Psalm 89 [2]

89:1 O Lord, you have been our refuge * from generation to generation.

89:2 Before the mountains became, or the land was formed along with the world: * from ages past, even to all ages, you are God.

89:3 And, lest man be turned aside in humiliation, * you have said: Be converted, O sons of men.

89:4 For a thousand years before your eyes * are like the days of yesterday, which have passed by,

89:5 and they are like a watch of the night, * which was held for nothing: so their years shall be.

89:6 In the morning, he may pass away like grass; in the morning, he may flower and pass away. * In the evening, he will fall, and harden, and become dry.

89:7 For, at your wrath, we have withered away, * and we have been disturbed by your fury.

89:8 You have placed our iniquities in your sight, * our age in the illumination of your countenance.

89:9 For all our days have faded away, * and at your wrath, we have fainted.

89:9 Our years will be considered to be like a spider’s web. * The days of our years in them are seventy years.

89:10 But in the powerful, they are eighty years, * and more of these are with hardship and sorrow.

89:10 For mildness has overwhelmed us, * and we shall be corrected.

89:11 Who knows the power of your wrath? * And, before fear, can your wrath be numbered?

89:12 So make known your right hand, * along with men learned in heart, in wisdom.

89:13 Return, O Lord, how long? * And may you be persuaded on behalf of your servants.

89:14 We were filled in the morning with your mercy, * and we exulted and delighted all our days.

89:15 We have been rejoicing, because of the days in which you humbled us, * because of the years in which we saw evils.

89:16 Look down upon your servants and upon their works, * and direct their sons.

89:17 And may the splendor of the Lord our God be upon us. And so, direct the works of our hands over us; * direct even the work of our hands.

Ant. O Lord, * your mercy is in heaven.

Psalm 35 [3]

35:2 The unjust one has said within himself that he would commit offenses. * There is no fear of God before his eyes.

35:3 For he has acted deceitfully in his sight, * such that his iniquity will be found to be hatred.

35:4 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. * He is unwilling to understand, so that he may act well.

35:5 He has been considering iniquity on his bed. * He has set himself on every way that is not good; moreover, he has not hated evil.

35:6 Lord, your mercy is in heaven, * and your truth is even to the clouds.

35:7 Your justice is like the mountains of God. * Your judgments are a great abyss.

35:7 Men and beasts, you will save, O Lord. * How you have multiplied your mercy, O God!

35:8 And so the sons of men * will hope under the cover of your wings.

35:9 They will be inebriated with the fruitfulness of your house, * and you will give them to drink from the torrent of your enjoyment.

35:10 For with you is the fountain of life; * and within your light, we will see the light.

35:11 Extend your mercy before those who know you, * and your justice to these, who are upright in heart.

35:12 May arrogant feet not approach me, * and may the hand of the sinner not disturb me.

35:13 In that place, those who work iniquity have fallen. * They have been expelled; they were not able to stand.

℣ 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.

Canticle of Jeremiah [4]

Jeremiah 31:10-14

31:10 Listen to the word of the Lord, O Gentiles, * and announce it amid the islands that are far away,

31:11 and say: “Whoever has scattered Israel will gather him, * and he will guard him as a shepherd guards his flock.”

31:12 For the Lord has redeemed Jacob, * and he has freed him from the hand of one more powerful.

31:13 And they will arrive and give praise on Mount Zion. * And they will flow together, to the good things of the Lord,

31:14 over grain, and wine, and oil, * and the offspring of cattle and herds.

31:15 And their soul will be like an irrigated garden, * and they will no longer be hungry.

31:16 Then the virgin will rejoice with singing, * the young and the old together,

31:17 and I will turn their mourning into gladness, * and I will console them and gladden them after their sorrow.

31:18 And I will inebriate the soul of the priests with fatness, * and my people will be filled with my good things.

Psalm 146 [5]

146:1 Praise the Lord, because the psalm is good. * Delightful and beautiful praise shall be for our God.

146:2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem. * He will gather together the dispersed of Israel.

146:3 He heals the contrite of heart, * and he binds up their sorrows.

146:4 He numbers the multitude of the stars, * and he calls them all by their names.

146:5 Great is our Lord, and great is his virtue. * And of his wisdom, there is no number.

146:6 The Lord lifts up the meek, * but he brings down the sinner, even to the ground.

146:7 Sing before the Lord with confession. * Play psalms to our God on a stringed instrument.

146:8a He covers heaven with clouds, * and he prepares rain for the earth.

146:8b He produces grass on the mountains * and herbs for the service of men.

146:9 He gives their food to beasts of burden * and to young ravens that call upon him.

146:10 He will not have good will for the strength of the horse, * nor will he be well pleased with the legs of a man.

146:11 The Lord is well pleased with those who fear him * and with those who hope in his mercy.

℣ 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.
