Magnis prophétæ vócibus veníre Christum núntiant, lætæ salútis prævia, qua nos redémit, grátia.

With mighty voice the prophets cry: “The coming of the Christ is nigh!” His path made straight by saving grace Through which he has redeemed our race.

Hinc mane nostrum prómicat et corda læta exæstuant, cum vox fidélis pérsonat prænuntiátrix glóriæ.

So, here our morning glimmers bright, And hearts brim over with delight At hearing such a voice resound Which heralds glory all around.

Advéntus hic primus fuit, puníre quo non sæculum venit, sed ulcus térgere, salvándo quod períerat.

This Advent was his sacred birth; He did not come to doom the earth, But rather wounds to bind and mend By saving what was lost through sin.

At nos secúndus præmonet adésse Christum iánuis, sanctis corónas réddere cælíque regna pándere.

The second Advent we await When Christ will stand before the gate To open heaven's blest domain And crown the saints to share his reign.

Ætérna lux promíttitur sidúsque salvans prómitur; iam nos iubar præfúlgidum ad ius vocat cæléstium.

Eternal splendor is made known; The saving star has clearly shone. Already heaven's brilliant light Is calling us to what is right.

Te, Christe, solum quǽrimus vidére, sicut es Deus, ut perpes hæc sit vísio perénne laudis cánticum. Amen.

You, Christ, alone we strive to see, Resplendent in divinity; Give us this vision all our days, And grant an endless song of praise.

Infirmi oratio

Prayer for the infirm

Unus ex vobis me tradet, qui manducat mecum (Mc 14, 18).

One of you will betray Me, the one who eats with Me (Mk 14:18).

Beátus, qui intéllegit de egéno, * in die mala liberábit eum Dóminus.

Blessed is he who cares for the poor, in the day of trouble the Lord will deliver him.

Dóminus servábit eum et vivificábit eum † et beátum fáciet eum in terra * et non tradet eum in ánimam inimicórum eius.

The Lord will keep him and make him live; he shall be happy on earth, and will not be given over unto the desire of his enemies.

Dóminus opem feret illi super lectum dolóris eius; * univérsum stratum eius versábis in infirmitáte eius.

The Lord will assist him on his bed of pain; Thou shalt turn all his bed over in his sickness.

Ego dixi: «Dómine, miserére mei; * sana ánimam meam, quia peccávi tibi».

I said, "Lord, have mercy on me; heal my soul, for I have sinned against Thou."

Inimíci mei dixérunt mala mihi: * «Quando moriétur, et períbit nomen eius?».

And my enemies curse me: "When will he die, when will his name perish?"

Et si ingrediebátur, ut visitáret, vana loquebátur; † cor eius congregábat iniquitátem sibi, * egrediebátur foras et detrahébat.

If anyone comes to visit me, he utters naught but lies; his heart gathers iniquity; when he goeth away, he speaketh outside.

Simul advérsum me susurrábant omnes inimíci mei; * advérsum me cogitábant mala mihi:

All my enemies whisper together against me, against me they meditate misfortune.

«Malefícium effúsum est in eo; * et, qui decúmbit, non adíciet ut resúrgat».

"An irremediable evil," they say, "has fallen upon him, here he lies down, he shall never rise anon."

Sed et homo pacis meæ, in quo sperávi, * qui edébat panem meum, levávit contra me calcáneum.

Even the man who was my friend, who had my confidence, and who ate my bread, raises his heel against me.

Tu autem, Dómine, miserére mei * et resúscita me, et retríbuam eis.

Thou, Lord, have mercy on me and raise me up, and I will give them back what they deserve.

In hoc cognóvi quóniam voluísti me, * quia non gaudébit inimícus meus super me;

I will know that Thou lovest me, if my enemy does not triumph over me;

me autem propter innocéntiam suscepísti * et statuísti me in conspéctu tuo in ætérnum.

Forasmuch as of my innocence, Thou hast sustained me, and Thou hast established me forevermore in Thy presence.

Benedíctus Dóminus Deus Israel * a sǽculo et usque in sǽculum. Fiat, fiat.

Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, forevermore and ever. Amen, amen.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Vacáte et vidéte quóniam ego sum Deus: * exaltábor in géntibus et exaltábor in terra.
