Hymnus

Rerum, Deus, tenax vigor,
Immótus in te pérmanens,
Lucis diúrnæ témpora
Succéssibus detérminans:

Largíre lumen véspere,
Quo vita nusquam décidat,
Sed prǽmium mortis sacræ
Perénnis instet glória.

Præsta, Pater piíssime,
Patríque compar Únice,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito
Regnans per omne sǽculum.
Amen.

O strength and stay upholding all creation,
Who ever dost thyself unmoved abide,
Yet day by day the light in due gradation
From hour to hour through all its changes guide:

Grant to life’s day a calm unclouded ending,
An eve untouched by shadows of decay,
The brightness of a holy death-bed blending
With dawning glories of th’ eternal day.

Hear us, O Father, gracious and forgiving,
And thou, O Christ, the co-eternal Word,
Who, with the Holy Ghost, by all things living
Now and to endless ages art adored.
Amen.

Psalmus 74

Psalm 74

74:2 Confitébimur tibi, Deus: * confitébimur, et invocábimus nomen tuum.
74:3 Narrábimus mirabília tua: * cum accépero tempus, ego iustítias iudicábo.
74:4 Liquefácta est terra, et omnes qui hábitant in ea: * ego confirmávi colúmnas eius.
74:5 Dixi iníquis: Nolíte iníque ágere: * et delinquéntibus: Nolíte exaltáre cornu:
74:6 Nolíte extóllere in altum cornu vestrum: * nolíte loqui advérsus Deum iniquitátem.
74:7 Quia neque ab Oriénte, neque ab Occidénte, neque a desértis móntibus: * quóniam Deus iudex est.
74:8 Hunc humíliat, et hunc exáltat: * quia calix in manu Dómini vini meri plenus misto.
74:9 Et inclinávit ex hoc in hoc: verúmtamen fæx eius non est exinaníta: * bibent omnes peccatóres terræ.
74:10 Ego autem annuntiábo in sǽculum: * cantábo Deo Iacob.
74:11 Et ómnia córnua peccatórum confríngam: * et exaltabúntur córnua iusti.

74:2 We will confess to you, O God: * we will confess, and we will call upon your name.
74:3 We will declare your wonders: * when I have received the time, I will judge justices.
74:4 The earth has been dissolved, with all who dwell in it: * I have confirmed its pillars.
74:5 I said to the iniquitous: Do not act unjustly: * and to the offenders: Do not exalt the horn:
74:6 Do not exalt your horn on high: * do not speak iniquity against God.
74:7 For it is neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert mountains: * for God is judge.
74:8 This one he humbles, and that one he exalts: * for in the hand of the Lord there is a cup of undiluted wine, full of consternation.
74:9 And he poured from this one into that one: yet its dregs have not been emptied out: * all the sinners of the earth shall drink.
74:10 But I will announce it in every age: * I will sing to the God of Jacob.
74:11 And I will break all the horns of sinners: * and the horns of the just will be exalted.

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

Psalmus 75(2-7)

Psalm 75(2-7)

75:2 Notus in Iudǽa Deus: * in Israël magnum nomen eius.
75:3 Et factus est in pace locus eius: * et habitátio eius in Sion.
75:4 Ibi confrégit poténtias árcuum, * scutum, gládium, et bellum.
75:5 Illúminans tu mirabíliter a móntibus ætérnis: * turbáti sunt omnes insipiéntes corde.
75:6 Dormiérunt somnum suum: * et nihil invenérunt omnes viri divitiárum in mánibus suis.
75:7 Ab increpatióne tua, Deus Iacob, * dormitavérunt qui ascendérunt equos.

75:2 In Judea, God is known: * in Israel, his name is great.
75:3 And his place has been formed with peace: * and his dwelling place is in Zion.
75:4 In that place, he has broken the powers of the bows, * the shield, the sword, and the battle.
75:5 You illuminate wondrously from the mountains of eternity: * all the foolish of heart have been disturbed.
75:6 They have slept their sleep: * and all the men of riches have found nothing in their hands.
75:7 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, * those who were mounted on horseback have fallen asleep.

Psalmus 75(8-13)

Psalm 75(8-13)

75:8 Tu terríbilis es, et quis resístet tibi? * ex tunc ira tua.
75:9 De cælo audítum fecísti iudícium: * terra trémuit et quiévit,
75:10 Cum exsúrgeret in iudícium Deus, * ut salvos fáceret omnes mansuétos terræ.
75:11 Quóniam cogitátio hóminis confitébitur tibi: * et relíquiæ cogitatiónis diem festum agent tibi.
75:12 Vovéte, et réddite Dómino, Deo vestro: * omnes, qui in circúitu eius affértis múnera.
75:13 Terríbili et ei qui aufert spíritum príncipum, * terríbili apud reges terræ.

75:8 You are terrible, and so who can withstand you? * From thence is your wrath.
75:9 You have caused judgment to be heard from heaven: * the earth trembled and was quieted,
75:10 when God rose up in judgment, * in order to bring salvation to all the meek of the earth.
75:11 For the thinking of man will confess to you: * and the legacy of his thinking will keep a feast day to you.
75:12 Make vows and pay them to the Lord, your God: * all you who surround him, bring gifts to him who is terrible,
75:13 even to him who takes away the spirit of leaders, * to him who is terrible with the kings of the earth.
