Each sin to Thee of years gone by, Each hidden stain lies bare; We shrink not from Thine awful eye, But pray that Thou wouldst spare.

Misericórdias Dómini in ætérnum cantábo, * in generatiónem et generatiónem annuntiábo veritátem tuam in ore meo.
I will sing the mercies of the Lord for ever; from generation to generation my mouth will declare Thy truth.
Quóniam dixísti: «In ætérnum misericórdia ædificábitur», * in cælis firmábitur véritas tua.
For Thou hast said, "Mercy will be raised up like an everlasting building in heaven; Thy truth will be firmly established there.
«Dispósui testaméntum elécto meo, * iurávi David servo meo:
I have entered into a covenant with My chosen ones; I swore this oath to David My servant:
Usque in ætérnum confirmábo semen tuum * et ædificábo in generatiónem et generatiónem sedem tuam».
I will preserve thy seed forevermore, and I will establish thy throne for all generations.
Confitebúntur cæli mirabília tua, Dómine, * étenim veritátem tuam in ecclésia sanctórum.
Heaven will declare Thy wonders, Lord, and Thy truth in the assembly of the saints.
Quóniam quis in núbibus æquábitur Dómino, * símilis erit Dómino in fíliis Dei?
For who in heaven will be equal unto the Lord? and who will be like God amongst the sons of God?
Deus, metuéndus in consílio sanctórum, * magnus et terríbilis super omnes, qui in circúitu eius sunt.
God, who is glorified in the assembly of the saints, is greater and more formidable than all those around Him.
Dómine Deus virtútum, quis símilis tibi? * Potens es, Dómine, et véritas tua in circúitu tuo.
Lord, God of hosts, who is like Thou? Thou art mighty, Lord, and Thy truth surrounds Thou.
Tu domináris supérbiæ maris, * elatiónes flúctuum eius tu mítigas.
Thou dominate the mightiness of the sea, and thou calm the movement of its waves.
Tu conculcásti sicut vulnerátum Rahab, * in bráchio virtútis tuæ dispersísti inimícos tuos.
Thou hast humbled the proud as a wounded man; Thou hast, by the strength of Thy arm, scattered Thy enemies.
Tui sunt cæli, et tua est terra, * orbem terræ et plenitúdinem eius tu fundásti.
Thine are the heavens, and thine the earth; it is Thou who founded the universe and all that it contains;
Aquilónem et austrum tu creásti, * Thabor et Hermon in nómine tuo exsultábunt.
Thou created the aquilon and the sea. Tabor and Hermon rejoice at Thy Name;
Tibi bráchium cum poténtia; * firma est manus tua, et exaltáta déxtera tua.
Thy arm is armed with power. Let Thy hand be firm, and let Thy right hand be lifted up.
Iustítia et iudícium firmaméntum sedis tuæ. * Misericórdia et véritas præcédent fáciem tuam.
Justice and equity are the support of Thy throne. Mercy and truth will walk before Thy face.
Beátus pópulus, qui scit iubilatiónem. * Dómine, in lúmine vultus tui ambulábunt
Happy are the people who know joyful acclamations. Lord, they will walk in the light of Thy countenance;
et in nómine tuo exsultábunt tota die * et in iustítia tua exaltabúntur,
they will rejoice all day long in Thy Name, and they will be exalted by Thy righteousness.
quóniam decor virtútis eórum tu es, * et in beneplácito tuo exaltábitur cornu nostrum.
For Thou art the glory of their strength, and it is on Thy goodness that our power will rise.

De libro secúndo Regum
Congregávit Bénadad rex Sýriæ univérsum exércitum suum et ascéndit et obsidébat Samaríam. Factáque est fames magna in Samária et támdiu obséssa est, donec venumdarétur caput ásini octogínta argénteis et quarta pars cabi stércoris columbárum quinque argénteis. Eliséus autem sedébat in domo sua, et senes sedébant cum eo. Præmísit ítaque rex virum. Sed ántequam veníret núntius, Eliséus dixit ad senes: "Numquid scitis quod míserit fílius homicídæ hic, ut præcidátur caput meum? Vidéte ergo, cum vénerit núntius, cláudite óstium et non sinátis eum introíre; ecce enim sónitus pedum dómini eius post eum est." Et adhuc illo loquénte eis, appáruit rex qui veniébat ad eum et ait: "Ecce, tantum malum a Dómino est; quid ámplius exspectábo a Dómino?"
Dixit Eliséus regi Israel: "Audíte verbum Dómini. Hæc dicit Dóminus: In témpore hoc cras módius símilæ uno statére erit, et duo módii hórdei statére uno in porta Samaríæ." Respóndens dux super cuius manum rex incumbébat, hómini Dei ait: "Si Dóminus fécerit étiam cataráctas in cælo, numquid póterit esse quod lóqueris?" Qui ait: "Vidébis óculis tuis et inde non cómedes."
Leprósi venérunt et vocavérunt portários civitátis et narravérunt eis dicéntes: "Ivimus ad castra Sýriæ et nullum íbidem reppérimus hóminum nisi equos et ásinos alligátos et tentória, sicut erant." Clamavérunt ergo portárii et nuntiavérunt in palátio regis intrínsecus. Qui surréxit nocte et ait ad servos suos: "Dico vobis quid fécerint nobis Syri. Sciunt quia fame laborámus, et idcírco egréssi sunt de castris et látitant in agris dicéntes: "Cum egréssi fúerint de civitáte, capiémus eos vivéntes, et tunc civitátem íngredi potérimus"."
Respóndit autem unus servórum eius: "Tollámus quinque equos qui remansérunt in urbe; fiant sicut univérsa multitúdo Israel quæ consúmpta est; mittámus ergo et videámus." Adduxérunt ergo duos currus cum equis, misítque rex post exércitum Syrórum dicens: "Ite et vidéte." Qui abiérunt post eos usque ad Iordánem; ecce autem omnis via plena erat véstibus et vasis quæ proiécerant Syri, cum turbaréntur. Reversíque núntii indicavérunt regi. Et egréssus pópulus dirípuit castra Sýriæ; factúsque est módius símilæ statére uno et duo módii hórdei statére uno iuxta verbum Dómini.
r. Muro tuo inexpugnábili circumcínge nos, Dómine, * Et armis tuæ poténtiæ prótege nos semper; líbera, Dómine, Deus Israel, clamántes ad te. v. Erue nos in mirabílibus tuis, et da glóriam nómini tuo. * Et armis. v. Glória Patri. * Et armis.

Ex Sermónibus sancti Augustíni epíscopi (Sermo 130, 2: PL 38, 726)
Convertámur ad eum qui miráculum fecit de quinque pánibus et duóbus píscibus. Ipse est panis qui de cælo descéndit; sed panis qui réficit et non déficit; panis qui sumi potest, consúmi non potest. Ipsum panem étiam manna significábat. Unde dictum est: Panem cæli dedit illis, panem angelórum manducávit homo. Quis est panis cæli, nisi Christus? Sed ut panem angelórum manducáret homo, Dóminus angelórum factus est homo. Si enim hoc non factus esset, carnem ipsíus non haberémus; si carnem ipsíus non haberémus, panem altáris non manducarémus. Festinémus ad hereditátem, quia magnum inde pignus accépimus. Fratres mei, desiderémus vitam Christi, quia tenémus pignus mortem Christi.
Quómodo nobis non dabit bona sua, qui passus est mala nostra? In terris istis, in isto sæculo malígno quid abúndat, nisi nasci, laboráre et mori? Discútite res humánas, convíncite me, si méntior: atténdite omnes hómines, utrum ad áliud sint in hoc sæculo, quam nasci, laboráre et mori. Hæc sunt mercimónia regiónis nostræ, ista hic abúndant. Ad tales merces Mercátor ille descéndit. Et quóniam omnis mercátor dat et áccipit; dat quod habet, et áccipit quod non habet; quando áliquid cómparat, dat pecúniam, et áccipit quod emit; étiam Christus in ista mercatúra dedit et accépit. Sed quid accépit? Quod hic abúndat, nasci, laboráre et mori. Et quid dedit? Renásci, resúrgere et in ætérnum regnáre.
O bone Mercátor, eme nos. Quid dicam, eme nos, cum grátias ágere debeámus quia emísti nos? Prétium nostrum érogas nobis, sánguinem tuum bíbimus; érogas ergo nobis prétium nostrum. Et Evangélium légimus, instruméntum nostrum. Servi tui sumus, creatúra tua sumus: fecísti nos, redemísti nos. Emere potest quisque servum suum, creáre non potest. Dóminus autem servos suos et creávit et redémit: creávit ut essent; redémit, ne semper captívi essent.
r. Civitátem istam tu circúmda, Dómine, et ángeli tui custódiant muros eius; * Exáudi, Dómine, pópulum tuum cum misericórdia. v. Avertátur furor tuus, Dómine, a pópulo tuo et a civitáte sancta tua. * Exáudi. v. Glória Patri. * Exáudi.
Orémus.
Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, quem, docénte Spíritu Sancto, patérno nómine invocáre præsúmimus, † pérfice in córdibus nostris spíritum adoptiónis filiórum, ut promíssam hereditátem íngredi mereámur. Per Dóminum.
Eternal and almighty God, whose paternal name we are proud to invoke, completes in our hearts the spirit of adoption of Thy children so that we may merit to enter into the inheritance that is promised unto us.
