Commóta est et contrémuit terra; † fundaménta móntium concússa sunt et commóta sunt, * quóniam irátus est.
The earth shook and trembled: the foundations of the mountains were troubled and were moved, because he was angry with them.
Ascéndit fumus de náribus eius, † et ignis de ore eius dévorans; * carbónes succénsi processérunt ab eo.
There went up a smoke in his wrath: and a fire flamed from his face: coals were kindled by it.
Inclinávit cælos et descéndit, * et calígo sub pédibus eius.
He bowed the heavens, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.
Et ascéndit super cherub et volávit, * ferebátur super pennas ventórum.
And he ascended upon the cherubim, and he flew; he flew upon the wings of the winds.
Et pósuit ténebras latíbulum suum, † in circúitu eius tabernáculum eius, * tenebrósa aqua, nubes áeris.
And he made darkness his covert, his pavilion round about him: dark waters in the clouds of the air.
Præ fulgóre in conspéctu eius nubes transiérunt, * grando et carbónes ignis.
At the brightness that was before him the clouds passed, hail and coals of fire.
Et intónuit de cælo Dóminus, † et Altíssimus dedit vocem suam: * grando et carbónes ignis.
And the Lord thundered from heaven, and the highest gave his voice: hail and coals of fire.
Et misit sagíttas suas et dissipávit eos, * fúlgura iecit et conturbávit eos.
And he sent forth his arrows, and he scattered them: he multiplied lightnings, and troubled them.
Et apparuérunt fontes aquárum, * et reveláta sunt fundaménta orbis terrárum
16 Then the fountains of waters appeared, and the foundations of the world were discovered:
ab increpatióne tua, Dómine, * ab inspiratióne spíritus iræ tuæ.
At thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the spirit of thy wrath.
Misit de summo et accépit me * et assúmpsit me de aquis multis;
He sent from on high, and took me: and received me out of many waters.
erípuit me de inimícis meis fortíssimis † et ab his, qui odérunt me, * quóniam confortáti sunt super me.
He delivered me from my strongest enemies, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
Oppugnavérunt me in die afflictiónis meæ, * et factus est Dóminus fulciméntum meum;
They prevented me in the day of my affliction: and the Lord became my protector.
et edúxit me in latitúdinem, * salvum me fecit, quóniam vóluit me.
And he brought me forth into a large place: he saved me, because he was well pleased with me.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

And I shall be spotless with him: and shall keep myself from my iniquity.

De Libro Sirácidæ 35, 1-21
Qui consérvat legem, multíplicat oblatiónes: sacrifícium salutáre est atténdere mandátis. Qui retríbuit grátiam, offert similáginem, et qui facit eleemósynam, offert sacrifícium laudis. Beneplácitum est Dómino recédere ab iniquitáte, et deprecátio pro peccátis recédere ab iniustítia. Non apparébis ante conspéctum Dómini vácuus: hæc enim ómnia propter mandátum Dei fiunt. Oblátio iusti impínguat altáre, et odor suavitátis illíus in conspéctu Altíssimi; sacrifícium iusti accéptum est, et memóriam eius non obliviscétur Dóminus. Bono óculo glóriam redde Deo et non mínuas primítias mánuum tuárum; in omni dato hílarem fac vultum tuum et in exsultatióne sanctífica décimas tuas; da Altíssimo secúndum datum eius et in bono óculo ad inventiónem fácito mánuum tuárum, quóniam Dóminus retríbuens est et sépties tantum reddet tibi.
Noli offérre múnera prava, non enim suscípiet illa; et noli confídere in sacrifício iniústo, quóniam Dóminus iudex est, et non est apud illum glória persónæ. Non accípiet persónam in páuperem et deprecatiónem læsi exáudiet. Non despíciet preces pupílli nec víduam, si effúndat lóquelam gémitus. Nonne lácrimæ víduæ ad maxíllam descéndunt, et exclamátio eius super deducéntem eas? A maxílla enim ascéndunt usque ad cælum, et Dóminus exaudítor non delectábitur in illis.
Qui adórat Deum, in beneplácito suscipiétur, et deprecátio illíus usque ad nubes propinquábit. Orátio húmilis nubes penetrábit et, donec propínquet, non consolábitur; et non discédet, donec Altíssimus aspíciat et iudex iustus fáciat iudícium.
r. Da mihi, Dómine, sédium tuárum assistrícem sapiéntiam, et noli me reprobáre a púeris tuis; * Quóniam servus tuus sum ego, et fílius ancíllæ tuæ. v. Dómine, Pater et Deus vitæ meæ, ne derelínquas me in cogitátu malígno; * Quóniam. v. Glória Patri. * Quóniam.
In secundo nocturno, anno II
Ex Tractátu Nicólai Cabásilas De vita in Christo (Lib. 1: PG 150, 515)
Deus mórtuus est, Dei sanguis in cruce effúsus est. Quid hac morte pretiósius? Quid venerándum magis fíeri queat? Quod tantum scelus hóminum fuit, ut id elúere debéret ipsa iustítia? Quale vulnus, quod tam nóbile auxílium pósceret? Oportébat enim supplício áliquo peccátum aboléri, commissorúmque advérsus eum iusta pœna expénsa, accusatióne liberári. Nam qui pœnas suscépit, super iis propter quæ suscépit in iudícium ámplius non vocátur.
Hóminum vero reperiebátur nemo, qui ipse ínteger et a labe purus paterétur; quando nec sibi quidem ullus sufficiébat, neque genus humánum univérsum, si míllies mori licuísset, comméritum supplícium dare potuísset. Quid enim pro dignitáte patiátur servus impuríssimus, qui régiam imáginem contrívit, et in tantam celsitúdinem contumeliósus fuit? Idcírco Dóminus ipse, ab omni peccáto aliénus, multa nefánda perpéssus móritur; et homo hóminum causam patrociniúmque suscípiens, cruciátus éxcipit, et genus suum piáculis absólvit; compéditis libertátem donat, qua ipse, ut Deus et Dóminus, non egébat.
Quorum grátia ígitur vera vita per necem Salvatóris ad nos dimanárit, hæc sunt. Modus, quo hanc vitam in ánimas nostras derivémus, est, ut mystériis initiémur: nempe ut abluámur, ut inungámur, ut sacrosáncto convívio nos expleámus. Hæc qui fáciunt, ad eos Christus venit, in illis hábitat, illis copulátur et adhæréscit, et peccátum élidit, vitámque suam et strenuitátem impértit, in partem victóriæ suæ admíttit - o bonitátem! - lotos corónat, et cenántibus præcónium tríbuit .
r. Magna enim sunt iudícia tua, Dómine, et inenarrabília verba tua; * Magnificásti pópulum tuum et honorásti. v. Deduxísti sicut oves pópulum tuum in manu Móysi et Aaron. * Magnificásti. v. Glória Patri. * Magnificásti.
Orémus.
Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, † fac nos tibi semper et devótam gérere voluntátem, * et maiestáti tuæ sincéro corde servíre. Per Dóminum.
Eternal and almighty God, grant that we may evermore show devoted zeal to Thou and put ourselves at the service of Thy majesty with an undivided heart.
