Hymnus
Hæc hora, quæ resplénduit crucísque solvit núbila, mundum tenébris éxuens, reddens seréna lúmina.
This hour shines forth
And dissolves the black clouds of the cross,
Rescues the world from darkness
And returns the light of peace.
Hæc hora, qua resúscitans Iesus sepúlcris córpora, prodíre mortis líbera iussit refúso spíritu.
This is the hour when Jesus
Raises the bodies from the tombs
And commands that they come forth free of death
And infused again with breath.
Nováta sæcla crédimus mortis solútis légibus, vitæ beátæ múnera cursum perénnem cúrrere.
We believe in a new world,
loosened from the laws of death,
the gifts of blessed life
running an eternal course.
Iesu, tibi sit glória, qui morte victa prænites, cum Patre et almo Spíritu, in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.
All glory, Jesus, be to you, The conqueror whom we adore, The Father and the Spirit blest Who reign with you for evermore.

Iúdica causam meam et rédime me; * propter elóquium tuum vivífica me.
Judge my judgment and redeem me: quicken thou me for thy word’s sake.
Longe a peccatóribus salus, * quia iustificatiónes tuas non exquisiérunt.

Misericórdiæ tuæ multæ, Dómine; * secúndum iudícia tua vivífica me.
Many, O Lord, are thy mercies: quicken me according to thy judgment.
Multi, qui persequúntur me et tríbulant me; * a testimóniis tuis non declinávi.
Many are they that persecute me, and afflict me; but I have not declined from thy testimonies.
Vidi prævaricántes, et tæduit me, * quia elóquia tua non custodiérunt.
I beheld the transgressors, and I pined away; because they kept not thy word.
Vide quóniam mandáta tua diléxi, Dómine; * secúndum misericórdiam tuam vivífica me.
Behold I have loved thy commandments, O Lord; quicken me thou in thy mercy.
Princípium verbórum tuórum véritas, * in ætérnum ómnia iudícia iustítiæ tuæ.

Thy children as olive plants, round about thy table.
Ecce sic benedicétur homo, * qui timet Dóminum.

Ecclesia loquitur de iis quæ tolerat (S. Augustinus).
The Church speaks of what it undergoes (S. Augustine).
Sæpe expugnavérunt me a iuventúte mea, * dicat nunc Israel,
Often have they fought against me from my youth, * let Israel now say:
sæpe expugnavérunt me a iuventúte mea, * étenim non potuérunt advérsum me.
Often have they fought against me from my youth, * but they could not prevail against me.
Supra dorsum meum aravérunt aratóres, * prolongavérunt sulcos suos.
The ploughers ploughed upon my back, * they made long their furrows.
Dóminus autem iustus * concídit cervíces peccatórum.
The Lord who is just * will cut the necks of sinners.
Confundántur et convertántur retrórsum * omnes, qui odérunt Sion.
Let them all be confounded and turned back * that hate Sion.
Fiant sicut fenum tectórum * quod, priúsquam evellátur, exáruit;
Let them be as grass upon the housetops, * which withereth before it be plucked up:
de quo non implévit manum suam, qui metit, * et sinum suum, qui manípulos cólligit.
Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand, * nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.
Et non dixérunt, qui præteríbant: † «Benedíctio Dómini super vos, * benedícimus vobis in nómine Dómini».
And they that passed by have not said: † “The blessing of the Lord be upon you; * we have blessed you in the name of the Lord.”
