My wounds have been filled with corruption and decay, by the effect of my folly.
Inclinátus sum et incurvátus nimis; * tota die contristátus ingrediébar.
I became miserable, and continually bent over; I walked sad all day.

For my loins have been filled with illusions, and there is naught healthy in my flesh.

I was afflicted and humiliated beyond measure, and the groan of my heart drew roars from me.
Dómine, ante te omne desidérium meum, * et gémitus meus a te non est abscónditus.
Lord, all my desire is before Thee, and my groaning is not hidden from Thee.

My heart is troubled, my strength has left me, and even the light of my eyes is no longer with me.
Amíci mei et próximi mei procul a plaga mea stetérunt, * et propínqui mei de longe stetérunt.
My friends and relatives walked up unto me, and stopped. Those who were near me stopped at a distance.

Ego autem tamquam surdus non audiébam * et sicut mutus non apériens os suum;
But I, as if I had been deaf, did not hearken; and as if I had been dumb, I did not open my mouth.

For in Thou, O Lord, I have hoped; Thou shalt hearken unto me, O Lord my God.
Quia dixi: « Ne quándo supergáudeant mihi; * dum commovéntur pedes mei, magnificántur super me ».
For I have said, Let not my enemies rejoice over me, they who, seeing my feet shaken, have spoken insolently of me.
Quóniam ego in lapsum parátus sum, * et dolor meus in conspéctu meo semper.
For I am prepared for punishments, and my sorrow is evermore before my eyes.
Quóniam iniquitátem meam annuntiábo * et sollícitus sum de peccáto meo.
For I will proclaim my iniquity, and I will evermore be occupied with the thought of my sin.

Yet my enemies live, and have become more powerful than I, and those who unjustly hate me have multiplied.
Retribuéntes mala pro bonis detrahébant mihi, * pro eo quod sequébar bonitátem.
Those who return evil for good decried me, forasmuch as I attached myself to good.
Ne derelínquas me, Dómine; * Deus meus, ne discésseris a me.
Forsake not me, O Lord my God; depart not from me.

De libro Iudith 12, 15 - 13, 8
Surgens Iudith exornávit se vestiménto suo et omni mulíebri ornátu, et præcéssit ancílla eius et stravit ei contra Holoférnen in terra strágula quæ accéperat a Bágoa in cotidiánum usum, ut manducáret discúmbens super ea. Et intróiens Iudith discúbuit. Et obstúpuit cor Holoférnis in eam, et commóta est ánima eius et erat concupíscens valde, ut concúmberet cum ea; quærebátque tempus seducéndi eam ex die quo víderat illam. Et dixit ad eam Holoférnes: "Bibe et esto nobíscum in iucunditátem." Et dixit Iudith: "Bibam, dómine, quia magnificáta est vita mea in me hódie præ ómnibus diébus nativitátis meæ." Et accípiens manducávit et bibit coram illo ea quæ præparáverat ipsi ancílla sua. Et iucunditátus est Holoférnes de ea et bibit multum vinum, quantum numquam bibit in uno die, ex quo natus est.
Et, ut vesper factus est, festinavérunt servi eius abíre, et Bágoas conclúsit tabernáculum a foris et dimísit astántes a fácie dómini sui. Et abiérunt omnes in cubília sua; erant enim omnes fatigáti, quóniam plúrimus factus erat potus. Derelícta est autem sola Iudith in tabernáculo, et Holoférnes procíderat in lectum suum; circúmfusum enim erat ei vinum. Et dixit Iudith ancíllæ suæ, ut staret extra cubículum et observáret éxitum eius sicut cotídie; exíre enim se dixit ad oratiónem suam, et Bágoæ locúta est secúndum verba hæc. Discesserúntque omnes a fácie, et nemo relíctus est in cubículo eius, a mínimo usque ad magnum.
Stans Iudith ad caput Holoférnis dixit: "Dómine, Dómine, Deus ómnium vírtutum, réspice in hac hora ad ópera mánuum meárum, ut exaltétur Ierúsalem. Quia nunc est tempus ut suscípias hereditátem tuam et fácias cogitatiónem meam in quassatiónem inimicórum qui insurrexérunt super nos."
Et áccedens ad colúmnam lectus quæ erat ad caput Holoférnis, depósuit pugiónem illíus ab illa. Et áccedens ad lectum comprehéndit comam cápitis eius et dixit: "Deus Israel, confírma me, Dómine, Deus Israel, in hoc die." Et percússit in cérvicem eius bis in vírtute sua et ábstulit caput eius ab eo.
r. Adonai, Dómine Deus magne et mirábilis, qui dedísti salútem in manu féminæ, * Exáudi preces servórum tuórum. v. Qui regis Israel, inténde, qui dedúcis velut ovem Ioseph, qui sedes super chérubim. * Exáudi. v. Glória Patri. * Exáudi.
In secundo nocturno, anno II
Ex Tractátu sancti Gregórii Nysséni epíscopi De institúto christiáno (PG 46, 295. 298)
Si quæ in Christo nova creatúra, vétera transiérunt. Céterum novam creatúram appellávit Spíritus Sancti inhabitatiónem in puro et inculpáto corde omníque malítia atque improbitáte ac dedécore líbero. Nam quando ánimus peccátum ódio prosecútus fúerit ac se pro víribus virtútis administratióni tradíderit atque cum vita commutátus Spíritus in se grátiam accéperit, novus efféctus est totus et reparátus atque instaurátus. Quin étiam istud: Expurgáte vetus ferméntum ut sitis nova conspársio, et hoc quoque: Epulémur, non in ferménto véteri, sed in ázymis sinceritátis et veritátis, hæc, inquam, cum iis quæ de nova creatúra dicta sunt cónsonant.
Enímvero multos tentátor ánimæ nostræ láqueos tendit; infírmior autem est per se humána natúra quam ut victóriam ex illo reportáre possit. Idcírco étiam Apóstolus armáre nos iubet membra armis cæléstibus. Indúite, inquit, lorícam iustítiæ, et calceáte pedes in præparatióne evangélii pacis, et state succíncti lumbos vestros in veritáte. In ómnibus suméntes scutum fídei. Deínde gáleam salútis assúmere hortátur, ac sanctum Spíritus gládium. Hunc autem dicit, Verbum in virtute Dei. Vidésne quot salútis modos Apóstolus tibi subindicárit, qui ad unam viam eamdémque metam tendunt.
Quocírca opus est eum qui huius vitæ res præcláras plane déspicit, et omnem mundánam glóriam ábnegat, étiam cum vita ánimam própriam abnegáre. Animæ vero abnegátio est, voluntátem suam nusquam quærere, sed Dei voluntátem, eáque véluti bona gubernatríce uti; deínde nihil nisi id quod commúne est possidére. Sic namque expedítius erit, quod a præpósitis iniúnctum erit, cum iucunditáte et spe alácriter perfícere, ut servum Christi, et ad commúnem fratrum usum redémptum. Hoc enim vult étiam Dóminus cum ait: Qui vult inter vos primus et magnus esse, ómnium sit postrémus et ómnium servus.
r. Vos qui in túrribus estis, aperíte portas: Dóminus omnípotens fecit virtútem, * Et victóriam dedit de inimícis nostris. v. Laudáte Dóminum Deum nostrum, qui non deséruit sperántes in se. * Et victóriam. v. Glória Patri. * Et victóriam.
Orémus.
Deus, qui omnipoténtiam tuam parcéndo máxime et miserándo maniféstas, † grátiam tuam super nos indesinénter infúnde, * ut, ad tua promíssa curréntes, cæléstium bonórum fácias esse consórtes. Per Dóminum.
God, who manifests above all Thy omnipotence by forgiving and showing mercy, pour out Thy grace unceasingly in us, so that, hastening towards Thy promises, we may become partakers of heavenly goods.
