Nocturn I.
Ant. Zelus domus tuæ * comédit me, et oppróbria exprobrántium tibi cecidérunt super me.
Psalmus 68 [1]
68:2 Salvum me fac, Deus: * quóniam intravérunt aquæ usque ad ánimam meam.
68:3 Infíxus sum in limo profúndi: * et non est substántia.
68:3 Veni in altitúdinem maris: * et tempéstas demérsit me.
68:4 Laborávi clamans, raucæ factæ sunt fauces meæ: * defecérunt óculi mei, dum spero in Deum meum.
68:5 Multiplicáti sunt super capíllos cápitis mei, * qui odérunt me gratis.
68:5 Confortáti sunt qui persecúti sunt me inimíci mei iniúste: * quæ non rápui, tunc exsolvébam.
68:6 Deus, tu scis insipiéntiam meam: * et delícta mea a te non sunt abscóndita.
68:7 Non erubéscant in me qui exspéctant te, Dómine, * Dómine virtútum.
68:7 Non confundántur super me * qui quǽrunt te, Deus Israël.
68:8 Quóniam propter te sustínui oppróbrium: * opéruit confúsio fáciem meam.
68:9 Extráneus factus sum frátribus meis, * et peregrínus fíliis matris meæ.
68:10 Quóniam zelus domus tuæ comédit me: * et oppróbria exprobrántium tibi cecidérunt super me.
68:11 Et opérui in ieiúnio ánimam meam: * et factum est in oppróbrium mihi.
68:12 Et pósui vestiméntum meum cilícium: * et factus sum illis in parábolam.
68:13 Advérsum me loquebántur, qui sedébant in porta: * et in me psallébant qui bibébant vinum.
68:13 Ego vero oratiónem meam ad te, Dómine: * tempus benepláciti, Deus.
68:14 In multitúdine misericórdiæ tuæ exáudi me, * in veritáte salútis tuæ:
68:15 Éripe me de luto, ut non infígar: * líbera me ab iis, qui odérunt me, et de profúndis aquárum.
68:16 Non me demérgat tempéstas aquæ, neque absórbeat me profúndum: * neque úrgeat super me púteus os suum.
68:17 Exáudi me, Dómine, quóniam benígna est misericórdia tua: * secúndum multitúdinem miseratiónum tuárum réspice in me.
68:18 Et ne avértas fáciem tuam a púero tuo: * quóniam tríbulor, velóciter exáudi me.
68:19 Inténde ánimæ meæ, et líbera eam: * propter inimícos meos éripe me.
68:20 Tu scis impropérium meum, et confusiónem meam, * et reveréntiam meam.
68:21 In conspéctu tuo sunt omnes qui tríbulant me: * impropérium exspectávit cor meum, et misériam.
68:21 Et sustínui qui simul contristarétur, et non fuit: * et qui consolarétur, et non invéni.
68:22 Et dedérunt in escam meam fel: * et in siti mea potavérunt me acéto.
68:23 Fiat mensa eórum coram ipsis in láqueum, * et in retributiónes, et in scándalum.
68:24 Obscuréntur óculi eórum ne vídeant: * et dorsum eórum semper incúrva.
68:25 Effúnde super eos iram tuam: * et furor iræ tuæ comprehéndat eos.
68:26 Fiat habitátio eórum desérta: * et in tabernáculis eórum non sit qui inhábitet.
68:27 Quóniam quem tu percussísti, persecúti sunt: * et super dolórem vúlnerum meórum addidérunt.
68:28 Appóne iniquitátem super iniquitátem eórum: * et non intrent in iustítiam tuam.
68:29 Deleántur de libro vivéntium: * et cum iustis non scribántur.
68:30 Ego sum pauper et dolens: * salus tua, Deus, suscépit me.
68:31 Laudábo nomen Dei cum cántico: * et magnificábo eum in laude:
68:32 Et placébit Deo super vítulum novéllum: * córnua producéntem et úngulas.
68:33 Vídeant páuperes et læténtur: * quǽrite Deum, et vivet ánima vestra.
68:34 Quóniam exaudívit páuperes Dóminus: * et vinctos suos non despéxit.
68:35 Laudent illum cæli et terra, * mare et ómnia reptília in eis.
68:36 Quóniam Deus salvam fáciet Sion: * et ædificabúntur civitátes Iuda.
68:36 Et inhabitábunt ibi, * et hereditáte acquírent eam.
68:37 Et semen servórum eius possidébit eam: * et qui díligunt nomen eius, habitábunt in ea.

Psalms with lections {Antiphons and psalms from the Proper of the season}
Nocturn I.
Ant. The zeal of thine house * hath eaten me up, and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
Psalm 68 [1]
68:2 Save me, O God: * for the waters are come in even unto my soul.
68:3 I stick fast in the mire of the deep: * and there is no sure standing.
68:3 I am come into the depth of the sea: * and a tempest hath overwhelmed me.
68:4 I have laboured with crying; my jaws are become hoarse: * my eyes have failed, whilst I hope in my God.
68:5 They are multiplied above the hairs of my head, * who hate me without cause.
68:5 My enemies are grown strong who have wrongfully persecuted me: * then did I pay that which I took not away.
68:6 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; * and my offences are not hidden from thee.
68:7 Let not them be ashamed for me, who look for thee, O Lord, * the Lord of hosts.
68:7 Let them not be confounded on my account, * who seek thee, O God of Israel.
68:8 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; * shame hath covered my face.
68:9 I am become a stranger to my brethren, * and an alien to the sons of my mother.
68:10 For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up: * and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
68:11 And I covered my soul in fasting: * and it was made a reproach to me.
68:12 And I made haircloth my garment: * and I became a byword to them.
68:13 They that sat in the gate spoke against me: * and they that drank wine made me their song.
68:13 But as for me, my prayer is to thee, O Lord; * for the time of thy good pleasure, O God.
68:14 In the multitude of thy mercy hear me, * in the truth of thy salvation.
68:15 Draw me out of the mire, that I may not stick fast: * deliver me from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
68:16 Let not the tempest of water drown me, nor the deep swallow me up: * and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
68:17 Hear me, O Lord, for thy mercy is kind; * look upon me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
68:18 And turn not away thy face from thy servant: * for I am in trouble, hear me speedily.
68:19 Attend to my soul, and deliver it: * save me because of my enemies.
68:20 Thou knowest my reproach, and my confusion, * and my shame.
68:21 In thy sight are all they that afflict me; * my heart hath expected reproach and misery.
68:21 And I looked for one that would grieve together with me, * but there was none: and for one that would comfort me, and I found none.
68:22 And they gave me gall for my food, * and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
68:23 Let their table become as a snare before them, * and a recompense, and a stumblingblock.
68:24 Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; * and their back bend thou down always.
68:25 Pour out thy indignation upon them: * and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
68:26 Let their habitation be made desolate: * and let there be none to dwell in their tabernacles.
68:27 Because they have persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; * and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
68:28 Add thou iniquity upon their iniquity: * and let them not come into thy justice.
68:29 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living; * and with the just let them not be written.
68:30 I am poor and sorrowful: * thy salvation, O God, hath set me up.
68:31 I will praise the name of God with a canticle: * and I will magnify him with praise.
68:32 And it shall please God better than a young calf, * that bringeth forth horns and hoofs.
68:33 Let the poor see and rejoice: * seek ye God, and your soul shall live.
68:34 For the Lord hath heard the poor: * and hath not despised his prisoners.
68:35 Let the heavens and the earth praise him; * the sea, and every thing that creepeth therein.
68:36 For God will save Sion, * and the cities of Juda shall be built up.
68:36 And they shall dwell there, * and acquire it by inheritance.
68:37 And the seed of his servants shall possess it; * and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

Ant. Let them be turned backward * and put to confusion that desire my hurt.
Psalm 69 [2]
69:2 O God, come to my assistance; * O Lord, make haste to help me.
69:3 Let them be confounded and ashamed * that seek my soul:
69:4 Let them be turned backward, and blush for shame * that desire evils to me:
69:4 Let them be presently turned away blushing for shame * that say to me: ’T is well, ’t is well.
69:5 Let all that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee; * and let such as love thy salvation say always: The Lord be magnified.
69:6 But I am needy and poor; * O God, help me.
69:6 Thou art my helper and my deliverer: * O Lord, make no delay.

70:2 Inclína ad me aurem tuam, * et salva me.

70:3 Quóniam firmaméntum meum, * et refúgium meum es tu.
70:4 Deus meus, éripe me de manu peccatóris, * et de manu contra legem agéntis et iníqui:
70:5 Quóniam tu es patiéntia mea, Dómine: * Dómine, spes mea a iuventúte mea.
70:6 In te confirmátus sum ex útero: * de ventre matris meæ tu es protéctor meus.
70:7 In te cantátio mea semper: * tamquam prodígium factus sum multis: et tu adiútor fortis.
70:8 Repleátur os meum laude, ut cantem glóriam tuam: * tota die magnitúdinem tuam.
70:9 Ne proícias me in témpore senectútis: * cum defécerit virtus mea, ne derelínquas me.
70:10 Quia dixérunt inimíci mei mihi: * et qui custodiébant ánimam meam, consílium fecérunt in unum.
70:11 Dicéntes: Deus derelíquit eum, persequímini, et comprehéndite eum: * quia non est qui erípiat.
70:12 Deus, ne elongéris a me: * Deus meus, in auxílium meum réspice.
70:13 Confundántur, et defíciant detrahéntes ánimæ meæ: * operiántur confusióne, et pudóre qui quǽrunt mala mihi.
70:14 Ego autem semper sperábo: * et adíciam super omnem laudem tuam.
70:15 Os meum annuntiábit iustítiam tuam: * tota die salutáre tuum.
70:16 Quóniam non cognóvi litteratúram, introíbo in poténtias Dómini: * Dómine, memorábor iustítiæ tuæ solíus.
70:17 Deus, docuísti me a iuventúte mea: * et usque nunc pronuntiábo mirabília tua.
70:18 Et usque in senéctam et sénium: * Deus, ne derelínquas me,
70:18 Donec annúntiem brácchium tuum * generatióni omni, quæ ventúra est:
70:19 Poténtiam tuam, et iustítiam tuam, Deus, usque in altíssima, quæ fecísti magnália: * Deus, quis símilis tibi?
70:20 Quantas ostendísti mihi tribulatiónes multas et malas: et convérsus vivificásti me: * et de abýssis terræ íterum reduxísti me:
70:21 Multiplicásti magnificéntiam tuam: * et convérsus consolátus es me.
70:22 Nam et ego confitébor tibi in vasis psalmi veritátem tuam: * Deus, psallam tibi in cíthara, Sanctus Israël.
70:23 Exsultábunt lábia mea cum cantávero tibi: * et ánima mea, quam redemísti.

Ant. Deliver me, my God, * out of the hand of the wicked.
Psalm 70 [3]
70:1 In thee, O Lord, I have hoped, let me never be put to confusion: * deliver me in thy justice, and rescue me.
70:2 Incline thy ear unto me, * and save me.
70:3 Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a place of strength: * that thou mayst make me safe.
70:3 For thou art my firmament * and my refuge.
70:4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the sinner, * and out of the hand of the transgressor of the law and of the unjust.
70:5 For thou art my patience, O Lord: * my hope, O Lord, from my youth.
70:6 By thee have I been confirmed from the womb: * from my mother’s womb thou art my protector.
70:7 Of thee shall I continually sing: * I am become unto many as a wonder, but thou art a strong helper.
70:8 Let my mouth be filled with praise, that I may sing thy glory; * thy greatness all the day long.
70:9 Cast me not off in the time of old age: * when my strength shall fail, do not thou forsake me.
70:10 For my enemies have spoken against me; * and they that watched my soul have consulted together,
70:11 Saying: God hath forsaken him: pursue and take him, * for there is none to deliver him.
70:12 O God, be not thou far from me: * O my God, make haste to my help.
70:13 Let them be confounded and come to nothing that detract my soul; * let them be covered with confusion and shame that seek my hurt.
70:14 But I will always hope; * and will add to all thy praise.
70:15 My mouth shall shew forth thy justice; * thy salvation all the day long.
70:16 Because I have not known learning, I will enter into the powers of the Lord: * O Lord, I will be mindful of thy justice alone.
70:17 Thou hast taught me, O God, from my youth: * and till now I will declare thy wonderful works.
70:18 And unto old age and grey hairs: * O God, forsake me not,
70:18 Until I shew forth thy arm * to all the generation that is to come:
70:19 Thy power, and thy justice, O God, even to the highest great things thou hast done: * O God, who is like to thee?
70:20 How great troubles hast thou shewn me, many and grievous: and turning thou hast brought me to life, * and hast brought me back again from the depths of the earth:
70:21 Thou hast multiplied thy magnificence; * and turning to me thou hast comforted me.
70:22 For I will also confess to thee thy truth with the instruments of psaltery: * O God, I will sing to thee with the harp,
70:23 My lips shall greatly rejoice, when I shall sing to thee; * and my soul which thou hast redeemed.
70:24 Yea and my tongue shall meditate on thy justice all the day; * when they shall be confounded and put to shame that seek evils to me.

Incipit Lamentátio Ieremíæ Prophétæ
Lam 1:1-5
1 Aleph. Quómodo sedet sola cívitas plena pópulo: facta est quasi vídua dómina géntium: princeps provinciárum facta est sub tribúto.
2 Beth. Plorans plorávit in nocte, et lácrimæ eius in maxíllis eius: non est qui consolétur eam ex ómnibus caris eius: omnes amíci eius sprevérunt eam, et facti sunt ei inimíci.
3 Ghimel. Migrávit Iudas propter afflictiónem, et multitúdinem servitútis: habitávit inter gentes, nec invénit réquiem: omnes persecutóres eius apprehendérunt eam inter angústias.
4 Daleth. Viæ Sion lugent eo quod non sint qui véniant ad solemnitátem: omnes portæ eius destrúctæ: sacerdótes eius geméntes: vírgines eius squálidæ, et ipsa oppréssa amaritúdine.
5 He. Facti sunt hostes eius in cápite, inimíci eius locupletáti sunt: quia Dóminus locútus est super eam propter multitúdinem iniquitátum eius: párvuli eius ducti sunt in captivitátem, ante fáciem tribulántis.
Ierúsalem, Ierúsalem, convértere ad Dóminum Deum tuum.

℟. In monte Olivéti orávit ad Patrem: Pater, si fíeri potest, tránseat a me calix iste:
* Spíritus quidem promptus est, caro autem infírma.
℣. Vigiláte, et oráte, ut non intrétis in tentatiónem.
℟. Spíritus quidem promptus est, caro autem infírma.
Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.

Lesson from the book of Lamentations
Lam 1:1-5
1 Aleph. How doth the city sit solitary that was full of people! how is the mistress of the Gentiles become as a widow: the princes of provinces made tributary!
2 Beth. Weeping she hath wept in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks: there is none to comfort her among all them that were dear to her: all her friends have despised her, and are become her enemies.
3 Ghimel. Juda hath removed her dwelling place because of her affliction, and the greatness of her bondage: she hath dwelt among the nations, and she hath found no rest: all her persecutors have taken her in the midst of straits.
4 Daleth. The ways of Sion mourn, because there are none that come to the solemn feast: all her gates are broken down: her priests sigh: her virgins are in affliction, and she is oppressed with bitterness.
5 He. Her adversaries are become her lords, her enemies are enriched: because the Lord hath spoken against her for the multitude of her iniquities: her children are led into captivity: before the face of the oppressor.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, return to the Lord thy God.

℟. At the Mount of Olives He prayed unto the Father: O My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me!
* The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
℣. Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.
℟. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Lam 1:6-9
6 Vau. Et egréssus est a fília Sion omnis decor eius: facti sunt príncipes eius velut aríetes non inveniéntes páscua: et abiérunt absque fortitúdine ante fáciem subsequéntis.
7 Zain. Recordáta est Ierúsalem diérum afflictiónis suæ, et prævaricatiónis ómnium desiderabílium suórum, quæ habúerat a diébus antíquis, cum cáderet pópulus eius in manu hostíli, et non esset auxiliátor: vidérunt eam hostes, et derisérunt sábbata eius.
8 Heth. Peccátum peccávit Ierúsalem, proptérea instábilis facta est: omnes, qui glorificábant eam, sprevérunt illam, quia vidérunt ignomíniam eius: ipsa autem gemens convérsa est retrórsum.
9 Teth. Sordes eius in pédibus eius, nec recordáta est finis sui: depósita est veheménter, non habens consolatórem: vide, Dómine, afflictiónem meam, quóniam eréctus est inimícus.
Ierúsalem, Ierúsalem, convértere ad Dóminum Deum tuum.

℟. Tristis est ánima mea usque ad mortem: sustinéte hic, et vigiláte mecum: nunc vidébitis turbam, quæ circúmdabit me:
* Vos fugam capiétis, et ego vadam immolári pro vobis.
℣. Ecce appropínquat hora, et Fílius hóminis tradétur in manus peccatórum.
℟. Vos fugam capiétis, et ego vadam immolári pro vobis.


Reading 2
Lam 1:6-9
6 Vau. And from the daughter of Sion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like rams that find no pastures: and they are gone away without strength before the face of the pursuer.
7 Zain. Jerusalem hath remembered the days of her affliction, and prevarication of all her desirable things which she had from the days of old, when her people fell in the enemy's hand, and there was no helper: the enemies have seen her, and have mocked at her sabbaths.
8 Heth. Jerusalem hath grievously sinned, therefore is she become unstable: all that honoured her have despised her, because they have seen her shame: but she sighed and turned backward.
9 Teth. Her filthiness is on her feet, and she hath not remembered her end: she is wonderfully cast down, not having a comforter: behold, O Lord, my affliction, because the enemy is lifted up.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, return to the Lord thy God.

℟. My Soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here and watch with Me * Yet a little while, and ye shall see the multitude close Me in. Ye shall flee; and I will go to be offered a sacrifice for you.
℣. Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
℟. Ye shall flee; and I will go to be offered a sacrifice for you.

10 Iod. Manum suam misit hostis ad ómnia desiderabília eius: quia vidit gentes ingréssas sanctuárium suum, de quibus præcéperas ne intrárent in ecclésiam tuam.
11 Caph. Omnis pópulus eius gemens, et quærens panem: dedérunt pretiósa quæque pro cibo ad refocillándam ánimam. Vide, Dómine, et consídera, quóniam facta sum vilis.
12 Lamed. O vos omnes, qui transítis per viam, atténdite, et vidéte, si est dolor sicut dolor meus: quóniam vindemiávit me, ut locútus est Dóminus in die iræ furóris sui.
13 Mem. De excélso misit ignem in óssibus meis, et erudívit me: expándit rete pédibus meis, convértit me retrórsum: pósuit me desolátam, tota die mæróre conféctam.
14 Nun. Vigilávit iugum iniquitátum meárum: in manu eius convolútæ sunt, et impósitæ collo meo: infirmáta est virtus mea: dedit me Dóminus in manu, de qua non pótero súrgere.
Ierúsalem, Ierúsalem, convértere ad Dóminum Deum tuum.

℟. Ecce vídimus eum non habéntem spéciem, neque decórem: aspéctus eius in eo non est: hic peccáta nostra portávit, et pro nobis dolet: ipse autem vulnerátus est propter iniquitátes nostras:
* Cuius livóre sanáti sumus.

Lam 1:10-14
10 Jod. The enemy hath put out his hand to all her desirable things: for she hath seen the Gentiles enter into her sanctuary, of whom thou gavest commandment that they should not enter into thy church.
11 Caph. All her people sigh, they seek bread: they have given all their precious things for food to relieve the soul: see, O Lord, and consider, for I am become vile.
12 Lamed. O all ye that pass by the way, attend, and see if there be any sorrow like to my sorrow: for he hath made a vintage of me, as the Lord spoke in the day of his fierce anger.
13 Mem. From above he hath sent fire into my bones, and hath chastised me: he hath spread a net for my feet, he hath turned me back: he hath made me desolate, wasted with sorrow all the day long.
14 Nun. The yoke of my iniquities hath watched: they are folded together in his hand, and put upon my neck: my strength is weakened: the Lord hath delivered me into a hand out of which I am not able to rise.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, return to the Lord thy God.

℟. Behold, when we shall see Him, He hath no form nor comeliness: there is no beauty in Him: this is He Which hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; but He was wounded for our transgressions
* And with His stripes we are healed.

Psalm 72 [5]
72:1 How good is God to Israel, * to them that are of a right heart!
72:2 But my feet were almost moved; * my steps had wellnigh slipped.
72:3 Because I had a zeal on occasion of the wicked, * seeing the prosperity of sinners.
72:4 For there is no regard to their death, * nor is there strength in their stripes.
72:5 They are not in the labour of men: * neither shall they be scourged like other men.
72:6 Therefore pride hath held them fast: * they are covered with their iniquity and their wickedness.
72:7 Their iniquity hath come forth, as it were from fatness: * they have passed into the affection of the heart.
72:8 They have thought and spoken wickedness: * they have spoken iniquity on high.
72:9 They have set their mouth against heaven: * and their tongue hath passed through the earth.
72:10 Therefore will my people return here * and full days shall be found in them.
72:11 And they said: How doth God know? * and is there knowledge in the most High?
72:12 Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.
72:13 And I said: Then have I in vain justified my heart, * and washed my hands among the innocent.
72:14 And I have been scourged all the day; * and my chastisement hath been in the mornings.
72:15 If I said: I will speak thus; * behold I should condemn the generation of thy children.
72:16 I studied that I might know this thing, * it is a labour in my sight:
72:17 Until I go into the sanctuary of God, * and understand concerning their last ends.
72:18 But indeed for deceits thou hast put it to them: * when they were lifted up, thou hast cast them down.
72:19 How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: * they have perished by reason of their iniquity.
72:20 As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.
72:21 For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.
72:23 I am become as a beast before thee: * and I am always with thee.
72:24 Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.
72:25 For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?
72:26 For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: * thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever.
72:27 For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

Orat multa pátiens, de malo liberári desíderans. Súperest ut videámus in quo malo sit: et cum dícere cœ́perit, agnoscámus ibi nos esse: ut communicáta tribulatióne, coniungámus oratiónem. Contristátus sum, inquit, in exercitatióne mea, et conturbátus sum. Ubi contristátus? ubi conturbátus? In exercitatióne mea, inquit.

Reading 4
From the Treatise of St. Augustine, Bishop (of Hippo) Upon the Psalms
On Psalm liv, 1
Give ear to my prayer, O God, and despise not my supplication: attend unto me and hear me. These are the words of a man travailing, anxious, and troubled. He prayeth in the midst of much suffering, longing to be rid of his affliction. Our part is to see what that his affliction was, and when he hath told us, to acknowledge that we also suffer therefrom; that so, partaking in his trouble, we may take part also in his exercise, and am troubled. Wherein mourned he? Wherein was he troubled? He saith: In my exercise. In the next words he giveth us to know that his affliction was the oppression of the wicked, because of the voice of the enemy, and because of the oppression of the wicked, and this suffering which came upon him at the hands of wicked men, he hath called his exercise. Think not that wicked men are in this world for nothing, or that God doth no good with them. Every wicked man liveth, either to repent, or to exercise the righteous.

℟. Mine own friend hath betrayed Me by the sign of a kiss: Whomsoever I shall kiss, That Same is He; hold Him fast. This was the traitorous sign which he gave, even he who murdered with a kiss.

Would to God that they which now exercise us were converted and exercised with us! Yet, while they are as they are, and exercise us, we will not hate them: for we know not of any one of them whether he will endure to the end in his sin. Yea, oftentimes, when thou deemest that thou hatest thine enemy, he whom thou hatest is thy brother, and thou knowest it not. The Holy Scriptures show us that the devil and his angels are already damned unto everlasting fire, and therefore of their repentance it behoveth us to despair; but of theirs only. These are they against whom we wrestle within; to the which wrestling the Apostle stirreth us up where he saith: We wrestle not against flesh and blood, (that is, not against men whom we see,) but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world. Eph. vi. 12. He saith not the rulers of this world, lest perchance thou shouldest deem that devils are the lords of heaven and earth; what he doth say is, rulers of the darkness of this world, of that world which they love who love the world, of that world wherein the ungodly and unrighteous do prosper, of that world, in fine, of which the Gospel saith: And the world knew Him not.

We have seen iniquity and strife in the city. v. 10. Behold, the glory of the Cross. That Cross which was the object of the insults of God's enemies, is established now above the brows of kings. The end hath shown the measure of its power: it hath conquered the world, not by the sword, but by its wood. The enemies of God thought the Cross a meet object of insult and ridicule, yea, they stood before it, wagging their heads and saying: If He be the Son of God, let Him come down from the Cross! Matth. xxvii. 39, 40. And He stretched forth His Hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people. Rom. x. 21. If he is just which liveth by faith, Rom. i. 17; Hab. ii. 4, he is unjust that hath not faith. Therefore where is written iniquity we may understand unbelief. The Lord therefore saith that He saw iniquity and strife in the city, and that He stretched forth His Hands unto that disobedient and gainsaying people, and, disobedient and gainsaying as they were, He was hungry for their salvation, and said: Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. Luke xxiii. 34.

Psalm 76 [9]
76:2 I cried to the Lord with my voice; * to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.
76:3 In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, * and I was not deceived.
76:4 My soul refused to be comforted: * I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.
76:5 My eyes prevented the watches: * I was troubled, and I spoke not.
76:6 I thought upon the days of old: * and I had in my mind the eternal years.
76:7 And I meditated in the night with my own heart: * and I was exercised and I swept my spirit.
76:8 Will God then cast off for ever? * or will he never be more favourable again?
76:9 Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, * from generation to generation?
76:10 Or will God forget to shew mercy? * or will he in his anger shut up his mercies?
76:11 And I said, Now have I begun: * this is the change of the right hand of the most High.
76:12 I remembered the works of the Lord: * for I will be mindful of thy wonders from the beginning.
76:13 And I will meditate on all thy works: * and will be employed in thy inventions.
76:14 Thy way, O God, is in the holy place: who is the great God like our God? * Thou art the God that dost wonders.

De Epístola prima beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Corínthios
1 Cor 11:17-22
17 Hoc autem præcípio: non laudans quod non in mélius, sed in detérius convenítis.
18 Primum quidem conveniéntibus vobis in Ecclésiam, áudio scissúras esse inter vos, et ex parte credo.
19 Nam opórtet et hǽreses esse, ut et qui probáti sunt, manifésti fiant in vobis.
20 Conveniéntibus ergo vobis in unum, iam non est Domínicam cenam manducáre.
21 Unusquísque enim suam cenam præsúmit ad manducándum. Et álius quidem ésurit, álius autem ébrius est.
22 Numquid domos non habétis ad manducándum et bibéndum? aut Ecclésiam Dei contémnitis, et confúnditis eos, qui non habent? Quid dicam vobis? Laudo vos? In hoc non laudo.

℟. Eram quasi agnus ínnocens: ductus sum ad immolándum, et nesciébam: consílium fecérunt inimíci mei advérsum me, dicéntes:
* Veníte, mittámus lignum in panem eius, et eradámus eum de terra vivéntium.
℣. Omnes inimíci mei advérsum me cogitábant mala mihi: verbum iníquum mandavérunt advérsum me, dicéntes.
℟. Veníte, mittámus lignum in panem eius, et eradámus eum de terra vivéntium.
Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.

From the first letter of blessed Apostle Paul to Corinthians
1 Cor 11:17-22
17 Now this I ordain: not praising you, that you come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18 For first of all I hear that when you come together in the church, there are schisms among you; and in part I believe it.
19 For there must be also heresies: that they also, who are approved, may be made manifest among you.
20 When you come therefore together into one place, it is not now to eat the Lord's supper.
21 For every one taketh before his own supper to eat. And one indeed is hungry and another is drunk.
22 What, have you not houses to eat and to drink in? Or despise ye the church of God; and put them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? Do I praise you? In this I praise you not.

℟. I was like a gentle lamb that is brought to the slaughter, and I knew not that mine enemies had devised devices against me, saying:
* Come, let us put (poison of a deadly) tree into his bread, and let us cut him off from the land of the living.
℣. All they that hate me devised my hurt against me: they plotted together to do me evil, saying:

23 Ego enim accépi a Dómino quod et trádidi vobis, quóniam Dóminus Iesus, in qua nocte tradebátur, accépit panem,
24 Et grátias agens fregit, et dixit: Accípite, et manducáte: hoc est corpus meum, quod pro vobis tradétur: hoc fácite in meam commemoratiónem.
25 Simíliter et cálicem, postquam cœnávit, dicens: Hic calix novum testaméntum est in meo sánguine: hoc fácite, quotiescúmque bibétis, in meam commemoratiónem.
26 Quotiescúmque enim manducábitis panem hunc, et cálicem bibétis, mortem Dómini annuntiábitis donec véniat.

℟. Una hora non potuístis vigiláre mecum, qui exhortabámini mori pro me?
* Vel Iudam non vidétis, quómodo non dormit, sed festínat trádere me Iudǽis.
℣. Quid dormítis? súrgite, et oráte, ne intrétis in tentatiónem.

1 Cor 11:23-26
23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread.
24 And giving thanks, broke, and said: Take ye, and eat: this is my body, which shall be delivered for you: this do for the commemoration of me.
25 In like manner also the chalice, after he had supped, saying: This chalice is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as often as you shall drink, for the commemoration of me.
26 For as often as you shall eat this bread, and drink the chalice, you shall show the death of the Lord, until he come.

℟. Could ye not watch with Me one hour, ye that called one on the other to die for Me?
* Or see ye not Judas, how that he sleepeth not, but maketh haste to betray Me to the Jews?
℣. Why sleep ye? Rise, and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.
℟. Or see ye not Judas, how that he sleepeth not, but maketh haste to betray Me to the Jews?

28 Probet autem seípsum homo: et sic de pane illo edat, et de cálice bibat.

1 Cor 11:27-34
27 Therefore whosoever shall eat this bread, or drink the chalice of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord.
28 But let a man prove himself: and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of the chalice.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord.
30 Therefore are there many infirm and weak among you, and many sleep.
31 But if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32 But whilst we are judged, we are chastised by the Lord, that we be not condemned with this world.
33 Wherefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
34 If any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that you come not together unto judgment. And the rest I will set in order, when I come.
