Nox atra rerum cóntegit terræ colóres ómnium: nos confiténtes póscimus te, iuste iudex córdium,
The dusky veil of night hath laid The varied hues of earth in shade; Before Thee, righteous Judge of all, We contrite in confession fall.
Ut áuferas piácula sordésque mentis ábluas, donésque, Christe, grátiam ut arceántur crímina.
Take far away our load of sin, Our soiled minds make clean within: Thy sov’reign grace, O Christ, impart, From all offence to guard our heart.
Mens, ecce, torpet ímpia, quam culpa mordet nóxia; obscúra gestit tóllere et te, Redémptor, quǽrere.
For lo! our mind is dull and cold, Envenomed by sin’s baneful hold: Fain would it now the darkness flee, And seek, Redeemer, unto Thee.
Repélle tu calíginem intrínsecus quam máxime, ut in beáto gáudeat se collocári lúmine.
Far from it drive the shades of night, Its inmost darkness put to flight; Till in the daylight of the Blest It joys to find itself at rest.

God, who hath girt me with strength; and made my way blameless.
qui perfécit pedes meos tamquam cervórum * et super excélsa státuit me;
Who hath made my feet like the feet of harts: and who setteth me upon high places.
qui docet manus meas ad prœlium, * et tendunt arcum æreum bráchia mea.
Who teacheth my hands to war: and thou hast made my arms like a brazen bow.

And thou hast given me the protection of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath held me up: And thy discipline hath corrected me unto the end: and thy discipline, the same shall teach me.
Dilatásti gressus meos subtus me, * et non sunt infirmáta vestígia mea.
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; and my feet are not weakened.
Persequébar inimícos meos et comprehendébam illos * et non convertébar, donec defícerent.
I will pursue after my enemies, and overtake them: and I will not turn again till they are consumed.
Confringébam illos, nec póterant stare, * cadébant subtus pedes meos.
I will break them, and they shall not be able to stand: they shall fall under my feet.
Et præcinxísti me virtúte ad bellum * et supplantásti insurgéntes in me subtus me.
And thou hast girded me with strength unto battle; and hast subdued under me them that rose up against me.
Et inimícos meos dedísti mihi dorsum * et odiéntes me disperdidísti.
And thou hast made my enemies turn their back upon me, and hast destroyed them that hated me.
Clamavérunt, nec erat qui salvos fáceret, * ad Dóminum, nec exaudívit eos.
They cried, but there was none to save them, to the Lord: but he heard them not.
Et commínui eos ut púlverem ante fáciem venti, * ut lutum plateárum contrívi eos.
And I shall beat them as small as the dust before the wind; I shall bring them to nought, like the dirt in the streets.
Eripuísti me de contradictiónibus pópuli, * constituísti me in caput géntium.
Thou wilt deliver me from the contradictions of the people: thou wilt make me head of the Gentiles.
Pópulus, quem non cognóvi, servívit mihi, * in audítu auris obœdívit mihi.
A people, which I knew not, hath served me: at the hearing of the ear they have obeyed me.
Fílii aliéni blandíti sunt mihi, † fílii aliéni inveteráti sunt, * contremuérunt in ábditis suis.
The children that are strangers have lied to me, strange children have faded away, and have halted from their paths.

De libro Iob
Respóndens Dóminus Iob de túrbine dixit: Quis est iste obscúrans consílium sermónibus imperítis? Accínge sicut vir lumbos tuos; interrogábo te, et édoce me. Ubi eras quando ponébam fundaménta terræ? Indica mihi, si habes intellegéntiam. Quis pósuit mensúras eius, si nosti? Vel quis teténdit super eam líneam? Super quo bases illíus solidátæ sunt? Aut quis demísit lápidem angulárem eius, cum clamárent simul astra matutína et iubilárent omnes fílii Dei?
Quis conclúsit óstiis mare, quando erumpébat quasi de viscéribus procédens, cum pónerem nubem vestiméntum eius et calígine illud quasi fáscia obvólverem? Definívi illud términis meis et pósui vectem et óstia et dixi: "Usque huc vénies et non procédes ámplius et hic confrínges tuméntes fluctus tuos." Numquid in diébus tuis præcepísti dilúculo et assignásti auróræ locum suum, et, cum extréma terræ tenéres, excússi sunt ímpii ex ea? Vertétur in lutum signátum et stabit sicut vestiméntum. Cohibétur ab ímpiis lux sua, et bráchium excélsum confringétur.
Numquid ingréssus es scaturígines maris et in novíssimis abýssi deambulásti? Numquid apértæ sunt tibi portæ mortis, et óstia tenebrósa vidísti? Numquid considerásti latitúdinem terræ? Indica mihi, si nosti ómnia: In qua via lux hábitet, et tenebrárum quis locus sit; ut ducas unumquódque ad términos suos et intéllegas sémitas domus eius? Novísti, nam tunc natus eras, et númerus diérum tuórum multus! Numquid ingréssus es thesáuros nivis aut thesáuros grándinis aspexísti, quæ præparávi in tempus angústiæ, in diem pugnæ et belli?
Per quam viam spárgitur lux, diffúnditur ventus urens super terram? Quis dedit vehementíssimo imbri cursum et viam fúlmini tonánti, ut plúeret super terram absque hómine, in desérto, ubi nullus mortálium commorátur, ut impléret ínviam et desolátam et prodúceret herbas in terra árida? Quis est plúviæ pater, vel quis génuit stillas roris? De cuius sinu egréssa est glácies, et pruínam de cælo quis génuit? In similitúdinem lápidis aquæ durántur, et superfícies abýssi constríngitur?
r. Meménto mei, Deus, quia ventus est vita mea; * Nec aspíciet me visus hóminis. v. De profúndis clamávi ad te, Dómine; Dómine exáudi vocem meam. * Nec aspíciet. v. Glória Patri. * Nec aspíciet.
In secundo nocturno, anno II
Ex libris Morálium sancti Gregórii Magni papæ (Lib. 10, 29: PL 75, 947)
Huius mundi sapiéntia est cor machinatiónibus tégere, sensum verbis veláre, quæ falsa sunt vera osténdere, quæ vera sunt fallácia demonstráre. Hæc nimírum prudéntia usu a iuvénibus scitur, hæc a púeris prétio díscitur, hanc qui sciunt céteros despiciéndo supérbiunt; hanc qui nésciunt, subiécti et tímidi in áliis mirántur, quia ab eis hæc eádem duplícitas iniquitátis, nómine palliáta, dilígitur, dum mentis pervérsitas urbánitas vocátur. Hæc sibi obsequéntibus præcipit honórum cúlmina quærere, adépta temporális glóriæ vanitáte gaudére, irrogáta ab áliis mala multiplícius réddere, cum vires súppetunt nullis resisténtibus cédere, cum virtútis possibílitas deest, quidquid explére per malítiam non valet, hoc in pacífica bonitáte simuláre.
At contra, sapiéntia iustórum est nihil per ostensiónem fíngere, sensum verbis aperíre, vera ut sunt dilígere, falsa devitáre, bona gratis exhibére, mala libéntius toleráre quam fácere; nullam iniúriæ ultiónem qurere, pro veritáte contuméliam lucrum putáre.
Sed hæc iustórum simplícitas deridétur, quia ab huius mundi sapiéntibus puritátis virtus, fatúitas créditur. Omne enim quod innocénter ágitur, ab eis procul dúbio stultum putátur; et quidquid in ópere véritas ápprobat, carnáli sapiéntiæ fátuum sonat. Quid namque stúltius vidétur mundo quam mentem verbis osténdere, nil cállida machinatióne simuláre, nullas iniúriis contumélias réddere, pro maledicéntibus oráre, paupertátem quærere, posséssa relínquere, rapiénti non resístere, percutiénti álteram maxíllam præbére?
r. Versa est in luctum cíthara mea, et órganum meum in vocem fléntium; * Parce mihi, Dómine, nihil enim sunt dies mei. v. O custos hóminum, quare me posuísti contrárium tibi, et factus sum mihimetípsi gravis? * Parce mihi. v. Glória Patri. * Parce mihi.
Orémus.
Protéctor in te sperántium, Deus, sine quo nihil est válidum, nihil sanctum, † multíplica super nos misericórdiam tuam, * ut, te rectóre, te duce, sic bonis transeúntibus nunc utámur, ut iam possímus inhærére mansúris. Per Dóminum.
Protector of those who hope in Thou, O God, without whom naught is solid, naught holy, pour out Thy mercy abundantly upon us, so that under Thy guidance and direction we may now use the transitory goods so that we may even here on earth remain attached to those who remain.
