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.

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.

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.

8 And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings: my soul hath stuck close to thee: * thy right hand hath received me.
9 But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth: * they shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.
10 But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: * because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.

1 May God have mercy on us, and bless us: * may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us.
2 That we may know thy way upon earth: * thy salvation in all nations.
3 Let people confess to thee, O God: * let all people give praise to thee.
4 Let the nations be glad and rejoice: * for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth.
5 Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee: * the earth hath yielded her fruit.
6 May God, our God bless us, may God bless us: * and all the ends of the earth fear him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

In odórem unguentórum tuórum cúrrimus: adolescéntulæ dilexérunt te nimis.

In the scent of thy perfumes we run after thee; other virgins love thee heartily.

Benedícta fília.

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.

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.

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.

Jubiláte.

Make a joyful noise.

Psalmus 99.

Jubiláte Deo omnis terra: * servíte Dómino in lætítia.
2 Introíte in conspéctu ejus, * in exsultatióne.
3 Scitóte quóniam Dóminus ipse est Deus: * ipse fecit nos, et non ipsi nos.
4 Pópulus ejus, et oves páscuæ ejus: * introíte portas ejus in confessióne, átria ejus in hymnis: confitémini illi.
5 Laudáte nomen ejus: quóniam suávis est Dóminus, in ætérnum misericórdia ejus, * et usque in generatiónem et generatiónem véritas ejus.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Sing joyfully to God, all the earth: * serve ye the Lord with gladness.
2 Come in before his presence * with exceeding great joy.
3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: * he made us, and not we ourselves.
4 We are his people and the sheep of his pasture. * Go ye into his gates with praise, into his courts with hymns: and give glory to him.
5 Praise ye his name: for the Lord is sweet, his mercy endureth for ever, * and his truth to generation and generation.
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.

Jubiláte Deo omnis terra.

Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands.

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.

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.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam.

A Lesson from the Holy Gospel according to Luke.

Luc. 6. c.

In illo témpore: Descéndens Jesus de monte, stetit in loco campéstri, et turba discipulórum ejus, et multitúdo copiósa plebis ab omni Judǽa, et Jerúsalem, et marítima, et Tyri, et Sidónis. Et réliqua.

At that time: Jesus came down from the mountain, and stood in the plain, and the company of His disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judea, and Jerusalem, and from the sea cost of Tyre and Sidon. And so on.

Homilía sancti Ambrósii Epíscopi.

Homily by St. Ambrose, Bishop.

Lib. 5. in Lucam. Cap . 6., post init.

Advérte ómnia diligénter, quómodo et cum Apóstolis ascéndat et descéndat ad turbas. Quómodo enim turba nisi in húmili Christum vidéret? Non séquitur ad excélsa, non ascéndit ad sublímia. Dénique ubi descéndit, invénit infírmos: in excélsis enim infírmi esse non possunt. Hinc étiam Matthǽus docet in inferióribus débiles esse sanátos. Prius enim unusquísque sanándus est, ut paulátim virtútibus procedéntibus ascéndere possit ad montem. Et ídeo quemque in inferióribus sanat, hoc est, a libídine révocat, injúriam cæcitátis avértit. Ad vúlnera nostra descéndit: ut usu quodam et cópia suæ natúræ, compartícipes nos fáciat esse regni cœléstis.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.

Mark well how Jesus goeth upward with His disciples, and downward to the multitude. How should the multitude behold Christ, save in a lower place? Such go not up to the things which are above; such attain not to the things which are high. And when Jesus cometh down, He findeth such as are diseased: for such like go not up to the heights. Hence also Matthew saith that there were there all sick people. Of these every man had need of healing, that, when he had received strenght, by and by, he might go up into the mountain. And therefore, being Himself come down, He healeth them in the plain, that is to say, He calleth them away from their lust, and freeth them of their blindness. He cometh down to our wounds, to the end that by a certain use of His nature, and by the abundance thereof, He might make us joint-heirs of the kingdom of heaven.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Beáti paúperes, quia vestrum est regnum Dei. Quátuor tantum beatúdines sanctus Lucas domínicas pósuit, octo vero sanctus Matthǽus: sed in illis octo istæ quátuor sunt, et in quátuor istis illæ octo. Hic enim quátuor velut virtútes ampléxus est cardináles: ille in illis octo mýsticum númerum reserávit. Pro octáva enim multi inscribúntur Psalmi: et mandátum áccipis octo illis partem dare fortásse benedictiónibus. Sicut enim spei nostræ octáva perféctio est, ita octáva summa virtútum est.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.

Blessed be ye poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Saint Luke giveth us but four of the Lord’s Beatitudes, and Saint Matthew eight: but in those eight are contained these four, and in these four those eight. For in these four are embraced the cardinal virtues: and in those eight they are set forth in a number full of mystery. It is written at the head of more than one of the Psalms that they are for the octave, and thou hast received the commandment: Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; to seven or eight what? Perchance degrees of blessedness. For as this eighth doth name the most glorious realization of our hope: the kingdom of Heaven: so doth it also name the most royal exertion of our strength: blessed are they which are persecuted.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Responsorium II.

℟. Ornavérunt fáciem templi corónis aúreis, et dedicavérunt altáre Dómino: * Et facta est lætítia magna in pópulo.
℣. In hymnis et confessiónibus benedicébant Dóminum.
℟. Et facta est lætítia magna in pópulo.

Ad societátem cívium supernórum * perdúcat nos Rex Angelórum.
℟. Amen.

Sir, be pleased to give the blessing.
May He that is the Angels’ King * to that high realm His people bring.
Amen.

Sed prius quæ sunt amplióra videámus. Beáti, inquit, paúperes, quóniam vestrum est regnum Dei. Primam benedictiónem hanc utérque Evangelísta pósuit. Ordine enim prima est, et parens quædam generatióque virtútum: quia qui contémpserit sæculária, ipse merébitur sempitérna: nec potest quisquam méritum regni cœléstis adipísci, qui mundi cupiditáte pressus, emergéndi non habet facultátem.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.

But let us first consider the fuller of the forms of these Beatitudes. Blessed be ye poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Both of the Evangelists give to this Beatitude the first place. Yea, surely, for poorness, at least in spirit, is the first in order, the mother, and procreatrix of virtues; since he that setteth no store by temporal things, winneth toward eternal things; neither is any man able to gain the kingdom of heaven, on whom the love of this present world doth so press, that he cannot rid himself thereof.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Responsorium III.

℟. In hymnis et confessiónibus benedicébant Dóminum: * Qui magna fecit in Israël, et victóriam dedit illis Dóminus omnípotens.
℣. Ornavérunt fáciem templi corónis aúreis, et dedicavérunt altáre Dómino.
℟. Qui magna fecit in Israël, et victóriam dedit illis Dóminus omnípotens.
℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui sancto.

Psalmus 50.

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

Have mercy on me, O God, * according to thy great mercy.
2 And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies * blot out my iniquity.
3 Wash me yet more from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.
4 For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is always before me.
5 To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: * that thou mayst be justified in thy words and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
6 For behold I was conceived in iniquities; * and in sins did my mother conceive me.
7 For behold thou hast loved truth: * the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
8 Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: * thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
9 To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: * and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
10 Turn away thy face from my sins, * and blot out all my iniquities.
11 Create a clean heart in me, O God: * and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
12 Cast me not away from thy face; * and take not thy holy spirit from me.
13 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, * and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
14 I will teach the unjust thy ways: * and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
15 Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: * and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
16 O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: * and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
17 For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: * with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
18 A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
19 Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; * that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
20 Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: * then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

Benígne fac in bona voluntáte tua Dómine.

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.

Bonum est confíteri Dómino.

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.

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.

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

1 May God have mercy on us, and bless us: * may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us.
2 That we may know thy way upon earth: * thy salvation in all nations.
3 Let people confess to thee, O God: * let all people give praise to thee.
4 Let the nations be glad and rejoice: * for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth.
5 Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee: * the earth hath yielded her fruit.
6 May God, our God bless us, may God bless us: * and all the ends of the earth fear him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

Métuant Dóminum omnes fines terræ.

Canticum Moysi 2.

Audíte cœli quæ loquor: * aúdiat terra verba oris mei.
2 Concréscat ut plúvia doctrína mea, * fluat ut ros elóquium meum,
3 Quasi imber super herbam, et quasi stillæ super grámina. * Quia nomen Dómini invocábo:
4 Date magnificéntiam Deo nostro. * Dei perfécta sunt ópera, et omnes viæ ejus judícia:
5 Deus fidélis, et absque ulla iniquitáte, justus et rectus. * Peccavérunt ei, et non fílii ejus in sórdibus:
6 Generátio prava atque pervérsa. * Hǽccine reddis Dómino pópule stulte et insípiens?
7 Numquid non ipse est pater tuus, * qui possédit te, et fecit, et creávit te?
8 Meménto diérum antiquórum, * cógita generatiónes síngulas:
9 Intérroga patrem tuum, et annuntiábit tibi: * majóres tuos, et dicent tibi.
10 Quando dividébat Altíssimus Gentes: * quando separábat fílios Adam,
11 Constítuit términos populórum * juxta númerum filiórum Israël.
12 Pars autem Dómini, pópulus ejus: * Jacob funículus hæreditátis ejus.
13 Invénit eum in terra desérta, * in loco horróris, et vastæ solitúdinis:
14 Circumdúxit eum, et dócuit: * et custodívit quasi pupíllam óculi sui.
15 Sicut áquila próvocans ad volándum pullos suos, * et super eos vólitans,
16 Expándit alas suas, et assúmpsit eum, * atque portávit in húmeris suis.
17 Dóminus solus dux ejus fuit: * et non erat cum eo deus aliénus.
18 Constítuit eum super excélsam terram: * ut coméderet fructus agrórum,
19 Ut súgeret mel de petra, * oleúmque de saxo duríssimo.
20 Butýrum de arménto, et lac de óvibus * cum ádipe agnórum, et aríetum filiórum Basan:
21 Et hircos cum medúlla trítici, * et sánguinem uvæ bíberet meracíssimum.
22 Incrassátus est diléctus, et recalcitrávit: * incrassátus, impinguátus, dilatátus,
23 Derelíquit Deum factórem suum, * et recéssit a Deo salutári suo.
24 Provocavérunt eum in diis aliénis, * et in abominatiónibus ad iracúndiam concitavérunt.
25 Immolavérunt dæmóniis, et non Deo, * diis, quos ignorábant:
26 Novi recentésque venérunt, * quos non coluérunt patres eórum.
27 Deum qui te génuit dereliquísti, * et oblítus es Dómini creatóris tui.
28 Vidit Dóminus, et ad iracúndiam concitátus est: * quia provocavérunt eum fílii sui et fíliæ.
29 Et ait: Abscóndam fáciem meam ab eis, * et considerábo novíssima eórum:
30 Generátio enim pervérsa est, * et infidéles fílii.
31 Ipsi me provocavérunt in eo, qui non erat Deus, * et irritavérunt in vanitátibus suis:
32 Et ego provocábo eos in eo, qui non est pópulus, * et in gente stulta irritábo illos.
33 Ignis succénsus est in furóre meo, * et ardébit usque ad inférni novíssima:
34 Devorabítque terram cum gérmine suo, * et móntium fundaménta combúret.
35 Congregábo super eos mala, * et sagíttas meas complébo in eis.
36 Consuméntur fame, * et devorábunt eos aves morsu amaríssimo:
37 Dentes bestiárum immíttam in eos, * cum furóre trahéntium super terram, atque serpéntium.
38 Foris vastábit eos gládius, et intus pavor, * júvenem simul ac vírginem, lacténtem cum hómine sene.
39 Dixi: Ubinam sunt? * cessáre fáciam ex homínibus memóriam eórum.
40 Sed propter iram inimicórum dístuli: * ne forte superbírent hostes eórum,
41 Et dícerent: Manus nostra excélsa, et non Dóminus, * fecit hæc ómnia.
42 Gens absque consílio est, et sine prudéntia. * Utinam sáperent, et intellígerent, ac novíssima providérent.
43 Quómodo persequátur unus mille, * et duo fugent decem míllia?
44 Nonne ídeo, quia Deus suus véndidit eos, * et Dóminus conclúsit illos?
45 Non enim est Deus noster ut dii eórum: * et inimíci nostri sunt júdices.
46 De vínea Sodomórum, vínea eórum, * et de suburbánis Gomórrhæ:
47 Uva eórum uva fellis, * et botri amaríssimi.
48 Fel dracónum vinum eórum, * et venénum áspidum insanábile.
49 Nonne hæc cóndita sunt apud me, * et signáta in thesaúris meis?
50 Mea est últio, et ego retríbuam in témpore, * ut labátur pes eórum:
51 Juxta est dies perditiónis, * et adésse festínant témpora.
52 Judicábit Dóminus pópulum suum, * et in servis suis miserébitur:
53 Vidébit quod infirmáta sit manus, * et clausi quoque defecérunt, residuíque consúmpti sunt.
54 Et dicet: Ubi sunt dii eórum, * in quibus habébant fidúciam?
55 De quorum víctimis comedébant ádipes, * et bibébant vinum libáminum:
56 Surgant, et opituléntur vobis, * et in necessitáte vos prótegant.
57 Vidéte quod ego sim solus, * et non sit álius Deus præter me:
58 Ego occídam, et ego vívere fáciam: percútiam, et ego sanábo, * et non est qui de manu mea possit erúere.
59 Levábo ad cœlum manum meam, et dicam: * Vivo ego in ætérnum.
60 Si acúero ut fulgur gládium meum, * et arripúerit judícium manus mea:
61 Reddam ultiónem hóstibus meis, * et his qui odérunt me retríbuam.
62 Inebriábo sagíttas meas sánguine, * et gládius meus devorábit carnes,
63 De cruóre occisórum, * et de captivitáte, nudáti inimicórum cápitis.
64 Laudáte Gentes pópulum ejus, * quia sánguinem servórum suórum ulciscétur:
65 Et vindíctam retríbuet in hostes eórum, * et propítius erit terræ pópuli sui.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Hear, O ye heavens, the things I speak, * let the earth give ear to the words of my mouth.
2 Let my doctrine gather as the rain, * let my speech distil as the dew,
3 As a shower upon the herb, and as drops upon the grass. * Because I will invoke the name of the Lord:
4 Give ye magnificence to our God. * The works of God are perfect, and all his ways are judgments:
5 God is faithful and without any iniquity, he is just and right. * They have sinned against him, and are not of his children in their filth:
6 They are a wicked and perverse generation. * Is this the return thou makest to the Lord, O foolish and senseless people?
7 Is not he thy father, * that hath possessed thee, and made thee, and created thee?
8 Remember the days of old, * think upon every generation:
9 Ask thy father, and he will declare to thee: * thy elders and they will tell thee.
10 When the Most High divided the nations: * when he separated the sons of Adam,
11 He appointed the bounds of people * according to the number of the children of Israel.
12 But the Lord's portion is his people: * Jacob the lot of his inheritance.
13 He found him in a desert land, * in a place of horror, and of vast wilderness:
14 He led him about, and taught him: * and he kept him as the apple of his eye.
15 As the eagle enticing her young to fly, * and hovering over them,
16 He spread his wings, and hath taken him * and carried him on his shoulders.
17 The Lord alone was his leader: * and there was no strange god with him.
18 He set him upon high land: * that he might eat the fruits of the fields,
19 That he might suck honey out of the rock, * and oil out of the hardest stone,
20 Butter of the herd, and milk of the sheep * with the fat of lambs, and of the rams of the breed of Basan:
21 And goats with the marrow of wheat, * and might drink the purest blood of the grape.
22 The beloved grew fat, and kicked: * he grew fat, and thick and gross,
23 He forsook God who made him, * and departed from God his saviour.
24 They provoked him by strange gods, * and stirred him up to anger, with their abominations.
25 They sacrificed to devils and not to God: * to gods whom they knew not:
26 That were newly come up, * whom their fathers worshipped not.
27 Thou hast forsaken the God that beget thee, * and hast forgotten the Lord that created thee.
28 The Lord saw, and was moved to wrath: * because his own sons and daughters provoked him.
29 And he said: I will hide my face from them, * and will consider what their last end shall be:
30 For it is a perverse generation, * and unfaithful children.
31 They have provoked me with that which was no god, * and have angered me with their vanities:
32 And I will provoke them with that which is no people, * and will vex them with a foolish nation.
33 A fire is kindled in my wrath, * and shall burn even to the lowest hell:
34 And shall devour the earth with her increase, * and shall burn the foundations of the mountains.
35 I will heap evils upon them, * and will spend my arrows among them.
36 They shall be consumed with famine, * and birds shall devour them with a most bitter bite:
37 I will send the teeth of beasts upon them, * with the fury of creatures that trail upon the ground, and of serpents.
38 Without, the sword shall lay them waste, and terror within, * both the young man and the virgin, the sucking child with the man in years.
39 I said: Where are they? * I will make the memory of them to cease from among men.
40 But for the wrath of the enemies I have deferred it: * lest perhaps their enemies might be proud,
41 And should say: Our mighty hand, and not the Lord, * hath done all these things.
42 They are a nation without counsel, and without wisdom. * O that they would be wise and would understand, and would provide for their last end.
43 How should one pursue after a thousand, * and two chase ten thousand?
44 Was it not, because their God had sold them, * and the Lord had shut them up?
45 For our God is not as their gods: * our enemies themselves are judges.
46 Their vines are of the vineyard of Sodom, * and of the suburbs of Gomorrha:
47 Their grapes are grapes of gall, * and their clusters most bitter.
48 Their wine is the gall of dragons, * and the venom of asps, which is incurable.
49 Are not these things stored up with me, * and sealed up in my treasures?
50 Revenge is mine, and I will repay them in due time, * that their foot may slide:
51 The day of destruction is at hand, * and the time makes haste to come.
52 The Lord will judge his people, * and will have mercy on his servants:
53 He shall see that their hand is weakened, * and that they who were shut up have also failed, and they that remained are consumed.
54 And he shall say: Where are their gods, * in whom they trusted?
55 Of whose victims they ate the fat, * and drank the wine of their drink offerings:
56 Let them arise and help you, * and protect you in your distress.
57 See ye that I alone am, * and there is no other God besides me:
58 I will kill and I will make to live: I will strike, and I will heal, * and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.
59 I will lift up my hand to heaven, and I will say: * I live for ever.
60 If I shall whet my sword as the lightning, * and my hand take hold on judgment:
61 I will render vengeance to my enemies, * and repay them that hate me.
62 I will make my arrows drunk with blood, * and my sword shall devour flesh,
63 Of the blood of the slain * and of the captivity, of the bare head of the enemies.
64 Praise his people, ye nations, * for he will revenge the blood of his servants:
65 And will render vengeance to their enemies, * and he will be merciful to the land of his people.
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.

Date magnitúdinem Deo nostro.

Ascribe ye greatness unto our God.

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

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

Illumináre Dómine his, qui in ténebris sedent, et dírige pedes nostros in viam pacis, Deus Israël.
