Bright splendor of divinity, O Christ, our only life and light, You bring the sick a remedy, And set our crooked paths aright.
Intonat terræ chorus angelórum cǽlicum carmen, nova sæcla dicens, glóriam Patri, generíque nostro gáudia pacis.
So let the angels' song resound, To usher in the age of grace And tell of glory all around, Proclaiming joy unto our race.

You lie, an infant, ruling earth, Now rule our hearts forevermore, To whom a spotless Maid gave birth, O Christ, our most beloved Lord.
Nascéris cælos pátriam datúrus, unus e nobis, caro nostra factus; ínnova mentes, trahe caritátis péctora vinclis.
You came to give us heav'n above, As one of us, you took our flesh; Entwine our hearts with bonds of love And with your grace our minds refresh.
Cœtus exsúltans canit ecce noster ángelis læto sociátus ore, et Patri tecum parilíque Amóri cántica laudis. Amen.

Deus, áuribus nostris audívimus; † patres nostri annuntiavérunt nobis * opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum, in diébus antíquis.
O God, we have heard with our ears; our fathers have told us of the work that Thou hast done in their days, and in the days of old.
Tu manu tua gentes depulísti et plantásti illos, * afflixísti pópulos et dilatásti eos.
Thy hand has destroyed the nations, and thou hast set them in their place; Thou hast afflicted the peoples, and Thou hast driven them out.
Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et bráchium eórum non salvávit eos;
For it was not with their sword that they conquered this land, nor did their arm save them,
sed déxtera tua et bráchium tuum et illuminátio vultus tui, * quóniam complacuísti in eis.
but it is Thy right hand and Thy arm, and the light of Thy face, forasmuch as Thou lovedst them.
Tu es rex meus et Deus meus, * qui mandas salútes Iacob.
Thou art my king and my God, thou who command the salvation of Jacob.
In te inimícos nostros proiécimus * et in nómine tuo conculcávimus insurgéntes in nos.
Through Thou we will overthrow our enemies, and in Thy Name we will despise those who rise up against us.
Non enim in arcu meo sperábo, * et gládius meus non salvábit me.
For it is not in my bow that I will trust, * nor will my sword save me.
Tu autem salvásti nos de affligéntibus nos * et odiéntes nos confudísti.
But it is Thou who have saved us from those who afflicted us, and who have confounded those who hated us.
In Deo gloriábimur tota die * et in nómine tuo confitébimur in sæculum.
In God we will glory all day long, and we will praise Thy Name forevermore.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Nunc autem reppulísti et confudísti nos * et non egrediéris, Deus, cum virtútibus nostris.
But now Thou've turned us away and put us to shame, and Thou don't go out with our armies anymore, God.
Convertísti nos retrórsum coram inimícis nostris, * et, qui odérunt nos, diripuérunt sibi.
Thou madest us turn our backs on our enemies, and those who hated us plundered us.
Dedísti nos tamquam oves ad vescéndum * et in géntibus dispersísti nos.
Thou hast given us up as sheep for slaughter, and thou hast scattered us amongst the nations.
Vendidísti pópulum tuum sine lucro, * nec dítior factus es in commutatióne eórum.
Thou sold thy people at a low price, and there was no crowd in the purchase that was made of them.
Posuísti nos oppróbrium vicínis nostris, * subsannatiónem et derísum his, qui sunt in circúitu nostro.
Thou hast repaid us the reproach of our neighbors, and an object of insult and mockery to those around us.
Posuísti nos similitúdinem in géntibus, * commotiónem cápitis in pópulis.
Thou hast given us back the fable of the nations; the people shake their heads about us.
Tota die verecúndia mea contra me est, * et confúsio faciéi meæ coopéruit me,
All day long my shame is before my eyes, and the confusion of my face covers me entirely,
a voce exprobrántis et obloquéntis, * a fácie inimíci et ultóris.

Hæc ómnia venérunt super nos,† nec oblíti sumus te; * et iníque non égimus in testaméntum tuum.
All these evils have come upon us; and yet we have not forgotten Thou, nor have we acted unjustly against Thy covenant.
Et non recéssit retro cor nostrum, * nec declinavérunt gressus nostri a via tua;
And our hearts have not withdrawn backwards; and Thou hast turned our steps away from Thy way.
sed humiliásti nos in loco vúlpium * et operuísti nos umbra mortis.
For Thou hast humbled us in a place of affliction, and the shadow of death has covered us.
Si oblíti fuérimus nomen Dei nostri * et si expandérimus manus nostras ad deum aliénum,
If we have forgotten the name of our God, and stretched out our hands to a foreign god,
nonne Deus requíret ista? * Ipse enim novit abscóndita cordis.
Won't God ask for an account of it anon? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
Quóniam propter te mortificámur tota die, * æstimáti sumus sicut oves occisiónis.
For it is for thy sake that we are daily given up to death, and that we are looked upon as sheep for slaughter.
Evígila, quare obdórmis, Dómine? * Exsúrge et ne repéllas in finem.
Arise; wherefore do Thou sleep, Lord? Arise, and do not put us away forevermore.
Quare fáciem tuam avértis, * oblivísceris inópiæ nostræ et tribulatiónis nostræ?
Wherefore do Thou turn away Thy face? Wherefore do Thou forget our misery and tribulation?
Quóniam humiliáta est in púlvere ánima nostra, * conglutinátus est in terra venter noster.
For our soul is humbled in the dust, and our bosom is as it were clinging unto the earth.
Exsúrge, Dómine, ádiuva nos * et rédime nos propter misericórdiam tuam.
Arise, Lord; help us, and redeem us by Thy mercy.

De Epístula beáti Pauli apóstoli ad Colossénses
Fratres, nemo vos iúdicet in cibo aut in potu aut ex parte diéi festi aut neoméniæ aut sabbatórum, quæ sunt umbra futurórum, corpus autem Christi. Nemo vos bravío defráudet cómplacens sibi in humilitáte et religióne angelórum propter ea quæ vidit, ingrédiens, frustra inflátus sensu carnis suæ et non tenens caput, ex quo totum corpus per nexus et coniunctiónes subministrátum et compaginátum crescit in augméntum Dei.
Si mórtui estis cum Christo ab eleméntis mundi, quid tamquam vivéntes in mundo decrétis subicímini: " Ne tetígeris neque gustáveris neque contrectáveris ", quæ sunt ómnia in corruptiónem ipso usu secúndum præcépta et doctrínas hóminum?
Igitur si conresurrexístis Christo, quæ sursum sunt quærite, ubi Christus est in déxtera Dei sedens; quæ sursum sunt sápite, non quæ supra terram. Mórtui enim estis, et vita vestra abscóndita est cum Christo in Deo! Cum Christus apparúerit, vita vestra, tunc et vos apparébitis cum ipso in glória.
r. Beáta víscera Maríæ Vírginis, quæ portavérunt ætérni Patris Fílium, et beáta úbera quæ lactavérunt Christum Dóminum: * Quia hódie pro salúte mundi de Vírgine nasci dignátus est. v. Dies sanctificátus illúxit nobis: veníte, Gentes, et adoráte Dóminum. * Quia. v. Glória Patri. * Quia.
In secundo nocturno, anno I
Ex Tractátu sancti Basílii Magni epíscopi de Spíritu Sancto (Cap 26: PG 32, 179-182)
Qui iam non vivit secúndum carnem, sed Spíritu Dei ágitur, ac fílius Dei nominátur et confórmis imágini Fílii Dei factus est, spiritális dícitur. Et sicut cernéndi vis est in óculo sano, sic operátio Spíritus in ánima purgáta. Item quemádmodum verbum est in ánimo, intérdum ut in corde cogitátum, intérdum ut lingua prolátum; sic et Spíritus Sanctus, vel cum testimónium præbet spíritui nostro, et clamat in córdibus nostris: Abba, Pater, vel cum lóquitur pro nobis, iuxta id quod dictum est: Non vos estis qui loquímini, sed Spíritus Patris qui lóquitur in vobis.
Iam vero, et ut totum in pártibus, Spíritus intellégitur iuxta donórum distributiónem. Omnes enim ínvicem sumus membra, sed habéntes dona secúndum Dei grátiam nobis datam divérsa. Eaprópter, non potest dícere óculus mánui: "Non opus hábeo te "; aut rursus caput pédibus: " Non est mihi vobis opus ". Sed ómnia quidem simul complent corpus Christi in unitáte Spíritus; necessáriam autem utilitátem sibi ínvicem reddunt ex donis.
Deus enim pósuit membra in córpore, unumquódque illórum ut vóluit. Membra autem eámdem habent pro se mútuo sollicitúdinem, iuxta spiritálem mútuæ affectiónis ipsis ínsitæ communiónem. Eóque sive pátitur unum membrum, una cum eo patiúntur ómnia membra; sive glorificátur unum membrum, simul gaudent ómnia membra. Rursus, quemádmodum partes sunt in toto, ita sínguli sumus in Spíritu, eo quod omnes in uno córpore in unum Spíritum baptizáti sumus.
r. Congratulámini mihi, omnes qui dilígitis Dóminum: quia cum essem párvula plácui Altíssimo, * Et de meis viscéribus génui Deum et hóminem. v. Beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes, quia ancíllam húmilem respéxit Deus. * Et. v. Glória Patri. * Et.
Orémus.
Deus, qui pópulo tuo, Unigéniti tui nativitáte, redemptiónis efféctum mirabíliter inchoásti, † ita, quǽsumus, fídei fámulis tuis tríbue firmitátem, * ut usque ad promíssum glóriæ prǽmium, ipso gubernánte, pervéniant. Qui tecum.
God, who has wonderfully begun the effect of redemption for Thy people by the birth of Thy only Son, grant, we ask Thou, the steadfastness of faith to Thy servants, so that they may attain, under His guidance, unto the reward of the promised glory.
