Psalm 131
131:1 Meménto, Dómine, David, * et omnis mansuetúdinis eius:
131:2 Sicut iurávit Dómino, * votum vovit Deo Iacob:
131:3 Si introíero in tabernáculum domus meæ, * si ascéndero in lectum strati mei:
131:4 Si dédero somnum óculis meis, * et pálpebris meis dormitatiónem:
131:5 Et réquiem tempóribus meis: donec invéniam locum Dómino, * tabernáculum Deo Iacob.
131:6 Ecce, audívimus eam in Éphrata: * invénimus eam in campis silvæ.
131:7 Introíbimus in tabernáculum eius: * adorábimus in loco, ubi stetérunt pedes eius.
131:8 Surge, Dómine, in réquiem tuam, * tu et arca sanctificatiónis tuæ.
131:9 Sacerdótes tui induántur iustítiam: * et sancti tui exsúltent.
131:10 Propter David, servum tuum, * non avértas fáciem Christi tui.
131:11 Iurávit Dóminus David veritátem, et non frustrábitur eam: * De fructu ventris tui ponam super sedem tuam.
131:12a Si custodíerint fílii tui testaméntum meum, * et testimónia mea hæc, quæ docébo eos:
131:12b Et fílii eórum usque in sǽculum, * sedébunt super sedem tuam.
131:13 Quóniam elégit Dóminus Sion: * elégit eam in habitatiónem sibi.
131:14 Hæc réquies mea in sǽculum sǽculi: * hic habitábo quóniam elégi eam.
131:15 Víduam eius benedícens benedícam: * páuperes eius saturábo pánibus.
131:16 Sacerdótes eius índuam salutári: * et sancti eius exsultatióne exsultábunt.
131:17 Illuc prodúcam cornu David, * parávi lucérnam Christo meo.
131:18 Inimícos eius índuam confusióne: * super ipsum autem efflorébit sanctificátio mea.
131:1 Remember, O Lord, David, * and all his meekness:
131:2 As he swore to the Lord, * he vowed a vow to the God of Jacob:
131:3 If I enter into the tabernacle of my house, * if I go up into the bed where I lie:
131:4 If I give sleep to my eyes, * and 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 Ephrata: * we found it in the fields of the wood.
131:7 We will go into his tabernacle: * we will adore in the place where his feet stood.
131:8 Arise, 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 holy ones rejoice.
131:10 For the sake of David your servant, * turn not away the face of your Anointed.
131:11 The Lord has sworn to David in truth, and he will not make it void: * Of the fruit of your womb I will set upon your throne.
131:12a If your children will keep my covenant, * and my testimonies which I shall teach them:
131:12b Their children also for evermore, * shall sit upon your throne.
131:13 For the Lord has chosen Zion: * he has chosen it for his dwelling.
131:14 This is my resting place for ever and ever: * here will I dwell, for I have chosen it.
131:15 Blessing I will bless her widow: * I will satisfy her poor with bread.
131:16 I will clothe her priests with salvation: * and her holy ones shall rejoice with exceeding great joy.
131:17 There will I bring forth a horn to David, * I have prepared a lamp for my Anointed.
131:18 His enemies I will clothe with confusion: * but upon him shall my sanctification flourish.

Capitulum Hymnus Versus
Act. 1:1-2
Act. 1:1-2
Primum quidem sermónem feci de ómnibus, o Theóphile, quæ cœpit Iesus fácere et docére usque in diem, qua præcípiens Apóstolis per Spíritum Sanctum, quos elégit, assúmptus est.
Certainly, O Theophilus, I composed the first discourse about everything that Jesus began to do and to teach, instructing the Apostles, whom he had chosen through the Holy Spirit, even until the day on which he was taken up.
℟ Deo grátias.
℟ Thanks be to God.
Salútis humánæ Sator,
Iesu, volúptas córdium
Orbis redémpti Cónditor,
Et casta lux amántium:
Qua victus es cleméntia,
Ut nostra ferres crímina?
Mortem subíres ínnocens,
A morte nos ut tólleres?
Perrúmpis inférnum chaos:
Vinctis caténas détrahis;
Victor triúmpho nóbili
Ad déxteram Patris sedes.
Te cogat indulgéntia,
Ut damna nostra sárcias,
Tuíque vultus cómpotes
Dites beáto lúmine.
Tu, dux ad astra, et sémita,
Sis meta nostris córdibus,
Sis lacrimárum gáudium,
Sis dulce vitæ prǽmium.
Amen.
Hail, thou who man's Redeemer art,
Jesu, the joy of every heart;
Great Maker of the world's wide frame,
And purest love's delight and flame:
What nameless mercy thee o'ercame,
To bear our load of sin and shame?
For guiltless, thou thy life didst give,
That sinful erring man might live.
The realms of woe are forced by thee,
Its captives from their chains set free;
And thou, amid thy ransomed train,
At God's right hand dost victor reign.
Let mercy sweet with thee prevail,
To cure the wounds we now bewail;
Oh, bless us with thy holy sight,
And fill us with eternal light.
Our guide, our way to heavenly rest,
Be thou the aim of every breast;
Be thou the soother of our tears,
Our sweet reward above the spheres.
Amen.
