Psalm 118 (119), 145-152

XIX (Coph)

Clamávi in toto corde, exáudi me, Dómine; * iustificatiónes tuas servábo.

I cried with my whole heart, hear me, O Lord: I will seek thy justifications.

Clamávi ad te, salvum me fac, * ut custódiam testimónia tua.

I cried unto thee, save me: that I may keep thy commandments.

Prævéni dilúculo et clamávi, * in verba tua supersperávi.

I prevented the dawning of the day, and cried: because in thy words I very much hoped.

Prævenérunt óculi mei vigílias * ut meditárer elóquia tua.

My eyes to thee have prevented the morning: that I might meditate on thy words.

Vocem meam audi secúndum misericórdiam tuam, Dómine, * secúndum iudícium tuum vivífica me.

Hear thou my voice, O Lord, according to thy mercy: and quicken me according to thy judgment.

Appropinquavérunt persequéntes me in malítia, * a lege autem tua longe facti sunt.

They that persecute me have drawn nigh to iniquity; but they are gone far off from thy law.

Prope es tu, Dómine, * et ómnia præcépta tua véritas.

Thou art near, O Lord: and all thy ways are truth.

Ab inítio cognóvi de testimóniis tuis, * quia in ætérnum fundásti ea.

I have known from the beginning concerning thy testimonies: that thou hast founded them for ever.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Cant (Sap 9, 1-6. 9.11)

Domine, da mihi sapientiam

Lord, give me wisdom.

Dabo vobis os et sapientiam, cui non poterunt resistere... adversarii vestri (Lc 21, 15).

I will give you mouth and knowledge, which all your adversaries will not be able to resist or contradict (Lk 21:15).

Deus patrum meórum et Dómine misericórdiæ, * qui fecísti ómnia verbo tuo

God of my fathers and Lord of mercy, who has made all things by Thy word,

et sapiéntia tua constituísti hóminem, * ut dominarétur creatúris, quæ a te factæ sunt,

and who by Thy wisdom has appointed man, that he should rule over the creatures which Thou hast made,

et dispóneret orbem terrárum in sanctitáte et iustítia * et in directióne cordis iudícium iudicáret,

that he might govern the world in equity and justice, and that he might formulate his judgments with an upright heart:

da mihi sédium tuárum assistrícem sapiéntiam * et noli me reprobáre a púeris tuis,

give me that wisdom which sits with thee on thy throne, and do not cast me out of the number of thy children,

quóniam servus tuus sum ego et fílius ancíllæ tuæ, † homo infírmus et exígui témporis * et minor ad intelléctum iudícii et legum.

for I am Thy servant, and the son of Thy handmaid, a weak man, quick-lived, and little able to understand righteousness and the laws.

Nam, et si quis erit consummátus inter fílios hóminum, † si ab illo abfúerit sapiéntia tua, * in níhilum computábitur.

For if anyone should seem perfect amongst the sons of men, if Thy wisdom is not with him, he shall be considered naught.

Et tecum sapiéntia, quæ novit ópera tua, * quæ et áffuit tunc, cum orbem terrárum fáceres,

And thou hast with thee thy wisdom, which knows thy works, and which was present when thou formed the universe;

et sciébat quid esset plácitum in óculis tuis * et quid diréctum in præcéptis tuis.

she knew what is pleasing in Thy eyes, and what is the rectitude of Thy precepts.

Emítte illam de cælis sanctis tuis * et a sede magnitúdinis tuæ mitte illam,

Send it from heaven, Thy sanctuary, and from the throne of Thy greatness,

ut mecum sit et mecum labóret, * ut sciam quid accéptum sit apud te.

that she may be with me and work with me, and that I may know what is pleasing to Thou.

Scit enim illa ómnia et intéllegit † et dedúcet me in opéribus meis sóbrie * et custódiet me in sua glória.

For she hath knowledge and understanding of all things, and she will guide me in my works with circumspection, and protect me by her power.

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.

I will be glad in the Lord, and my heart will rejoice in my God, because He has clothed me with the garments of salvation and covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

sicut locútus est per os sanctórum, * qui a sǽculo sunt, prophetárum eius,

salútem ex inimícis nostris * et de manu ómnium, qui odérunt nos;

iusiurándum, quod iurávit ad Abraham patrem nostrum, * datúrum se nobis,

in sanctitáte et iustítia coram ipso * ómnibus diébus nostris.

In holiness and justice before him, all our days.

Et tu, puer, prophéta Altíssimi vocáberis: * præíbis enim ante fáciem Dómini paráre vias eius,

And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways:

ad dandam sciéntiam salútis plebi eius * in remissiónem peccatórum eórum,
