Psalmus 118 (119), 1-8

Psalm 118 (119), 1-8

Meditatio verbi Domini in lege

Meditation on the Word of God and His law.

Hæc est caritas Dei, ut mandata eius servemus (1 Io 5, 3).

To love God is to keep His commandments (1 Io 5, 3).

I (Aleph)

Beáti immaculáti in via, * qui ámbulant in lege Dómini.

Blessed are the undefiled in the way, * who walk in the law of the Lord.

Beáti, qui servant testimónia eius, * in toto corde exquírunt eum.

Blessed are they that search his testimonies: that seek him with their whole heart.

Non enim operáti sunt iniquitátem, * in viis eius ambulavérunt.

For they that work iniquity, have not walked in his ways.

Tu mandásti * mandáta tua custodíri nimis.

Thou hast commanded * thy commandments to be kept most diligently.

Utinam dirigántur viæ meæ * ad custodiéndas iustificatiónes tuas!

O! that my ways may be directed to keep thy justifications.

Tunc non confúndar, * cum perspéxero in ómnibus præcéptis tuis.

Then shall I not be confounded, when I shall look into all thy commandments.

Confitébor tibi in directióne cordis, * in eo quod dídici iudícia iustítiæ tuæ.

I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned the judgments of thy justice.

Iustificatiónes tuas custódiam, * non me derelínquas usquequáque.

I will keep thy justifications: O! do not thou utterly forsake me.

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.

Psalmus 12 (13)

Psalm 12 (13)

Lamentatio iusti Domino fidentis

Lament of the righteous trusting in God

Deus spei repleat vos omni gaudio (Rom 15, 13).

May the God of hope fill us with joy (Rom 15:13).

Usquequo, Dómine, obliviscéris me in finem? * Usquequo avértes fáciem tuam a me?

How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me unto the end? how long dost thou turn away thy face from me?

Usquequo ponam consília in ánima mea, † dolórem in corde meo per diem? * Usquequo exaltábitur inimícus meus super me?

How long shall I take counsels in my soul, sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

Réspice et exáudi me, Dómine Deus meus. * Illúmina óculos meos, ne quando obdórmiam in morte,

Consider, and hear me, O Lord, my God. Enlighten my eyes, that I never sleep in death:

ne quando dicat inimícus meus: † «Præválui advérsus eum!»; * neque exsúltent, qui tríbulant me, si motus fúero.

lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him. They that trouble me, will rejoice when I am moved:

Ego autem in misericórdia tua sperávi. † Exsultábit cor meum in salutári tuo, * cantábo Dómino, qui bona tríbuit mihi.

but I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things: yea I will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.

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.

Psalmus 13 (14)

Psalm 13 (14)

Impiorum stultitia

The punishment of the godless

Ubi abundavit peccatum, superabundavit gratia (Rom 5, 20).

Where sin had multiplied, grace has abounded (Rom 5:20).

Dixit insípiens in corde suo: «Non est Deus». † Corrúpti sunt et abominatiónes operáti sunt; * non est qui fáciat bonum.

THE fool hath said in his heart: There is no God. They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: there is none that doth good, no not one.

Dóminus de cælo prospéxit super fílios hóminum, * ut vidéret si est intéllegens aut requírens Deum.

The Lord hath looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there be any that understand and seek God.

Omnes declinavérunt, simul corrúpti sunt; * non est qui fáciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.

They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, no not one.

Nonne scient omnes, qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam sicut escam panis?

Shall not all they know that work iniquity, who devour my people as they eat bread?

Dóminum non invocavérunt, † illic trepidavérunt timóre, * quóniam Deus cum generatióne iusta est.

They have not called upon the Lord: there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.

Vos consílium ínopis confundétis, * Dóminus autem spes eius est.

You have confounded the counsel of the poor man, but the Lord is his hope.

Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israel? † Cum convérterit Dóminus captivitátem plebis suæ, * exsultábit Iacob et lætábitur Israel.

Who shall give out of Sion the salvation of Israel? when the Lord shall have turned away the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad.

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. Per arma iustítiæ virtútis Dei commendémus nosmetipsos in multa patiéntia.

Ant. With the weapons of God's justice and strength, let us seek to become better in great patience.

Lectio brevis (Is 58, 1-2a)

Clama fórtiter, ne cesses; quasi tuba exálta vocem tuam et annúntia pópulo meo scélera eórum et dómui Iacob peccáta eórum. Me étenim de die in diem quærunt et scire vias meas volunt, quasi gens, quæ iustítiam fécerit et iudícium Dei sui non derelíquerit.

Cry, cease not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their wicked doings, and the house of Jacob their sins. For they seek me from day to day, sad desire to know my ways, as a nation that hath done justice, and hath not forsaken the judgment of their God: they ask of me the judgments of justice: they are willing to approach to God.

v. Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus. r. Cor contrítum et humiliátum, Deus, non despícies.

v. The sacrifice worthy of God is a broken spirit. r. Thou shalt not despise, O God, a contrite and humbled heart.

Orémus.

Postea dicitur immediate et sine orémus oratio propria, cum conclusione longiore.

After this the proper prayer is said straightway and without "Let us pray", with the long conclusion.

Da nobis, quǽsumus, Dómine, perseverántem in tua voluntáte famulátum, * ut in diébus nostris et mérito et número * pópulus tibi sérviens augeátur. Per Dóminum.

Lord, grant us the grace to persevere in submission to Thy will, so that in these days in which we live, the people devoted to Thy service may increase in number and grow in holiness.

Si præest sacerdos vel diaconus :

Dóminus vobíscum.

The Lord be with thee.

r. Et cum spíritu tuo.

r. And with thy spirit.

Benedícat vos omnípotens Deus, Pater, ✠ et Fílius, et Spíritus Sanctus.

May God Almighty bless thee, the Father, ✠ and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

r. Amen.

Vel alia formula benedictionis, sicut in Missa.

Or another formula of blessing, as at Mass.

Et si fit dimissio, sequitur invitatio:

And if we make a referral, we add the invitation:

v. Benedicámus Dómino. r. Deo grátias.

v. Let us bless the Lord. r. Thanks be to God.

Absente sacerdote vel diacono, et in recitatione a solo, sic concluditur:

In the absence of a deacon or a priest, and in the recitation alone, it is concluded thus:

Dóminus nos benedícat, et ab omni malo deféndat, et ad vitam perdúcat ætérnam. r. Amen.

May the Lord bless us, forbid us from all evil, and bring us to eternal life. r. Amen.
