Hymnus
Rerum, Deus, tenax vigor,
Immótus in te pérmanens,
Lucis diúrnæ témpora
Succéssibus detérminans:
Largíre lumen véspere,
Quo vita nusquam décidat,
Sed prǽmium mortis sacræ
Perénnis instet glória.
Præsta, Pater piíssime,
Patríque compar Únice,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito
Regnans per omne sǽculum.
Amen.
O strength and stay upholding all creation,
Who ever dost thyself unmoved abide,
Yet day by day the light in due gradation
From hour to hour through all its changes guide:
Grant to life’s day a calm unclouded ending,
An eve untouched by shadows of decay,
The brightness of a holy death-bed blending
With dawning glories of th’ eternal day.
Hear us, O Father, gracious and forgiving,
And thou, O Christ, the co-eternal Word,
Who, with the Holy Ghost, by all things living
Now and to endless ages art adored.
Amen.

Psalmus 43(2-9) [1]
43:2 Deus áuribus nostris audívimus: * patres nostri annuntiavérunt nobis.
43:2 Opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum, * et in diébus antíquis.
43:3 Manus tua gentes dispérdidit, et plantásti eos: * afflixísti pópulos, et expulísti eos.
43:4 Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et brácchium eórum non salvávit eos:
43:4 Sed déxtera tua, et brácchium tuum, et illuminátio vultus tui: * quóniam complacuísti in eis.
43:5 Tu es ipse Rex meus et Deus meus: * qui mandas salútes Jacob.
43:6 In te inimícos nostros ventilábimus cornu: * et in nómine tuo spernémus insurgéntes in nobis.
43:7 Non enim in arcu meo sperábo: * et gládius meus non salvábit me.
43:8 Salvásti enim nos de affligéntibus nos: * et odiéntes nos confudísti.
43:9 In Deo laudábimur tota die: * et in nómine tuo confitébimur in sǽculum.

43:10 Nunc autem repulísti et confudísti nos: * et non egrediéris, Deus, in virtútibus nostris.
43:11 Avertísti nos retrórsum post inimícos nostros: * et qui odérunt nos, diripiébant sibi.
43:12 Dedísti nos tamquam oves escárum: * et in géntibus dispersísti nos.
43:13 Vendidísti pópulum tuum sine prétio: * et non fuit multitúdo in commutatiónibus eórum.
43:14 Posuísti nos oppróbrium vicínis nostris, * subsannatiónem et derísum his, qui sunt in circúitu nostro.
43:15 Posuísti nos in similitúdinem géntibus: * commotiónem cápitis in pópulis.
43:16 Tota die verecúndia mea contra me est, * et confúsio faciéi meæ coopéruit me.
43:17 A voce exprobrántis, et obloquéntis: * a fácie inimíci, et persequéntis.
43:18 Hæc ómnia venérunt super nos, nec oblíti sumus te: * et iníque non égimus in testaménto tuo.
43:19 Et non recéssit retro cor nostrum: * et declinásti sémitas nostras a via tua:
43:20 Quóniam humiliásti nos in loco afflictiónis, * et coopéruit nos umbra mortis.
℣ Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
℟ Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Psalmus 43(21-26) [3]
43:21 Si oblíti sumus nomen Dei nostri, * et si expándimus manus nostras ad deum aliénum:

43:22 Quóniam propter te mortificámur tota die: * æstimáti sumus sicut oves occisiónis.
43:23 Exsúrge, quare obdórmis, Dómine? * exsúrge, et ne repéllas in finem.
43:24 Quare fáciem tuam avértis, * oblivísceris inópiæ nostræ, et tribulatiónis nostræ?
43:25 Quóniam humiliáta est in púlvere ánima nostra: * conglutinátus est in terra venter noster.

Ant. You have saved us, * O Lord, and we will praise your name for ever.
Psalm 43(2-9) [1]
43:2 We have heard, O God, with our own ears. * Our fathers have announced to us
43:2 the work that you wrought in their days * and in the days of antiquity.
43:3 Your hand dispersed the Gentiles, and you transplanted them. * You afflicted a people, and you expelled them.
43:4 For they did not take possession of the land by their sword, * and their own arm did not save them.
43:4 But your right hand and your arm, and the light of your countenance did so, * because you were pleased with them.
43:5 You yourself are my king and my God, * who commands the salvation of Jacob.
43:6 With you, we will brandish a horn before our enemies; * and in your name, we will spurn those rising up against us.
43:7 For I will not hope in my bow, * and my sword will not save me.
43:8 For you have saved us from those who afflict us, * and you have bewildered those who hate us.
43:9 In God, we will give praise all day long; * and in your name, we will confess forever.
℣ Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
℟ As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without end. Amen.
Psalm 43(10-20) [2]
43:10 But now, you have rejected and bewildered us, * and you will not go forth with our armies, O God.
43:11 You have turned our back to our enemies, * and those who hated us have plundered for themselves.
43:12 You have given us over like sheep for food. * You have scattered us among the Gentiles.
43:13 You have sold your people without a price, * and no great number was exchanged for them.
43:14 You have set us as a disgrace to our neighbors, * a scoff and a derision to those who are around us.
43:15 You have set us as a parable among the Gentiles, * a shaking of the head among the peoples.
43:16 All day long my shame is before me, * and the confusion of my face has covered me,
43:17 before the voice of the reproacher and the commentator, * before the face of the adversary and the pursuer.
43:18 All these things have come upon us, yet we have not forgotten you, * and we have not acted unjustly in your covenant.
43:19 And our heart has not turned back. * And you have not diverted our steps from your way.
43:20 For you humbled us in a place of affliction, * and the shadow of death has covered us.
℣ Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
℟ As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without end. Amen.
Psalm 43(21-26) [3]
43:21 If we have forgotten the name of our God, * and if we have extended our hands to a foreign god,
43:22 will not God find this out? * For he knows the secrets of the heart.
43:22 For, because of you, we are being killed all day long. * We are considered as sheep for the slaughter.
43:23 Rise up. Why do you fall asleep, O Lord? * Rise up, and do not reject us in the end.
43:24 Why do you turn your face away, * and why do you forget our needfulness and our tribulation?
43:25 For our soul has been humbled into the dust. * Our belly has been bound to the earth.
43:26 Rise up, O Lord. Help us * and redeem us, because of your name.
℣ Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
℟ As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without end. Amen.
