VII (Zain)
Memor esto verbi tui servo tuo, * in quo mihi spem dedísti.
Be thou mindful of thy word to thy servant, in which thou hast given me hope.
Hoc me consolátum est in humiliatióne mea, * quia elóquium tuum vivificávit me.
This hath comforted me in my humiliation: because thy word hath enlivened me.
Supérbi derisérunt me veheménter; * a lege autem tua non declinávi.
The proud did iniquitously altogether: but I declined not from thy law.
Memor fui iudiciórum tuórum a sæculo, Dómine, * et consolátus sum.
I remembered, O Lord, thy judgments of old: and I was comforted.
Indignátio ténuit me * propter peccatóres derelinquéntes legem tuam.
A fainting hath taken hold of me, because of the wicked that forsake thy law.
Cántica factæ sunt mihi iustificatiónes tuæ * in loco peregrinatiónis meæ.
Thy justifications were the subject of my song, in the place of my pilgrimage.
Memor fui nocte nóminis tui, Dómine, * et custódiam legem tuam.
In the night I have remembered thy name, O Lord: and have kept thy law.
Hoc factum est mihi, * quia mandáta tua servávi.
This happened to me: because I sought after thy justifications.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Impiorum stultitia
Defeat of the godless
Omnes peccaverunt et egent gloria Dei (Rom 3, 23).
All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Rom 3:23).
Dixit insípiens in corde suo: «Non est Deus». † Corrúpti sunt et abominatiónes operáti sunt; * non est qui fáciat bonum.
Deus de cælo prospéxit super fílios hóminum, * ut vídeat si est intéllegens aut requírens Deum.
Omnes declinavérunt, simul corrúpti sunt; * non est qui fáciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.
Nonne scient omnes, qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?
Deum non invocavérunt; * illic trepidavérunt timóre, et non erat timor.
Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum, qui te obsidébant * confúsi sunt, quóniám Deus sprevit eos.
Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israel? † Cum convérterit Deus captivitátem plebis suæ, * exsultábit Iacob et lætábitur Israel.
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.

Imploratio auxilii

Orat propheta, ut in nomine Domini a persequentium malignitate liberetur (Cassiodorus).
The prophet prays to be delivered in the name of the Lord from the malice of his persecutors (Cassiodorus).
Deus, in nómine tuo salvum me fac * et in virtúte tua iúdica me.
Deus, exáudi oratiónem meam, * áuribus pércipe verba oris mei!
Quóniam supérbi insurrexérunt advérsum me, † et fortes quæsiérunt ánimam meam * et non proposuérunt Deum ante conspéctum suum.
Ecce enim Deus ádiuvat me, * et Dóminus suscéptor est ánimæ meæ.
[Convérte mala super inimícos meos * et in veritáte tua dispérde illos.]
Voluntárie sacrificábo tibi, * confitébor nómini tuo, Dómine, quóniam bonum est;
quóniam ex omni tribulatióne erípuit me, * et super inimícos meos despéxit óculus meus.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Lectio brevis (1 Cor 12, 12-13)
Sicut corpus unum est et membra habet multa, ómnia autem membra córporis, cum sint multa, unum corpus sunt, ita et Christus; étenim in uno Spíritu omnes nos in unum corpus baptizáti sumus sive Iudæi sive Græci sive servi sive líberi, et omnes unum Spíritum potáti sumus.
For as the body is one, and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body, so also is Christ. For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free; and in one Spirit we have all been made to drink.
v. Pater sancte, serva nos in nómine tuo. r. Ut simus consummáti in unum.
Orémus.
Postea dicitur immediate et sine orémus oratio propria, cum conclusione longiore.
Deus, qui beáto Hierónymo presbýtero suávem et vivum Scriptúræ Sacræ afféctum tribuísti,† da, ut pópulus tuus verbo tuo ubérius alátur, et in eo fontem vitæ invéniat. Per Dóminum.
Dóminus vobíscum.
r. Et cum spíritu tuo.
Benedícat vos omnípotens Deus, Pater, ✠ et Fílius, et Spíritus Sanctus.
r. Amen.
Vel alia formula benedictionis, sicut in Missa.
Et si fit dimissio, sequitur invitatio:
Absente sacerdote vel diacono, et in recitatione a solo, sic concluditur:
Dóminus nos benedícat, et ab omni malo deféndat, et ad vitam perdúcat ætérnam. r. Amen.
