126:4 Like arrows in the hand of the powerful, * so are the sons of those who have been cast out.

Capitulum Hymnus Versus
Joël 2:17
Inter vestíbulum et altáre plorábunt sacerdótes, minístri Dómini, et dicent: Parce, Dómine, parce pópulo tuo: et ne des hereditátem tuam in oppróbrium, ut dominéntur eis natiónes.
℟ Deo grátias.
Hymnus
Audi, benígne Cónditor,
Nostras preces cum flétibus,
In hoc sacro jejúnio
Fusas quadragenário.
Scrutátor alme córdium,
Infírma tu scis vírium:
Ad te revérsis éxhibe
Remissiónis grátiam.
Multum quidem peccávimus,
Sed parce confiténtibus:
Ad nóminis laudem tui
Confer medélam lánguidis.
Concéde nostrum cónteri
Corpus per abstinéntiam;
Culpæ ut relínquant pábulum
Jejúna corda críminum.
Præsta, beáta Trínitas,
Concéde, simplex Únitas;
Ut fructuósa sint tuis
Jejuniórum múnera.
Amen.
℣ Ángelis suis Deus mandávit de te.
℟ Ut custódiant te in ómnibus viis tuis.
Ioël 2:17
Between the vestibule and the altar, the priests, the ministers of the Lord, will weep, and they will say: 'Spare, O Lord, spare your people. And do not bequeath your inheritance into disgrace, so that the nations would rule over them.'
℟ Thanks be to God.
Hymn
O kind Creator, bow thine ear
To mark the cry, to know the tear
Before thy throne of mercy spent
In this thy holy fast of Lent.
Our hearts are open, Lord, to thee:
Thou knowest our infirmity;
Pour out on all who seek thy face
Abundance of thy pardoning grace.
Our sins are many, this we know;
Spare us, good Lord, thy mercy show;
And for the honour of thy name
Our fainting souls to life reclaim.
Give us the self-control that springs
From discipline of outward things,
That fasting inward secretly
The soul may purely dwell with thee.
We pray thee, Holy Trinity,
One God, unchanging Unity,
That we from this our abstinence
May reap the fruits of penitence.
Amen.
℣ God has given his Angels charge over you.
℟ To keep you in all your ways.
