Lectio brevis (Phil 2,5-8)
Hoc sentíte in vobis, quod et in Christo Iesu: qui cum in forma Dei esset, non rapínam arbitrátus est esse se æquálem Deo, sed semetípsum exinanívit formam servi accípiens, in similitúdinem hóminum factus; et hábitu invéntus ut homo, humiliávit semetípsum factus obœ́diens usque ad mortem, mortem autem crucis.
For let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man. He humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross.
Verbum Dómini. r. Deo grátias.
Word of the Lord. r. Let us give thanks to God.
Sancta María et omnes Sancti intercédant pro nobis ad Dóminum, ut nos mereámur ab eo adiuvári et salvári, qui vivit et regnat in sǽcula sæculórum. r. Amen.
May Saint Mary and all the Saints intercede for us with the Lord, that we may deserve to be helped and saved by him who lives and reigns for ever and ever. r. Amen.
Absente sacerdote vel diacono, et in recitatione a solo, sic concluditur:
In the absence of a deacon or a priest, and in the recitation alone, it is concluded thus:
Dóminus nos benedícat, et ab omni malo deféndat, et ad vitam perdúcat ætérnam. r. Amen.
May the Lord bless us, forbid us from all evil, and bring us to eternal life. r. Amen.
Et fidélium ánimæ per misericórdiam Dei requiéscant in pace. r. Amen.
And may their souls rest in peace through the mercy of God. r. Amen.
v. Ite in pace. r. Deo grátias.
v. Go in peace. r. Let us give thanks to God.
