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.

Sit, Christe, rex piíssime, tibi Patríque glória cum Spíritu Paráclito, in sempitérna sæcula. Amen.

To thee, O Christ, our gracious king, And to thy Father, glory be, Who with the Spirit Paraclete Forever reign in majesty.

Psalm 88 (89), 39-53

Lamentatio de ruina domus David

Lamentation over the ruin of the house of David

Erexit cornu salutis nobis in domo David (Lc 1, 69).

He has raised up a savior from the house of David.

Tu vero reppulísti et reiecísti, * irátus es contra christum tuum;

And yet Thou rejected and despised; Thou hast rejected Thy anointed one.

evertísti testaméntum servi tui, * profanásti in terram diadéma eius.

Thou hast destroyed the covenant made with Thy servant; Thou hast desecrated his sacred diadem by throwing him unto the ground.

Destruxísti omnes muros eius, * posuísti munitiónes eius in ruínas.

Thou hast pulled down all its fences; Thou hast filled his fortresses with fear.

Diripuérunt eum omnes transeúntes viam, * factus est oppróbrium vicínis suis.

All who passed by the road plundered him, and he became the reproach of his neighbors.

Exaltásti déxteram depriméntium eum, * lætificásti omnes inimícos eius.

Thou hast lifted up the right hand of his oppressors; Thou hast rejoiced all his enemies.

Avertísti áciem gládii eius * et non es auxiliátus ei in bello.

Thou hast taken all strength from his sword, and thou hast not helped him in war.

Finem posuísti splendóri eius * et sedem eius in terram collisísti.

Thou hast stripped it of its splendor, and thou hast broken its throne against the earth.

Minorásti dies iuventútis eius, * perfudísti eum confusióne.

Thou hast shortened the days of his reign; Thou hast covered him with ignominy.

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.

Ant. 2.

Usquequo, Dómine, abscondéris in finem, * exardéscet sicut ignis ira tua?

How long, Lord, will Thou turn away forevermore? How long will Thy wrath burn like fire?

Memoráre, quam brevis mea substántia. * Ad quam vanitátem creásti omnes fílios hóminum?

Keep in remembrance what my life is; for is it for nothingness that Thou hast created all the children of men?

Quis est homo, qui vivet et non vidébit mortem, * éruet ánimam suam de manu ínferi?

What man can live without seeing death, and who will tear his soul from the power of hell?

Ubi sunt misericórdiæ tuæ antíquæ, Dómine, * sicut iurásti David in veritáte tua?

Where, Lord, are Thy ancient mercies, which Thou swore to David in the name of Thy truth?

Memor esto, Dómine, oppróbrii servórum tuórum, * quod contínui in sinu meo, multárum géntium,

Keep in remembrance, O Lord, the reproach of Thy servants; I have kept him hidden in my bosom; he came from many nations.

quo exprobravérunt inimíci tui, Dómine, * quo exprobravérunt vestígia christi tui.

Keep in remembrance the reproach of Thy enemies, Lord, the reproach they made about Thy change toward Thy anointed.

Blessed be the Lord forevermore. So be it, so be it.

Psalmus 89 (90)

Psalm 89 (90)

Sit splendor Domini super nos

May the splendor of the Lord be upon us.

Unus dies apud Dominum sicut mille anni, et mille anni sicut dies unus (2 Petr 3, 8).

With the Lord, one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day.

Dómine, refúgium factus es nobis * a generatióne in generatiónem.

Lord, thou hast been our refuge from generation to generation.

Priúsquam montes nasceréntur † aut gignerétur terra et orbis, * a sǽculo et usque in sǽculum tu es Deus.

Before the mountains were made, or the earth and the world was formed; from eternity and to eternity thou art God.

Redúcis hóminem in púlverem; * et dixísti: «Revertímini, fílii hóminum».

Turn not man away to be brought low: and thou hast said: Be converted, O ye sons of men.

Quóniam mille anni ante óculos tuos tamquam dies hestérna, quæ prætériit, * et custódia in nocte.

For a thousand years in thy sight are as yesterday, which is past. And as a watch in the night,

Auferes eos, sómnium erunt: * mane sicut herba succréscens,

things that are counted nothing, shall their years be. In the morning man shall grow up like grass;

mane floret et crescit, * véspere décidit et aréscit.

in the morning he shall flourish and pass away: in the evening he shall fall, grow dry, and wither.

Quia defécimus in ira tua * et in furóre tuo turbáti sumus.

For in thy wrath we have fainted away: and are troubled in thy indignation.

Posuísti iniquitátes nostras in conspéctu tuo, * occúlta nostra in illuminatióne vultus tui.

Thou hast set our iniquities before thy eyes: our life in the light of thy countenance.

Quóniam omnes dies nostri evanuérunt in ira tua, * consúmpsimus ut suspírium annos nostros.

For all our days are spent; and in thy wrath we have fainted away. Our years shall be considered as a spider:

Dies annórum nostrórum sunt septuagínta anni * aut in valéntibus octogínta anni,

the days of our years in them are threescore and ten years. But if in the strong they be fourscore years:

et maior pars eórum labor et dolor, * quóniam cito tránseunt, et avolámus.

and what is more of them is labour and sorrow. For mildness is come upon us: and we shall be corrected.

Quis novit potestátem iræ tuæ * et secúndum timórem tuum indignatiónem tuam?

Who knoweth the power of thy anger, and for thy fear

Dinumeráre dies nostros sic doce nos, * ut inducámus cor ad sapiéntiam.

can number thy wrath? So make thy right hand known: and men learned in heart, in wisdom.

Convértere, Dómine, úsquequo? * Et deprecábilis esto super servos tuos.

Return, O Lord, how long? and be entreated in favour of thy servants.

Reple nos mane misericórdia tua, * et exsultábimus et delectábimur ómnibus diébus nostris.

We are filled in the morning with thy mercy: and we have rejoiced, and are delighted all our days.

Lætífica nos pro diébus, quibus nos humiliásti, * pro annis, quibus vídimus mala.

We have rejoiced for the days in which thou hast humbled us: for the years in which we have seen evils.

Appáreat servis tuis opus tuum * et decor tuus fíliis eórum.

Look upon thy servants and upon their works: and direct their children.

Et sit splendor Dómini Dei nostri super nos, † et ópera mánuum nostrárum confírma super nos * et opus mánuum nostrárum confírma.

And let the brightness of the Lord our God be upon us: and direct thou the works of our hands over us; yea, the work of our hands do thou direct.

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.

De Libro Sirácidæ 5, 1-17

Ne innitáris possessiónibus tuis et ne díxeris: "Est mihi suffíciens vita." Ne sequáris fortitúdinem tuam, ut ámbules in concupiscéntiis cordis tui, et ne díxeris: "Quis prævalébit in me?" aut: "Quis me subíciet propter facta mea?" Deus enim víndicans vindicábit.

Ne díxeris: "Peccávi, et quid mihi áccidit triste?" Altíssimus enim est pátiens rédditor. De propitiáto peccáto noli esse sine metu neque adícias peccátum super peccátum et ne dicas: "Miserátio Dómini magna est, multitúdinis peccatórum meórum miserébitur"; misericórdia enim et ira ab illo cito próximant, et super peccatóres requiéscit ira illíus. Non tardes convérti ad Dóminum et ne dífferas de die in diem. Súbito enim véniet ira illíus, et in témpore vindíctæ abripiéris.

Ne innitáris divítiis iniústis, nihil enim prodérunt in die calamitátis. Non véntiles in omnem ventum et non eas in omnem viam; sic enim omnis peccátor probátur in dúplici lingua. Esto firmus in sensu tuo et in veritáte sensus tui et sciéntia; et prosequátur te verbum pacis et iustítiæ. Esto velox ad audiéndum verbum, ut intéllegas et cum tarditáte próferas respónsum. Si est tibi intelléctus, respónde próximo; sin autem, sit manus tua super os tuum, ne capiáris in verbo indisciplináto et confundáris. Honor et ignomínia in sermóne; lingua vero hómini subvérsio est ipsíus. Non appelléris susúrro, et lingua tua ne calumniéris. Super furem enim est confúsio, et denotátio péssima super bilínguem, susurratóri autem ódium et inimicítia et contumélia.

r. Præbe, fili, cor tuum mihi, et óculi tui vias meas custódiant, * Ut addátur grátia cápiti tuo. v. Atténde, fili mi, sapiéntiam meam, et ad elóquium meum inclína aurem tuam, * Ut addátur. v. Glória Patri. * Ut addátur.

In secundo nocturno, anno II

Ex libris Morálium sancti Gregórii Magni papæ (Lib. 24, 11, 28-29: CCL 143B 1207. 1208-1209)

Tres sunt modi conversórum: inchoátio, medíetas atque perféctio. In inchoatióne autem inveniúntur blandiménta dulcédinis, in médio quoque témpore certámina tentatiónis, ad extrémum vero perféctio plenitúdinis. Prius ergo illos dúlcia suscípiunt quæ consoléntur, póstmodum amára quæ exérceant; et tunc demum suávia atque sublímia quæ confírment. Nam et sponsam suam vir quisque prius dúlcibus blandiméntis fovet, quam tamen iam coniúnctam ásperis increpatiónibus probat, probátam vero secúris cogitatiónibus póssidet. Unde et plebs israelítica, cum spondénte se Deo ad sacras mentis núptias ex Ægýpto vocarétur, quasi arrhárum vice prius accépit blandiménta signórum; coniúncta autem, probatiónibus exercétur in erémo, probáta vero, in promissiónis terra virtútis plenitúdine confirmátur.

Ita ergo vitam uniuscuiúsque convérsi, et inchoátio blanda permúlcet, et áspera medíetas probat, et plena post perféctio róborat. Sæpe vero maius datur in inchoatióne dulcédinis, minus autem in labóre probatiónis; sæpe minus in inchoatióne dulcédinis, maius in labóre probatiónis. Numquam vero labórem tentatiónis dispar séquitur perféctio firmitátis, quia iuxta summam certáminis, remunerátur quisque plenitúdine perfectiónis.

Plerúmque autem in eo quisque convérsus lábitur quod dum quibúsdam donis grátiæ dulcédine inchoatiónis excípitur, confirmatiónem accepísse se perfectiónis arbitrátur, et plenitúdinem consummatiónis æstimat, quæ adhuc blandiménta esse inchoatiónis ignórat. Unde fit ut dum súbita tentatiónis procélla tángitur, despéctum se Deo et pérditum suspicétur. Qui si inchoatióni suæ non passim créderet, adhuc in prósperis pósitus, mentem ad advérsa præparáret, et vítiis veniéntibus póstmodum tam fírmius resísteret quam ea étiam sagácius prævidísset.

r. Verbum iníquum et dolósum longe fac a me, Dómine, divítias et paupertátes ne déderis mihi, * Sed tantum víctui meo tríbue necessária. v. Ne forte satiátus evómam illud, et periúrem nomen Dei mei. * Sed. v. Glória Patri. * Sed.

Orémus.

Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui abundántia pietátis tuæ et mérita súpplicum excédis et vota, † effúnde super nos misericórdiam tuam, * ut dimíttas quæ consciéntia métuit, et adícias quod orátio non præsúmit. Per Dóminum.

Eternal and almighty God, who in the prodigality of Thy goodness surpasses both the merits and the wishes of those who beseech Thou, pour out Thy mercy upon us, in order to drive away all that conscience fears and to supply what prayer dares not ask.
