Psalm 131
131:1 O Lord, remember David * and all his meekness,
131:2 how he swore to the Lord, * how he made a vow to the God of Jacob:
131:3 I shall not enter into the tabernacle of my house, * nor climb into the bed where I lie down;
131:4 I shall not give sleep to my eyes, * nor slumber to my eyelids
131:5 and rest to my temples, until I find a place for the Lord, * a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
131:6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. * We discovered it in the fields of the forest.
131:7 We will enter into his tabernacle. * We will adore in the place where his feet stood.
131:8 Rise up, O Lord, into your resting place. * You and the ark of your sanctification.
131:9 Let your priests be clothed with justice, * and let your saints exult.
131:10 For the sake of your servant David, * do not turn away the face of your Christ.
131:11 The Lord has sworn the truth to David, and he will not disappoint: * I will set upon your throne from the fruit of your lineage.
131:12a If your sons will keep my covenant * and these, my testimonies, which I will teach to them,
131:12b then their sons * will sit upon your throne even forever.
131:13 For the Lord has chosen Zion. * He has chosen it as his dwelling place.
131:14 This is my resting place, forever and ever. * Here I will dwell, for I have chosen it.
131:15 When blessing, I will bless her widow. * I will satisfy her poor with bread.
131:16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, * and her saints will rejoice with great joy.
131:17 There, I will produce a horn to David. * There, I have prepared a lamp for my Christ.

Capitulum Hymnus Versus
Sir 44:16-17
Ecce sacérdos magnus, qui in diébus suis plácuit Deo, et invéntus est iustus: et in témpore iracúndiæ factus est reconciliátio.
℟ Deo grátias.
Iste Conféssor Dómini, coléntes
Quem pie laudant pópuli per orbem,
Hac die lætus méruit beátas
Scándere sedes.
Qui pius, prudens, húmilis, pudícus,
Sóbriam duxit sine labe vitam,
Donec humános animávit auræ
Spíritus artus.
Cuius ob præstans méritum, frequénter,
Ægra quæ passim iacuére membra,
Víribus morbi dómitis, salúti
Restituúntur.
Noster hinc illi chorus obsequéntem
Cóncinit laudem celebrésque palmas,
Ut piis eius précibus iuvémur
Omne per ævum.
Sit salus illi, decus atque virtus,
Qui, super cæli sólio corúscans,
Tótius mundi sériem gubérnat,
Trinus et unus.
Amen.
℣ Iustum dedúxit Dóminus per vias rectas.
℟ Et osténdit illi regnum Dei.
Sir 44:16-17
Behold, the great priest, who in his days pleased God and was found just; and in the time of wrath he was made a reconciliation.
℟ Thanks be to God.
This the confessor of the Lord, whose triumph
Now all the faithful celebrate, with gladness
Erst on this feast-day merited to enter
Into his glory.
Saintly and prudent, modest in behaviour,
Peaceful and sober, chaste was he, and lowly.
While that life’s vigour, coursing through his members,
Quickened his being.
Sick ones on all sides, long in sickness lying,
Sorely by ailments manifold afflicted,
Oft-times have welcomed health and strength returning,
Through his great merit.
Whence we in chorus gladly do him honour,
Chanting his praises with devout affection,
That by his prayers we may receive assistance,
Now and forever.
His be the glory, power and salvation,
Who over all things reigneth in the highest,
Earth’s mighty fabric ruling and directing,
Onely and Trinal.
Amen.
℣ The Lord led the just man by straight paths.
℟ And showed him the Kingdom of God.
