Hymnus

Iam lucis orto sídere,
Deum precémur súpplices,
Ut in diúrnis áctibus
Nos servet a nocéntibus.

Linguam refrénans témperet,
Ne litis horror ínsonet:
Visum fovéndo cóntegat,
Ne vanitátes háuriat.

Sint pura cordis íntima,
Absístat et vecórdia;
Carnis terat supérbiam
Potus cibíque párcitas.

Ut, cum dies abscésserit,
Noctémque sors redúxerit,
Mundi per abstinéntiam
Ipsi canámus glóriam.

Deo Patri sit glória,
Eiúsque soli Fílio,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito,
Nunc et per omne sǽculum.
Amen.

Now in the sun's new dawning ray,
Lowly of heart, our God we pray
That he from harm may keep us free
In all the deeds this day shall see.

May fear of him our tongues restrain,
Lest strife unguarded speech should stain:
His favouring care our guardian be,
Lest our eyes feed on vanity.

May every heart be pure from sin
And folly find no place therein:
Scant need of food, excess denied,
Wear down in us the body's pride.

That when the light of day is gone,
And night in course shall follow on.
We, free from cares the world affords,
May chant the praise that is our Lord's.

All laud to God the Father be,
All praise, Eternal Son, to thee:
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete.
Amen.

25:1 Iúdica me, Dómine, quóniam ego in innocéntia mea ingréssus sum: * et in Dómino sperans non infirmábor.
25:2 Proba me, Dómine, et tenta me: * ure renes meos et cor meum.

25:5 Odívi ecclésiam malignántium: * et cum ímpiis non sedébo.
25:6 Lavábo inter innocéntes manus meas: * et circúmdabo altáre tuum, Dómine:
25:7 Ut áudiam vocem laudis, * et enárrem univérsa mirabília tua.
25:8 Dómine, diléxi decórem domus tuæ, * et locum habitatiónis glóriæ tuæ.
25:9 Ne perdas cum ímpiis, Deus, ánimam meam, * et cum viris sánguinum vitam meam:
25:10 In quorum mánibus iniquitátes sunt: * déxtera eórum repléta est munéribus.
25:11 Ego autem in innocéntia mea ingréssus sum: * rédime me, et miserére mei.
25:12 Pes meus stetit in dirécto: * in ecclésiis benedícam te, Dómine.

25:1 Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in my innocence, * and trusting in the Lord I shall not falter.
25:2 Prove me, O Lord, and try me: * purify my reins and my heart.
25:3 For your mercy is before my eyes, * and I have been well pleased in your truth.

25:7 That I may hear the voice of praise, * and tell of all your wondrous works.
25:8 O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house, * and the place where your glory dwells.
25:9 Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked, * nor my life with men of blood:

25:11 But as for me, I have walked in my innocence: * redeem me, and have mercy on me.
25:12 My foot has stood in the right way: * in the assemblies I will bless you, O Lord.

Psalmus 51

Psalm 51

51:3 Quid gloriáris in malítia, * qui potens es in iniquitáte?
51:4 Tota die iniustítiam cogitávit lingua tua: * sicut novácula acúta fecísti dolum.
51:5 Dilexísti malítiam super benignitátem: * iniquitátem magis quam loqui æquitátem.
51:6 Dilexísti ómnia verba præcipitatiónis, * lingua dolósa.
51:7 Proptérea Deus déstruet te in finem, * evéllet te, et emigrábit te de tabernáculo tuo: et radícem tuam de terra vivéntium.
51:8 Vidébunt iusti, et timébunt, et super eum ridébunt, et dicent: * Ecce homo, qui non pósuit Deum adiutórem suum:
51:9 Sed sperávit in multitúdine divitiárum suárum: * et præváluit in vanitáte sua.
51:10 Ego autem, sicut olíva fructífera in domo Dei, * sperávi in misericórdia Dei in ætérnum: et in sǽculum sǽculi.
51:11 Confitébor tibi in sǽculum, quia fecísti: * et exspectábo nomen tuum, quóniam bonum est in conspéctu sanctórum tuórum.

51:3 Why do you glory in malice, * you who are mighty in iniquity?
51:4 All day long your tongue devised injustice: * like a sharp razor you have wrought deceit.
51:5 You have loved malice above kindness: * and iniquity more than speaking equity.
51:6 You have loved all words of ruin, * O deceitful tongue.
51:7 Therefore God will destroy you utterly, * he will pluck you out and remove you from your dwelling, and your root from the land of the living.
51:8 The just shall see, and shall fear, and shall laugh at him, and shall say: * Behold the man who did not take God for his helper:
51:9 But trusted in the abundance of his riches: * and grew strong in his vanity.
51:10 But I, as a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, * have hoped in the mercy of God forever: yea, for ever and ever.
51:11 I will praise you forever, because you have done it: * and I will wait on your name, for it is good in the sight of your holy ones.

℣ Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Psalmus 52

Psalm 52

52:1 Dixit insípiens in corde suo: * Non est Deus.
52:2 Corrúpti sunt, et abominábiles facti sunt in iniquitátibus: * non est qui fáciat bonum.
52:3 Deus de cælo prospéxit super fílios hóminum: * ut vídeat si est intéllegens, aut requírens Deum.
52:4 Omnes declinavérunt, simul inútiles facti sunt: * non est qui fáciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.
52:5 Nonne scient omnes qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?
52:6 Deum non invocavérunt: * illic trepidavérunt timóre, ubi non erat timor.
52:6 Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum qui homínibus placent: * confúsi sunt, quóniam Deus sprevit eos.
52:7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israël? * cum convérterit Deus captivitátem plebis suæ, exsultábit Iacob, et lætábitur Israël.

52:1 The fool has said in his heart: * There is no God.
52:2 They are corrupt, and have become abominable in their iniquities: * there is none who does good.
52:3 God has looked down from heaven upon the children of men: * to see if there be any who understand, or who seek God.
52:4 All have turned aside, they are become unprofitable together: * there is none who does good, not even one.
52:5 Shall not all who work iniquity know, * who devour my people as they eat bread?
52:6 They have not called upon God: * there they trembled with fear, where there was no fear.
52:6 For God has scattered the bones of those who please men: * they have been confounded, because God has despised them.
52:7 Who will give out of Zion the salvation of Israel? * When God shall turn away the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

℣ Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

The Twenty-Fourth of September

Commemoration of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mercy, Foundress of the Order of Redemption of Captives under her name, whose Apparition is celebrated on the Tenth of August.
At Brescia, the passing of Saint Anathalon, Bishop, who, as a disciple of the blessed Apostle Barnabas, succeeded him as Bishop of the Church of Milan.
In Pannonia, Saint Gerard, Bishop of the see of Morisena and Martyr, called the Apostle of the Hungarians, a Venetian nobleman; who, while traveling from the town of Csanád to Székesfehérvár, was attacked by unbelievers near the river Danube, overwhelmed with stones and finally pierced through with a lance, and thus was the first to glorify his homeland with a noble martyrdom.
At Autun, the birthday of the holy Martyrs Andochius, Priest, Thyrsus, Deacon, and Felix. These, sent from the East by the blessed Polycarp, Bishop of Smyrna, to preach the faith in Gaul, were there most harshly beaten with scourges, hung for a whole day with their hands turned behind them, and cast into the fire, yet were not burned; at last their necks were struck with clubs, and thus they were most gloriously crowned as Martyrs.
In Egypt, the passion of the holy Martyrs Paphnutius and his Companions. He, while living in solitude, hearing that many Christians were held in chains, moved by the divine Spirit, spontaneously presented himself to the governor and freely professed the Christian faith; by whom he was first bound with iron chains and tortured for a very long time on the rack, then sent with many others to Diocletian, by whose command he was nailed to a palm tree, while the rest were put to death by the sword.
At Chalcedon, the holy Forty-Nine Martyrs, who, after the martyrdom of Saint Euphemia, under the Emperor Diocletian, were condemned to the beasts, and, when by divine power they escaped unharmed from them, were at last struck by the sword and passed into heaven.
At Clermont, in Gaul, the passing of Saint Rusticus, Bishop and Confessor.
At Flaviac, in the territory of Beauvais, Saint Geremarus, Priest and Abbot.
At Septempeda, in Picenum, the passing of Saint Pacificus, Priest of the Order of Friars Minor and Confessor, a man of outstanding patience and renowned for his love of solitude, whom Pope Gregory XVI enrolled in the canon of the Saints.
