De libro Isaíæ prophétæ

Hæc dicit Dóminus Deus: Clama fórtiter, ne cesses; quasi tuba exálta vocem tuam et annúntia pópulo meo scélera eórum et dómui Iacob peccáta eórum. Me étenim de die in diem quærunt et scire vias meas volunt, quasi gens quæ iustítiam fécerit et iudícium Dei sui non derelíquerit. Rogant me iudícia iustítiæ, appropinquáre Deum volunt. " Quare ieiunávimus et non aspexísti, humiliávimus ánimam nostram et nescísti? " Ecce in die ieiúnii vestri ágitis negótia et omnes operários vestros opprímitis. Ecce ad lites et contentiónes ieiunátis et percútitis pugno ímpie. Nolíte ieiunáre sicut hódie ut audiátur in excélso clamor vester.

Numquid tale est ieiúnium quod elégi, dies quo homo afflígit ánimam suam? Numquid contorquére quasi iuncum caput suum et saccum et cínerem stérnere? Numquid istud vocábis ieiúnium et diem acceptábilem Dómino? Nonne hoc est ieiúnium quod elégi: dissólvere víncula iníqua, sólvere funes iugi, dimíttere eos qui confrácti sunt líberos, et omne iugum dirúmpere? Nonne frángere esuriénti panem tuum, et egénos, vagos indúcere in domum? Cum víderis nudum, óperi eum et carnem tuam ne despéxeris. Tunc erúmpet quasi auróra lumen tuum, et sanátio tua cítius oriétur; et anteíbit fáciem tuam iustítia tua, et glória Dómini cólliget te. Tunc invocábis et Dóminus exáudiet, clamábis et dicet: " Ecce adsum. "

Si abstúleris de médio tui iugum et desíeris exténdere dígitum et loqui iniquitátem; si effúderis esuriénti ánimam tuam et ánimam afflíctam satiáveris, oriétur in ténebris lux tua, et calígo tua erit sicut merídies. Et te ducet Dóminus semper, et satiábit in locis áridis ánimam tuam et ossa tua firmábit; et eris quasi hortus irríguus et sicut fons aquárum cuius non defícient aquæ. Et reædificábit gens tua ruínas antíquas; fundaménta generatiónis et generatiónis suscitábis: et vocáberis restitútor ruinárum, instaurátor viárum ut habiténtur.

r. Frange esuriénti panem tuum, et egénos vagósque induc in domum tuam; * Tunc erúmpet quasi mane lumen tuum, et anteíbit fáciem tuam iustítia tua. v. Cum víderis nudum, óperi eum, et carnem tuam ne despéxeris. * Tunc erúmpet. v. Glória Patri. * Tunc erúmpet.

In secundo nocturno, anno I

Ex Sermónibus sancti Augustíni epíscopi (De sermone Domini in monte, lib. 2: CCL 35, 131)

Maniféstum est præcéptis Dómini omnem nostram intentiónem in interióra gáudia dírigi: ne foris quæréntes mercédem huic sæculo conformémur, et amittámus promissiónem tanto solidióris atque firmióris, quanto interióris beatitúdinis, qua nos elégit Deus confórmes fíeri imáginis Fílii sui. Máxime adverténdum est non in solo rerum corporeárum nitóre atque pompa, sed étiam in ipsis sórdibus luctuósis esse posse iactántiam; et eo periculosiórem, quo sub nómine servitútis Dei décipit.

Qui ergo immoderáto cultu córporis atque vestítu, vel ceterárum rerum nitóre præfúlget, fácile convíncitur rebus ipsis pompárum sæculi esse sectátor, nec quemquam fallit dolósa imágine sanctitátis. Qui autem in professióne christianitátis, inusitáto squalóre ac sórdibus, inténtos in se óculos hóminum facit, cum id voluntáte fáciat non necessitáte patiátur: céteris eius opéribus potest cónici, utrum hoc contémptu supérflui cultus, an ambitióne áliqua fáciat: quia et sub ovína pelle cavéndos lupos Dóminus præcépit: Sed ex frúctibus, inquit, eórum cognoscétis eos.

Cum enim cœperint alíquibus tentatiónibus ea ipsa scílicet illis súbtrahi vel negári, quæ isto velámine vel consecúti sunt, vel cónsequi cúpiunt: tunc necésse est ut appáreat utrum lupus in ovína pelle sit an ovis in sua. Non tamen proptérea ornátu supérfluo debet aspéctus hóminum mulcére christiánus, quia illum parcum hábitum ac necessárium étiam simulatóres spius usúrpant, ut incáutos decípiant: quia et illæ oves non debent pelles suas depónere, si aliquándo eis lupi se cóntegant.

r. Paradísi portas apéruit nobis ieiúnii tempus. Suscipiámus illud orántes et deprecántes, * Ut in die resurrectiónis cum Dómino gloriémur. v. Ecce nunc tempus acceptábile, ecce nunc dies salútis; némini dantes ullam offensiónem. * Ut in die. v. Glória Patri. * Ut in die.

Orémus.

Concéde nobis, Dómine, præsídia milítiæ christiánæ sanctis inchoáre ieiúniis, † ut, contra spiritáles nequítias pugnatúri, * continéntiæ muniámur auxíliis. Per Dóminum.

Grant us, Lord, to enter by holy fasts into the ranks of the Christian militia, so that, having to contend with evil spirits, we may be provided with the help that abstinence procures.
