Hymnus
Sol ecce surgit ígneus: piget, pudéscit, pænitet, nec teste quisquam lúmine peccáre constánter potest.
Tandem facéssat cǽcitas, quæ nosmet in præceps diu lapsos sinístris gréssibus erróre traxit dévio.
Hæc lux serénum cónferat purósque nos præstet sibi; nihil loquámur súbdolum, volvámus obscúrum nihil.
From false words and thoughts impure Let this Light, serene and sure, Keep our lips without secure, Keep our souls within.
Sic tota decúrrat dies, ne lingua mendax, ne manus oculíve peccent lúbrici, ne noxa corpus ínquinet.
So may we the day-time spend, That, till life’s temptations end, Tongue, nor hand, nor eye offend! One, above us all,
Speculátor astat désuper, qui nos diébus ómnibus actúsque nostros próspicit a luce prima in vésperum.
Views in His revealing ray All we do, and think, and say, Watching us from break of day Till the twilight fall.
Deo Patri sit glória eiúsque soli Fílio cum Spíritu Paráclito, in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.
To God the Father glory be And glory to his only Son And to the Spirit Paraclete Forevermore while ages run.

Anima mea recúmbit in médio catulórum leónum * devorántium fílios hóminum.

Iesus moriturus erat ... ut filios Dei, qui erant dispersi, congregaret in unum(Io 11, 51. 52).
Jesus had to die... in order to reunite in one body the scattered children of God (Io 11, 51. 52).
Audíte verbum Dómini, gentes, *et annuntiáte in ínsulis, quæ procul sunt,
et dícite:«Qui dispérsit Israel, congregábit eum * et custódiet eum sicut pastor gregem suum».
Redémit enim Dóminus Iacob * et liberávit eum de manu potentióris.
Et vénient et laudábunt in monte Sion *et cónfluent ad bona Dómini, super fruménto et vino et óleo * et fetu pécorum et armentórum;
erítque ánima eórum quasi hortus irríguus, *et ultra non esúrient.
Tunc lætábitur virgo in choro, * iúvenes et senes simul.
«Et convértam luctum eórum in gáudium *et consolábor eos et lætificábo a dolóre suo.
Et inebriábo ánimam sacerdótum pinguédine, *et pópulus meus bonis meis adimplébitur».

Sustulit me in spiritu super montem magnum... et ostendit mihi civitatem sanctam Ierusalem (Ap 21,10).
He took me in the Spirit to a great mountain... And he showed me the holy city, Jerusalem (Rev 21:10).

Mons sanctus eius collis speciósus, * exsultátio univérsæ terræ.
Mons Sion, extréma aquilónis, * cívitas regis magni.
Deus in dómibus eius notus * factus est ut refúgium.
Quóniam ecce reges congregáti sunt, * convenérunt in unum.
Ipsi cum vidérunt, sic admiráti sunt, * conturbáti sunt, diffugérunt;
illic tremor apprehéndit eos, * dolóres ut parturiéntis.
In spíritu oriéntis * cónteres naves Tharsis.
Sicut audívimus, sic vídimus in civitáte Dómini virtútum, † in civitáte Dei nostri; * Deus fundávit eam in ætérnum.
Recogitámus, Deus, misericórdiam tuam * in médio templi tui.
Secúndum nomen tuum, Deus, † sic et laus tua in fines terræ; * iustítia plena est déxtera tua.
Lætétur mons Sion, † et exsúltent fíliæ Iudæ * propter iudícia tua.
Circúmdate Sion et complectímini eam, * numeráte turres eius.
Pónite corda vestra in virtúte eius † et percúrrite domos eius, * ut enarrétis in progénie áltera.
Quóniam hic est Deus, Deus noster † in ætérnum et in sǽculum sǽculi; * ipse ducet nos in sǽcula.

Lectio brevis (Is 66, 1-2)
Hæc dicit Dóminus: Cælum thronus meus, terra autem scabéllum pedum meórum. Quæ ista domus, quam ædificábitis mihi, et quis iste locus quiétis meæ? Omnia hæc manus mea fecit et mea sunt univérsa ista, dicit Dóminus. Ad hunc autem respíciam, ad paupérculum et contrítum spíritu et treméntem sermónes meos.
Thus says the Lord: Heaven is My throne and earth is the footstool of My feet. What kind of house would you build for Me? Where would be My resting place? Moreover, all these beings, it is My hand that made them and they are Mine - says the Lord. It is to this one that I look: to the humble one, the one whose spirit is downcast, and who trembles at My word.
