Psalm 54 (55)
Contra perfidum amicum
Against a treacherous friend
Cœpit Iesus pavere et tædere (Mc 14, 33).
Jesus began to feel frightened and anxious (Mk 14:33).
I
I
Auribus pércipe, Deus, oratiónem meam † et ne abscondáris a deprecatióne mea; * inténde mihi et exáudi me.
O God, give ear to my prayer, do not shrink from my supplications. Hearken unto me and answer me!
Excússus sum in meditatióne mea et conturbátus sum * a voce inimíci et a tribulatióne peccatóris.
I wander here and there, plaintive and groaning, before the threats of the enemy, before the oppression of the wicked!
Quóniam devolvérunt in me iniquitátem * et in ira molésti erant mihi.
For they bring calamity upon me, and they pursue me with anger.
Cor meum torquétur intra me, * et formído mortis cécidit super me.
My heart trembles within me, and upon me the terrors of death descend.
Timor et tremor venérunt super me, * et contéxit me pavor.
Fear and terror assail me, and shudder envelops me.
Et dixi: «Quis dabit mihi pennas sicut colúmbæ, * et volábo et requiéscam?
And I said: Oh! if I had the wings of the dove, I would fly away and settle in repose;
Ecce elongábo fúgiens * et manébo in solitúdine.
behold, I shall flee far away, and I shall remain in solitude.
Exspectábo eum, qui salvum me fáciat * a spíritu procéllæ et tempestáte».
I would hasten to seek an asylum, far from the rushing wind, far from the hurricane.
Díssipa, Dómine, dívide línguas eórum, * quóniam vidi violéntiam et contentiónem in civitáte.
Destroy them, O Lord, divide their tongues! For I behold violence and discord in the city.
Die ac nocte circúmeunt eam super muros eius, † iníquitas et labor et insídiæ in médio eius; * et non defécit de platéis eius frauduléntia et dolus.
Day and night they go round its ramparts; iniquity and vexation are in her midst, perversity is in her bosom, oppression and cunning do not leave her places.
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.

For there is no change in them, and they have not the fear of God.
Exténdit manum suam in sócios; * contaminávit fœdus suum.
he lays his hand on those who were at peace with Him, he violates His covenant.
Lene super butyrum est os eius, * pugna autem cor illíus:
From his mouth come words sweet as milk, and war is in his heart.

And Thou, O God, will bring them down into the pit of perdition;

men of blood and cunning will not behold half their days; for my part, I put my trust in Thou.

De Libro Sirácidæ 17, 13-31
Viæ hóminum coram Deo sunt semper: non sunt abscónsæ ab óculis ipsíus. In unamquámque gentem præpósuit rectórem, et pars Dei Israel factus est. Et ómnia ópera illórum velut sol in conspéctu eius; et óculi eius sine intermissióne inspiciéntes in viis eórum. Non sunt abscónsæ iniquitátes illórum et ómnia peccáta eórum in conspéctu Dei. Eleemósyna viri quasi signáculum cum ipso, et grátiam hóminis quasi pupíllam conservábit. Et póstea resúrget et retríbuet illis et retributiónem unicuíque in caput ipsórum convértet. Pæniténtibus autem dedit viam réditus et confirmávit deficiéntes sustinére et destinávit illis sortem veritátis.
Convértere ad Dóminum et relínque peccáta tua; precáre ante fáciem Dómini et mínue offendícula. Revértere ad Altíssimum et avértere ab iniustítia tua et nimis odíto exsecratiónem. Et cognósce iustítias et iudícia Dei et sta in sorte propositiónis et oratiónis altíssimi Dei.
Altíssimum quis laudábit in ínferis pro vivis et dántibus confessiónem Deo? Non demoréris in erróre impiórum; ante mortem confitére: a mórtuo, quasi nihil sit, perit conféssio. Confitéberis vivens, vivus et sanus confitéberis et laudábis Deum et gloriáberis in miseratiónibus illíus. Quam magna misericórdia Dómini, et propitiátio illíus converténtibus ad se! Nec enim ómnia possunt esse in homínibus, quóniam non est immortális fílius hóminis. Quid lucídius sole? Et hic defíciet. Aut quid néquius quam quod excogitávit caro et sanguis? Et hoc arguétur. Virtútem altitúdinis cæli ipse cónspicit, et omnes hómines terra et cinis.
r. Audi, fili mi, disciplínam patris tui, et ne dimíttas legem matris tuæ, * Ut multiplicéntur tibi anni vitæ tuæ. v. Honóra Dóminum de tua substántia, et de primítiis frugum tuárum da paupéribus, * Ut multiplicéntur. v. Glória Patri. * Ut multiplicéntur.

Ex Expositióne sancti Gregórii Magni papæ in psalmum quinquagésimum (N. 1: PL 79, 582-583)
Agnósce intérius, vulneráte, médicum tuum, et ei peccatórum tuórum vúlnera détege. Audiat cordis tui gémitum, cui omne patet cogitatiónis arcánum. Móveant illum lácrimæ tuæ, et quadam illum importunitáte quæréndi, semper ad eum alta de profúndo cordis suspíria edúcito; pervéniat ad eum dolor tuus, ut dicátur étiam tibi: Tránstulit Dóminus peccátum tuum. Clama cum David; vide quid ipse díxerit: Miserére mei, Deus, secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam.
Quasi díceret: "Ingénti vúlnere períclitor, quod nullus medicórum curáre váleat, nisi médicus ille qui est omnípotens succúrrat." Omnipoténti enim médico nihil est insanábile; qui sicut medétur sine prétio, ita salútem restítuit verbo. Desperárem ergo de vúlnere, si non præsúmerem de omnipoténte. Miserére mei, Deus, secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam. Quærant parvam misericórdiam, qui ignoránter cóntrahunt culpam. Ego autem sicut gráviter cécidi, ita étiam sciénter peccávi. Sed tu, omnípotens médice, et contemptóres córrigis, et nesciéntes ínstruis, et confiténtibus ignóscis.
Utinam, Dómine Iesu, ad me misericórdia motus dignéris accédere, qui descéndens ab Ierúsalem in Iéricho, próruens scílicet de summis ad ínfima, de vitálibus ad infírma, in ángelos tenebrárum íncidi, qui non solum grátiæ spiritális mihi vestiméntum abstulérunt, sed étiam plagis impósitis semivívum reliquérunt. Utinam peccatórum meórum vúlnera, data mihi recuperándæ salútis fídúcia, álliges, ne detérius sæviant si sanári despérent. Utinam óleum mihi remissiónis adhíbeas, et vinum compunctiónis infúndas. Quod si in iuméntum tuum me imposúeris, de terra ínopem, páuperem de stercóre suscitábis. Tu es enim qui peccáta nostra pertulísti, qui pro nobis quæ non rapúeras exsolvísti. Si in stábulum me Ecclésiæ tuæ dúxeris, córporis et sánguinis tui me refectióne cibábis. Si curam mei égeris, nec præcépta tua prætéreo, nec freméntium rábiem bestiárum incúrro. Custódia enim tua indígeo, quámdiu carnem hanc corruptíbilem porto. Audi ergo me, Samaritáne, spoliátum et vulnerátum, flentem et geméntem, invocántem, et cum David clamántem: Miserére mei, Deus, secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam.
r. In princípio Deus, ántequam terram fáceret, priúsquam abýssos constitúeret, priúsquam prodúceret fontes aquárum, ántequam montes collocaréntur, * Ante omnes colles generávit me Dóminus. v. Ego in altíssimis hábito, et thronus meus in colúmna nubis. * Ante. v. Glória Patri. * Ante.

Effúnde super nos, quǽsumus, Dómine, spíritum, quo beátam Margarítam Maríam singuláriter ditásti, † ut scire valeámus supereminéntem sciéntiæ caritátem Christi, et impleámur in omnem plenitúdinem tuam. Per Dóminum.
