Psalm 123
123:1 Nisi quia Dóminus erat in nobis, dicat nunc Israël: * (2a) nisi quia Dóminus erat in nobis,
123:2b Cum exsúrgerent hómines in nos, * (3a) forte vivos deglutíssent nos:
123:3b Cum irascerétur furor eórum in nos, * (4) fórsitan aqua absorbuísset nos.
123:5 Torréntem pertransívit ánima nostra: * fórsitan pertransísset ánima nostra aquam intolerábilem.

123:1 If the Lord had not been among us, let Israel now say: * (2a) if the Lord had not been among us,

123:3b When their fury raged against us, * (4) perhaps the water would have engulfed us.

124:2b Montes in circúitu eius: ‡ et Dóminus in circúitu pópuli sui, * ex hoc nunc et usque in sǽculum.

124:2b Mountains are round about it: ‡ and the Lord is round about his people, * from this time forth and even for evermore.
124:3 For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: * lest the just stretch forth their hands to iniquity.

125:1 When the Lord turned back the captivity of Zion: * we became like those who are comforted.
125:2a Then our mouth was filled with joy: * and our tongue with exultation.
125:2b Then they shall say among the nations: * The Lord has done great things for them.
125:3 The Lord has done great things for us: * we are become joyful.
125:4 Turn back, O Lord, our captivity, * as a torrent in the south.

Psalm 126
126:1a Nisi Dóminus ædificáverit domum, * in vanum laboravérunt qui ædíficant eam.
126:1b Nisi Dóminus custodíerit civitátem, * frustra vígilat qui custódit eam.

126:2b Cum déderit diléctis suis somnum: * (3) ecce heréditas Dómini fílii: merces, fructus ventris.

126:5 Beátus vir, qui implévit desidérium suum ex ipsis: * non confundétur cum loquétur inimícis suis in porta.
126:1a Unless the Lord builds the house, * those who build it have labored in vain.
126:1b Unless the Lord guards the city, * he who keeps it watches in vain.
126:2a It is vain for you to rise before the light: * rise after you have sat down, you who eat the bread of sorrow.
126:2b When he shall have given sleep to his beloved: * (3) behold, the inheritance of the Lord is children: a reward, the fruit of the womb.
126:4 Like arrows in the hand of the mighty: * so the children of those who have been shaken out.

Capitulum Hymnus Versus
Sap 3:1-3
Sap 3:1-3
Iustórum ánimæ in manu Dei sunt, et non tanget illos torméntum mortis. Visi sunt óculis insipiéntium mori: illi autem sunt in pace.
But the souls of the just are in the hand of God, and no torment of death will touch them. In the eyes of the foolish, they seemed to die, and their departure was considered an affliction, and their going away from us, a banishment. Yet they are in peace.
℟ Deo grátias.
℟ Thanks be to God.
Sanctórum méritis ínclita gáudia
Pangámus, sócii, géstaque fórtia:
Gliscens fert ánimus prómere cántibus
Victórum genus óptimum.
Hi sunt, quos fátue mundus abhórruit;
Hunc fructu vácuum, flóribus áridum
Contempsére tui nóminis ásseclæ
Iesu, Rex bone cǽlitum.
Hi pro te fúrias, atque minas truces
Calcárunt hóminum, sǽvaque vérbera:
His cessit lácerans fórtiter úngula,
Nec carpsit penetrália.
Cædúntur gládiis more bidéntium:
Non murmur résonat, non quærimónia;
Sed corde impávido mens bene cónscia
Consérvat patiéntiam.
Quæ vox, quæ póterit lingua retéxere,
Quæ tu Martýribus múnera prǽparas?
Rubri nam flúido sánguine fúlgidis
Cingunt témpora láureis.
Te, summa o Déitas, únaque póscimus;
Ut culpas ábigas, nóxia súbtrahas,
Des pacem fámulis; ut tibi glóriam,
Annórum in sériem, canant.
Amen.
Sing, O sons of the Church sounding the martyrs' praise!
God's true soldiers applaud, who, in their weary days,
Won bright trophies of good, glad be the voice ye raise,
While these heroes of Christ ye sing!
They, while yet in the world were by the world abhorred;
Felt how fading the joys, fleeting the wealth it stored;
Spurned all pleasure for thee, and at thy call, O Lord,
Came forth strong in thy name, as King.
Lord, how bravely they bore fury and pain for thee!
Scourge, rod, sword, and the rack strongly endured; but free
Sang out, bold in thy love, longing on high to be;
Earth's might never their souls could bend.
While they, shedding their blood, victims for Jesus fell,
No sound out of their lips came of their throes to tell;
Bowed low, patient and meek, loving the Lord so well,
Turned they still to the Christ, their friend.
What joys, bright with the blood shed for thy love they share,
Those brave martyrs of thine crowned with thy laurels rare;
Man's tongue never can tell, never can half declare,
How pure now is their bliss above!
Yet we, Father on high, God of eternal might,
Lift weak voices in prayer asking for peace and light;
Cleanse thou out of our hearts every stain and blight,
So our songs may be songs of love.
Amen.
℣ Exsultábunt Sancti in glória.
℣ The Saints shall exult in glory.
℟ Lætabúntur in cubílibus suis.
℟ They shall rejoice in their dwellings.
