Tu vero reppulísti et reiecísti, * irátus es contra christum tuum;
And yet Thou rejected and despised; Thou hast rejected Thy anointed one.
evertísti testaméntum servi tui, * profanásti in terram diadéma eius.
Thou hast destroyed the covenant made with Thy servant; Thou hast desecrated his sacred diadem by throwing him unto the ground.
Destruxísti omnes muros eius, * posuísti munitiónes eius in ruínas.
Thou hast pulled down all its fences; Thou hast filled his fortresses with fear.
Diripuérunt eum omnes transeúntes viam, * factus est oppróbrium vicínis suis.
All who passed by the road plundered him, and he became the reproach of his neighbors.
Exaltásti déxteram depriméntium eum, * lætificásti omnes inimícos eius.
Thou hast lifted up the right hand of his oppressors; Thou hast rejoiced all his enemies.
Avertísti áciem gládii eius * et non es auxiliátus ei in bello.
Thou hast taken all strength from his sword, and thou hast not helped him in war.
Finem posuísti splendóri eius * et sedem eius in terram collisísti.
Thou hast stripped it of its splendor, and thou hast broken its throne against the earth.

Keep in remembrance what my life is; for is it for nothingness that Thou hast created all the children of men?

Sit splendor Domini super nos
May the splendor of the Lord be upon us.
Unus dies apud Dominum sicut mille anni, et mille anni sicut dies unus (2 Petr 3, 8).
With the Lord, one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day.
Dómine, refúgium factus es nobis * a generatióne in generatiónem.
Lord, thou hast been our refuge from generation to generation.
Priúsquam montes nasceréntur † aut gignerétur terra et orbis, * a sǽculo et usque in sǽculum tu es Deus.
Before the mountains were made, or the earth and the world was formed; from eternity and to eternity thou art God.
Redúcis hóminem in púlverem; * et dixísti: «Revertímini, fílii hóminum».
Turn not man away to be brought low: and thou hast said: Be converted, O ye sons of men.
Quóniam mille anni ante óculos tuos tamquam dies hestérna, quæ prætériit, * et custódia in nocte.
For a thousand years in thy sight are as yesterday, which is past. And as a watch in the night,
Auferes eos, sómnium erunt: * mane sicut herba succréscens,
things that are counted nothing, shall their years be. In the morning man shall grow up like grass;
mane floret et crescit, * véspere décidit et aréscit.
in the morning he shall flourish and pass away: in the evening he shall fall, grow dry, and wither.
Quia defécimus in ira tua * et in furóre tuo turbáti sumus.
For in thy wrath we have fainted away: and are troubled in thy indignation.
Posuísti iniquitátes nostras in conspéctu tuo, * occúlta nostra in illuminatióne vultus tui.
Thou hast set our iniquities before thy eyes: our life in the light of thy countenance.
Quóniam omnes dies nostri evanuérunt in ira tua, * consúmpsimus ut suspírium annos nostros.
For all our days are spent; and in thy wrath we have fainted away. Our years shall be considered as a spider:
Dies annórum nostrórum sunt septuagínta anni * aut in valéntibus octogínta anni,
the days of our years in them are threescore and ten years. But if in the strong they be fourscore years:
et maior pars eórum labor et dolor, * quóniam cito tránseunt, et avolámus.
and what is more of them is labour and sorrow. For mildness is come upon us: and we shall be corrected.
Quis novit potestátem iræ tuæ * et secúndum timórem tuum indignatiónem tuam?
Who knoweth the power of thy anger, and for thy fear
Dinumeráre dies nostros sic doce nos, * ut inducámus cor ad sapiéntiam.
can number thy wrath? So make thy right hand known: and men learned in heart, in wisdom.
Convértere, Dómine, úsquequo? * Et deprecábilis esto super servos tuos.
Return, O Lord, how long? and be entreated in favour of thy servants.
Reple nos mane misericórdia tua, * et exsultábimus et delectábimur ómnibus diébus nostris.
We are filled in the morning with thy mercy: and we have rejoiced, and are delighted all our days.
Lætífica nos pro diébus, quibus nos humiliásti, * pro annis, quibus vídimus mala.
We have rejoiced for the days in which thou hast humbled us: for the years in which we have seen evils.
Appáreat servis tuis opus tuum * et decor tuus fíliis eórum.
Look upon thy servants and upon their works: and direct their children.
Et sit splendor Dómini Dei nostri super nos, † et ópera mánuum nostrárum confírma super nos * et opus mánuum nostrárum confírma.
And let the brightness of the Lord our God be upon us: and direct thou the works of our hands over us; yea, the work of our hands do thou direct.

De Epístula beáti Pauli apóstoli ad Romános
Fratres, volúntas quidem cordis mei et obsecrátio ad Deum pro Iudæis in salútem. Testimónium enim perhíbeo illis quod æmulatiónem Dei habent, sed non secúndum sciéntiam; ignorántes enim Dei iustítiam et suam iustítiam quæréntes statúere, iustítiæ Dei non sunt subiécti; finis enim legis Christus ad iustítiam omni credénti. Móyses enim scribit de iustítia, quæ ex lege est: Qui fécerit homo, vivet in eis. Quæ autem ex fide est iustítia, sic dicit: Ne díxeris in corde tuo: Quis ascéndet in cælum? id est Christum dedúcere; aut: Quis descéndet in abýssum? hoc est Christum ex mórtuis revocáre. Sed quid dicit? Prope te est verbum, in ore tuo et in corde tuo; hoc est verbum fídei, quod prædicámus. Quia si confiteáris in ore tuo: Dóminum Iesum! et in corde tuo credíderis quod Deus illum excitávit ex mórtuis, salvus eris. Corde enim créditur ad iustítiam, ore autem conféssio fit in salútem. Dicit enim Scriptúra: " Omnis, qui credit in illo, non confundétur".
NON enim est distínctio Iudæi et Græci, nam idem Dóminus ómnium, dives in omnes qui ínvocant illum: Omnis enim, quicúmque invocáverit nomen Dómini, salvus erit. Quómodo ergo invocábunt, in quem non credidérunt? Aut quómodo credent ei, quem non audiérunt? Quómodo autem áudient sine prædicánte? Quómodo vero prædicábunt nisi mittántur? Sicut scriptum est: Quam speciósi pedes evangelizántium bona.
Sed non omnes obœdiérunt evangélio; Isaías enim dicit: Dómine, quis crédidit audítui nostro? Ergo fides ex audítu, audítus autem per verbum Christi. Sed dico: Numquid non audiérunt? Quin immo, in omnem terram éxiit sonus eórum, et in fines orbis terræ verba eórum. Sed dico: Numquid Israel non cognóvit? Primus Móyses dicit: Ego ad æmulatiónem vos addúcam per Non gentem: per gentem insipiéntem ad iram vos provocábo. Isaías autem audet et dicit: Invéntus sum in non quæréntibus me; palam appárui his, qui me non interrogábant. Ad Israel autem dicit: Tota die expándi manus meas ad pópulum non credéntem et contradicéntem.
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 Collatiónibus sancti Thomæ de Aquíno presbýteri(Coll. 6 super Credo in Deum)
Quæ necéssitas quod Fílius Dei pro nobis paterétur? Magna, et potest cólligi duplex necéssitas; una est ad remédium contra peccáta, ália est ad exémplum quantum ad agénda. Ad remédium quidem quia contra ómnia mala, quæ incúrrimus propter peccáta, invenímus remédium per passiónem Christi. Sed non minor est utílitas quantum ad exémplum. Nam pássio Christi súfficit ad informándum totáliter vitam nostram. Quicúmque enim vult perfécte vívere, nihil áliud fáciat nisi ut contémnat quæ Christus in cruce contémpsit et áppetat quæ Christus appétiit. Nullum enim virtútis exémplum abest a cruce.
Si enim quæris exémplum caritátis: Maiórem caritátem nemo habet ut ánimam suam ponat quis pro amícis suis. Hoc Christus in cruce. Et ídeo si pro nobis dedit ánimam suam, non debet esse grave sustinére quæcúmque mala pro eo. Si quæris patiéntiam, excelléntior in cruce invenítur. Patiéntia enim ex duóbus rédditur magna, aut cum magna quis patiénter suffert, aut cum ea suffert quæ vitáre posset et non vitat. Sed Christus magna pértulit in cruce, et patiénter, quia cum paterétur non comminabátur; tamquam ovis ad víctimam ductus est et non apéruit os suum. Magna ergo est patiéntia Christi in cruce: per patiéntiam currámus ad propósitum nobis certámen, aspiciéntes in auctórem fídei et consummatórem Iesum, qui propósito sibi gáudio sustínuit crucem, confusióne contémpta.
Si quæris exémplum humilitátis, réspice crucifíxum: nam Deus vóluit iudicári sub Póntio Piláto et mori. Si quæris exémplum obœdiéntiæ, séquere eum qui factus est obœdiens Patri usque ad mortem: Sicut enim per inobœdiéntiam uníus, scílicet Adæ, peccatóres constitúti sunt multi, ita per uníus obœdiéntiam iusti constituéntur multi. Si quæris exémplum contemnéndi terréna, séquere eum qui est rex regum et dóminus dominántium, in quo sunt omnes thesáuri sapiéntiæ et sciéntiæ abscónditi, in cruce nudátum, delúsum, conspútum, cæsum, spinis coronátum et demum acéto et felle potátum.
Orémus.
Deus, qui beátum Thomam sanctitátis zelo ac sacræ doctrínæ stúdio conspícuum effecísti, † da nobis, quǽsumus, * et quæ dócuit intelléctu conspícere, et quæ gessit imitatióne complére. Per Dóminum.
God, who made Blessed Thomas famous by his zeal for holiness and application to sacred doctrine; deign to give us the grace to penetrate with intelligence what he taught and to imitate to perfection what he accomplished.
