Hymnus
Hæc fémina laudábilis et honoráta méritis, ut sanctis pollet móribus, triúmphat sic cum ángelis.
Ex corde devotíssimo orans Deum cum lácrimis, vigíliis, ieiúniis hærébat hæc assíduis.
Contémnens mundi glóriam ac mente semper íntegra, perféctam post iustítiam migrávit super sídera.
Quæ sanctitátis áctibus sua ditávit límina, lætátur nunc perpétuis cæléstis ædis præmiis.
Laus uni ac trino Dómino, qui nos eius precátibus, perácto vitæ término, coniúngat cæli cívibus. Amen.

Contra perfidum amicum

Auribus pércipe, Deus, oratiónem meam † et ne abscondáris a deprecatióne mea; * inténde mihi et exáudi me.
O God, give ear to my prayer, do not shrink from my supplications. Hearken unto me and answer me!
Excússus sum in meditatióne mea et conturbátus sum * a voce inimíci et a tribulatióne peccatóris.
I wander here and there, plaintive and groaning, before the threats of the enemy, before the oppression of the wicked!
Quóniam devolvérunt in me iniquitátem * et in ira molésti erant mihi.
For they bring calamity upon me, and they pursue me with anger.
Cor meum torquétur intra me, * et formído mortis cécidit super me.
My heart trembles within me, and upon me the terrors of death descend.
Timor et tremor venérunt super me, * et contéxit me pavor.
Fear and terror assail me, and shudder envelops me.
Et dixi: «Quis dabit mihi pennas sicut colúmbæ, * et volábo et requiéscam?
And I said: Oh! if I had the wings of the dove, I would fly away and settle in repose;
Ecce elongábo fúgiens * et manébo in solitúdine.
behold, I shall flee far away, and I shall remain in solitude.
Exspectábo eum, qui salvum me fáciat * a spíritu procéllæ et tempestáte».
I would hasten to seek an asylum, far from the rushing wind, far from the hurricane.
Díssipa, Dómine, dívide línguas eórum, * quóniam vidi violéntiam et contentiónem in civitáte.
Destroy them, O Lord, divide their tongues! For I behold violence and discord in the city.
Die ac nocte circúmeunt eam super muros eius, † iníquitas et labor et insídiæ in médio eius; * et non defécit de platéis eius frauduléntia et dolus.
Day and night they go round its ramparts; iniquity and vexation are in her midst, perversity is in her bosom, oppression and cunning do not leave her places.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

God will hearken, and He shall humble them, He who is before the ages.

For there is no change in them, and they have not the fear of God.
Exténdit manum suam in sócios; * contaminávit fœdus suum.
he lays his hand on those who were at peace with Him, he violates His covenant.

men of blood and cunning will not behold half their days; for my part, I put my trust in Thou.

In primo nocturno, anno I
De primo libro Regum
In Gábaon appáruit Dóminus Salomóni per sómnium nocte dicens: "Póstula quod vis, ut dem tibi." Ait Sálomon: "Tu fecísti cum servo tuo David patre meo misericórdiam magnam, sicut ambulávit in conspéctu tuo in veritáte et iustítia et recto corde tecum; custodísti ei misericórdiam tuam grandem et dedísti ei fílium sedéntem super thronum eius, sicut est hódie. Et nunc, Dómine Deus meus, tu regnáre fecísti servum tuum pro David patre meo."
"Ego [, Salomon,] autem sum puer parvus et ignórans egréssum et intróitum meum; et servus tuus in médio est pópuli quem elegísti, pópuli infiníti, qui numerári et supputári non potest præ multitúdine. Da ergo servo tuo cor dócile, ut iudicáre possit pópulum et discérnere inter bonum et malum. Quis enim potest iudicáre pópulum tuum hunc multum?"
Plácuit ergo sermo coram Dómino quod Sálomon rem huiuscémodi postulásset, et dixit Deus Salomóni: "Quia postulásti verbum hoc et non petísti tibi dies multos, nec divítias aut ánimam inimicórum tuórum, sed postulásti tibi sapiéntiam ad discernéndum iudícium, ecce feci tibi secúndum sermónes tuos et dedi tibi cor sápiens et intéllegens, in tantum ut nullus ante te símilis tui fúerit, nec post te surrectúrus sit; sed et hæc, quæ non postulásti, dedi tibi, divítias scílicet et glóriam, ut nemo fúerit símilis tui in régibus cunctis diébus tuis. Si autem ambuláveris in viis meis et custodíeris præcépta mea et mandáta mea, sicut ambulávit David pater tuus, longos fáciam dies tuos." Igitur evigilávit Sálomon et intelléxit quod esset sómnium. Cumque venísset Ierúsalem, stetit coram arca fderis Dómini et óbtulit holocáusta et fecit víctimas pacíficas et convívium univérsis fámulis suis.
r. Doctrínam sapiéntiæ dedi in corde tuo, dicit Dóminus, * Et exaudívi te ut prótegam civitátem istam et sit pax in diébus tuis. v. Elegísti, Dómine, príncipem et iúdicem pópulo tuo in civitáte tua. * Et exaudívi. v. Glória Patri. * Et exaudívi.
In secundo nocturno, anno I
Ex Commentário beáti Rabáni Mauri epíscopi in librum Sapiéntiæ (Cap. 5: PL 109, 704.708)
Sapientia attíngit a fine usque ad finem fórtiter, et dispónit ómnia suáviter. Unigénitus Fílius Dei coætérnus et coæquális per ómnia Patri et Spíritui Sancto. A fine usque ad finem, hoc est ab ætérno usque in ætérnum, attíngit fórtiter, quia virtus est Dei; et dispónit ómnia suáviter, quia idem ipsíus est sapiéntia, qui in Apocalýpsi Ioánnis ita ait: Ego sum Alpha et Omega, inítium et finis, dicit Dóminus Deus. Inítium, quem nullus præcédit; finis, cui nullus in regno succédit, qui est, qui erat, et ventúrus est Omnípotens.
Aliter, Sapiéntia attíngit a fine usque ad finem fórtiter, cum ab inítio creatiónis mundi usque ad advéntum Dómini, mirífica Dei ópera atque sincéra divínæ legis testimónia per Vetus Testaméntum fórtiter ásserit, et ab incarnatióne Verbi usque ad finem mundi dulcédinem divinórum mandatórum per Evangélium suáviter expónit. Unus ergo atque idem cónditor est utriúsque Testaménti, mediátor vidélicet Dei et hóminum, qui in Lege sui timórem et in Evangélio sui amórem eléctis suis commendávit. Unde elegánter Sapiéntia a fine usque ad finem fórtiter pertíngere dícitur.
Propósui hanc adiúngere mihi ad convivéndum, sciens quóniam communicávit mecum de bonis, et erit allocútio cogitatiónis et tædii mei. Plura narrans vir sápiens de virtútibus Sapiéntiæ, novíssime subiécit eius se societáti coniúngi desideráre, unde habéret consolatiónem et tædii sui levatiónem; ita et pópulus Ecclésiæ communicatiónem divínæ Sapiéntiæ, vidélicet Dómini Iesu Christi se habére congáudet, et in ipsíus ampléxu atque convívio spiritáli iúgiter manére deléctat, quem piíssimum ac benigníssimum esse novit et donórum cæléstium dispensatórem largíssimum. Unde idem in Apocalýpsi sancti Ioánnis lóquitur dicens: Ecce sto ad óstium et pulso; si quis audíerit vocem meam, et aperúerit iánuam, introíbo ad illum et cenábo cum illo, et ipse mecum.
r. Gyrum cæli circuívi sola et in flúctibus maris ambulávi; in omni gente et in omni pópulo primátum ténui; * Superbórum et sublímium colla, própria virtúte, calcávi. v. Ego in altíssimis hábito, et thronus meus in colúmna nubis. * Superbórum. v. Glória Patri. * Superbórum.
Orémus.
Dómine Deus noster, qui beátæ Birgíttæ, Fílii tui passiónem meditánti, secréta cæléstia revelásti, da nobis fámulis tuis in revelatióne glóriæ tuæ gaudére lætántes. Per Dóminum.
