Psalm 122

122:1 Ad te levávi óculos meos, * qui hábitas in cælis.
122:2a Ecce, sicut óculi servórum * in mánibus dominórum suórum,
122:2b Sicut óculi ancíllæ in mánibus dóminæ suæ: * ita óculi nostri ad Dóminum, Deum nostrum, donec misereátur nostri.
122:3 Miserére nostri, Dómine, miserére nostri: * quia multum repléti sumus despectióne:

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.
123:6 Benedíctus Dóminus * qui non dedit nos in captiónem déntibus eórum.

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.
124:3 Quia non relínquet Dóminus virgam peccatórum super sortem iustórum: * ut non exténdant iusti ad iniquitátem manus suas.

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.

125:3 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.
125:5 Those who sow in tears * shall reap with exultation.

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.

126:1b 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

Iac 1:12

Beátus vir, qui suffert tentatiónem: quóniam cum probátus fúerit, accípiet corónam vitæ, quam repromísit Deus diligéntibus se.

Blessed is the man who suffers temptation. For when he has been proven, he shall receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.

℟ Deo grátias.

℟ Thanks be to God.

Deus tuórum mílitum
Sors, et córona, prǽmium,
Laudes canéntes Mártyris
Absólve nexu críminis.

Hic nempe mundi gáudia,
Et blanda fraudum pábula
Imbúta felle députans,
Pervénit ad cæléstia.

Pœnas cucúrrit fórtiter,
Et sústulit viríliter,
Fundénsque pro te sánguinem,
Ætérna dona póssidet.

Ob hoc precátu súpplici
Te póscimus, piíssime;
In hoc triúmpho Mártyris
Dimítte noxam sérvulis.

Laus et perénnis glória
Patri sit, atque Fílio,
Sancto simul Paráclito,
In sempitérna sǽcula.
Amen.

O God, of those that fought thy fight,
Portion, and prize, and crown of light,
Break every bond of sin and shame
As now we praise thy martyr's name.

He recked not of the world's allure,
But sin and pomp of sin forswore:
Knew all their gall, and passed them by,
And reached the throne prepared on high.

Bravely the course of pain he ran,
And bare his torments as a man:
For love of thee his blood outpoured,
And thus obtained the great reward.

With humble voice and suppliant word
We pray thee therefore, holy Lord,
While we thy martyr's feast-day keep,
Forgive thy loved and erring sheep.

Glory and praise for aye be done
To God the Father, and the Son,
And Holy Ghost, who reign on high,
One God, to all eternity.
Amen.
