Eternal Maker of the light, Who art Thyself the Light and Day, No darkness can be found in Thee, Nor can thy splendor pass away.

Iam cedit pallens próximo diéi nox advéntui, obtúndens lumen síderum adest et clarus lúcifer.

The fading night now gives its place To dawning day, so clear and bright; Now rises, too, the Morning Star, Outshining all the stars of night.

Iam stratis læti súrgimus grates canéntes et tuas, quod cæcam noctem vícerit revéctans rursus sol diem.

So from our rest in joy we rise To chant thy praise and to adore; Blind night hath fallen to the sun That ushers in the day once more.

Te nunc, ne carnis gáudia blandis subrépant æstibus, dolis ne cedat sǽculi mens nostra, sancte, quǽsumus.

We beg Thee now, O Holy Lord, Should baser passions lure and charm, Let not such fleeting worldly snares Bring hearts and minds to any harm.

Ira ne rixas próvocet, gulam ne venter íncitet, opum pervértat ne famis, turpis ne luxus óccupet,

Help us to temper food and drink; May anger never bring distress; Let not a thirst for wealth corrupt, Nor shameful lust our hearts possess.

Sed firma mente sóbrii, casto manéntes córpore totum fidéli spíritu Christo ducámus hunc diem.

But, sober and with steadfast mind, Remaining chaste, let us proceed Throughout this day in loyalty To Christ in ev'ry thought and deed.

Præsta, Pater piíssime, Patríque compar Unice, cum Spíritu Paráclito regnans per omne sǽculum. Amen.

Almighty Father, hear our cry, Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High, Who, with the Holy Ghost and Thee, Doth live and reign eternally.

Iusti principis confessio

Si diligitis me, mandata mea servabitis (Io 14, 15).

If you love Me, keep My commandments (Io 14, 15).

Misericórdiam et iudícium cantábo; *tibi, Dómine, psallam.

I want to sing of goodness and justice; it is Thou, the Lord, whom I want to celebrate.

Intéllegam in via immaculáta; *quando vénies ad me?

I will beware of the path of innocence. When will Thou come unto me?

Perambulábo in innocéntia cordis mei, *in médio domus meæ.

I will walk in the integrity of my heart, in the midst of my house.

Non propónam ante óculos meos rem iniústam, † faciéntem prævaricatiónes ódio habébo, *non adhærébit mihi.

I will not set before my eyes any evil deed, I hate perverse conduct, it will not cling unto me.

Cor pravum recédet a me, *malígnum non cognóscam.

A false heart will never be mine, I don't want to know evil.

Detrahéntem secréto próximo suo, *hunc cessáre fáciam;

The detractor who secretly tears his neighbor apart, I will exterminate;

supérbum óculo et inflátum corde, *hunc non sustinébo.

the man with the haughty behold and the heart swollen with pride, I will not support him.

Oculi mei ad fidéles terræ, ut sédeant mecum; *qui ámbulat in via immaculáta, hic mihi ministrábit.

I will have my eyes on the faithful men of the land, that they may dwell with me; whoever walks in an upright way will be my servant.

Non habitábit in médio domus meæ, qui facit supérbiam; *qui lóquitur iníqua, non stabit in conspéctu oculórum meórum.

He who acts with deceit will have no place in my house; he who utters a lie will not stand before my eyes.

In matutíno cessáre fáciam omnes peccatóres terræ, *ut dispérdam de civitáte Dómini omnes operántes iniquitátem.

Every morning I will destroy all the wicked in the land, that I may cut off from the city of the Lord all those who work iniquity.

Cantique Daniel (3, 26. 27. 29. 34-41)

Oratio Azariæ in fornace

Azarias prays in the furnace

Pænitemini et convertimini, ut deleantur vestra peccata (Act 3, 19).

Repent and be converted, so that your sins may be blotted out (Acts 3:19).

Benedíctus es, Dómine, Deus patrum nostrórum, * et laudábilis et gloriósum nomen tuum in sǽcula,

Blessed be thou, Lord, God of our fathers; Thy Name is worthy of praise and glory forevermore.

quia iustus es in ómnibus, * quæ fecísti nobis.

For Thou art righteous in all that Thou hast done unto us,

Peccávimus enim et iníque égimus recedéntes a te * et delíquimus in ómnibus.

For we have sinned and committed iniquity by withdrawing from Thee, and we have failed in all things.

Ne, quǽsumus, tradas nos in perpétuum propter nomen tuum * et ne díssipes testaméntum tuum,

Don't give us up forevermore for Thy Name's sake, and don't destroy Thy covenant.

neque áuferas misericórdiam tuam a nobis † propter Abraham diléctum tuum * et Isaac servum tuum et Israel sanctum tuum,

Do not take away Thy mercy from us, for the sake of Abraham thy friend, Isaac thy servant, and Israel thy holy one,

quibus dixísti quod multiplicáres semen eórum * sicut stellas cæli et sicut arénam, quæ est in lítore maris,

to whom Thou hast promised to multiply their posterity; like the stars of heaven, and like the sand that is on the shore of the sea.

quia, Dómine, imminúti sumus plus quam omnes gentes * sumúsque húmiles in univérsa terra hódie propter peccáta nostra;

For, Lord, we are reduced before all nations, and today we are humbled by all thy earth forasmuch as of our sins.

et non est in témpore hoc princeps et prophéta et dux, * neque holocáustum neque sacrifícium,

At this time there is no longer for us a prince, or a ruler, or a prophet, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice.

neque oblátio neque incénsum, † neque locus primitiárum coram te, * ut possímus inveníre misericórdiam;

neither oblation nor incense; nor a place to bring before Thou the firstfruits and find grace;

sed in ánima contríta et spíritu humilitátis suscipiámur † sicut in holocáusto aríetum et taurórum * et sicut in mílibus agnórum pínguium,

but may we be received with contrite hearts and humbled spirits, as thou receive every burnt offering of rams and bulls, or of a thousand fat lambs,

sic fiat sacrifícium nostrum in conspéctu tuo hódie, † et pérfice subsequéntes te, * quóniam non est confúsio confidéntibus in te.

so may it be with our sacrifice before Thee today, and our submission to Thee, for there is no confusion for those who trust in Thee.

Et nunc séquimur te in toto corde * et timémus te et quǽrimus fáciem tuam.

Now, we follow Thou with all our hearts, we fear Thou, and we seek Thy face.

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.

Dómine, quid est homo, quod agnóscis eum, *aut fílius hóminis, quod réputas eum?

Lord, what is man that Thou knowest him, the Son of Man, that Thou takest heed of him?

Homo vanitáti símilis factus est, *dies eius sicut umbra prætériens.

Man is like a breath, his days are like the passing shadow.

Dómine, inclína cælos tuos et descénde; *tange montes, et fumigábunt.

Lord, lower Thy heavens and come down; touch the mountains, and let them be set ablaze.

Fúlgura coruscatiónem et díssipa eos; *emítte sagíttas tuas et contúrba eos.

Shine the lightnings, and scatter the enemies; shoot Thy arrows, and rout them.

Emítte manum tuam de alto; * éripe me et líbera me de aquis multis,

Stretch out Thy hands from on high, deliver me and save me from many waters,

de manu filiórum alienigenárum, †quorum os locútum est vanitátem, * et déxtera eórum déxtera mendácii.

from the hand of the sons of the stranger, whose mouth utters falsehood, and whose right hand is a perjured right.

Deus, cánticum novum cantábo tibi, * in psaltério decachórdo psallam tibi,

O God, I will sing a new song to Thou, I will praise Thou on the ten-stringed lute,

qui das salútem régibus, * qui rédimis David servum tuum de gládio malígno.

for thou givest victory to kings, thou save David, thy servant, from the murderous sword.
