Hymnus
Lætáre, cælum, désuper, appláude, tellus ac mare: Christus resúrgens post crucem vitam dedit mortálibus.
Iam tempus accéptum redit, dies salútis cérnitur, quo mundus Agni sánguine refúlsit a calígine.
Mors illa, mortis pássio, est críminis remíssio; illæ ́ sa virtus pérmanet, victus dedit victóriam.
Nostræ fuit gustus spei hic, ut fidéles créderent se posse post resúrgere, vitam beátam súmere.
Nunc ergo pascha cándidum causa bonórum tálium colámus omnes strénue tanto repléti múnere.
Esto perénne méntibus paschále, Iesu, gáudium, et nos renátos grátiæ tuis triúmphis ággrega.
Lord Jesus, grant unto our souls Eternal paschal joy, we pray, And grant a share in victory To those reborn by grace today.
Iesu, tibi sit glória, qui morte victa prǽnites, 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.

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.

Exsúrge, Dómine Deus; exálta manum tuam, * ne obliviscáris páuperum.
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.

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.

De Actibus Apostolórum 17, 19-34
Apprehénsum Paulum Atheniénses ad Areópagum duxérunt dicéntes: «Póssumus scire quæ est hæc nova, quæ a te dícitur doctrína? Mira enim quædam infers áuribus nostris; vólumus ergo scire quidnam velint hæc esse.» Atheniénses autem omnes et ádvenæ hóspites ad nihil áliud vacábant nisi aut dícere aut audíre áliquid novi. Stans autem Paulus in médio Areópagi ait: «Viri Atheniénses, per ómnia quasi superstitiosióres vos vídeo; prætériens enim et videns simulácra vestra invéni et aram, in qua scriptum erat: Ignóto deo. Quod ergo ignorántes cólitis, hoc ego annúntio vobis.
Deus, qui fecit mundum et ómnia, quæ in eo sunt, hic, cæli et terræ cum sit Dóminus, non in manufáctis templis inhábitat, nec mánibus humánis cólitur índigens áliquo, cum ipse det ómnibus vitam et inspiratiónem et ómnia; fecítque ex uno omne genus hóminum inhabitáre super univérsam fáciem terræ, defíniens statúta témpora et términos habitatiónis eórum, quærere Deum si forte attréctent eum et invéniant, quamvis non longe sit ab unoquóque nostrum.
In ipso enim vívimus et movémur et sumus, sicut et quidam vestrum pœtárum dixérunt: Ipsíus enim et genus sumus. Genus ergo cum simus Dei, non debémus æstimáre auro aut argénto aut lápidi, sculptúræ artis et cogitatiónis hóminis, divínum esse símile. Et témpora quidem ignorántiæ despíciens Deus, nunc annúntiat homínibus ut omnes ubíque pæniténtiam agant, eo quod státuit diem in qua iudicatúrus est orbem in iustítia in viro quem constítuit, fidem præbens ómnibus súscitans eum a mórtuis.»
Cum audíssent autem resurrectiónem mortuórum, quidam quidem irridébant, quidam vero dixérunt: «Audiémus te de hoc íterum.» Sic Paulus exívit de médio eórum. Quidam vero viri adhæréntes ei credidérunt, in quibus et Dionýsius Areopagíta et múlier nómine Dámaris et álii cum eis.
r. Deus, cánticum novum cantábo tibi, allelúia; * In psaltério decem chordárum psallam tibi, allelúia, allelúia. v. Qui das salútem régibus, qui liberásti David servum tuum de gládio malígno. * In psaltério. v. Glória Patri. * In psaltério.

Ex Libro Cleméntis Alexandríni De cohortatióne ad Gentes (Cap. 9: PG 8, 195.198.199-202)
Curam hóminum non depónit Dóminus, sed instat ipsis assídue hortándo, perterrefaciéndo, impelléndo, excitándo, admonéndo: et hos quidem qui erróribus fuérunt implíciti, expergefáctos e médiis ténebris éxcitat. Expergíscere, inquit, qui dormis, et surge a mórtuis, et illucéscet tibi Christus Dóminus, ille sol resurrectiónis qui ante lucíferum génitus est, suísque rádiis vitam prbuit. Ne quis ítaque spernat Verbum ac níhili fáciat, ne forte semetípsum imprúdens contempsísse reperiátur.
Dicit enim alícubi Scriptúra: Hódie si vocem eius audiéritis, nolíte obduráre corda vestra. Dóminus autem, cum sit humáni géneris amantíssimus, Parácletum mittit, qui omnes hómines hortétur ad cognoscéndam veritátem. Quæ est ígitur cognítio? Píetas erga Deum. At píetas ad ómnia útilis est, dicénte Paulo, ut quæ promissiónem hábeat vitæ præséntis ac futúræ. Píetas autem, ut hóminem Deo, quoad potest, assímilet, idóneum ipsi magístrum Deum ascríbit qui solus hóminem, prout est dignum, Deo símilem effícere valet.
Audíte ígitur, qui procul estis; audíte, qui prope estis. Verbum a némine umquam celátum fuit, sed, quasi pública lux, illúcet ómnibus homínibus. Properémus cónsequi salútem renascéndo. Properémus, ad exémplum unitátis únicæ natúræ, uno multi amóre coniúngi et coaléscere; bonæque mónadis vidéndæ stúdio incénsi, qui eius bonitátis partícipes sumus, unitátem páriter sequámur. Multórum enim in unum concúrsus, in divínam quamdam concórdiam a váriis ac discórdibus vócibus redácta, unum concéntum éfficit, eumdémque chori ducem et magístrum séquitur, et in eádem requiéscens veritáte, dicit: Abba, Pater. Hanc Deus germánam filiórum suórum vocem, quam primam ei offérre solent, ampléctitur.
r. Surréxit Dóminus vere, allelúia, allelúia, et appáruit Petro, * Allelúia, allelúia, allelúia. v. Et ipsi narrábant quæ gesta fúerint in via, et quómodo cognovérunt eum in fractióne panis. * Allelúia. v. Glória Patri. * Allelúia.
Orémus.
Deus, qui ad ætérnam vitam in Christi resurrectióne nos réparas, † da pópulo tuo fídei speíque constántiam, * ut non dubitémus implénda, quæ te nóvimus auctóre promíssa. Per Dóminum.
