Gratiarum actio

Thanksgiving

Beati pauperes, quia vestrum est regnum Dei. (Lc 6, 20)

Blessed are the poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

Ut quid, Dómine, stas a longe, * abscóndis te in opportunitátibus, in tribulatióne?

Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?

Dum supérbit, ímpius inséquitur páuperem; * comprehendántur in consíliis, quæ cógitant.

Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise.

Quóniam gloriátur peccátor in desidériis ánimæ suæ, * et avárus sibi benedícit.

For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed.

Spernit Dóminum peccátor in arrogántia sua: * Non requíret, non est Deus."

The sinner hath provoked the Lord, according to the multitude of his wrath he will not seek him:

Hæ sunt omnes cogitatiónes eius; * prosperántur viæ illíus in omni témpore.

God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times.

Excélsa nimis iudícia tua a fácie eius; * omnes inimícos suos aspernátur.

Thy judgments are removed from his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies.

Dixit enim in corde suo: « Non movébor, * in generatiónem et generatiónem ero sine malo ».

For he hath said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.

Cuius maledictióne os plenum est et frauduléntia et dolo, * sub lingua eius labor et nequítia.

His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.

Sedet in insídiis ad vicos, * in occúltis intérficit innocéntem.

He sitteth in ambush with the rich in private places, that he may kill the innocent.

Oculi eius in páuperem respíciunt. * Insidiátur in abscóndito quasi leo in spelúnca sua.

His eyes are upon the poor man: he lieth in wait in secret like a lion in his den.

Insidiátur, ut rápiat páuperem; * rapit páuperem, dum áttrahit in láqueum suum.

He lieth in ambush that he may catch the poor man: to catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.

Irruit et inclínat se, et míseri cadunt * in fortitúdine brachiórum eius.

In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.

Dixit enim in corde suo: « Oblítus est Deus; * avértit fáciem suam, non vidébit in finem ».

For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face, not to see to the end.

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.

Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.

Propter quid spernit ímpius Deum? * Dixit enim in corde suo: "Non requíres".

Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.

Vidísti: † tu labórem et dolórem consíderas, * ut tradas eos in manus tuas.

Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands.

Tibi derelíctus est pauper, * órphano tu factus es adiútor.

To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.

Cóntere bráchium peccatóris et malígni; * quæres peccátum illíus et non invénies.

Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.

Dóminus rex in ætérnum et in sǽculum sǽculi: * periérunt gentes de terra illíus.

The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.

Desidérium páuperum exaudísti, Dómine; * confirmábis cor eórum, inténdes aurem tuam

The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.

iudicáre pupíllo et húmili, * ut non appónat ultra indúcere timórem homo de terra.

To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.

Invocatio contra superbos

Invocation against the superb

Propter nos pauperes Pater Filium dignatus est mittere. (S. Augustinus)

For us poor, the Father deigned to send His Son (S. Augustine)

Salvum me fac, Dómine, quóniam defécit sanctus, * quóniam deminúti sunt fidéles a fíliis hóminum.

Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: truths are decayed from among the children of men.

Vana locúti sunt unusquísque ad próximum suum; * in lábiis dolósis, in dúplici corde locúti sunt.

They have spoken vain things every one to his neighbour: with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.

Dispérdat Dóminus univérsa lábia dolósa * et linguam magníloquam.

May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things.

Qui dixérunt: "Lingua nostra magnificábimur, † lábia nostra a nobis sunt; * quis noster dóminus est?"

Who have said: We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own; who is Lord over us?

"Propter misériam ínopum et gémitum páuperum, † nunc exsúrgam, dicit Dóminus; * ponam in salutári illum, quem despíciunt."

By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, now will I arise, saith the Lord. I will set him in safety; I will deal confidently in his regard.

Elóquia Dómini elóquia casta, * argéntum igne examinátum, separátum a terra, purgátum séptuplum.

The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth, refined seven times.

Tu, Dómine, servábis nos et custódies nos * a generatióne hac in ætérnum.

Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us: and keep us from this generation for ever.

In circúitu ímpii ámbulant, * a cum exaltántur sordes inter fílios hóminum.

The wicked walk round about: according to thy highness, thou hast multiplied the children of men.

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 Epístula prima beáti Pauli apóstoli ad Corínthios

Fratres: De virgínibus præcéptum Dómini non hábeo, consílium autem do, tamquam misericórdiam consecútus a Dómino ut sim fidélis. Exístimo ergo hoc bonum esse propter instántem necessitátem, quóniam bonum est hómini sic esse. Alligátus es uxóri? Noli quærere solutiónem. Solútus es ab uxóre? Noli quærere uxórem. Si autem accéperis uxórem, non peccásti; et si núpserit virgo, non peccávit. Tribulatiónem tamen carnis habébunt huiúsmodi, ego autem vobis parco.

Hoc ítaque dico, fratres, tempus breviátum est; relíquum est ut et qui habent uxóres, tamquam non habéntes sint, et qui flent, tamquam non flentes, et qui gaudent, tamquam non gaudéntes, et qui emunt, tamquam non possidéntes, et qui utúntur hoc mundo tamquam non abuténtes; præterit enim figúra huius mundi. Volo autem vos sine sollicitúdine esse. Qui sine uxóre est, sollícitus est quæ Dómini sunt, quómodo pláceat Dómino; qui autem cum uxóre est, sollícitus est quæ sunt mundi, quómodo pláceat uxóri, et divísus est. Et múlier innúpta et virgo cógitat quæ Dómini sunt, ut sit sancta et córpore et spíritu; quæ autem nupta est, cógitat quæ sunt mundi, quómodo pláceat viro. Porro hoc ad utilitátem vestram dico, non ut láqueum vobis iníciam, sed ad id quod honéstum est et ut assídue cum Dómino sitis sine distractióne.

Si quis autem turpem se vidéri exístimat super vírgine sua quod sit superadúlta, et ita opórtet fíeri, quod vult fáciat; non peccat: nubant. Qui autem státuit in corde suo firmus, non habens necessitátem, potestátem autem habet suæ voluntátis, et hoc iudicávit in corde suo serváre vírginem suam, bene faciet; ígitur et qui matrimónio iungit vírginem suam, bene facit; et qui non iungit, mélius fáciet.

Mulier alligáta est quanto témpore vir eius vivit; quod si dormíerit vir eius, líbera est, cui vult núbere, tantum in Dómino. Beátior autem erit si sic permánserit, secúndum meum consílium; puto autem quod et ego Spíritum Dei hábeo.

r. Cumque sanctus Benedíctus in cella consísteret, elevátis sursum óculis, vidit soróris suæ ánimam, de córpore eius egréssam, * In colúmbæ spécie cæli secréta penetráre. v. Qui tantæ eius glóriæ congáudens, omnipoténti Deo grátias réferens, eius óbitum frátribus denuntiávit. * In colúmbæ spécie. v. Glória Patri. * In colúmbæ spécie.

In secundo nocturno, anno II

Ex Tractátu sancti Augustíni epíscopi De Trinitáte (Lib. 8, 11-12: CCL 50, 285-287)

Non sanctus quisquam potestáte sua gaudet, sed eius a quo habet posse quidquid congruénter potest; et novit poténtius esse coniúngi Omnipoténti pia voluntáte quam própria voluntáte posse, quod contremíscant qui tália non possunt. Itaque ipse Dóminus Iesus Christus tália fáciens, ut mirántes docéret amplióra, et temporálibus insólitis inténtos atque suspénsos ad ætérna atque interióra convérteret: Veníte, inquit, ad me, omnes qui laborátis et oneráti estis, et ego vos refíciam vos; tóllite iugum meum super vos.

Et non dixit: " Díscite a me quia quatriduános mórtuos súscito "; sed ait: Díscite a me quia mitis sum et húmilis corde. Poténtior est enim et tútior solidíssima humílitas quam ventosíssima celsitúdo. Et ídeo séquitur dicens: Et inveniétis réquiem animábus vestris. Diléctio enim non inflátur, et: Deus diléctio est, et: Fidéles in dilectióne acquiéscunt illi, revocáti a strépitu qui foris est ad gáudia siléntia. Ecce Deus diléctio est: utquid imus et cúrrimus in sublímia cælórum et ima terrárum, quæréntes eum qui est apud nos, si nos esse velímus apud eum?

Nemo dicat: " Non novi quid díligam. " Díligat fratrem, et díliget eámdem dilectiónem. Magis enim novit dilectiónem qua díligit, quam fratrem quem díligit. Ecce iam potest notiórem Deum habére quam fratrem: plane notiórem, quia præsentiórem; notiórem, quia interiórem; notiórem, quia certiórem. Ampléctere dilectiónem Deum, et dilectióne ampléctere Deum.

Ipsa est diléctio quæ omnes bonos ángelos et omnes Dei servos consóciat vínculo sanctitátis, nosque et illos coniúngit ínvicem nobis, et subiúngit sibi. Quanto ígitur sanióres sumus a tumóre supérbiæ, tanto sumus dilectióne plenióres; et quo, nisi Deo plenus est, qui plenus est dilectióne?

r. Post tríduum ígitur sanctus Pater in cella consístens vidit soróris ánimam de córpore egréssam, in spécie cándidæ colúmbæ penetráre cælum, qui glóriæ eius tantæ congáudens * In hymnis et láudibus Omnipoténti grates magnas réddidit et eius óbitum frátribus denuntiávit. v. Tunc vir Dei, missis núntiis qui vírginis deférrent corpúsculum almum in sepúlcro próprio humándum, ínterim totus in víscera pietátis effúsus, * In hymnis. v. Glória Patri. * In hymnis.

Orémus.

Beátæ Scholásticæ vírginis memóriam recoléntes, quǽsumus, Dómine, ut, eius exémplo, tibi intemeráta caritáte serviámus et felíces obtineámus tuæ dilectiónis efféctus.

In celebrating the memory of the Blessed Virgin Scholastica, Lord, we pray to Thou: grant that following her example we may serve Thou with unfailing charity, and that we may obtain the happy effects of Her love.
