Iúdica, Dómine, iudicántes me; * impúgna impugnántes me.
Judge, Lord, those who do me harm; fight those who fight me.
Apprehénde clípeum et scutum † et exsúrge in adiutórium mihi. * Dic ánimæ meæ: "Salus tua ego sum."
Take up Thy weapons and Thy shield, and arise to help me. Say to my soul, I am thy salvation.

But my soul will rejoice in the Lord, and delight in his Saviour.

All my bones will say: * Lord, who is like Thou,

who snatch the poor from the hands of those who are stronger than him; the needy and the poor to those who despoil him?

Iniquitous witnesses have risen; They asked me about what I didn't know.

They have not returned evil for good; it was sterility for my soul.

Ego autem, cum infirmaréntur, * induébar cilício,
But when they tormented me, I put on a haircloth.
humiliábam in ieiúnio ánimam meam, * et orátio mea in sinu meo convertebátur.
I humbled my soul by fasting, and my prayer returned to my bosom.
Quasi pro próximo et quasi pro fratre meo ambulábam, * quasi lugens matrem contristátus incurvábar.
I had the same compassion for them as I did for a relative or a brother; I bent down as if in mourning and sadness.
Cum autem vacillárem, lætáti sunt et convenérunt; * convenérunt contra me percutiéntes, et ignorávi.
And they rejoiced, and gathered together against me; misfortunes have come upon me, without my knowing the reason.
Diripuérunt et non desistébant; † tentavérunt me, subsannavérunt me subsannatióne, * frenduérunt super me déntibus suis.
They have been dispersed; but, without compunction, they have anon put me unto the test; they have overwhelmed me with insults; They gnashed their teeth at me.

Dómine, quámdiu aspícies? † Restítue ánimam meam a malignitáte eórum, * a leónibus únicam meam.
Lord, when will Thou behold? Save my soul from their malignity; snatch my only from these lions.

I will praise Thou in a great assembly; I will praise Thee in the midst of a many people.

Arise and take care of my right; my God and my Lord, defend my cause.
Exsúltent et læténtur, qui volunt iustítiam meam, * et dicant semper: «Magnificétur Dóminus, qui vult pacem servi sui».
Let them be glad and glad that they want my justification; and let them say without ceasing, Glory unto the Lord, those who desire the peace of His servant.
Et lingua mea meditábitur iustítiam tuam, * tota die laudem tuam.
And my tongue will praise Thy righteousness, and Thy praise all day long.

De Epístula beáti Pauli apóstoli ad Ephésios
Fratres: Confortámini in Dómino et in poténtia virtútis eius. Indúite armatúram Dei, ut possítis stare advérsus insídias Diáboli. Quia non est nobis colluctátio advérsus sánguinem et carnem sed advérsus principátus, advérsus potestátes, advérsus mundi rectóres tenebrárum harum, advérsus spiritália nequítiæ in cæléstibus. Proptérea accípite armatúram Dei, ut possítis resístere in die malo et, ómnibus perféctis, stare.
State ergo succíncti lumbos vestros in veritáte et indúti lorícam iustítiæ et calceáti pedes in præparatióne evangélii pacis, in ómnibus suméntes scutum fídei, in quo possítis ómnia tela Malígni ígnea exstínguere; et gáleam salútis assúmite et gládium Spíritus, quod est verbum Dei, per omnem oratiónem et obsecratiónem orántes omni témpore in Spíritu, et in ipso vigilántes in omni instántia et obsecratióne pro ómnibus sanctis et pro me, ut detur mihi sermo in aperitióne oris mei cum fidúcia notum fácere mystérium evangélii, pro quo legatióne fungor in caténa, ut in ipso áudeam, prout opórtet me loqui.
Ut autem et vos sciátis, quæ circa me sunt, quid agam, ómnia nota vobis fáciet Týchicus, caríssimus frater et fidélis miníster in Dómino, quem misi ad vos in hoc ipsum, ut cognoscátis, quæ circa nos sunt, et consolétur corda vestra. Pax frátribus et cáritas cum fide a Deo Patre et Dómino Iesu Christo. Grátia cum ómnibus, qui díligunt Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum in incorruptióne.
r. Confitébor tibi, Dómine Deus, in toto corde meo, et honorificábo nomen tuum in ætérnum, * Quia misericórdia tua, Dómine, magna est super me. v. Et eripuísti ánimam meam ex inférno inferióri, * Quia. v. Glória Patri. * Quia.
 
 
 
Orémus.
Deus, qui beátum Ioánnem Baptístam et nascéntis et moriéntis Fílii tui Præcursórem esse voluísti, †concéde, ut, sicut ille veritátis et iustítiæ martyr occúbuit, ita et nos pro tuæ confessióne doctrínæ strénue certémus. Per Dóminum.
O God, who willed that St. John the Baptist should be the Forerunner of Thy Son in his birth as well as in his death; just as he fell as a martyr for truth and righteousness, make us also fight with courage to proclaim what thou hast taught us.
