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.

Dilatásti gressus meos subtus me, * et non sunt infirmáta vestígia mea.
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; and my feet are not weakened.
Persequébar inimícos meos et comprehendébam illos * et non convertébar, donec defícerent.
I will pursue after my enemies, and overtake them: and I will not turn again till they are consumed.
Confringébam illos, nec póterant stare, * cadébant subtus pedes meos.
I will break them, and they shall not be able to stand: they shall fall under my feet.
Et præcinxísti me virtúte ad bellum * et supplantásti insurgéntes in me subtus me.
And thou hast girded me with strength unto battle; and hast subdued under me them that rose up against me.
Et inimícos meos dedísti mihi dorsum * et odiéntes me disperdidísti.
And thou hast made my enemies turn their back upon me, and hast destroyed them that hated me.
Clamavérunt, nec erat qui salvos fáceret, * ad Dóminum, nec exaudívit eos.
They cried, but there was none to save them, to the Lord: but he heard them not.
Et commínui eos ut púlverem ante fáciem venti, * ut lutum plateárum contrívi eos.
And I shall beat them as small as the dust before the wind; I shall bring them to nought, like the dirt in the streets.
Eripuísti me de contradictiónibus pópuli, * constituísti me in caput géntium.
Thou wilt deliver me from the contradictions of the people: thou wilt make me head of the Gentiles.
Pópulus, quem non cognóvi, servívit mihi, * in audítu auris obœdívit mihi.
A people, which I knew not, hath served me: at the hearing of the ear they have obeyed me.
Fílii aliéni blandíti sunt mihi, † fílii aliéni inveteráti sunt, * contremuérunt in ábditis suis.
The children that are strangers have lied to me, strange children have faded away, and have halted from their paths.

De Epístula beáti Pauli apóstoli ad Romános
Si tu Iudæus cognomináris et requiéscis in lege et gloriáris in Deo, et nosti Voluntátem et discérnis potióra instrúctus per legem, et confídis teípsum ducem esse cæcórum, lumen eórum qui in ténebris sunt, eruditórem insipiéntium, magístrum infántium, habéntem formam sciéntiæ et veritátis in lege. Qui ergo álium doces, teípsum non doces? Qui prædicas non furándum, furáris? Qui dicis non mœchándum, mœcháris? Qui abomináris idóla, templa spólias? Qui in lege gloriáris, per prævaricatiónem legis Deum inhonóras? Nomen enim Dei propter vos blasphemátur inter gentes, sicut scriptum est.
Circumcísio quidem prodest, si legem obsérves; si autem prævaricátor legis sis, circumcísio tua præpútium facta est. Si ígitur præpútium iustítias legis custódiat, nonne præpútium illíus in circumcisiónem reputábitur?
Et iudicábit, quod ex natúra est præpútium legem consúmmans, te, qui per lítteram et circumcisiónem prævaricátor legis es. Non enim, qui manifésto Iudus est, neque quæ manifésto in carne circumcísio, sed qui in abscóndito Iudæus est, et circumcísio cordis in spíritu non líttera, cuius laus non ex homínibus sed ex Deo est.
r. Dómine Deus, propítius esto pópulo tuo, * Et convérte tribulatiónem nostram in gáudium. v. Adiuva nos, Deus salutáris noster; propter glóriam nóminis tui, Dómine, líbera nos. * Et convérte. v. Glória Patri. * Et convérte.

Ex Tractátibus sancti Augustíni epíscopi in Ioánnem (Tract. 41, 5: CCL 36, 360)
Liberat a servitúte peccáti solus Dóminus; qui illam non hábuit, ipse de illa líberat; solus enim in hac carne venit sine peccáto. Nam quos vidétis in mánibus matrum párvulos ferri, nondum ámbulant, et iam sunt compedíti; traxérunt enim de Adam quod solvátur a Christo. Pértinet étiam ad ipsos, cum baptizántur, ista grátia quam Dóminus pollicétur; quia de peccáto solus liberáre potest qui venit sine peccáto, et factus est sacrifícium pro peccáto.
Audístis enim cum Apóstolus legerétur: Pro Christo, inquit, legatióne fúngimur, tamquam Deo exhortánte per nos; obsecrámus pro Christo; id est tamquam vos Christus óbsecret. Quid? reconciliári Deo. Si exhortátur et óbsecrat Apóstolus ut reconciliémur Deo, inimíci erámus Deo. Nemo enim reconciliátur, nisi ex inimicítiis. Inimícos autem nos non natúra, sed peccáta fecérunt. Unde inimíci illíus, inde servi peccáti. Non habet Deus líberos inimícos; necésse est servi sint, et servi remanébunt, nisi ab illo liberéntur, cui peccándo inimíci esse voluérunt.
Obsecrámus ergo, inquit, pro Christo, reconciliári Deo. Quómodo autem reconciliámur, nisi solvátur quod inter nos et ipsum séparat? Ait enim per prophétam: Non gravávit aurem ne áudiat, sed peccáta vestra séparant inter vos et Deum. Quia ergo non reconciliámur, nisi abláto quod in médio est, et pósito quod in médio sit - est enim médium séparans, sed contra est mediátor reconcílians; médium séparans est peccátum, mediátor reconcílians est Dóminus Iesus Christus: Unus enim Deus, et unus mediátor Dei et hóminum, homo Christus Iesus - ut ergo tollátur macéria séparans quod est peccátum, venit ille mediátor, et factus est sacrifícium sacérdos ipse.
r. Rogámus te, Dómine Deus, quia peccávimus tibi; véniam pétimus quam non merémur. Si exspéctas non corrípimur, et si víndicas non durámus. * Manum tuam pórrige lapsis, qui latróni confiténti paradísi iánuas aperuísti. v. Vita nostra in dolóre suspírat, et in ópere non eméndat. * Manum tuam. v. Glória Patri. * Manum tuam.
 
Orémus.
Vota, quǽsumus, Dómine, supplicántis pópuli cælésti pietáte proséquere, † ut et quæ agénda sunt vídeant, * et ad implénda quæ víderint convaléscant. Per Dóminum.
We pray Thou, Lord, to hearken in Thy heavenly goodness the homage of Thy supplicating people, that Thy faithful may behold what their duties are and that they may have the strength to accomplish what they have seen.
