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 ǽstibus, 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.

Iudica me, Deus, † et discérne causam meam de gente non sancta; * ab hómine iníquo et dolóso érue me.

Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation that is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.

Quia tu es Deus refúgii mei; † quare me repulísti, * et quare tristis incédo, dum afflígit me inimícus?

For thou art God my strength: why hast thou cast me off? and why do I go sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me?

Emítte lucem tuam et veritátem tuam; * ipsæ me dedúcant et addúcant in montem sanctum tuum et in tabernácula tua.

Sent forth thy light and thy truth: they have conducted me, and brought me unto thy holy hill, and into thy tabernacles.

Et introíbo ad altáre Dei, † ad Deum lætítiæ exsultatiónis meæ. * Confitébor tibi in cíthara, Deus, Deus meus.

And I will go in to the altar of God: to God who giveth joy to my youth.

Quare tristis es, ánima mea, * et quare conturbáris in me?

To thee, O God my God, I will give praise upon the harp: why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me?

Spera in Deo, quóniam adhuc confitébor illi, * salutáre vultus mei et Deus meus.

Cantique (Is 38, 10-14. 17-20)

Moribundi angores, sanati lætitia

The anguish of agony, the joy of healing

Ego sum vivens et fui mortuus ... et habeo claves mortis (Ap 1, 17-18).

I am the living: I was dead, and I hold the keys of death

Ego dixi: In dimídio diérum meórum † vadam ad portas ínferi; * quæsívi resíduum annórum meórum.

I said, "In the middle of my days I am going away; I have my place amongst the dead for the end of my years.

Dixi: Non vidébo Dóminum Deum in terra vivéntium, † non aspíciam hóminem ultra * inter habitatóres orbis.

I said, "I will not behold the Lord in the land of the living, nor a man's face amongst the inhabitants of the world."

Habitáculum meum ablátum est et abdúctum longe a me * quasi tabernáculum pastórum;

My dwelling is taken from me, torn away, like a shepherd's tent.

convólvit sicut textor vitam meam; * de stámine succídit me.

Like a weaver, I unwinded my life; the thread is cut.

De mane usque ad vésperam * confecísti me.

From day to night, Thou finish me off.

Prostrátus sum usque ad mane, * quasi leo sic cónterit ómnia ossa mea;

I cried out until such time as morning, like a lion, he crushed all my bones.

de mane usque ad vésperam * confecísti me.

From day to night, Thou finish me off.

Sicut pullus hirúndinis, sic mussitábo, * meditábor ut colúmba;

Like the swallow, I cry out, I moan like the dove.

attenuáti sunt óculi mei * suspiciéntes in excélsum.

My eyes weaken from looking up there.

Tu autem eruísti ánimam meam * a fóvea consumptiónis,

And thou hast clung to my soul, thou hast pulled me out of the nothingness of the abyss,

proiecísti enim post tergum tuum * ómnia peccáta mea.

Thou hast thrown all my sins far behind Thou.

Quia non inférnus confitébitur tibi, * neque mors laudábit te;

for hell cannot give thanks unto thee, nor death to praise thou;

non exspectábunt, qui descéndunt in lacum, * veritátem tuam.

they are no longer waiting, those who descend into the pit for Thy truth.

Vivens, vivens ipse confitébitur tibi, sicut et ego hódie; * pater fíliis notam fáciet veritátem tuam.

The living, the living, gives thanks to Thou, as I do today. And the father to his children will show Thy faithfulness.

Dómine, salvum me fac, † et ad sonum cítharæ cantábimus cunctis diébus vitæ nostræ * in domo Dómini.

Lord, come and save me, and we will play on our zithers all the days of our lives in the house of the Lord.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
