Psalmus 54 (55)

Psalm 54 (55)

Contra perfidum amicum

Against a treacherous friend

Cœpit Iesus pavere et tædere (Mc 14, 33).

Jesus began to feel frightened and anxious (Mk 14:33).

Auribus pércipe, Deus, oratiónem meam † et ne abscondáris a deprecatióne mea; * inténde mihi et exáudi me.

O God, give ear to my prayer, do not shrink from my supplications. Hearken unto me and answer me!

Excússus sum in meditatióne mea et conturbátus sum * a voce inimíci et a tribulatióne peccatóris.

I wander here and there, plaintive and groaning, before the threats of the enemy, before the oppression of the wicked!

Quóniam devolvérunt in me iniquitátem * et in ira molésti erant mihi.

For they bring calamity upon me, and they pursue me with anger.

Cor meum torquétur intra me, * et formído mortis cécidit super me.

My heart trembles within me, and upon me the terrors of death descend.

Timor et tremor venérunt super me, * et contéxit me pavor.

Fear and terror assail me, and shudder envelops me.

Et dixi: «Quis dabit mihi pennas sicut colúmbæ, * et volábo et requiéscam?

And I said: Oh! if I had the wings of the dove, I would fly away and settle in repose;

Ecce elongábo fúgiens * et manébo in solitúdine.

behold, I shall flee far away, and I shall remain in solitude.

Exspectábo eum, qui salvum me fáciat * a spíritu procéllæ et tempestáte».

I would hasten to seek an asylum, far from the rushing wind, far from the hurricane.

Díssipa, Dómine, dívide línguas eórum, * quóniam vidi violéntiam et contentiónem in civitáte.

Destroy them, O Lord, divide their tongues! For I behold violence and discord in the city.

Die ac nocte circúmeunt eam super muros eius, † iníquitas et labor et insídiæ in médio eius; * et non defécit de platéis eius frauduléntia et dolus.

Day and night they go round its ramparts; iniquity and vexation are in her midst, perversity is in her bosom, oppression and cunning do not leave her places.

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.

Quóniam si inimícus meus maledixísset mihi, * sustinuíssem útique;

For it is not an enemy that insults me: I would bear it;

et si is, qui óderat me, super me magnificátus fuísset, * abscondíssem me fórsitan ab eo.

it is not an adversary who rises up against me: I would hide myself before him.

Tu vero, homo coæquális meus, * familiáris meus et notus meus,

But thou wast another me, my confidant and my friend.

qui simul habúimus dulce consórtium: * in domo Dei ambulávimus in concúrsu.

We lived together in sweet intimacy, we went with the crowd unto the house of God.

[Véniat mors super illos, et descéndant in inférnum vivéntes,

[May death surprise them, let them descend alive to Sheol!

quóniam nequítiæ in habitáculis eórum, in médio eórum. ]

For wickedness is in their dwelling, in their midst.]

III

Ego autem ad Deum clamábo, * et Dóminus salvábit me.

As for me, I cry out to God, and the Lord will save me.

Véspere et mane et merídie meditábor et ingemíscam, * et exáudiet vocem meam.

In the evening, in the morning, in the middle of the day, I complain, I groan, and He shall hearken my voice.

Rédimet in pace ánimam meam ab his, qui impúgnant me, * quóniam in multis sunt advérsum me.

He shall deliver my soul in peace from the battle that is being waged against me, for there are many who are waging war against me.

Exáudiet Deus et humiliábit illos, * qui est ante sǽcula.

God will hearken, and He shall humble them, He who is before the ages.

Non enim est illis commutátio, * et non timuérunt Deum.

For there is no change in them, and they have not the fear of God.

Exténdit manum suam in sócios; * contaminávit fœdus suum.

he lays his hand on those who were at peace with Him, he violates His covenant.

Lene super butyrum est os eius, * pugna autem cor illíus:

From his mouth come words sweet as milk, and war is in his heart.

mollíti sunt sermónes eius super óleum, * et ipsi sunt gládii destrícti.

His speeches are smoother than oil, but they are naked swords.

Iacta super Dóminum curam tuam, † et ipse te enútriet; * non dabit in ætérnum fluctuatiónem iusto.

Commit thy lot unto the Lord, and He shall sustain thou; He shall not let the righteous forevermore totter.

Tu vero, Deus, dedúces eos * in púteum intéritus.

And Thou, O God, will bring them down into the pit of perdition;

Viri sánguinum et dolósi non dimidiábunt dies suos; * ego autem sperábo in te, Dómine.

men of blood and cunning will not behold half their days; for my part, I put my trust in Thou.

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.

De libro Ieremíæ prophétæ

Verbum quod factum est ad Ieremíam a Dómino dicens: "Sta in porta domus Dómini et prædica ibi verbum istud et dic: Audíte verbum Dómini, omnis Iuda, qui ingredímini per portas has, ut adorétis Dóminum."

"Hæc dicit Dóminus exercítuum, Deus Israel: Bonas fácite vias vestras et ópera vestra, et habitáre vos fáciam in loco isto. Nolíte confídere in verbis mendácii dicéntes: "Templum Dómini, templum Dómini, templum Dómini est." Quóniam, si bene direxéritis vias vestras et ópera vestra, si fecéritis iudícium inter virum et próximum eius, ádvenæ et pupíllo et víduæ non fecéritis calúmniam nec sánguinem innocéntem effudéritis in loco hoc et post deos aliénos non ambulavéritis in malum vobismetípsis, habitáre vos fáciam in loco isto, in terra quam dedi pátribus vestris a sæculo usque in sæculum."

"Ite ad locum meum in Silo, ubi habitávit nomen meum a princípio, et vidéte quæ fécerim ei propter malítiam pópuli mei Israel. Et nunc, quia fecístis ómnia ópera hæc, dicit Dóminus, et locútus sum ad vos mane consúrgens et loquens, et non audístis, et vocávi vos, et non respondístis, fáciam dómui huic, super quam invocátum est nomen meum et in qua vos habétis fidúciam, et loco quem dedi vobis et pátribus vestris, sicut feci Silo; et proíciam vos a fácie mea, sicut proiéci omnes fratres vestros, univérsum semen Ephraim."

"Tu ergo, noli oráre pro pópulo hoc, nec assúmas pro eis deprecatiónem et oratiónem et non obsístas mihi, quia non exáudiam te. Nonne vides quid isti fáciant in civitátibus Iudæ et in platéis Ierúsalem? Fílii cólligunt ligna, et patres succéndunt ignem, et mulíeres commíscent farínam, ut fáciant placéntas regínæ cæli et libent diis aliénis, ut me ad iracúndiam próvocent. Numquid me ad iracúndiam próvocant, dicit Dóminus, nonne semetípsos in confusiónem vultus sui? Ideo hæc dicit Dóminus Deus: Ecce furor meus et indignátio mea effúnditur super locum istum, super hómines et super iuménta et super lignum regiónis et super fruges terræ et succendétur et non exstinguétur."

r. Dóminus mecum est tamquam bellátor fortis; proptérea persecúti sunt me, * Et intellégere non potuérunt. Dómine, probans renes et corda, tibi revelávi causam meam. v. Tu autem, Dómine Sábaoth, qui iúdicas iuste et probas renes et corda, vídeam, quæso, ultiónem tuam ex eis. * Et intellégere. v. Glória Patri. * Et intellégere.

In secundo nocturno, anno I)

Ex Epístula sancti Ignátii Antiochéni epíscopi et mártyris ad Romános (Nn. 4.6-7: Funk 1, 257.259-261)

Ego ómnibus Ecclésiis scribo omnibúsque mando quod lubens pro Deo móriar, síquidem vos me non impediátis. Obsecro vos, ne intempestívam mihi bene voléntiam exhibeátis. Sínite me, ferárum cibum esse, per quas Deum cónsequi licet. Fruméntum sum Dei et per ferárum dentes molar, ut purus panis Christi invéniar. Feris pótius blandímini ut mihi sepúlcrum fiant nihílque mei córporis relínquant, ne, postquam obdormíero, gravis alícui fiam. Tunc vere Iesu Christi discípulus ero, cum neque corpus meum mundus vidébit. Christum pro me supplicáte ut per hæc instruménta Deo hóstia invéniar.

Nihil mihi prodérunt mundi voluptátes neque huius sæculi regna. Præstat mihi in Christo Iesu mori, quam fínibus terræ imperáre. Illum quæro, qui pro nobis mórtuus est; illum volo, qui propter nos resurréxit. Partus mihi instat. Ignóscite mihi, fratres. Ne me vívere impediátis, ne velítis me mori; me, Dei esse cupiéntem, mundo ne tradátis neque per matériam me seducátis; sínite me purum lumen percípere; ubi illuc advénero, homo ero. Concédite mihi imitatórem esse passiónis Dei mei. Si quis illum in seípso habet, intéllegat quid velim, et commisereátur mei, sciens quæ me coárctent.

Princeps huius sæculi rápere me vult meámque erga Deum voluntátem corrúmpere. Nemo ergo vestrum, qui adéstis, illum ádiuvet; mei pótius, id est Dei, efficiámini. Ne loquámini Iesum Christum, dum mundum concupíscitis. Invídia in vobis ne hábitet. Neque si ego præsens vos orárem, credátis mihi; his pótius quæ vobis scribo, credátis. Vivens enim scribo vobis, mori desíderans. Amor meus crucifíxus est, nec est in me ignis matériæ amans; sed vivens et loquens aqua in me est, mihi intérius dicens: "Veni ad Patrem." Non deléctor aliménto corruptíbili neque voluptátibus huius mundi. Panem Dei volo, qui est caro Iesu Christi, qui ex sémine David factus est, et potum volo sánguinem ipsíus, qui est cáritas incorruptíbilis.

r. Coróna áurea super caput eius, expréssa signo sanctitátis, * Glória honóris et opus fortitúdinis. v. Quóniam praevenísti eum in benedictiónibus dulcédinis, posuísti in cápite eius corónam de lápide pretióso. * Glória. v. Glória Patri. * Glória.

Orémus.

Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui sanctórum mártyrum confessiónibus Ecclésiæ tuæ sacrum corpus exórnas, † concéde, quǽsumus, ut hodiérna glória passiónis, sicut beáto Ignátio magnificéntiam tríbuit sempitérnam, ita nobis perpétuum munímen operétur. Per Dóminum.

Almighty eternal God, who adorns the sacred body of Your Church with the confession of the holy martyrs, grant, we beseech You, that the present glory of the Passion, eternally conferred by the magnificence of Blessed Ignatius, may thus cover us with a perpetual rampart.
