Psalmus 72

Psalm 72

Cur iustus vexetur

Reason why the righteous are harassed

Beatus est, qui non fuerit scandalizatus in me (Mt 11,6).

Blessed is the one for whom I will not be an occasion for scandal.

Quam bonus rectis est Deus, * Deus his, qui mundo sunt corde!

How good God is to those who are pure in heart!

Mei autem pæne moti sunt pedes, * pæne effúsi sunt gressus mei,

My feet were almost shaken, my steps almost reversed,

quia zelávi super gloriántes, * pacem peccatórum videns.

forasmuch as I have envied the wicked, when I behold the peace of sinners.

Quia non sunt eis impediménta, * sanus et pinguis est venter eórum.

For death seems to forget them, and their wounds do not last.

In labóre mortálium non sunt * et cum homínibus non flagellántur.

They have no share in the labor of mortals, and they are not smitten like other men.

Ídeo quasi torques est eis supérbia, * et tamquam induméntum opéruit eos violéntia.

Wherefore pride has seized them; they are covered with their iniquity and ungodliness.

Prodit quasi ex ádipe iníquitas eórum, * erúmpunt cogitatiónes cordis.

Iniquity comes out as from their fat; they have abandoned themselves unto the passions of their hearts.

Subsannavérunt et locúti sunt nequítiam, * iniquitátem ab excélso locúti sunt.

Their thoughts and words have been naught but malice; they have uttered iniquity loudly.

Posuérunt in cælo os suum, * et lingua eórum transívit in terra.

They opened their mouths against Heaven, and their tongues roamed the earth.

Ídeo in alto sedent, * et aquæ plenæ non pervénient ad eos.

Et dixérunt: “Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in Excélso?”

And they said, How does God know? * And does the Most High know about it?

Ecce ipsi peccatóres et abundántes in sǽculo * multiplicavérunt divítias.

Behold at those sinners who abound in everything in this world: they have acquired new riches.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, and ever shall be. Amen.

Ant. 2.

Et dixi: “Ergo sine causa mundávi cor meum * et lavi in innocéntia manus meas;

And I said, In vain did I purify my heart, and washed my hands amongst the innocent,

et fui flagellátus tota die, * et castigátio mea in matutínis.”

since I have been afflicted all day, and chastened in the morning.

Si dixíssem: “Lóquar ut illi”, * ecce generatiónem filiórum tuórum prodidíssem.

If I had said, "I will speak in this sense," I would have condemned the race of Thy children.

Et cogitábam, ut cognóscerem hoc; * labor erat in óculis meis,

I thought of penetrating this secret; the difficulty was great before me,

donec intrávi in sanctuárium Dei * et intelléxi novíssima eórum.

until such time as such time as I had entered the sanctuary of God, and understood what their end would be.

Verúmtamen in lúbrico posuísti eos, * deiecísti eos in ruínas.

Verily, these are snares that Thou hast set before them; Thou overthrew them just as they were rising.

Quómodo facti sunt in desolatiónem! * Súbito defecérunt, periérunt præ horróre.

How did they fall into desolation? They disappeared suddenly; they have perished forasmuch as of their iniquity.

Velut sómnium evigilántis, Dómine, * surgens imáginem ipsórum contémnes.

Like the dream of those who awaken, O Lord, Thou shalt reduce their image to naught in Thy city.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, and ever shall be. Amen.

Quia exacerbátum est cor meum, * et renes mei compúncti sunt;

Forasmuch as my heart has been inflamed, and my loins have been altered,

et ego insípiens factus sum et nescívi: * ut iuméntum factus sum apud te.

I have been reduced to nothingness, and plunged into ignorance.

Ego autem semper tecum; * tenuísti manum déxteram meam.

I have become before Thou as a beast of burden, and yet I am evermore with Thou.

In consílio tuo dedúces me * et póstea cum glória suscípies me.

Thou held my right hand, and led me according to Thy will, and received me with glory.

Quis enim mihi est in cælo? * Et tecum nihil vólui super terram.

For what is there for me in Heaven? and what have I desired from Thou on earth?

Defécit caro mea et cor meum; * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

My flesh and my heart have failed, O God, who is the God of my heart, and my portion for eternity.

Quia ecce, qui elóngant se a te, períbunt; * perdidísti omnes, qui fornicántur abs te.

For behold, those who depart from thee will perish; Thou hast resolved to destroy all those who prostitute themselves by distancing themselves from Thou.

Mihi autem adhærére Deo bonum est, * pónere in Dómino Deo spem meam,

As for me, it is my happiness to cleave to God, to put my hope in the Lord God;

ut annúntiem omnes operatiónes tuas * in portis fíliæ Sion.

to publish all Thy praises at the gates of the daughter of Zion.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

De Epístula ad Hebræos

Si consummátio per sacerdótium levíticum erat, pópulus enim sub ipso legem accépit, quid adhuc necessárium secúndum órdinem Melchísedech álium súrgere sacerdótem et non " secúndum órdinem Aaron " dici? Transláto enim sacerdótio, necésse est ut et legis translátio fiat. De quo enim hæc dicúntur, ex alia tribu est, ex qua nullus altári præsto fuit; maniféstum enim quod ex Iuda ortus sit Dóminus noster, in quam tribum nihil de sacerdótibus Móyses locútus est.

Et ámplius adhuc maniféstum est, si secúndum similitúdinem Melchísedech exsúrgit álius sacérdos qui non secúndum legem mandáti carnális factus est sed secúndum virtútem vitæ insolúbilis, testimónium enim áccipit: Tu es sacérdos in ætérnum secúndum órdinem Melchísedech. Reprobátio quidem fit præcedéntis mandáti propter infirmitátem eius et inutilitátem, nihil enim ad perféctum addúxit lex, introdúctio vero melióris spei per quam proximámus ad Deum. Et quantum non est sine iure iurándo, illi quidem sine iure iurándo sacerdótes facti sunt, hic autem cum iure iurándo per eum qui dicit ad illum: Iurávit Dóminus et non pænitébit eum: Tu es sacérdos in ætérnum, in tantum et melióris testaménti sponsor factus est Iesus.

Et illi quidem plures facti sunt sacerdótes, idcírco quod morte prohibebántur permanére; hic autem eo quod manet in ætérnum, intransgressíbile habet sacerdótium, unde et salváre in perpétuum potest accedéntes per semetípsum ad Deum, semper vivens ad interpellándum pro eis. Talis enim et decébat ut nobis esset póntifex, sanctus, ínnocens, impollútus, segregátus a peccatóribus et excélsior cælis factus, qui non habet necessitátem cotídie, quemádmodum pontífices, prius pro suis delíctis hóstias offérre, deínde pro pópuli; hoc enim fecit semel semetípsum offeréndo. Lex enim hómines constítuit pontífices infirmitátem habéntes, sermo autem iuris iurándi, quod post legem est, Fílium in ætérnum consummátum.

r. Qui cognóscis ómnium occúlta, a delícto meo munda me; * Tempus mihi concéde ut repænitens clamem: Peccávi, miserére mei, Deus. v. Avérte fáciem tuam a peccátis meis, et omnes iniquitátes meas dele. * Tempus. v. Glória Patri. * Tempus.

In secundo nocturno, anno I

Ex Tractátu sancti Fulgéntii Ruspénsis epíscopi De fide ad Petrum (Cc. 22. 62: CCL 91A, 726. 750)

In sacrifíciis carnálium victimárum, quæ sibi ipsa sancta Trínitas, quæ unus est Deus novi et véteris testaménti, a pátribus nostris præcipiébat offérri, illíus sacrifícii significabátur gratíssimum munus, quo pro nobis seípsum solus Deus Fílius secúndum carnem esset misericórditer oblatúrus. Ipse enim, secúndum apostólicam doctrínam óbtulit semetípsum pro nobis oblatiónem et hóstiam Deo in odórem suavitátis. Ipse verus Deus et verus póntifex, qui pro nobis non in sánguine taurórum et hircórum, sed in sánguine suo semel introívit in sancta. Quod tunc póntifex ille significábat, qui cum sánguine in sancta sanctórum per annos síngulos introíbat.

Iste ígitur est, qui in se uno totum exhíbuit quod esse necessárium ad redemptiónis nostræ sciébat efféctum, idem scílicet sacérdos et sacrifícium, idem Deus et templum; sacérdos, per quem sumus reconciliáti; sacrifícium, quo reconciliáti; templum, in quo reconciliáti; Deus, cui reconciliáti. Solus tamen sacérdos, sacrifícium et templum, quia hæc ómnia Deus secúndum formam servi; non autem solus Deus, quia hoc cum Patre et Spíritu Sancto secúndum formam Dei.

Firmíssime ergo tene et nullátenus dúbites, ipsum unigénitum Deum Verbum, carnem factum, se pro nobis obtulísse sacrifícium et hóstiam Deo in odórem suavitátis; cui cum Patre et Spíritu Sancto a patriárchis et prophétis et sacerdótibus, témpore véteris testaménti, animália sacrificabántur; et cui nunc, id est témpore novi testaménti, cum Patre et Spíritu Sancto, cum quibus illi est una divínitas, sacrifícium panis et vini, in fide et caritáte, sancta cathólica Ecclésia per univérsum orbem terræ offérre non cessat.

r. Emendémus in mélius quæ ignoránter peccávimus, ne súbito præoccupáti die mortis, quærámus spátium pæniténtiæ, et inveníre non possímus. * Atténde, Dómine, et miserére, quia peccávimus tibi. v. Peccávimus cum pátribus nostris, iniúste égimus, iniquitátem fécimus. * Atténde. v. Glória Patri. * Atténde.

Orémus.

Deus, qui ineffabílibus mundum rénovas sacraméntis, † præsta, quǽsumus, ut Ecclésia tua et ætérnis profíciat institútis, * et temporálibus non destituátur auxíliis. Per Dóminum.

God, whose ineffable mysteries renew the world, grant to Thy Church to take advantage of the means which Thou hast instituted for her eternal life, and not to lack Thy help for temporal life.
