Super flumina Babylonis

By the rivers of Babylon

Hanc corporalem populi captivitatem referre in exemplum spiritalis captivitatis oportet (S. Hilarius ).

We must take the corporal captivity of the people as an image of their spiritual captivity. (S. Hilaire).

Super flúmina Babylónis, illic sédimus et flévimus, *cum recordarémur Sion.

Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion:

In salícibus in médio eius *suspéndimus cítharas nostras.

On the willows in the midst thereof we hung up our instruments.

Quia illic rogavérunt nos, qui captívos duxérunt nos, *verba cantiónum

For there they that led us into captivity required of us the words of songs.

et, qui affligébant nos, lætítiam: *«Cantáte nobis de cánticis Sion» .

And they that carried us away, said: Sing ye to us a hymn of the songs of Sion.

Quómodo cantábimus cánticum Dómini *in terra aliéna?

How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a strange land?

Si oblítus fúero tui, Ierúsalem, *oblivióni detur déxtera mea;

If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.

adhæreat língua mea fáucibus meis, *si non memínero tui,

Let my tongue cleave to my jaws, if I do not remember thee:

si non præposúero Ierúsalem *in cápite lætítiæ meæ.

If I make not Jerusalem the beginning of my joy.

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord.

quóniam excélsus Dóminus, † et húmilem réspicit, *et supérbum a longe cognóscit.

For the Lord is high, and looketh on the low: and the high he knoweth afar off.

Si ambulávero in médio tribulatiónis, vivificábis me; † et contra iram inimicórum meórum exténdes manum tuam, *et salvum me fáciet déxtera tua.

If I shall walk in the midst of tribulation, thou wilt quicken me: and thou hast stretched forth thy hand against the wrath of my enemies: and thy right hand hath saved me.

Dóminus perfíciet pro me; Dómine, misericórdia tua in sǽculum: *ópera mánuum tuárum ne despícias.

For Thou wast slain, redeeming for God, at the price of Thy blood, men of every tribe, language, people, and nation.

et fecísti eos Deo nostro regnum et sacerdótes, * et regnábunt super terram.

Thou hast made us a kingdom and priests for our God, and we will reign on earth.

It is worthy, the slain Lamb, to receive power and riches, wisdom and strength, honor, glory and praise.

Lectio brevis (1 Petr 4, 13-14)

Caríssimi, quemádmodum communicátis Christi passiónibus, gaudéte, ut et in revelatióne glóriæ eius gaudeátis exsultántes. Si exprobrámini in nómine Christi, beáti, quóniam Spíritus glóriæ et Dei super vos requiéscit.

But if you partake of the sufferings of Christ, rejoice that when his glory shall be revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. If you be reproached for the name of Christ, you shall be blessed: for that which is of the honour, glory, and power of God, and that which is his Spirit, resteth upon you.
