Invitatory {Antiphon from the Psalter for the day of the week}
Ant. The Lord it is who made us * Come, let us adore Him.
Ant. The Lord it is who made us * Come, let us adore Him.
Come let us praise the Lord with joy: let us joyfully sing to God our saviour. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving; and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.
Ant. The Lord it is who made us * Come, let us adore Him.
For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. For the Lord will not cast off his people: for in his hand are all the ends of the earth, and the heights of the mountains are his.
Ant. Come, let us adore Him.
For the sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. (genuflect) Come let us adore and fall down: and weep before the Lord that made us: For he is the Lord our God: and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
Ant. The Lord it is who made us * Come, let us adore Him.
Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts: As in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness: where your fathers tempted me, they proved me, and saw my works.
Ant. Come, let us adore Him.
Forty years long was I offended with that generation, and I said: These always err in heart. And these men have not known my ways: so I swore in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.
Ant. The Lord it is who made us * Come, let us adore Him.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Now, from the slumbers of the night arising,
Chant we the holy psalmody of David,
Hymns to our Master, with a voice concordant,
Sweetly intoning.
So may our Monarch pitifully hear us,
That we may merit with his saints to enter

Whose is the glory, which through all creation
Ever resoundeth.

Psalm 2 [2]
2:1 Why have the Gentiles raged, * and the people devised vain things?

2:5 Then shall he speak to them in his anger, * and trouble them in his rage.
2:6 But I am appointed king by him over Sion his holy mountain, * preaching his commandment.
2:7 The Lord hath said to me: * Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.
2:8 Ask of me, and I will give thee the Gentiles for thy inheritance, * and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession.
2:9 Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron, * and shalt break them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
2:10 And now, O ye kings, understand: * receive instruction, you that judge the earth.
2:11 Serve ye the Lord with fear: * and rejoice unto him with trembling.

9:26 God is not before his eyes: * his ways are filthy at all times.

9:27 For he hath said in his heart: * I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.
9:28 His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: * under his tongue are labour and sorrow.
9:29 He sitteth in ambush with the rich, in private places, * that he may kill the innocent.

9:30 He lieth in ambush, that he may catch the poor man: * so catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.

Lesson from the second book of Samuel
2 Sam 1:1-4
1 Now it came to pass, after Saul was dead, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalecites, and abode two days in Siceleg.
2 And on the third day, there appeared a man who came out of Saul's camp, with his garments rent, and dust strewed on his head: and when he came to David, he fell upon his face, and adored.
3 And David said to him: From whence comest thou? And he said to him: I am fled out of the camp of Israel.
4 And David said unto him: What is the matter that is come to pass? tell me. He said: The people are fled from the battle, and many of the people are fallen and dead: moreover Saul and Jonathan his son are slain.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Prepare your hearts unto the Lord, and serve Him Only
* And He will deliver you out of the hand of your enemies.

5 Dixítque David ad adolescéntem qui nuntiábat ei: Unde scis quia mórtuus est Saul et Iónathas fílius eius?
6 Et ait adoléscens qui nuntiábat ei: Casu veni in montem Gélboë, et Saul incumbébat super hastam suam. Porro currus et équites appropinquábant ei,
7 Et convérsus post tergum suum vidénsque me vocávit; cui cum respondíssem: Adsum,
8 Dixit mihi: Quisnam es tu? Et aio ad eum: Amalecítes ego sum.
9 Et locútus est mihi: Sta super me et intérfice me, quóniam tenent me angústiæ, et adhuc tota ánima mea in me est.
10 Stansque super eum, occídi illum, sciébam enim quod vívere non póterat post ruínam; et tuli diadéma, quod erat in cápite eius et armíllam de brácchio illíus et áttuli ad te dóminum meum huc.

11 Apprehéndens autem David, vestiménta sua scidit, omnésque viri, qui erant cum eo,
12 Et planxérunt, et flevérunt, et ieiunavérunt usque ad vésperam super Saul, et super Iónathan fílium eius, et super pópulum Dómini et super domum Israël, eo quod corruíssent gládio.
13 Dixítque David ad iúvenem qui nuntiáverat ei: Unde es tu? Qui respóndit: Fílius hóminis ádvenæ Amalecítæ ego sum.
14 Et ait ad eum David: Quare non timuísti míttere manum tuam, ut occíderes christum Dómini?

2 Sam 1:5-10
5 And David said to the young man that told him: How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son, are dead?
6 And the young man that told him, said: I came by chance upon mount Gelboe, and Saul leaned upon his spear: and the chariots and horsemen drew nigh unto him,
7 And looking behind him, and seeing me, he called me. And I answered, Here am I.
8 And he said to me: Who art thou? And I said to him: I am an Amalecite.
9 And he said to me: Stand over me, and kill me: for anguish is come upon me, and as yet my whole life is in me.
10 So standing over him, I killed him: for I knew that he could not live after the fall: and I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm and have brought them hither to thee, my lord.
2 Sam 1:11-15
11 Then David took hold of his garments and rent them, and likewise all the men that were with him.
12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the Lord, and for the house of Israel, because they were fallen by the sword.
13 And David said to the young man that told him: Whence art thou? He answered: I am the son of a stranger of Amalee.
14 David said to him: Why didst thou not fear to put out thy hand to kill the Lord's anointed?
15 And David calling one of his servants, said: Go near and fall upon him. And he struck him so that he died.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum
Matt 5:20-24
In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Nisi abundáverit iustítia vestra plus quam scribárum et pharisæórum, non intrábitis in regnum cælórum. Et réliqua.
Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi
Liber 1 de Sermóne Dómini in monte, cap. 9
Iustítia pharisæórum est, ut non occídant: iustítia eórum, qui intratúri sunt in regnum cælórum, ut non irascántur sine causa. Mínimum est ergo, non occídere; et qui illud sólverit, mínimus vocábitur in regno cælórum. Qui autem illud impléverit, ut non occídat, non contínuo magnus erit, et idóneus regno cælórum; sed tamen ascéndit áliquem gradum: perficiétur autem, si nec irascátur sine causa; quod si perfécerit, multo remótior erit ab homicídio. Quaprópter qui docet ut non irascámur, non solvit legem ne occidámus, et in corde, dum non iráscimur, innocéntiam custodiámus.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
Matt 5:20-24
At that time, Jesus said unto His disciples: Unless your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the Scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. And so on.
Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo
Bk. I on the Lord's Sermon on the Mount, ch. 9
Thou shalt not kill, is of the righteousness of the Pharisees; Thou shalt not be angry with thy brother without a cause, is of the righteousness of them which shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. The least therefore is: “Thou shalt not kill, and whosoever shall break this commandment, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven.” v. 19. But whosoever shall do it, and not kill, he is not therefore great, and meet for the kingdom of heaven; albeit, he hath risen a step; but he will have gotten farther, if he be not angry with his brother without a cause, which, if he do, he will be the farther off from manslaughter. Wherefore, He Which teacheth us that we are not to be angry without a cause, destroyeth not the law, Thou shalt not kill, but rather fulfilleth and increaseth it, making us not only to be free of the sin of outward killing, but also clean of anger within.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
Te Deum
We praise thee, O God, * we acknowledge thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship thee, * the Father everlasting.
To thee all Angels cry aloud, * the Heavens, and all the Powers therein.
To thee Cherubim and Seraphim * continually do cry.
bow head Holy, Holy, Holy * Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full * of the Majesty of thy glory.
The glorious company of the Apostles * praise thee.
The goodly fellowship of the Prophets * praise thee.
The noble army of Martyrs * praise thee.
The holy Church throughout all the world * doth acknowledge thee;
The Father, * of an infinite Majesty.

Also the Holy Ghost, * the Comforter.
Thou art the King of Glory, * O Christ.
Thou art the everlasting * Son of the Father.
During the following verse all make a profound bow: When thou tookest upon thee to deliver man, * thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb.
When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, * thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers.
Thou sittest at the right hand of God, * in the glory of the Father.
We believe that thou shalt come * to be our Judge.
Kneel for the following verse
We therefore pray thee, help thy servants, * whom thou hast redeemed with thy precious Blood.
Make them to be numbered with thy Saints, * in glory everlasting.
O Lord, save thy people, * and bless thine heritage.
Govern them, * and lift them up for ever.
Day by day * we magnify thee;
During the following verse, by local custom, all make a profound bow. And we worship thy Name * ever, world without end.
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us * this day without sin.
