Imménsæ rex poténtiæ, Christe, tu Patris glóriam nostrúmque decus móliens, mortis fregísti iácula.

O, Christ, the King of boundless of might, You rendered glory unto God And made us fitting in his sight By shattering death's bitter rod.

Infírma nostra súbiens magnúmque petens prœlium, mortem qua serpens vícerat, victor calcásti móriens.

Our weakness you once came to meet And, conquering, the battle fought, Who, dying, crushed beneath your feet The victory the serpent wrought.

Surgens fortis e túmulo, pascháli nos mystério peccáto rursus mórtuos ad vitam semper ínnovas.

Our Champion, you rose again, And by your paschal mystery Have granted us, once dead through sin, A life renewed eternally.

Vitam largíre grátiæ, ut, sponsus cum redíeris, ornáta nos cum lámpade iam promptos cælo invénias.

Bestow on us this life of grace That when, O Bridegroom, you return, We may be found before your face Awake with lamps that brightly burn.

In lucem nos et réquiem serénus iudex áccipe, quos fides sanctæ Tríadi devínxit atque cáritas.

Lead us, Just Judge, into your rest, Since we confess the Trinity; Bestow on us your splendor blest, Who live in faith and charity.

Custos populi

People's Guard

Non esurient amplius, neque sitient amplius, neque cadet super illos sol neque ullus æstus (Ap 7, 16).

They shall hunger no more, they shall thirst no more, the burning of the sun shall overwhelm them no more (Rev 7:16).

Levábo óculos meos in montes: * unde véniet auxílium mihi?

I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains, from whence help shall come to me.

Auxílium meum a Dómino, * qui fecit cælum et terram.

My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Non dabit in commotiónem pedem tuum, * neque dormitábit, qui custódit te.

May he not suffer thy foot to be moved: neither let him slumber that keepeth thee.

Ecce non dormitábit neque dórmiet, * qui custódit Israel.

Behold he shall neither slumber nor sleep, that keepeth Israel.

Dóminus custódit te, † Dóminus umbráculum tuum, * ad manum déxteram tuam.

The Lord is thy keeper, the Lord is thy protection upon thy right hand.

Per diem sol non percútiet te, * neque luna per noctem.

The sun shall not burn thee by day: nor the moon by night.

Dóminus custódiet te ab omni malo; * custódiet ánimam tuam Dóminus.

The Lord keepeth thee from all evil: may the Lord keep thy soul.

Dóminus custódiet intróitum tuum et éxitum tuum * ex hoc nunc et usque in sǽculum.

May the Lord keep thy coming in and thy going out; from henceforth now and for ever.

De profundis clamavi

From the depths of the abyss, I cry out

Ipse salvum faciet populum suum a peccatis eorum (Mt 1, 21).

Behold, He will free His people from their sins (Mt 1:21).

De profúndis clamávi ad te, Dómine; * Dómine, exáudi vocem meam.

Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord: Lord, hear my voice.

Fiant aures tuæ intendéntes * in vocem deprecatiónis meæ.

Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

Si iniquitátes observáveris, Dómine, * Dómine, quis sustinébit?

If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.

Quia apud te propitiátio est, * ut timeámus te.

For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord.

Sustínui te, Dómine, * sustínuit ánima mea in verbo eius;

My soul hath relied on his word: my soul hath hoped in the Lord.

sperávit ánima mea in Dómino * magis quam custódes auróram.

From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

Magis quam custódes auróram * speret Israel in Dómino,

More than the guards wait for the dawn, let Israel hope in the Lord,

quia apud Dóminum misericórdia, * et copiósa apud eum redémptio.

Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.

Et ipse rédimet Israel * ex ómnibus iniquitátibus eius.

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Canticum (Phil 2, 6-11)

Song (Phil 2:6-11)

De Christo, servo Dei

Christ, servant of God

Christus Iesus, cum in forma Dei esset, * non rapínam arbitrátus est esse se æquálem Deo,

Christ Jesus, although He was in the condition of God, did not retain of Himself His equality with God,

sed semetípsum exinanívit formam servi accípiens,† in similitúdinem hóminum factus; * et hábitu invéntus ut homo,

but He emptied Himself, taking the form of a slave, making Himself like men; recognized as a man by all that has appeared of Him,

humiliávit semetípsum † factus obœdiens usque ad mortem, * mortem autem crucis.

He humbled Himself, making Himself obedient unto death, and unto the death of the cross.

Propter quod et Deus illum exaltávit † et donávit illi nomen, * quod est super omne nomen,

Wherefore also God has exalted Him, and has given Him the name which is above every name,

ut in nómine Iesu omne genu flectátur * cæléstium et terréstrium et infernórum

so that in the Name of Jesus every knee may bow in heaven and on earth and in hell,

et omnis língua confiteátur: * «Dóminus Iesus Christus!», in glóriam Dei Patris.

and let every tongue confess, "Jesus Christ is Lord!" unto the glory of God the Father.

Lectio brevis (1 Cor 15, 55-57)

«Ubi est, mors, victória tua? Ubi est, mors, stímulus tuus?». Stímulus autem mortis peccátum est, virtus vero peccáti lex. Deo autem grátias, qui dedit nobis victóriam per Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum.

O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting? Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
