Beátus auctor sǽculi servíle corpus índuit, ut carne carnem líberans non pérderet quod cóndidit.
Blest Author of this earthly frame, To take a servant’s form He came, That, liberating flesh by flesh, Whom He had made might live afresh.
Clausæ paréntis víscera cæléstis intrat grátia; venter puéllæ báiulat secréta quæ non nóverat.
In that chaste parent’s holy womb Celestial grace hath found its home; And she, as earthly bride unknown, Yet calls that Offspring blest her own.

The heavenly chorus filled the sky, The Angels sang to God on high, What time to shepherds, watching lone, They made creations Shepherd known.
Iesu, tibi sit glória, qui natus es de Vírgine, cum Patre et almo Spíritu, in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.
Jesus, to Thee be glory given, Whom erst the Virgin-Mother bore, With Father and with Holy Ghost, Through endless ages evermore.

Psalmus 62 (63)
Psalm 62 (63)
Anima Dominum sitiens
My soul thirsts for the Lord
Ad Deum vigilat, qui opera noctis reicit.
He who turns away from dark deeds keeps watch for God.
Deus, Deus meus es tu, * ad te de luce vígilo.
O God, my God, to thee do I watch at break of day.
Sitívit in te ánima mea, * te desiderávit caro mea.
For thee my soul hath thirsted; for thee my flesh, O how many ways!
In terra desérta et árida et inaquósa, † sic in sancto appárui tibi, * ut vidérem virtútem tuam et glóriam tuam.
In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory.
Quóniam mélior est misericórdia tua super vitas, * lábia mea laudábunt te.
For thy mercy is better than lives: thee my lips shall praise.
Sic benedícam te in vita mea * et in nómine tuo levábo manus meas.
Thus will I bless thee all my life long: and in thy name I will lift up my hands.
Sicut ádipe et pinguédine repleátur ánima mea, * et lábiis exsultatiónis laudábit os meum.
Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.
Cum memor ero tui super stratum meum, * in matutínis meditábor de te,
If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning:
quia fuísti adiútor meus, * et in velaménto alárum tuárum exsultábo.
because thou hast been my helper. And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings:
Adhæsit ánima mea post te, * me suscépit déxtera tua.
my soul hath stuck close to thee: thy right hand hath received me.
[Ipsi vero in ruínam quæsiérunt ánimam meam, * introíbunt in inferióra terræ,
[But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth:
tradéntur in potestátem gládii, * partes vúlpium erunt.
They shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.
Rex vero lætábitur in Deo; † gloriabúntur omnes, qui iúrant in eo, * quia obstrúctum est os loquéntium iníqua.]
But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.]
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.

Psalm 149
Exsultatio sanctorum
The exultation of the saints
Filii Ecclesiæ, filii novi populi exsultent in rege suo: in Christo (Hesychius).
The sons of the Church, the sons of the new people exult in their King: in Christ (Hesychius).
Cantáte Dómino cánticum novum; * laus eius in ecclésia sanctórum.
Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: let his praise be in the church of the saints.
Lætétur Israel in eo, qui fecit eum, * et fílii Sion exsúltent in rege suo.
Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king.
Laudent nomen eius in choro, * in tympano et cíthara psallant ei,
Let them praise his name in choir: let them sing to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.
quia beneplácitum est Dómino in pópulo suo, * et honorábit mansuétos in salúte.
For the Lord is well pleased with his people: and he will exalt the meek unto salvation.
Iúbilent sancti in glória, * læténtur in cubílibus suis.
The saints shall rejoice in glory: they shall be joyful in their beds.
Exaltatiónes Dei in gútture eórum * et gládii ancípites in mánibus eórum,
The high praises of God shall be in their mouth: and two-edged swords in their hands:
ad faciéndam vindíctam in natiónibus, * castigatiónes in pópulis,
To execute vengeance upon the nations, chastisements among the people:
ad alligándos reges eórum in compédibus * et nóbiles eórum in mánicis férreis,
To bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron.
ad faciéndum in eis iudícium conscríptum: * glória hæc est ómnibus sanctis eius.
To execute upon them the judgment that is written: this glory is to all his saints.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Lectio brevis (Hebr 1, 1-2)
Multifáriam et multis modis olim Deus locútus pátribus in prophétis, in novíssimis his diébus locútus est nobis in Fílio, quem constítuit herédem universórum, per quem fecit et sæcula.
God, who, at sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, last of all, In these days hath spoken to us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the world.

De Messia eiusque præcursore
The Messiah and his precursor
Benedíctus ✠ Dóminus, Deus Israel, * quia visitávit et fecit redemptiónem plebi suæ
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; because he hath visited and wrought the redemption of his people:
et eréxit cornu salútis nobis * in domo David púeri sui,
And hath raised up an horn of salvation to us, in the house of David his servant:
sicut locútus est per os sanctórum, * qui a sǽculo sunt, prophetárum eius,
As he spoke by the mouth of his holy Prophets, who are from the beginning:
salútem ex inimícis nostris * et de manu ómnium, qui odérunt nos;
Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us:
ad faciéndam misericórdiam cum pátribus nostris * et memorári testaménti sui sancti,
To perform mercy to our fathers, and to remember his holy testament,
iusiurándum, quod iurávit ad Abraham patrem nostrum, * datúrum se nobis,
The oath, which he swore to Abraham our father, that he would grant to us,
ut sine timóre, de manu inimicórum liberáti, * serviámus illi
That being delivered from the hand of our enemies, we may serve him without fear,
in sanctitáte et iustítia coram ipso * ómnibus diébus nostris.
In holiness and justice before him, all our days.
Et tu, puer, prophéta Altíssimi vocáberis: * præíbis enim ante fáciem Dómini paráre vias eius,
And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways:
ad dandam sciéntiam salútis plebi eius * in remissiónem peccatórum eórum,
To give knowledge of salvation to his people, unto the remission of their sins:
per víscera misericórdiæ Dei nostri, * in quibus visitábit nos óriens ex alto,
Through the bowels of the mercy of our God, in which the Orient from on high hath visited us:
illumináre his, qui in ténebris et in umbra mortis sedent, * ad dirigéndos pedes nostros in viam pacis.
To enlighten them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death: to direct our feet into the way of peace.
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.
