi.
5 Non adhǽsit mihi cor pravum: * declinántem a me malígnum non cognoscébam.
6 Detrahéntem secréto próximo suo, * hunc persequébar.
7 Supérbo óculo, et insatiábili corde, * cum hoc non edébam.
8 Oculi mei ad fidéles terræ ut sédeant mecum: * ámbulans in via immaculáta, hic mihi ministrábat.
9 Non habitábit in médio domus meæ qui facit supérbiam: * qui lóquitur iníqua, non diréxit in conspéctu oculórum meórum.
10 In matutíno interficiébam omnes peccatóres terræ: * ut dispérderem de civitáte Dómini omnes operántes iniquitátem.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Mercy and judgment I will sing to thee, O Lord: * I will sing,
2 And I will understand in the unspotted way, * when thou shalt come to me.
3 I walked in the innocence of my heart, * in the midst of my house.
4 I did not set before my eyes any unjust thing: * I hated the workers of iniquities.
5 The perverse heart did not cleave to me: * and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.
6 The man that in private detracted his neighbour, * him did I persecute.
7 With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, * I would not eat.
8 My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: * the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.
9 He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: * he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.
10 In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: * that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city 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.
Bonum est confitéri Dómino.
It is good to praise to the Lord.
Clamor meus.
Let my cry.
Psalmus 101.
Dómine exaúdi oratiónem meam: * et clamor meus ad te véniat.
2 Non avértas fáciem tuam a me: * in quacúmque die tríbulor, inclína ad me aurem tuam.
3 In quacúmque die invocávero te, * velóciter exaúdi me.
4 Quia defecérunt sicut fumus dies mei: * et ossa mea sicut crémium aruérunt.
5 Percússus sum ut fœnum, et áruit cor meum: * quia oblítus sum comédere panem meum.
6 A voce gémitus mei * adhǽsit os meum carni meæ.
7 Símilis factus sum pellicáno solitúdinis: * factus sum sicut nyctícorax in domicílio.
8 Vigilávi, * et factus sum sicut passer solitárius in tecto.
9 Tota die exprobrábant mihi inimíci mei: * et qui laudábant me, advérsum me jurábant.
10 Quia cínerem tamquam panem manducábam, * et potum meum cum fletu miscébam.
11 A fácie iræ et indignatiónis tuæ: * quia élevans allisísti me.
12 Dies mei sicut umbra declinavérunt: * et ego sicut fœnum árui.
13 Tu autem Dómine in ætérnum pérmanes: * et memoriále tuum in generatiónem et generatiónem.
14 Tu exsúrgens miseréberis Sion: * quia tempus miseréndi ejus, quia venit tempus.
15 Quóniam placuérunt servis tuis lápides ejus: * et terræ ejus miserebúntur.
16 Et timébunt Gentes nomen tuum Dómine, * et omnes reges terræ glóriam tuam.
17 Quia ædificávit Dóminus Sion: * et vidébitur in glória sua.
18 Respéxit in oratiónem humílium: * et non sprevit precem eórum.
19 Scribántur hæc in generatióne áltera: * et pópulus, qui creábitur, laudábit Dóminum:
20 Quia prospéxit de excélso sancto suo: * Dóminus de cœlo in terram aspéxit:
21 Ut audíret gémitus compeditórum: * ut sólveret fílios interemptórum:
22 Ut annúntient in Sion nomen Dómini: * et laudem ejus in Jerúsalem.
23 In conveniéndo pópulos in unum, * et reges ut sérviant Dómino.
24 Respóndit ei in via virtútis suæ: * Paucitátem diérum meórum núntia mihi.
25 Ne révoces me in dimídio diérum meórum: * in generatiónem et generatiónem anni tui.
26 Inítio tu Dómine terram fundásti: * et ópera mánuum tuárum sunt cœli.
27 Ipsi períbunt, tu autem pérmanes: * et omnes sicut vestiméntum veteráscent.
28 Et sicut opertórium mutábis eos, et mutabúntur: * tu autem idem ipse es, et anni tui non defícient.
29 Fílii servórum tuórum habitábunt: * et semen eórum in sǽculum dirigétur.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Hear, O Lord, my prayer: * and let my cry come to thee.
2 Turn not away thy face from me: * in the day when I am in trouble, incline thy ear to me.
3 In what day soever I shall call upon thee, * hear me speedily.
4 For my days are vanished like smoke: * and my bones are grown dry like fuel for the fire.
5 I am smitten as grass, and my heart is withered: * because I forgot to eat my bread.
6 Through the voice of my groaning, * my bone hath cleaved to my flesh.
7 I am become like to a pelican of the wilderness: * I am like a night raven in the house.
8 I have watched, * and am become as a sparrow all alone on the housetop.
9 All the day long my enemies reproached me: * and they that praised me did swear against me.
10 For I did eat ashes like bread, * and mingled my drink with weeping.
11 Because of thy anger and indignation: * for having lifted me up thou hast thrown me down.
12 My days have declined like a shadow, * and I am withered like grass.
13 But thou, O Lord, endurest for ever: * and thy memorial to all generations.
14 Thou shalt arise and have mercy on Sion: * for it is time to have mercy on it, for the time is come.
15 For the stones thereof have pleased thy servants: * and they shall have pity on the earth thereof.
16 And the Gentiles shall fear thy name, O Lord, * and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
17 For the Lord hath built up Sion: * and he shall be seen in his glory.
18 He hath had regard to the prayer of the humble: * and he hath not despised their petition.
19 Let these things be written unto another generation: * and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord:
20 Because he hath looked forth from his high sanctuary: * from heaven the Lord hath looked upon the earth.
21 That he might hear the groans of them that are in fetters: * that he might release the children of the slain:
22 That they may declare the name of the Lord in Sion: * and his praise in Jerusalem;
23 When the people assemble together, * and kings, to serve the Lord.
24 He answered him in the way of his strength: * Declare unto me the fewness of my days.
25 Call me not away in the midst of my days: * thy years are unto generation and generation.
26 In the beginning, O Lord, thou foundedst the earth: * and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
27 They shall perish but thou remainest: * and all of them shall grow old like a garment:
28 And as a vesture thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed. * But thou art always the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.
29 The children of thy servants shall continue: * and their seed shall be directed 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.
Psalmus 102.
Bénedic ánima mea Dómino: * et ómnia, quæ intra me sunt, nómini sancto ejus.
2 Bénedic ánima mea Dómino: * et noli oblivísci omnes retributiónes ejus.
3 Qui propitiátur ómnibus iniquitátibus tuis: * qui sanat omnes infirmitátes tuas.
4 Qui rédimit de intéritu vitam tuam: * qui corónat te in misericórdia et miseratiónibus.
5 Qui replet in bonis desidérium tuum: * renovábitur ut áquilæ juvéntus tua:
6 Fáciens misericórdias Dóminus: * et judícium ómnibus injúriam patiéntibus.
7 Notas fecit vias suas Móysi, * fíliis Israël voluntátes suas.
8 Miserátor, et miséricors Dóminus: * longánimis, et multum miséricors.
9 Non in perpétuum irascétur: * neque in ætérnum comminábitur.
10 Non secúndum peccáta nostra fecit nobis: * neque secúndum iniquitátes nostras retríbuit nobis.
11 Quóniam secúndum altitúdinem cœli a terra: * corroborávit misericórdiam suam super timéntes se.
12 Quantum distat ortus ab occidénte: * longe fecit a nobis iniquitátes nostras.
13 Quómodo miserétur pater filiórum, misértus est Dóminus timéntibus se: * quóniam ipse cognóvit figméntum nostrum.
14 Recordátus est quóniam pulvis sumus: * homo, sicut fœnum dies ejus, tamquam flos agri sic efflorébit.
15 Quóniam spíritus pertransíbit in illo, et non subsístet: * et non cognóscet ámplius locum suum.
16 Misericórdia autem Dómini ab ætérno, * et usque in ætérnum super timéntes eum.
17 Et justítia illíus in fílios filiórum, * his qui servant testaméntum ejus:
18 Et mémores sunt mandatórum ipsíus, * ad faciéndum ea.
19 Dóminus in cœlo parávit sedem suam: * et regnum ipsíus ómnibus dominábitur.
20 Benedícite Dómino omnes Angeli ejus: * poténtes virtúte, faciéntes verbum illíus, ad audiéndam vocem sermónum ejus.
21 Benedícite Dómino omnes virtútes ejus: * minístri ejus, qui fácitis voluntátem ejus.
22 Benedícite Dómino ómnia ópera ejus: * in omni loco dominatiónis ejus, bénedic ánima mea Dómino.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Bless the Lord, O my soul: * and let all that is within me bless his holy name.
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, * and never forget all he hath done for thee.
3 Who forgiveth all thy iniquities: * who healeth all thy diseases.
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: * who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion.
5 Who satisfieth thy desire with good things: * thy youth shall be renewed like the eagle's.
6 The Lord doth mercies, * and judgment for all that suffer wrong.
7 He hath made his ways known to Moses: * his wills to the children of Israel.
8 The Lord is compassionate and merciful: * longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.
9 He will not always be angry: * nor will he threaten for ever.
10 He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: * nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: * he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, * so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.
13 As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him: * For he knoweth our frame.
14 He remembereth that we are dust: * Man's days are as grass, as the flower of the field so shall he flourish.
15 For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: * and he shall know his place no more.
16 But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity * and unto eternity upon them that fear him:
17 And his justice unto children's children, * to such as keep his covenant,
18 And are mindful of his commandments * to do them.
19 The Lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: * and his kingdom shall rule over all.
20 Bless the Lord, all ye his angels: * you that are mighty in strength, and execute his word, hearkening to the voice of his orders.
21 Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: * you ministers of his that do his will.
22 Bless the Lord, all his works: * in every place of his dominion, O my soul, bless thou 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.
Clamor meus ad te véniat Deus.
Let my cry come unto Thee, O God.
Bénedic.
Bless.
Psalmus 103.
Bénedic ánima mea Dómino: * Dómine Deus meus magnificátus es veheménter.
2 Confessiónem, et decórem induísti: * amíctus lúmine sicut vestiménto:
3 Exténdens cœlum sicut pellem * qui tegis aquis superióra ejus.
4 Qui ponis nubem ascénsum tuum: * qui ámbulas super pennas ventórum.
5 Qui facis Angelos tuos, spíritus: * et minístros tuos ignem uréntem.
6 Qui fundásti terram super stabilitátem suam: * non inclinábitur in sǽculum sǽculi.
7 Abýssus, sicut vestiméntum amíctus ejus: * super montes stabunt aquæ.
8 Ab increpatióne tua fúgient: * a voce tonítrui tui formidábunt.
9 Ascéndunt montes: et descéndunt campi * in locum, quem fundásti eis.
10 Términum posuísti, quem non transgrediéntur: * neque converténtur operíre terram.
11 Qui emíttis fontes in convállibus: * inter médium móntium pertransíbunt aquæ.
12 Potábunt omnes béstiæ agri: * exspectábunt ónagri in siti sua.
13 Super ea vólucres cœli habitábunt: * de médio petrárum dabunt voces.
14 Rigans montes de superióribus suis: * de fructu óperum tuórum satiábitur terra:
15 Prodúcens fœnum juméntis, * et herbam servitúti hóminum:
16 Ut edúcas panem de terra: * et vinum lætíficet cor hóminis:
17 Ut exhílaret fáciem in óleo: * et panis cor hóminis confírmet.
18 Saturabúntur ligna campi, et cedri Líbani, quas plantávit: * illic pásseres nidificábunt.
19 Heródii domus dux est eórum: * montes excélsi cervis: petra refúgium herináciis.
20 Fecit lunam in témpora: * sol cognóvit occásum suum.
21 Posuísti ténebras, et facta est nox: * in ipsa pertransíbunt omnes béstiæ silvæ.
22 Cátuli leónum rugiéntes, ut rápiant, * et quærant a Deo escam sibi.
23 Ortus est sol, et congregáti sunt: * et in cubílibus suis collocabúntur.
24 Exíbit homo ad opus suum: * et ad operatiónem suam usque ad vésperum.
25 Quam magnificáta sunt ópera tua Dómine! * ómnia in sapiéntia fecísti: impléta est terra possessióne tua.
26 Hoc mare magnum, et spatiósum mánibus: * illic reptília, quorum non est númerus.
27 Animália pusílla cum magnis: * illic naves pertransíbunt.
28 Draco iste, quem formásti ad illudéndum ei: * ómnia a te exspéctant ut des illis escam in témpore.
29 Dante te illis, cólligent: * aperiénte te manum tuam, ómnia implebúntur bonitáte.
30 Averténte autem te fáciem, turbabúntur: * aúferes spíritum eórum, et defícient, et in púlverem suum reverténtur.
31 Emíttes spíritum tuum, et creabúntur: * et renovábis fáciem terræ.
32 Sit glória Dómini in sǽculum: * lætábitur Dóminus in opéribus suis.
33 Qui réspicit terram, et facit eam trémere: * qui tangit montes, et fúmigant.
34 Cantábo Dómino in vita mea: * psallam Deo meo, quámdiu sum.
35 Jucúndum sit ei elóquium meum: * ego vero delectábor in Dómino.
36 Defíciant peccatóres a terra, et iníqui ita ut non sint: * bénedic ánima mea Dómino.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Bless the Lord, O my soul: * O Lord my God, thou art exceedingly great.
2 Thou hast put on praise and beauty: * And art clothed with light as with a garment.
3 Who stretchest out the heaven like a pavilion: * Who coverest the higher rooms thereof with water.
4 Who makest the clouds thy chariot: * who walkest upon the wings of the winds.
5 Who makest thy angels spirits: * and thy ministers a burning fire.
6 Who hast founded the earth upon its own bases: * it shall not be moved for ever and ever.
7 The deep like a garment is its clothing: * above the mountains shall the waters stand.
8 At thy rebuke they shall flee: * at the voice of thy thunder they shall fear.
9 The mountains ascend, and the plains descend * into the place which thou hast founded for them.
10 Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass over; * neither shall they return to cover the earth.
11 Thou sendest forth springs in the vales: * between the midst of the hills the waters shall pass.
12 All the beasts of the field shall drink: * the wild asses shall expect in their thirst.
13 Over them the birds of the air shall dwell: * from the midst of the rocks they shall give forth their voices.
14 Thou waterest the hills from thy upper rooms: * the earth shall be filled with the fruit of thy works:
15 Bringing forth grass for cattle, * and herb for the service of men.
16 That thou mayst bring bread out of the earth: * And that wine may cheer the heart of man.
17 That he may make the face cheerful with oil: * and that bread may strengthen man's heart.
18 The trees of the field shall be filled, and the cedars of Libanus which he hath planted: * There the sparrows shall make their nests.
19 The highest of them is the house of the heron. * The high hills are a refuge for the harts, the rock for the irchins.
20 He hath made the moon for seasons: * the sun knoweth his going down.
21 Thou hast appointed darkness, and it is night: * in it shall all the beasts of the woods go about:
22 The young lions roaring after their prey, * and seeking their meat from God.
23 The sun ariseth, and they are gathered together: * and they shall lie down in their dens.
24 Man shall go forth to his work, * and to his labour until the evening.
25 How great are thy works, O Lord! * thou hast made all things in wisdom: the earth is filled with thy riches.
26 So is this great sea, which stretcheth wide its arms: * there are creeping things without number:
27 Creatures little and great. * There the ships shall go.
28 This sea dragon which thou hast formed to play therein. * All expect of thee that thou give them food in season.
29 What thou givest to them they shall gather up: * when thou openest thy hand, they shall all be filled with good.
30 But if thou turnest away thy face, they shall be troubled: * thou shalt take away their breath, and they shall fail, and shall return to their dust.
31 Thou shalt send forth thy spirit, and they shall be created: * and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
32 May the glory of the Lord endure for ever: * the Lord shall rejoice in his works.
33 He looketh upon the earth, and maketh it tremble: * he toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
34 I will sing to the Lord as long as I live: * I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
35 Let my speech be acceptable to him: * but I will take delight in the Lord.
36 Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and the unjust, so that they be no more: * O my soul, bless thou 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 104.
Confitémini Dómino, et invocáte nomen ejus: * annuntiáte inter Gentes ópera ejus.
2 Cantáte ei, et psállite ei: * narráte ómnia mirabília ejus.
3 Laudámini in nómine sancto ejus: * lætétur cor quæréntium Dóminum.
4 Quǽrite Dóminum, et confirmámini: * quǽrite fáciem ejus semper.
5 Mementóte mirabílium ejus, quæ fecit: * prodígia ejus, et judícia oris ejus.
6 Semen Abraham, servi ejus: * fílii Jacob, elécti ejus.
7 Ipse Dóminus Deus noster: * in univérsa terra judícia ejus.
8 Memor fuit in sǽculum testaménti sui: * verbi, quod mandávit in mille generatiónes:
9 Quod dispósuit ad Abraham: * et juraménti sui ad Isaac:
10 Et státuit illud Jacob in præcéptum: * et Israël in testaméntum ætérnum:
11 Dicens: tibi dabo terram Chánaan, * funículum hæreditátis vestræ.
12 Cum essent número brevi, * paucíssimi et íncolæ ejus.
13 Et pertransiérunt de gente in gentem, * et de regno ad pópulum álterum.
14 Non relíquit hóminem nocére eis: * et corrípuit pro eis reges.
15 Nolíte tángere christos meos: * et in prophétis meis nolíte malignári.
16 Et vocávit famem super terram: * et omne firmaméntum panis contrívit.
17 Misit ante eos virum: * in servum venúmdatus est Joseph.
18 Humiliavérunt in compédibus pedes ejus, ferrum pertránsiit ánimam ejus, * donec veníret verbum ejus.
19 Elóquium Dómini inflammávit eum: * misit rex, et solvit eum; princeps populórum, et dimísit eum.
20 Constítuit eum dóminum domus suæ: * et príncipem omnis possessiónis suæ:
21 Ut erudíret príncipes ejus sicut semetípsum: * et senes ejus prudéntiam docéret.
22 Et intrávit Israël in Ægýptum: * et Jacob áccola fuit in terra Cham.
23 Et auxit pópulum suum veheménter: * et firmávit eum super inimícos ejus.
24 Convértit cor eórum ut odírent pópulum ejus: * et dolum fácerent in servos ejus.
25 Misit Móysen servum suum: * Aaron, quem elégit ipsum.
26 Pósuit in eis verba signórum suórum, * et prodigiórum in terra Cham.
27 Misit ténebras, et obscurávit: * et non exacerbávit sermónes suos.
28 Convértit aquas eórum in sánguinem: * et occídit pisces eórum.
29 Edidit terra eórum ranas * in penetrálibus regum ipsórum.
30 Dixit, et venit cœnomyía: * et cínifes in ómnibus fínibus eórum.
31 Pósuit plúvias eórum grándinem: * ignem comburéntem in terra ipsórum.
32 Et percússit víneas eórum, et ficúlneas eórum: * et contrívit lignum fínium eórum.
33 Dixit, et venit locústa, et bruchus, * cujus non erat númerus.
34 Et comédit omne fœnum in terra eórum: * et comédit omnem fructum terræ eórum.
35 Et percússit omne primogénitum in terra eórum: * primítias omnis labóris eórum.
36 Et edúxit eos cum argénto et auro: * et non erat in tríbubus eórum infírmus.
37 Lætáta est Ægýptus in profectióne eórum: * quia incúbuit timor eórum super eos.
38 Expándit nubem in protectiónem eórum, * et ignem ut lucéret eis per noctem.
39 Petiérunt, et venit cotúrnix: * et pane cœli saturávit eos.
40 Dirúpit petram, et fluxérunt aquæ: * abiérunt in sicco flúmina;
41 Quóniam memor fuit verbi sancti sui, * quod hábuit ad Abraham púerum suum.
42 Et edúxit pópulum suum in exsultatióne, * et eléctos suos in lætítia.
43 Et dedit illis regiónes Géntium: * et labóres populórum possedérunt:
44 Ut custódiant justificatiónes ejus, * et legem ejus requírant.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Give glory to the Lord, and call upon his name: * declare his deeds among the Gentiles.
2 Sing to him, yea sing praises to him: * relate all his wondrous works.
3 Glory ye in his holy name: * let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
4 Seek ye the Lord, and be strengthened: * seek his face evermore.
5 Remember his marvellous works which he hath done; * his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth.
6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant; * ye sons of Jacob his chosen.
7 He is the Lord our God: * his judgments are in all the earth.
8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever: * the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
9 Which he made to Abraham; * and his oath to Isaac:
10 And he appointed the same to Jacob for a law, * and to Israel for an everlasting testament:
11 Saying: To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, * the lot of your inheritance.
12 When they were but a small number: * yea very few, and sojourners therein:
13 And they passed from nation to nation, * and from one kingdom to another people.
14 He suffered no man to hurt them: * and he reproved kings for their sakes.
15 Touch ye not my anointed: * and do no evil to my prophets.
16 And he called a famine upon the land: * and he broke in pieces all the support of bread.
17 He sent a man before them: * Joseph, who was sold for a slave.
18 They humbled his feet in fetters: the iron pierced his soul, * until his word came.
19 The word of the Lord inflamed him. * The king sent, and he released him: the ruler of the people, and he set him at liberty.
20 He made him master of his house, * and ruler of all his possession.
21 That he might instruct his princes as himself, * and teach his ancients wisdom.
22 And Israel went into Egypt: * and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Cham.
23 And he increased his people exceedingly: * and strengthened them over their enemies,
24 He turned their heart to hate his people: * and to deal deceitfully with his servants.
25 He sent Moses his servant: * Aaron the man whom he had chosen.
26 He gave them power to shew his signs, * and his wonders in the land of Cham.
27 He sent darkness, and made it obscure: * and grieved not his words.
28 He turned their waters into blood, * and destroyed their fish.
29 Their land brought forth frogs, * in the inner chambers of their kings.
30 He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies * and sciniphs in all their coasts.
31 He gave them hail for rain, * a burning fire in the land.
32 And he destroyed their vineyards and their fig trees: * and he broke in pieces the trees of their coasts.
33 He spoke, and the locust came, and the bruchus, * of which there was no number.
34 And they devoured all the grass in their land, * and consumed all the fruit of their ground.
35 And he slew all the firstborn in their land: * the firstfruits of all their labour.
36 And he brought them out with silver and gold: * and there was not among their tribes one that was feeble.
37 Egypt was glad when they departed: * for the fear of them lay upon them.
38 He spread a cloud for their protection, * and fire to give them light in the night.
39 They asked, and the quail came: * and he filled them with the bread of heaven.
40 He opened the rock, and waters flowed: * rivers ran down in the dry land.
41 Because he remembered his holy word, * which he had spoken to his servant Abraham.
42 And he brought forth his people with joy, * and his chosen with gladness.
43 And he gave them the lands of the Gentiles: * and they possessed the labours of the people:
44 That they might observe his justifications, * and seek after his law.
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.
Bénedic ánima mea Dómino.
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
Vísita nos.
Visit us.
Psalmus 105.
Confitémini Dómino quóniam bonus: * quóniam in sǽculum misericórdia ejus.
2 Quis loquétur poténtias Dómini, * audítas fáciet omnes laudes ejus?
3 Beáti, qui custódiunt judícium, * et fáciunt justítiam in omni témpore.
4 Meménto nostri Dómine in beneplácito pópuli tui: * vísita nos in salutári tuo:
5 Ad vidéndum in bonitáte electórum tuórum, ad lætándum in lætítia gentis tuæ: * ut laudéris cum hæreditáte tua.
6 Peccávimus cum pátribus nostris: * injúste égimus, iniquitátem fécimus.
7 Patres nostri in Ægýpto non intellexérunt mirabília tua: * non fuérunt mémores multitúdinis misericórdiæ tuæ.
8 Et irritavérunt ascendéntes in mare, * Mare rubrum.
9 Et salvávit eos propter nomen suum: * ut notam fáceret poténtiam suam.
10 Et incrépuit Mare rubrum, et exsiccátum est: * et dedúxit eos in abýssis sicut in desérto.
11 Et salvávit eos de manu odiéntium: * et redémit eos de manu inimíci.
12 Et opéruit aqua tribulántes eos: * unus ex eis non remánsit.
13 Et credidérunt verbis ejus: * et laudavérunt laudem ejus.
14 Cito fecérunt, oblíti sunt óperum ejus: * et non sustinuérunt consílium ejus.
15 Et concupiérunt concupiscéntiam in desérto: * et tentavérunt Deum in inaquóso.
16 Et dedit eis petitiónem ipsórum: * et misit saturitátem in ánimas eórum.
17 Et irritavérunt Móysen in castris: * Aaron sanctum Dómini.
18 Apérta est terra, et deglutívit Dathan: * et opéruit super congregatiónem Abíron.
19 Et exársit ignis in synagóga eórum: * flamma combússit peccatóres.
20 Et fecérunt vítulum in Horeb: * et adoravérunt scúlptile.
21 Et mutavérunt glóriam suam * in similitúdinem vítuli comedéntis fœnum.
22 Oblíti sunt Deum, qui salvávit eos, * qui fecit magnália in Ægýpto, mirabília in terra Cham: terribília in Mari rubro.
23 Et dixit ut dispérderet eos: * si non Móyses eléctus ejus stetísset in confractióne in conspéctu ejus:
24 Ut avérteret iram ejus ne dispérderet eos: * et pro níhilo habuérunt terram desiderábilem:
25 Non credidérunt verbo ejus, et murmuravérunt in tabernáculis suis: * non exaudiérunt vocem Dómini.
26 Et elevávit manum suam super eos: * ut prostérneret eos in desérto:
27 Et ut dejíceret semen eórum in natiónibus: * et dispérgeret eos in regiónibus.
28 Et initiáti sunt Beélphegor: * et comedérunt sacrifícia mortuórum.
29 Et irritavérunt eum in adinventiónibus suis: * et multiplicáta est in eis ruína.
30 Et stetit Phínees, et placávit: * et cessávit quassátio.
31 Et reputátum est ei in justítiam, * in generatiónem et generatiónem usque in sempitérnum.
32 Et irritavérunt eum ad Aquas contradictiónis: * et vexátus est Móyses propter eos: quia exacerbavérunt spíritum ejus.
33 Et distínxit in lábiis suis: * non disperdidérunt Gentes, quas dixit Dóminus illis.
34 Et commísti sunt inter Gentes, et didicérunt ópera eórum: et serviérunt sculptílibus eórum: * et factum est illis in scándalum.
35 Et immolavérunt fílios suos, * et fílias suas dæmóniis.
36 Et effudérunt sánguinem innocéntem: * sánguinem filiórum suórum et filiárum suárum, quas sacrificavérunt sculptílibus Chánaan.
37 Et infécta est terra in sanguínibus, et contamináta est in opéribus eórum: * et fornicáti sunt in adinventiónibus suis.
38 Et irátus est furóre Dóminus in pópulum suum: * et abominátus est hæreditátem suam.
39 Et trádidit eos in manus Géntium: * et domináti sunt eórum qui odérunt eos.
40 Et tribulavérunt eos inimíci eórum, et humiliáti sunt sub mánibus eórum: * sæpe liberávit eos.
41 Ipsi autem exacerbavérunt eum in consílio suo: * et humiliáti sunt in iniquitátibus suis.
42 Et vidit cum tribularéntur: * et audívit oratiónem eórum.
43 Et memor fuit testaménti sui: * et pœnítuit eum secúndum multitúdinem misericórdiæ suæ.
44 Et dedit eos in misericórdias * in conspéctu ómnium qui céperant eos.
45 Salvos nos fac Dómine Deus noster: * et cóngrega nos de natiónibus:
46 Ut confiteámur nómini sancto tuo: * et gloriémur in laude tua.
47 Benedíctus Dóminus Deus Israël a sǽculo et usque in sǽculum: * et dicet omnis pópulus: Fiat, fiat.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: * for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Who shall declare the powers of the Lord? * who shall set forth all his praises?
3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, * and do justice at all times.
4 Remember us, O Lord, in the favour of thy people: * visit us with thy salvation.
5 That we may see the good of thy chosen, that we may rejoice in the joy of thy nation: * that thou mayst be praised with thy inheritance.
6 We have sinned with our fathers: * we have acted unjustly, we have wrought iniquity.
7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt: * they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies:
8 And they provoked to wrath going up to the sea, * even the Red Sea.
9 And he saved them for his own name's sake: * that he might make his power known.
10 And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up: * and he led them through the depths, as in a wilderness.
11 And he saved them from the hand of them that hated them: * and he redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
12 And the water covered them that afflicted them: * there was not one of them left.
13 And they believed his words: * and they sang his praises.
14 They had quickly done, they forgot his works: * and they waited not for his counsels.
15 And they coveted their desire in the desert: * and they tempted God in the place without water.
16 And he gave them their request: * and sent fulness into their souls.
17 And they provoked Moses in the camp, * Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
18 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan: * and covered the congregation of Abiron.
19 And a fire was kindled in their congregation: * the flame burned the wicked.
20 They made also a calf in Horeb: * and they adored the graven thing.
21 And they changed their glory * into the likeness of a calf that eateth grass.
22 They forgot God, who saved them, * who had done great things in Egypt, wondrous works in the land of Cham: terrible things in the Red Sea.
23 And he said that he would destroy them: * had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach:
24 To turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them. * And they set at nought the desirable land.
25 They believed not his word, and they murmured in their tents: * they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord.
26 And he lifted up his hand over them: * to overthrow them in the desert;
27 And to cast down their seed among the nations, * and to scatter them in the countries.
28 They also were initiated to Beelphegor: * and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29 And they provoked him with their inventions: * and destruction was multiplied among them.
30 Then Phinees stood up, and pacified him: * and the slaughter ceased.
31 And it was reputed to him unto justice, * to generation and generation for evermore.
32 They provoked him also at the waters of contradiction: * and Moses was afflicted for their sakes: Because they exasperated his spirit.
33 And he distinguished with his lips. * They did not destroy the nations of which the Lord spoke unto them.
34 And they were mingled among the heathens, and learned their works: And served their idols, * and it became a stumblingblock to them.
35 And they sacrificed their sons, * and their daughters to devils.
36 And they shed innocent blood: * the blood of their sons and of their daughters which they sacrificed to the idols of Chanaan.
37 And the land was polluted with blood, and was defiled with their works: * and they went aside after their own inventions.
38 And the Lord was exceedingly angry with his people: * and he abhorred his inheritance.
39 And he delivered them into the hands of the nations: * and they that hated them had dominion over them.
40 And their enemies afflicted them: and they were humbled under their hands: * Many times did he deliver them.
41 But they provoked him with their counsel: * and they were brought low by their iniquities.
42 And he saw when they were in tribulation: * and he heard their prayer.
43 And he was mindful of his covenant: * and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
44 And he gave them unto mercies, * in the sight of all those that had made them captives.
45 Save us, O Lord, our God: * and gather us from among nations:
46 That we may give thanks to thy holy name, * and may glory in thy praise.
47 Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting: * and let all the people say: 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 106.
Confitémini Dómino quóniam bonus: * quóniam in sǽculum misericórdia ejus.
2 Dicant qui redémpti sunt a Dómino, quos redémit de manu inimíci: * et de regiónibus congregávit eos:
3 A solis ortu, et occásu: * ab aquilóne, et mari.
4 Erravérunt in solitúdine in inaquóso: * viam civitátis habitáculi non invenérunt.
5 Esuriéntes, et sitiéntes: * ánima eórum in ipsis defécit.
6 Et clamavérunt ad Dóminum cum tribularéntur: * et de necessitátibus eórum erípuit eos.
7 Et dedúxit eos in viam rectam: * ut irent in civitátem habitatiónis.
8 Confiteántur Dómino misericórdiæ ejus: * et mirabília ejus fíliis hóminum.
9 Quia satiávit ánimam inánem: * et ánimam esuriéntem satiávit bonis.
10 Sedéntes in ténebris, et umbra mortis: * vinctos in mendicitáte et ferro.
11 Quia exacerbavérunt elóquia Dei: * et consílium Altíssimi irritavérunt.
12 Et humiliátum est in labóribus cor eórum: * infirmáti sunt, nec fuit qui adjuváret.
13 Et clamavérunt ad Dóminum cum tribularéntur: * et de necessitátibus eórum liberávit eos.
14 Et edúxit eos de ténebris, et umbra mortis: * et víncula eórum disrúpit.
15 Confiteántur Dómino misericórdiæ ejus: * et mirabília ejus fíliis hóminum.
16 Quia contrívit portas ǽreas: * et vectes férreos confrégit.
17 Suscépit eos de via iniquitátis eórum: * propter injustítias enim suas humiliáti sunt.
18 Omnem escam abomináta est ánima eórum: * et appropinquavérunt usque ad portas mortis.
19 Et clamavérunt ad Dóminum cum tribularéntur: * et de necessitátibus eórum liberávit eos.
20 Misit verbum suum, et sanávit eos: * et erípuit eos de interitiónibus eórum.
21 Confiteántur Dómino misericórdiæ ejus: * et mirabília ejus fíliis hóminum.
22 Et sacríficent sacrifícium laudis: * et annúntient ópera ejus in exsultatióne.
23 Qui descéndunt mare in návibus, * faciéntes operatiónem in aquis multis.
24 Ipsi vidérunt ópera Dómini, * et mirabília ejus in profúndo.
25 Dixit, et stetit spíritus procéllæ: * et exaltáti sunt fluctus ejus.
26 Ascéndunt usque ad cœlos, et descéndunt usque ad abýssos: * ánima eórum in malis tabescébat.
27 Turbáti sunt, et moti sunt sicut ébrius: * et omnis sapiéntia eórum devoráta est.
28 Et clamavérunt ad Dóminum cum tribularéntur, * et de necessitátibus eórum edúxit eos.
29 Et státuit procéllam ejus in auram: * et siluérunt fluctus ejus.
30 Et lætáti sunt quia siluérunt: * et dedúxit eos in portum voluntátis eórum.
31 Confiteántur Dómino misericórdiæ ejus: * et mirabília ejus fíliis hóminum.
32 Et exáltent eum in ecclésia plebis: * et in cáthedra seniórum laudent eum.
33 Pósuit flúmina in desértum: * et éxitus aquárum in sitim.
34 Terram fructíferam in salsúginem, * a malítia inhabitántium in ea.
35 Pósuit desértum in stagna aquárum: * et terram sine aqua in éxitus aquárum.
36 Et collocávit illic esuriéntes: * et constituérunt civitátem habitatiónis.
37 Et seminavérunt agros, et plantavérunt víneas: * et fecérunt fructum nativitátis.
38 Et benedíxit eis, et multiplicáti sunt nimis: * et juménta eórum non minorávit.
39 Et pauci facti sunt: * et vexáti sunt a tribulatióne malórum, et dolóre.
40 Effúsa est contémptio super príncipes: * et erráre fecit eos in ínvio, et non in via.
41 Et adjúvit paúperem de inópia: * et pósuit sicut oves famílias.
42 Vidébunt recti, et lætabúntur: * et omnis iníquitas oppilábit os suum.
43 Quis sápiens et custódiet hæc? * et intélliget misericórdias Dómini?
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: * for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let them say so that have been redeemed by the Lord, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy: * and gathered out of the countries.
3 From the rising and the setting of the sun, * from the north and from the sea.
4 They wandered in a wilderness, in a place without water: * they found not the way of a city for their habitation.
5 They were hungry and thirsty: * their soul fainted in them.
6 And they cried to the Lord in their tribulation: * and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7 And he led them into the right way: * that they might go to a city of habitation.
8 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: * and his wonderful works to the children of men.
9 For he hath satisfied the empty soul, * and hath filled the hungry soul with good things.
10 Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death: * bound in want and in iron.
11 Because they had exasperated the words of God: * and provoked the counsel of the most High:
12 And their heart was humbled with labours: * they were weakened, and there was none to help them.
13 Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction: * and he delivered them out of their distresses.
14 And he brought them out of darkness, and the shadow of death; * and broke their bonds in sunder.
15 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, * and his wonderful works to the children of men.
16 Because he hath broken gates of brass, * and burst the iron bars.
17 He took them out of the way of their iniquity: * for they were brought low for their injustices.
18 Their soul abhorred all manner of meat: * and they drew nigh even to the gates of death.
19 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: * and he delivered them out of their distresses.
20 He sent his word, and healed them: * and delivered them from their destructions.
21 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: * and his wonderful works to the children of men.
22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifice of praise: * and declare his works with joy.
23 They that go down to the sea in ships, * doing business in the great waters:
24 These have seen the works of the Lord, * and his wonders in the deep.
25 He said the word, and there arose a storm of wind: * and the waves thereof were lifted up.
26 They mount up to the heavens, and they go down to the depths: * their soul pined away with evils.
27 They were troubled, and reeled like a drunken man; * and all their wisdom was swallowed up.
28 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: * and he brought them out of their distresses.
29 And he turned the storm into a breeze: * and its waves were still.
30 And they rejoiced because they were still: * and he brought them to the haven which they wished for.
31 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, * and his wonderful works to the children of men.
32 And let them exalt him in the church of the people: * and praise him in the chair of the ancients.
33 He hath turned rivers into a wilderness: * and the sources of water into dry ground:
34 A fruitful land into barrenness, * for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
35 He hath turned a wilderness into pools of water, * and a dry land into water springs.
36 And hath placed there the hungry; * and they made a city for their habitation.
37 And they sowed fields, and planted vineyards: * and they yielded fruit of birth.
38 And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly: * and their cattle he suffered not to decrease.
39 Then they were brought to be few: * and they were afflicted through the trouble of evils and sorrow.
40 Contempt was poured forth upon their princes: * and he caused them to wander where there was no passing, and out of the way.
41 And he helped the poor out of poverty: * and made him families like a flock of sheep.
42 The just shall see, and shall rejoice, * and all iniquity shall stop their mouth.
43 Who is wise, and will keep these things: * and will understand the mercies 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.
Vísita nos Dómine in salutári tuo.
Visit us with Thy salvation, O Lord.
Confitébor Dómino.
I will praise the Lord.
Psalmus 107.
Parátum cor meum Deus, parátum cor meum: * cantábo, et psallam in glória mea.
2 Exsúrge glória mea, exsúrge psaltérium, et cíthara: * exsúrgam dilúculo.
3 Confitébor tibi in pópulis Dómine: * et psallam tibi in natiónibus.
4 Quia magna est super cœlos misericórdia tua: * et usque ad nubes véritas tua.
5 Exaltáre super cœlos Deus, et super omnem terram glória tua: * ut liberéntur dilécti tui.
6 Salvum fac déxtera tua, et exaúdi me: * Deus locútus est in sancto suo:
7 Exsultábo, et dívidam Síchimam, * et convállem tabernaculórum dimétiar.
8 Meus est Gálaad, et meus est Manásses: * et Ephraïm suscéptio cápitis mei.
9 Juda rex meus: * Moab lebes spei meæ.
10 In Idumǽam exténdam calceaméntum meum: * mihi alienígenæ amíci facti sunt.
11 Quis dedúcet me in civitátem munítam? * quis dedúcet me usque in Idumǽam?
12 Nonne tu Deus, qui repulísti nos, * et non exíbis Deus in virtútibus nostris?
13 Da nobis auxílium de tribulatióne: * quia vana salus hóminis.
14 In Deo faciémus virtútem: * et ipse ad níhilum dedúcet inimícos nostros.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: * I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory.
2 Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp: * I will arise in the morning early.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: * and I will sing unto thee among the populations.
4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: * and thy truth even unto the clouds.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth: * That thy beloved may be delivered.
6 Save with thy right hand and hear me. * God hath spoken in his holiness.
7 I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem * and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles.
8 Galaad is mine, and Manasses is mine * and Ephraim the protection of my head.
9 Juda is my king: * Moab the pot of my hope.
10 Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: * the aliens are become my friends.
11 Who will bring me into the strong city? * who will lead me into Edom?
12 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? * and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?
13 O grant us help from trouble: * for vain is the help of man.
14 Through God we shall do mightily: * and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
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 108.
Deus laudem meam ne tacúeris: * quia os peccatóris, et os dolósi super me apértum est.
2 Locúti sunt advérsum me lingua dolósa, et sermónibus ódii circumdedérunt me: * et expugnavérunt me gratis.
3 Pro eo ut me dilígerent, detrahébant mihi: * ego autem orábam.
4 Et posuérunt advérsum me mala pro bonis: * et ódium pro dilectióne mea.
5 Constítue super eum peccatórem: * et diábolus stet a dextris ejus.
6 Cum judicátur, éxeat condemnátus: * et orátio ejus fiat in peccátum.
7 Fiant dies ejus pauci: * et episcopátum ejus accípiat alter.
8 Fiant fílii ejus órphani: * et uxor ejus vídua.
9 Nutántes transferántur fílii ejus, et mendícent: * et ejiciántur de habitatiónibus suis.
10 Scrutétur fœnerátor omnem substántiam ejus: * et dirípiant aliéni labóres ejus.
11 Non sit illi adjútor: * nec sit qui misereátur pupíllis ejus.
12 Fiant nati ejus in intéritum: * in generatióne una deleátur nomen ejus.
13 In memóriam rédeat iníquitas patrum ejus in conspéctu Dómini: * et peccátum matris ejus non deleátur.
14 Fiant contra Dóminum semper, et dispéreat de terra memória eórum: * pro eo quod non est recordátus fácere misericórdiam.
15 Et persecútus est hóminem ínopem, et mendícum, * et compúnctum corde mortificáre.
16 Et diléxit maledictiónem, et véniet ei: * et nóluit benedictiónem, et elongábitur ab eo.
17 Et índuit maledictiónem sicut vestiméntum, * et intrávit sicut aqua in interióra ejus, et sicut óleum in óssibus ejus.
18 Fiat ei sicut vestiméntum, quo operítur: * et sicut zona, qua semper præcíngitur.
19 Hoc opus eórum, qui détrahunt mihi apud Dóminum: * et qui loquúntur mala advérsus ánimam meam.
20 Et tu Dómine, Dómine fac mecum propter nomen tuum: * quia suávis est misericórdia tua.
21 Líbera me quia egénus, et pauper ego sum: * et cor meum conturbátum est intra me.
22 Sicut umbra cum declínat, ablátus sum: * et excússus sum sicut locústæ.
23 Génua mea infirmáta sunt a jejúnio: * et caro mea immutáta est propter óleum.
24 Et ego factus sum oppróbrium illis: * vidérunt me, et movérunt cápita sua.
25 Adjuva me Dómine Deus meus: * salvum me fac secúndum misericórdiam tuam.
26 Et sciant quia manus tua hæc: * et tu Dómine fecísti eam.
27 Maledícent illi, et tu benedíces: * qui insúrgunt in me, confundántur: servus autem tuus lætábitur.
28 Induántur qui détrahunt mihi, pudóre: * et operiántur sicut diplóide confusióne sua.
29 Confitébor Dómino nimis in ore meo: * et in médio multórum laudábo eum.
30 Quia ástitit a dextris paúperis, * ut salvam fáceret a persequéntibus ánimam meam.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
O God, be not thou silent in my praise: * for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful man is opened against me.
2 They have spoken against me with deceitful tongues; and they have compassed me about with words of hatred; * and have fought against me without cause.
3 Instead of making me a return of love, they detracted me: * but I gave myself to prayer.
4 And they repaid me evil for good: * and hatred for my love.
5 Set thou the sinner over him: * and may the devil stand at his right hand.
6 When he is judged, may he go out condemned; * and may his prayer be turned to sin.
7 May his days be few: * and his bishopric let another take.
8 May his children be fatherless, * and his wife a widow.
9 Let his children be carried about vagabonds, and beg; * and let them be cast out of their dwellings.
10 May the usurer search all his substance: * and let strangers plunder his labours.
11 May there be none to help him: * nor none to pity his fatherless offspring.
12 May his posterity be cut off; * in one generation may his name be blotted out.
13 May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered in the sight of the Lord: * and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
14 May they be before the Lord continually, and let the memory of them perish from the earth: * because he remembered not to shew mercy,
15 But persecuted the poor man and the beggar; * and the broken in heart, to put him to death.
16 And he loved cursing, and it shall come unto him: * and he would not have blessing, and it shall be far from him.
17 And he put on cursing, like a garment: * and it went in like water into his entrails, and like oil in his bones.
18 May it be unto him like a garment which covereth him; * and like a girdle with which he is girded continually.
19 This is the work of them who detract me before the Lord; * and who speak evils against my soul.
20 But thou, O Lord, do with me for thy name's sake: * because thy mercy is sweet. Do thou deliver me,
21 for I am poor and needy, * and my heart is troubled within me.
22 I am taken away like the shadow when it declineth: * and I am shaken off as locusts.
23 My knees are weakened through fasting: * and my flesh is changed for oil.
24 And I am become a reproach to them: * they saw me and they shaked their heads,
25 Help me, O Lord my God; * save me according to thy mercy.
26 And let them know that this is thy hand: * and that thou, O Lord, hast done it.
27 They will curse and thou will bless: * let them that rise up against me be confounded: but thy servant shall rejoice.
28 Let them that detract me be clothed with shame: * and let them be covered with their confusion as with a double cloak.
29 I will give great thanks to the Lord with my mouth: * and in the midst of many I will praise him.
30 Because he hath stood at the right hand of the poor, * to save my soul from persecutors.
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.
Confitébor Dómino nimis in ore meo.
I will praise the Lord greatly with my mouth.

De libro Esther.
Lesson from the book of Esther
Esth. 7.
Intrávit ítaque rex et Aman, ut bíberent cum regína. Dixítque ei rex étiam secúnda die, postquam vino incalúerat: Quæ est petítio tua Esther ut detur tibi? et quid vis fíeri? étiam si dimídiam partem regni mei petíeris, impetrábis. Ad quem illa respóndit: Si invéni grátiam in óculis tuis, o rex, et si tibi placet, dona mihi ánimam meam pro qua rogo, et pópulum meum, pro quo óbsecro. Tráditi enim sumus ego et pópulus meus, ut conterámur, jugulémur, et pereámus. Atque útinam in servos et fámulas venderémur: esset tolerábile malum, et gemens tacérem: nunc autem hostis noster est, cujus crudélitas redúndat in regem.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
So the king and Aman went in, to drink with the queen. And the king said to her again the second day, after he was warm with wine: What is thy petition, Esther, that it may be granted thee? and what wilt thou have done: although thou ask the half of my kingdom, thou shalt have it. Then she answered: If I have found Favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please thee, give me my life for which I ask, and my people for which I request. For we are given up, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. And would God we were sold for bondmen and bondwomen: the evil might be borne with, and I would have mourned in silence: but now we have an enemy, whose cruelty redoundeth upon the king.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Respondénsque rex Assuérus, ait: Quis est iste, et cujus poténtiæ, ut hæc aúdeat fácere? Dixítque Esther: Hostis et inimícus noster péssimus iste est Aman. Quod ille aúdiens, íllico obstúpuit, vultum regis ac regínæ ferre non sústinens. Rex autem irátus surréxit, et de loco convívii intrávit in hortum arbóribus cónsitum. Aman quoque surréxit ut rogáret Esther regínam pro ánima sua, intelléxit enim a rege sibi parátum malum. ¶ Qui cum revérsus esset de horto nemóribus cónsito, et intrásset convívii locum, réperit Aman super léctulum corruísse, in quo jacébat Esther, et ait: Etiam regínam vult opprímere, me præsénte, in domo mea. Necdum verbum de ore regis exíerat, et statim operuérunt fáciem ejus. Dixítque Harbóna, unus de eunúchis, qui stabant in ministério regis: En lignum, quod paráverat Mardochǽo, qui locútus est pro rege, stat in domo Aman, habens altitúdinis quinquagínta cúbitos. Cui dixit rex: Appéndite eum in eo. Suspénsus est ítaque Aman in patíbulo quod paráverat Mardochǽo: et regis ira quiévit.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
And king Assuerus answered and said: Who is this, and of what power, that he should do these things? And Esther said: It is this Aman that is our adversary and most wicked enemy. Aman hearing this was forthwith astonished, not being able to bear the countenance of the king and of the queen. But the king being angry rose up, and went from the place of the banquet into the garden set with trees. Aman also rose up to entreat Esther the queen for his life, for he understood that evil was prepared for him by the king. ¶ And when the king came back out of the garden set with trees, and entered into the place of the banquet, he found Aman was fallen upon the bed on which Esther lay, and he said: He will force the queen also in my presence, in my own house. The word was not yet gone out of the king's mouth, and immediately they covered his face. And Harbona, one of the eunuchs that stood waiting on the king, said: Behold the gibbet which he hath prepared for Mardochai, who spoke for the king, standeth in Aman's house, being fifty cubits high. And the king said to him: Hang him upon it. So Aman was hanged on the gibbet, which he had prepared for Mardochai: and the king's wrath ceased.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Sermo sancti Bernárdi Abbátis.
A sermon of St. Bernard, Abbot
Ex Serm. in cap. 12. Apoc. ante med.
Amplectámur Maríæ vestígia, fratres mei, et devotíssima supplicatióne beátis illíus pédibus provolvámur. Teneámus eam, nec dimittámus, donec benedíxerit nobis: potens est enim. Nempe vellus est médium inter rorem et áream: múlier inter solem et lunam: María inter Christum et Ecclésiam constitúta. Sed forte miráris, non tam vellus opértum rore, quam amíctam sole mulíerem. Magna síquidem familiáritas, sed mira omníno vicínitas solis, et mulíeris. Quómodo enim in tam veheménti fervóre tam frágilis natúra subsístit? Mérito quidem admiráris Móyses sancte, et curiósius desíderas intuéri. Verúmtamen solve calceaménta de pédibus tuis, et involúcra pone carnálium cogitatiónum, si accédere concupíscis.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
My brothers, let us cast ourselves at Mary's blessed feet with the most devout supplication. Let us embrace them, let us hold fast to her, and not let go until she blesses us; for she has great power. Like the fleece between the dew and the threshing floor, like the woman between the sun and the moon, so Mary stands between Christ and the Church. But perhaps you wonder, not so much at the fleece covered with dew, but at the woman clothed with the sun. Any relationship between the sun and the woman would be striking enough, but this proximity is indeed something to be marveled at. How can so fragile a nature subsist in that excessive heat? You have a right to wonder, saintly Moses; it is only natural that in your curiosity you should want to look more closely. But "remove the sandals from your feet", put aside the covering of fleshly thoughts, if you wish to draw near.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

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.

Bless we the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
Compláceat.
Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me.
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.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.
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.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.
Compláceat tibi Dómine, ut erípias me: Dómine ad adjuvándum me réspice.
Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me O Lord, look upon me to help me.
Sana Dómine.
Lord, heal my soul;
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.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.
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.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.
Sana Dómine ánimam meam, quia peccávi tibi.
Lord, heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
Sitívit.
My soul thirsteth for the living God;
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.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.
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.
O Lord, grant them * eternal rest.
And let the everlasting light * shine upon them.
Sitívit ánima mea ad Deum vivum: quando véniam, et apparébo ante fáciem Dómini?
My soul thirsteth for the living God; when shall I come and appear before God?
℣. Ne tradas béstiis ánimas confiténtes tibi.
℟. Et ánimas paúperum tuórum ne obliviscáris in finem.
℣. O deliver not unto beasts the souls of them that praise thee!
℟. And forget not the souls of thy poor for ever.
Dicitur 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.
Spíritus meus attenuábitur, dies mei breviabúntur, et solum mihi súperest sepúlchrum. Non peccávi, et in amaritudínibus morátur óculus meus. Líbera me Dómine, et pone me juxta te, et cujúsvis manus pugnet contra me. Dies mei transiérunt, cogitatiónes meæ dissipátæ sunt, torquéntes cor meum. Noctem vertérunt in diem, et rursum post ténebras spero lucem. Si sustinúero, inférnus domus mea est, et in ténebris stravi léctulum meum. Putrédini dixi: Pater meus es, mater mea, et soror mea, vérmibus. Ubi est ergo nunc præstolátio mea, et patiéntiam meam quis consíderat?
My spirit shall be wasted, my days shall be shortened, and only the grave remaineth for me. I have not sinned, and my eye abideth in bitterness. Deliver me O Lord, and set me beside thee, and let any man's hand fight against me. My days have passed away, my thoughts are dissipated, tormenting my heart. They have turned night into day, and after darkness I hope for light again. If I wait hell is my house, and I have made my bed in darkness. If I have said to rottenness: thou art my father; to worms, my mother and my sister. Where is now then my expectation, and who considereth my patience?
Responsorium VII.
℟. Peccántem me quotídie, et non me pœniténtiam, timor mortis contúrbat me: * Quia in inférno nulla est redémptio, miserére mei Deus, et salva me.
℣. Deus in nómine tuo salvum me fac, et in virtúte tua líbera me.
℟. Quia in inférno nulla est redémptio, miserére mei Deus, et salva me.
℟. Forasmuch as I sin daily, and repent not, the fear of death troubleth me. * O God, have mercy upon me, and save me, for in hell there is no redemption.
℣. Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.
℟. O God, have mercy upon me, and save me, for in hell there is no redemption.
Pelli meæ, consúmptis cárnibus, adhǽsit os meum, et derelícta sunt tantúmmodo lábia circa dentes meos. Miserémini mei, miserémini mei, saltem vos amíci mei, quia manus Dómini tétigit me. Quare persequímini me sicut Deus, et cárnibus meis saturámini? Quis mihi tríbuat ut scribántur sermónes mei? quis mihi det ut exaréntur in libro stylo férreo, et plumbi lámina, vel certe sculpántur in sílice? Scio enim quod Redémptor meus vivit, et in novíssimo die de terra surrectúrus sum: et rursum circúmdabor pelle mea, et in carne mea vidébo Deum meum. Quem visúrus sum ego ipse, et óculi mei conspectúri sunt, et non álius: repósita est hæc spes mea in sinu meo.
The flesh being consumed. My bone hath cleaved to my skin, and nothing but lips are left about my teeth. Have pity on me, have pity on me, at least you my friends, because the hand of the Lord hath touched me. Why do you persecute me as God, and glut yourselves with my flesh? Who will grant me that my words may be written? Who will grant me that they may be marked down in a book? With an iron pen and in a plate of lead, or else be graven with an instrument in flint stone. For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and in the last day I shall rise out of the earth. And I shall be clothed again with my skin, and in my flesh I will see my God. Whom I myself shall see, and my eyes shall behold, and not another: this my hope is laid up in my bosom.
Responsorium VIII.
℟. Dómine secúndum actum meum noli me judicáre: nihil dignum in conspéctu tuo egi: ídeo déprecor majestátem tuam, * Ut tu Deus déleas iniquitátem meam.
℣. Amplius lava me Dómine ab injustítia mea, et a delícto meo munda me.
℟. Ut tu Deus déleas iniquitátem meam.
℟. O Lord, judge me not according to my works; for I have done nothing that can be counted in respect of thee. I beseech thy majesty therefore, that thou wouldest * Blot out my transgressions, O God.
℣. Lord, wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
℟. Blot out my transgressions, O God.
Quare de vulva eduxísti me? qui útinam consúmptus essem ne óculus me vidéret. Fuíssem quasi non essem, de útero translátus ad túmulum. Numquid non paúcitas diérum meórum finiétur brevi? dimítte ergo me, ut plangam paúlulum dolórem meum: ántequam vadam, et non revértar, ad terram tenebrósam et opértam mortis calígine: terram misériæ et tenebrárum, ubi umbra mortis, et nullus ordo, sed sempitérnus horror inhábitat.
Why didst thou bring me forth out of the womb: O that I had been consumed that eye might not see me! I should have been as if I had not been, carried from the womb to the grave. Shall not the fewness of my days be ended shortly? suffer me, therefore, that I may lament my sorrow a little: Before I go, and return no more, to a land that is dark and covered with the mist of death: A land of misery and darkness, where the shadow of death, and no order, but everlasting horror dwelleth.
Responsorium IX.
℟. Líbera me Dómine de viis inférni, qui portas ǽreas confregísti: et visitásti inférnum, et dedísti eis lumen, ut vidérent te: * Qui erant in pœnis tenebrárum.
℣. Clamántes et dicéntes: Advenísti Redémptor noster.
℟. Qui erant in pœnis tenebrárum.
℣. Réquiem ætérnam dona eis Dómine: et lux perpétua lúceat eis.
℟. Qui erant in pœnis tenebrárum.
℟. Deliver me from the ways of hell, O Lord, Who didst break the gates of brass in sunder, and didst descend into hell, and give them light, * That they that sat in affliction and darkness might behold thee.
℣. Crying and saying, Thou hast come, O our Redeemer
℟. That they that sat in affliction and darkness might behold thee.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. That they that sat in affliction and darkness might behold thee.
Deinde clara voce:
℣. Deus ✠ in adjutórium meum inténde.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. Allelúja.
℣. Make haste, ✠ O God, to deliver me.

The bones which thou hast broken.
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.
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.
The bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
Exaúdi Dómine.
Lord, hear.
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.
Lord, hear my prayer; unto thee shall all flesh come.
Me suscépit.
Thy right hand.
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.
Thy right hand upholdeth me.
A porta ínferi.
From the gates of hell.
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.
A porta ínferi érue Dómine ánimam meam.
From the gates of hell deliver my soul, O Lord.
Omnis spíritus.
Let everything that hath breath.

3 Laudent nomen ejus in choro: * in týmpano, et psaltério psallant ei.

8 Ad alligándos reges eórum in compédibus: * et nóbiles eórum in mánicis férreis.
9 Ut fáciant in eis judícium conscríptum: * glória hæc est ómnibus sanctis ejus.
Psalmus 150.

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.
Réquiem ætérnam * dona eis Dómine.
Et lux perpétua * lúceat eis.
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.
Ego sum resurréctio et vita: qui credit in me, étiam si mórtuus fúerit, vivet: et omnis qui vivit et credit in me, non moriétur in ætérnum.
I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.
