Blessed are the poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

Ut quid, Dómine, stas a longe, * abscóndis te in opportunitátibus, in tribulatióne?
Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?
Dum supérbit, ímpius inséquitur páuperem; * comprehendántur in consíliis, quæ cógitant.
Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise.
Quóniam gloriátur peccátor in desidériis ánimæ suæ, * et avárus sibi benedícit.
For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed.
Spernit Dóminum peccátor in arrogántia sua: * Non requíret, non est Deus."
The sinner hath provoked the Lord, according to the multitude of his wrath he will not seek him:
Hæ sunt omnes cogitatiónes eius; * prosperántur viæ illíus in omni témpore.
God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times.
Excélsa nimis iudícia tua a fácie eius; * omnes inimícos suos aspernátur.
Thy judgments are removed from his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies.
Dixit enim in corde suo: « Non movébor, * in generatiónem et generatiónem ero sine malo ».
For he hath said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.
Cuius maledictióne os plenum est et frauduléntia et dolo, * sub lingua eius labor et nequítia.
His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.
Sedet in insídiis ad vicos, * in occúltis intérficit innocéntem.
He sitteth in ambush with the rich in private places, that he may kill the innocent.
Oculi eius in páuperem respíciunt. * Insidiátur in abscóndito quasi leo in spelúnca sua.
His eyes are upon the poor man: he lieth in wait in secret like a lion in his den.
Insidiátur, ut rápiat páuperem; * rapit páuperem, dum áttrahit in láqueum suum.
He lieth in ambush that he may catch the poor man: to catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.
Irruit et inclínat se, et míseri cadunt * in fortitúdine brachiórum eius.
In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.
Dixit enim in corde suo: « Oblítus est Deus; * avértit fáciem suam, non vidébit in finem ».
For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face, not to see to the end.
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.
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, and ever shall be. Amen.

Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.
Propter quid spernit ímpius Deum? * Dixit enim in corde suo: "Non requíres".
Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.

Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands.

To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.
Cóntere bráchium peccatóris et malígni; * quæres peccátum illíus et non invénies.
Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.
Dóminus rex in ætérnum et in sǽculum sǽculi: * periérunt gentes de terra illíus.
The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.
Desidérium páuperum exaudísti, Dómine; * confirmábis cor eórum, inténdes aurem tuam
The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.
iudicáre pupíllo et húmili, * ut non appónat ultra indúcere timórem homo de terra.
To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.

Propter nos pauperes Pater Filium dignatus est mittere. (S. Augustinus)
For us poor, the Father deigned to send His Son (S. Augustine)
Salvum me fac, Dómine, quóniam defécit sanctus, * quóniam deminúti sunt fidéles a fíliis hóminum.
Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: truths are decayed from among the children of men.
Vana locúti sunt unusquísque ad próximum suum; * in lábiis dolósis, in dúplici corde locúti sunt.
They have spoken vain things every one to his neighbour: with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.
Dispérdat Dóminus univérsa lábia dolósa * et linguam magníloquam.
May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things.
Qui dixérunt: "Lingua nostra magnificábimur, † lábia nostra a nobis sunt; * quis noster dóminus est?"
Who have said: We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own; who is Lord over us?
"Propter misériam ínopum et gémitum páuperum, † nunc exsúrgam, dicit Dóminus; * ponam in salutári illum, quem despíciunt."
By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, now will I arise, saith the Lord. I will set him in safety; I will deal confidently in his regard.
Elóquia Dómini elóquia casta, * argéntum igne examinátum, separátum a terra, purgátum séptuplum.
The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth, refined seven times.

Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us: and keep us from this generation for ever.

De libro Génesis
Audiens Iacob quod aliménta venderéntur in Ægýpto, dixit fíliis suis: " Quare aspícitis vos ínvicem? Audívi quod tríticum venumdétur in Ægýpto; descéndite et émite nobis necessária, ut possímus vívere et non consumámur inópia. " Descendérunt ígitur fratres Ioseph decem, ut émerent fruménta in Ægýpto, Béniamin fratre Ioseph domi reténto a Iacob, qui díxerat frátribus eius: " Ne forte in itínere quidquam patiátur mali. " Et ingréssi sunt fílii Israel terram Ægýpti cum áliis qui pergébant ad eméndum. Erat autem fames in terra Chánaan.
Et Ioseph erat princeps in terra Ægýpti, atque ad eius nutum fruménta pópulis vendebántur. Cumque veníssent et adorássent eum fratres sui proni in terram, et agnovísset eos, quasi ad aliénos dúrius loquebátur intérrogans eos: " Unde venístis? " Qui respondérunt: " De terra Chánaan, ut emámus víctui necessária. " Et tamen fratres ipse cognóscens non est cógnitus ab eis. Recordatúsque somniórum quæ aliquándo víderat, ait ad eos: " Exploratóres estis; ut videátis infirmióra terræ venístis! " Qui dixérunt: " Non est ita, dómine; sed servi tui venérunt ut émerent cibos. Omnes fílii uníus viri sumus; sincéri sumus, nec quidquam fámuli tui machinántur mali. " Quibus ille respóndit: " Aliter est; immuníta terræ huius consideráre venístis! " At illi: " Duódecim, ínquiunt, servi tui fratres sumus fílii viri uníus in terra Chánaan; mínimus cum patre nostro est, álius non est super. "
"Hoc est, ait, quod locútus sum: exploratóres estis! Iam nunc experiméntum vestri cápiam: per salútem pharaónis, non egrediémini hinc donec véniat frater vester mínimus! Míttite ex vobis unum et addúcat eum; vos autem éritis in vínculis donec probéntur quæ dixístis, utrum vera an falsa sint. Alióquin, per salútem pharaónis, exploratóres estis! " Trádidit ergo illos custódiæ tribus diébus.
r. Meménto mei, dum bene tibi fúerit, * Ut súggeras Pharaóni, ut edúcat me de isto cárcere; quia furtim sublátus sum, et hic ínnocens in lacum missus sum. v. Tres enim adhuc dies sunt, post quos recordábitur Phárao ministérii tui et revócat te in gradum prístinum; tunc meménto mei, * Ut súggeras. v. Glória Patri. * Ut súggeras.
In secundo nocturno, anno II
Ex Homilíis Orígenis presbýteri in Lucam (Hom. 28, 5-6: SC 87, 356-359)
Ioseph trigínta annórum erat, quando dimíssus est e vínculis et, interpretátus sómnium Pharaónis Ægýpti, efféctus est princeps; ubertatísque témpore tríticum congregávit, ut famis témpore habéret, quod distribúeret. Ego puto, quod trigínta anni Ioseph in typo trigínta annórum præcésserint Salvatóris. Iste enim Ioseph non tale tríticum congregávit, quale in Ægýpto ille Ioseph, sed tríticum verum atque cæléste, ut témpore ubertátis trítico congregáto habéret, quod distribúeret, cum fames esset missa in Ægýptum, non fames panis neque sitis aquæ, sed fames audiéndi sermónem Dei.
Congrégat ítaque de prophétis, de lege, de apóstolis, verba abundántiæ, ut quando iam non scribúntur libri nec novum áliquod confícitur instruméntum nec mittúntur apóstoli, ea, quæ ab Iesu in hórrea apostolórum fúerant comportáta, hoc est in ánimas eórum omniúmque sanctórum, tunc distríbuat et nútriat Ægýptum fame periclitántem maximéque fratres suos, de quibus scríbitur: Narrábo nomen tuum frátribus meis, in médio ecclésiæ cantábo te.
Habent et álii hómines verba patiéntiæ verbáque iustítiæ et reliquárum verba virtútum; hoc est tríticum, quod Ioseph Ægýptiis distríbuit. Sed áliud est fruméntum, quod dat frátribus, id est discípulis suis, de Gessen terra, de ea, quæ ad oriéntem réspicit: tríticum evangélicum, tríticum apostólicum. De hoc trítico debémus panes fácere, ita tamen, ut non commisceántur véteri ferménto habeamúsque panem novum de Scripturárum trítico farináque commolítum in Christo Iesu: cui est glória et impérium in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.
r. Lamentabátur Iacob de duóbus fíliis suis: Heu me! Dolens sum de Ioseph pérdito, et tristis nimis de Béniamin ducto pro alimóniis. * Precor cæléstem Regem, ut me doléntem nímium fáciat eos cérnere. v. Prostérnens se Iacob veheménter cum lácrimis, pronus in terra et exórans, ait: * Precor. v. Glória Patri. * Precor.
 
Orémus.
Deus, qui beátam Iosephínam a servitúte abiécta ad dignitátem fíliæ tuæ et Christi sponsæ adduxísti, * da nobis, quǽsumus, eius exémplo, * Dóminum Iesum crucifíxum constánti dilectióne prósequi et in caritáte ad misericórdiam propénsos perseveráre. Per Dóminum.
