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.

VII (Zain)
VII (Zain)
Memor esto verbi tui servo tuo, * in quo mihi spem dedísti.
Be thou mindful of thy word to thy servant, in which thou hast given me hope.
Hoc me consolátum est in humiliatióne mea, * quia elóquium tuum vivificávit me.
This hath comforted me in my humiliation: because thy word hath enlivened me.
Supérbi derisérunt me veheménter; * a lege autem tua non declinávi.
The proud did iniquitously altogether: but I declined not from thy law.
Memor fui iudiciórum tuórum a sæculo, Dómine, * et consolátus sum.
I remembered, O Lord, thy judgments of old: and I was comforted.
Indignátio ténuit me * propter peccatóres derelinquéntes legem tuam.
A fainting hath taken hold of me, because of the wicked that forsake thy law.
Cántica factæ sunt mihi iustificatiónes tuæ * in loco peregrinatiónis meæ.
Thy justifications were the subject of my song, in the place of my pilgrimage.
Memor fui nocte nóminis tui, Dómine, * et custódiam legem tuam.
In the night I have remembered thy name, O Lord: and have kept thy law.
Hoc factum est mihi, * quia mandáta tua servávi.
This happened to me: because I sought after thy justifications.
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.

Psalm 52 (53)
Impiorum stultitia
Defeat of the godless
Omnes peccaverunt et egent gloria Dei (Rom 3, 23).
All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Rom 3:23).
Dixit insípiens in corde suo: «Non est Deus». † Corrúpti sunt et abominatiónes operáti sunt; * non est qui fáciat bonum.
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God!" They are corrupt, they commit abominable crimes; there is none that does good.
Deus de cælo prospéxit super fílios hóminum, * ut vídeat si est intéllegens aut requírens Deum.
God, from heaven, looks at the sons of man, to behold if there is anyone who is intelligent, someone who seeks God.
Omnes declinavérunt, simul corrúpti sunt; * non est qui fáciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.
All are misguided, all are perverted; there is none of them who does good, not even one.
Nonne scient omnes, qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?
Have they not knowledge of those who commit iniquity? They devour my people as they eat bread,
Deum non invocavérunt; * illic trepidavérunt timóre, et non erat timor.
they do not call on God! They will suddenly tremble with terror, without there being any cause for terror;
Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum, qui te obsidébant * confúsi sunt, quóniám Deus sprevit eos.
for God has scattered the bones of him who was encamped against thee; thou hast confounded them, for God has rejected them.
Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israel? † Cum convérterit Deus captivitátem plebis suæ, * exsultábit Iacob et lætábitur Israel.
Oh! may the deliverance of Israel come from Zion! When God brings back the captives of His people, Jacob will rejoice, Israel will rejoice.
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.

Imploratio auxilii

Orat propheta, ut in nomine Domini a persequentium malignitate liberetur (Cassiodorus).
The prophet prays to be delivered in the name of the Lord from the malice of his persecutors (Cassiodorus).
Deus, in nómine tuo salvum me fac * et in virtúte tua iúdica me.
O God, save me by Thy name, and do me justice by Thy power.
Deus, exáudi oratiónem meam, * áuribus pércipe verba oris mei!
O God, hearken my prayer, give ear unto the words of my mouth.
Quóniam supérbi insurrexérunt advérsum me, † et fortes quæsiérunt ánimam meam * et non proposuérunt Deum ante conspéctum suum.
For strangers have risen against me, violent men want my life; they do not put God before their eyes.
Ecce enim Deus ádiuvat me, * et Dóminus suscéptor est ánimæ meæ.
Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the support of my soul.
[Convérte mala super inimícos meos * et in veritáte tua dispérde illos.]
[He shall bring evil upon my adversaries; in Thy truth, destroy them!]
Voluntárie sacrificábo tibi, * confitébor nómini tuo, Dómine, quóniam bonum est;
With all my heart I will offer sacrifices to Thou; I will praise Thy name, Lord, for it is good;
quóniam ex omni tribulatióne erípuit me, * et super inimícos meos despéxit óculus meus.
He delivers me from all anguish, and my eyes rest with joy on my enemies.
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.

Lectio brevis (Col 3, 1-2)
Si conresurrexístis Christo, quæ sursum sunt quærite, ubi Christus est in déxtera Dei sedens; quæ sursum sunt sápite, non quæ supra terram.
If you be risen with Christ, seek the things that are above; where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God: Mind the things that are above, not the things that are upon the earth.
