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.

Ant. Exaltáre, Dómine, * qui iúdicas terram: redde retributiónem supérbis.

Ant. Be exalted, O Lord, * you who judge the earth: render retribution to the proud.

Psalmus 93(1-11)

Psalm 93(1-11)

93:1 Deus ultiónum Dóminus: * Deus ultiónum líbere egit.
93:2 Exaltáre, qui iúdicas terram: * redde retributiónem supérbis.
93:3 Úsquequo peccatóres, Dómine, * úsquequo peccatóres gloriabúntur:
93:4 Effabúntur, et loquéntur iniquitátem: * loquéntur omnes, qui operántur iniustítiam?
93:5 Pópulum tuum, Dómine, humiliavérunt: * et hereditátem tuam vexavérunt.
93:6 Víduam, et ádvenam interfecérunt: * et pupíllos occidérunt.
93:7 Et dixérunt: Non vidébit Dóminus, * nec intélleget Deus Iacob.
93:8 Intellégite, insipiéntes in pópulo: * et stulti, aliquándo sápite.
93:9 Qui plantávit aurem, non áudiet? * aut qui finxit óculum, non consíderat?
93:10 Qui córripit gentes, non árguet: * qui docet hóminem sciéntiam?
93:11 Dóminus scit cogitatiónes hóminum, * quóniam vanæ sunt.

93:1 The Lord is the God of retribution: * the God of retribution acts in order to deliver.
93:2 Lift yourself up, for you judge the earth: * repay the arrogant with retribution.
93:3 How long will sinners, O Lord, * how long will sinners glory:
93:4 How long will they utter and speak iniquity: * how long will all who work injustice speak out?
93:5 They have humiliated your people, O Lord: * and they have harassed your inheritance.
93:6 They have executed the widow and the new arrival: * and they have slaughtered the orphan.
93:7 And they have said: The Lord will not see, * nor will the God of Jacob understand.
93:8 Understand, you senseless ones among the people: * and be wise at last, you foolish ones.
93:9 He who formed the ear, will he not hear? * And he who forged the eye, does he not look closely?
93:10 He who chastises nations, will he not rebuke: * he who teaches man knowledge?
93:11 The Lord knows the thoughts of men, * that these are in vain.

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

Psalmus 93(12-23)

Psalm 93(12-23)

93:12 Beátus homo, quem tu erudíeris, Dómine: * et de lege tua docúeris eum,
93:13 Ut mítiges ei a diébus malis: * donec fodiátur peccatóri fóvea.
93:14 Quia non repéllet Dóminus plebem suam: * et hereditátem suam non derelínquet.
93:15 Quoadúsque iustítia convertátur in iudícium: * et qui iuxta illam omnes qui recto sunt corde.
93:16 Quis consúrget mihi advérsus malignántes? * aut quis stabit mecum advérsus operántes iniquitátem?
93:17 Nisi quia Dóminus adiúvit me: * paulo minus habitásset in inférno ánima mea.
93:18 Si dicébam: Motus est pes meus: * misericórdia tua, Dómine, adiuvábat me.
93:19 Secúndum multitúdinem dolórum meórum in corde meo: * consolatiónes tuæ lætificavérunt ánimam meam.
93:20 Numquid adhǽret tibi sedes iniquitátis: * qui fingis labórem in præcépto?
93:21 Captábunt in ánimam iusti: * et sánguinem innocéntem condemnábunt.
93:22 Et factus est mihi Dóminus in refúgium: * et Deus meus in adiutórium spei meæ.
93:23 Et reddet illis iniquitátem ipsórum: et in malítia eórum dispérdet eos: * dispérdet illos Dóminus, Deus noster.

93:12 Blessed is the man whom you will instruct, O Lord: * and you will teach him from your law,
93:13 So may you soothe him from the evil days: * until a pit may be dug for sinners.
93:14 For the Lord will not drive away his people: * and he will not abandon his inheritance.
93:15 Even until the time when justice is converted into judgment: * and when those who are close to it are all those who are upright of heart.
93:16 Who will rise up with me against the malignant? * Or who will stand with me against the workers of iniquity?
93:17 Except that the Lord assisted me: * my soul almost would have dwelt in Hell.
93:18 If ever I said, My foot is slipping: * your mercy, O Lord, assisted me.
93:19 According to the multitude of my sorrows in my heart: * your consolations have given joy to my soul.
93:20 Does the seat of iniquity adhere to you: * you who contrive hardship within a commandment?
93:21 They will hunt down the soul of the just: * and they will condemn innocent blood.
93:22 And the Lord has been made into a refuge for me: * and my God into the assistance of my hope.
93:23 And he will repay them their iniquity, and he will destroy them in their malice: * the Lord our God will utterly destroy them.

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

107:12 Nonne tu, Deus, qui repulísti nos, * et non exíbis, Deus, in virtútibus nostris?
107:13 Da nobis auxílium de tribulatióne: * quia vana salus hóminis.
107:14 In Deo faciémus virtútem: * et ipse ad níhilum dedúcet inimícos nostros.

107:3 Rise up, my glory, rise up, psaltery and harp: * I will arise at dawn.
107:4 I will give thanks to you among the peoples, O Lord: * and I will chant psalms to you among the nations.
107:5 For your mercy is great, above the heavens: * and your truth even to the clouds:
107:6 Be exalted above the heavens, O God, and above all the earth your glory: * that your beloved may be freed.
107:7 Save with your right hand, and hear me: * God has spoken in his holiness:
107:8 I will exult, and I will divide Shechem, * and I will measure out the valley of Tabernacles.
107:9 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine: * and Ephraim is the support of my head.
107:10 Judah is my king: * Moab is the bowl of my hope.
107:10 Over Idumea I will extend my sandal: * the foreigners have become my friends.
107:11 Who will lead me into the fortified city? * Who will lead me even into Idumea?
107:12 Will not you, O God, who had rejected us, * and will not you, O God, go forth with our armies?
107:13 Grant us help from tribulation: * for vain is the help of man.
107:14 In God we will act with strength: * and he himself will bring our enemies to nothing.
