Linguam refrénans témperet, ne litis horror ínsonet; visum fovéndo cóntegat, ne vanitátes háuriat.

May fear of Him our tongues restrain, Lest strife unguarded speech should stain: His favoring care our guardian be, Lest our eyes feed on vanity.

Sint pura cordis íntima, absístat et vecórdia; carnis terat supérbiam potus cibíque párcitas;

May every heart be pure from sin, And folly find no place therein: Scant meed of food, excess denied, Wear down in us the body’s pride.

Ut, cum dies abscésserit noctémque sors redúxerit, mundi per abstinéntiam ipsi canámus glóriam.

That when the light of day is gone, And night in course shall follow on, We, free from cares the world affords, May chant the praise that is our Lord’s.

Deo Patri sit glória eiúsque soli Fílio cum Spíritu Paráclito, in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.

To God the Father glory be And glory to his only Son And to the Spirit Paraclete Forevermore while ages run.

Quia præcéptum in Israel est, * et iudícium Deo Iacob.

For it is a precept to Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.

Testimónium in Ioseph pósuit illud, † cum exíret de terra Ægýpti; * sermónem, quem non nóveram, audívi:

He made it a law for Joseph, when He marched against the land of Egypt, I hearken a voice unknown unto me:

«Divérti ab onéribus dorsum eius; * manus eius a cóphino recessérunt.

"I unloaded the burden on his shoulder, and his hands left the basket.

In tribulatióne invocásti me et liberávi te, † exaudívi te in abscóndito tempestátis, * probávi te apud aquam Meríba.

Thou cried out in distress, and I delivered thou; I answered and said thou from the bosom of the stormy cloud; I tried thou in the waters of Meriba.

Audi, pópulus meus, et contestábor te; * Israel, útinam áudias me!

Hearken, My people, I want to give thee a warning; Israel, may thou hearken unto Me!

Non erit in te deus aliénus, * neque adorábis deum extráneum.

Let there be no foreign god in thy midst: do not worship the god of another people.

Ego enim sum Dóminus Deus tuus, † qui edúxi te de terra Ægýpti; * diláta os tuum, et implébo illud.

It is I, the Lord thy God, who brought thou up out of the land of Egypt. Open thy mouth, and I will fill it.

Et non audívit pópulus meus vocem meam, * et Israel non inténdit mihi.

But My people did not hearken unto My voice, and Israel did not hearken and obey Me.

Et dimísi eos secúndum durítiam cordis eórum, * ibunt in adinventiónibus suis.

And I have abandoned them unto the desires of their hearts; they will walk according to their advice.

Si pópulus meus audísset me, * Israel si in viis meis ambulásset!

If My people had listened to Me, if Israel had walked in My ways,

In brevi inimícos eórum humiliássem * et super tribulántes eos misíssem manum meam.

I could have easily humiliated their enemies, and I would have laid My hand on their oppressors.

Inimíci Dómini blandiréntur ei, * et esset sors eórum in sǽcula;

The enemies of the Lord have lied unto him, and the time of their misery will last forevermore.

et cibárem eos ex ádipe fruménti * et de petra melle saturárem eos ».

And yet He fed them with the flower of the wheat, and He filled them with the honey that came out of the rock.

Lectio brevis (Rom 14, 17-19)

Non est regnum Dei esca et potus, sed iustítia et pax et gáudium in Spíritu Sancto; qui enim in hoc servit Christo, placet Deo et probátus est homínibus. Itaque, quæ pacis sunt, sectémur et quæ ædificatiónis sunt in ínvicem.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but justice, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in this serveth Christ, pleaseth God, and is approved of men. Therefore let us follow after the things that are of peace; and keep the things that are of edification one towards another.
