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.

88:10 Tu domináris potestáti maris: * motum autem flúctuum eius tu mítigas.

Ant. Mercy and truth * shall go before your face, O Lord.

Psalm 88(2-19)

88:2 I will sing the mercies of the Lord * in eternity.
88:2 I will announce your truth with my mouth, * from generation to generation.
88:3 For you have said: Mercy will be built in the heavens, unto eternity. * Your truth will be prepared there.
88:4 I have set up a covenant with my elect. I have sworn to David my servant: * I will prepare your offspring, even in eternity.
88:5 And I will build up your throne, * from generation to generation.
88:6 The heavens will confess your miracles, Lord, * and also your truth, in the Church of the saints.
88:7 For who among the clouds is equal to the Lord? * Who among the sons of God is like God?
88:8 God is glorified by the counsel of the saints. * He is great and terrible above all those who are around him.
88:9 O Lord, God of hosts, who is like you? * You are powerful, Lord, and your truth is all around you.

88:13 Tabor and Hermon will exult in your name. * Your arm acts with power.
88:14 Let your hand be strengthened, and let your right hand be exalted. * Justice and judgment are the preparation of your throne.

88:16 They will walk in the light of your countenance, O Lord, and they will exult in your name all day long, * and they will be exalted in your justice.
88:18 For you are the glory of their virtue, * and in your goodness, our horn will be exalted.
88:19 For our assumption is of the Lord, * and it is of our king, the holy one of Israel.

℣ 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.

Psalmus 88(20-38)

88:20 Tunc locútus es in visióne sanctis tuis, et dixísti: * Pósui adiutórium in poténte: et exaltávi eléctum de plebe mea.
88:21 Invéni David, servum meum: * óleo sancto meo unxi eum.
88:22 Manus enim mea auxiliábitur ei: * et brácchium meum confortábit eum.
88:23 Nihil profíciet inimícus in eo, * et fílius iniquitátis non appónet nocére ei.
88:24 Et concídam a fácie ipsíus inimícos eius: * et odiéntes eum in fugam convértam.
88:25 Et véritas mea, et misericórdia mea cum ipso: * et in nómine meo exaltábitur cornu eius.
88:26 Et ponam in mari manum eius: * et in flumínibus déxteram eius.
88:27 Ipse invocábit me: Pater meus es tu: * Deus meus, et suscéptor salútis meæ.
88:28 Et ego primogénitum ponam illum * excélsum præ régibus terræ.
88:29 In ætérnum servábo illi misericórdiam meam: * et testaméntum meum fidéle ipsi.
88:30 Et ponam in sǽculum sǽculi semen eius: * et thronum eius sicut dies cæli.
88:31 Si autem derelíquerint fílii eius legem meam: * et in iudíciis meis non ambuláverint:
88:32 Si iustítias meas profanáverint: * et mandáta mea non custodíerint:
88:33 Visitábo in virga iniquitátes eórum: * et in verbéribus peccáta eórum.
88:34 Misericórdiam autem meam non dispérgam ab eo: * neque nocébo in veritáte mea:
88:35 Neque profanábo testaméntum meum: * et quæ procédunt de lábiis meis, non fáciam írrita.
88:36 Semel iurávi in sancto meo: Si David méntiar: * semen eius in ætérnum manébit.
88:37 Et thronus eius sicut sol in conspéctu meo, * et sicut luna perfécta in ætérnum: et testis in cælo fidélis.

℣ Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

℟ Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Psalm 88(20-38)

88:20 Then you spoke in a vision to your holy ones, and you said: * I have stationed help with the powerful one, and I have exalted the elect one from my people.
88:21 I have found my servant David. * I have anointed him with my holy oil.
88:22 For my hand will assist him, * and my arm will fortify him.
88:23 The enemy will have no advantage over him, * nor will the son of iniquity be positioned to harm him.
88:24 And I will cut down his enemies before his face. * And those who hate him, I will turn to flight.
88:25 And my truth and my mercy will be with him. * And his horn will be exalted in my name.
88:26 And I will place his hand on the sea * and his right hand on the rivers.
88:27 He will invoke me: “You are my father, * my God, and the support of my salvation.”
88:28 And I will make him the first-born, * preeminent before the kings of the earth.
88:29 I will preserve my mercy for him eternally, * and my covenant for him faithfully.
88:30 And I will set his offspring from generation to generation, * and his throne like the days of heaven.
88:31 But if his sons abandon my law, * and if they do not walk in my judgments,
88:32 if they profane my justices, * and if they do not keep my commandments:
88:33 I will visit their iniquities with a rod, * and their sins with a beating.
88:34 But I will not scatter my mercy from him, * and I will not do harm to my truth.
88:35 And I will not profane my covenant, * and I will not make void that which proceeds from my lips.
88:36 I have sworn by my holiness one time: I will not lie to David, * his offspring will remain for eternity.
88:37 And his throne will be like the sun in my sight, * and, like the moon, it is perfected in eternity, and it is a faithful witness in heaven.

℣ 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.

Psalmus 88(39-53)

88:39 Tu vero repulísti et despexísti: * distulísti Christum tuum.
88:40 Evertísti testaméntum servi tui: * profanásti in terra Sanctuárium eius.
88:41 Destruxísti omnes sepes eius: * posuísti firmaméntum eius formídinem.
88:42 Diripuérunt eum omnes transeúntes viam: * factus est oppróbrium vicínis suis.
88:43 Exaltásti déxteram depriméntium eum: * lætificásti omnes inimícos eius.
88:44 Avertísti adiutórium gládii eius: * et non es auxiliátus ei in bello.
88:45 Destruxísti eum ab emundatióne: * et sedem eius in terram collisísti.
88:46 Minorásti dies témporis eius: * perfudísti eum confusióne.
88:47 Úsquequo, Dómine, avértis in finem: * exardéscet sicut ignis ira tua?
88:48 Memoráre quæ mea substántia: * numquid enim vane constituísti omnes fílios hóminum?
88:49 Quis est homo, qui vivet, et non vidébit mortem: * éruet ánimam suam de manu ínferi?
88:50 Ubi sunt misericórdiæ tuæ antíquæ, Dómine, * sicut iurásti David in veritáte tua?
88:51 Memor esto, Dómine, oppróbrii servórum tuórum * quod contínui in sinu meo multárum géntium.
88:52 Quod exprobravérunt inimíci tui, Dómine, * quod exprobravérunt commutatiónem Christi tui.
88:53 Benedíctus Dóminus in ætérnum: * fiat, fiat.

℣ Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

℟ Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Ant. Misericórdia et véritas præcédent fáciem tuam, Dómine.

Psalm 88(39-53)

88:39 Yet, truly, you have rejected and despised, * you have pushed away, my Christ.
88:40 You have overthrown the covenant of your servant. * You have profaned his sanctuary on earth.
88:41 You have destroyed all his fences. * You have made his territory dreadful.
88:42 All who pass by the way have plundered him. * He has become a disgrace to his neighbors.
88:43 You have exalted the right hand of those who oppress him. * You have brought joy to all his enemies.
88:44 You have diverted the help of his sword, * and you have not assisted him in battle.
88:45 You have torn him away from cleansing, * and you have smashed his throne down to the ground.
88:46 You have reduced the days of his time. * You have flooded him with confusion.
88:47 How long, O Lord? Will you turn away unto the end? * Will your wrath flare up like a fire?
88:48 Remember what my substance is. * For could you really have appointed all the sons of men in vain?
88:49 Who is the man that will live, and yet not see death? * Who will rescue his own soul from the hand of the underworld?
88:50 O Lord, where are your mercies of antiquity, * just as you swore to David in your truth?
88:51 Be mindful, O Lord, of the disgrace of your servants * (which I have sustained in my sinews) among many nations.
88:52 With these, your enemies have reproached you, O Lord; * with these, they have reproached the commutation of your Christ.
88:53 Blessed is the Lord for all eternity. * Amen. Amen.

℣ 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.

Ant. Mercy and truth shall go before your face, O Lord.
