Capitulum Hymnus Versus

Sir 31:8-9

Beátus vir, qui invéntus est sine mácula, et qui post aurum non ábiit, nec sperávit in pecúnia et thesáuris. Quis est hic, et laudábimus eum? fecit enim mirabília in vita sua.

Blessed is the rich man who is found to be without blemish. And blessed is he who has not gone after gold, nor placed his hope in money or treasures. Who is he? For we should praise him. For he has done wonderful things in his life.

℟ Deo grátias.

℟ Thanks be to God.

Iesu, coróna célsior,
Et véritas sublímior,
Qui confiténti sérvulo
Reddis perénne prǽmium:

Da supplicánti cœ́tui,
Huius rogátu, nóxii
Remissiónem críminis,
Rumpéndo nexum vínculi.

Anni revérso témpore,
Dies refúlsit lúmine,
Quo Sanctus hic de córpore
Migrávit inter sídera.

Hic vana terræ gáudia,
Et luculénta prǽdia,
Pollúta sorde députans,
Ovans tenet cæléstia.

Te, Christe, Rex piíssime,
Hic confiténdo iúgiter,
Calcávit artes dǽmonum,
Sævúmque avérni príncipem.

Virtúte clarus, et fide,
Confessióne sédulus,
Ieiúna membra déferens,
Dapes supérnas óbtinet.

Proínde te piíssime
Precámur omnes súpplices:
Nobis ut huius grátia
Pœnas remíttas débitas.

Patri perénnis glória,
Natóque Patris único,
Sanctóque sit Paráclito,
Per omne semper sǽculum.
Amen.

Jesu, eternal truth sublime,
Through endless years the same!
Thou crown of those who through all time
Confess thy holy name:

Thy suppliant people, through the prayer
Of thy blest saint, forgive;
For his dear sake, thy wrath forbear,
And bid our spirits live.

Again returns the sacred day,
With heavenly glory bright,
Which saw him go upon his way
Into the realms of light.

All objects of our vain desire,
All earthly joys and gains,
To him were but as filthy mire;
And now with thee he reigns.

Thee, Jesu, his all-gracious Lord,
Confessing to the last,
He trod beneath him Satan's fraud,
And stood forever fast.

In holy deeds of faith and love,
In fastings and in prayers,
His days were spent; and now above
Thy heavenly feast he shares.

Then, for his sake thy wrath lay by,
And hear us while we pray;
And pardon us, O thou most high,
On this his festal day.

All glory to the Father be;
And sole Incarnate Son;
Praise, holy Paraclete, to thee;
While endless ages run.
Amen.

1:71 Salvation from our enemies, * and from the hand of all those who hate us.
1:72 To accomplish mercy with our fathers: * and to call to mind his holy testament.
1:73 The oath, which he swore to Abraham our father, * that he would grant to us:
1:74 So that, having been freed from the hand of our enemies, * we may serve him without fear.
1:75 In holiness and in justice before him, * throughout all our days.
1:76 And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High: * for you will go before the face of the Lord, to prepare his ways,
1:77 To give knowledge of salvation to his people: * for the remission of their sins,
1:78 Through the heart of the mercy of our God: * by which, descending from on high, he has visited us,
1:79 To illuminate those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death: * and to direct our feet in the way of peace.
