Commemoratio ad Laudes tantum: S. Thomæ de Aquino Confessoris et Ecclesiæ Doctoris
1. 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. 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. 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. 5. 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.
As I live, * saith the Lord, I have no pleasure in the death of the sinner, but rather that he be converted and live.
The Lord is the God to whom revenge belongeth: * the God of revenge hath acted freely.
Lift up thyself, thou that judgest the earth: * render a reward to the proud.
How long shall sinners, O Lord: * how long shall sinners glory?
Shall they utter, and speak iniquity: * shall all speak who work injustice?
Thy people, O Lord, they have brought low: * and they have afflicted thy inheritance.
They have slain the widow and the stranger: * and they have murdered the fatherless.
And they have said: The Lord shall not see: * neither shall the God of Jacob understand.
Understand, ye senseless among the people: * and, you fools, be wise at last.
He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? * or he that formed the eye, doth he not consider?
He that chastiseth nations, shall he not rebuke: * he that teacheth man knowledge?
The Lord knoweth the thoughts of men, * that they are vain.
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.
Blessed is the man whom thou shalt instruct, O Lord: * and shalt teach him out of thy law.
That thou mayst give him rest from the evil days: * till a pit be dug for the wicked.
For the Lord will not cast off his people: * neither will he forsake his own inheritance.
Until justice be turned into judgment: * and they that are near it are all the upright in heart.
Who shall rise up for me against the evildoers? * or who shall stand with me against the workers of iniquity?
Unless the Lord had been my helper, * my soul had almost dwelt in hell.
If I said: My foot is moved: * thy mercy, O Lord, assisted me.
According to the multitude of my sorrows in my heart, * thy comforts have given joy to my soul.
Doth the seat of iniquity stick to thee, * who framest labour in commandment?
They will hunt after the soul of the just, * and will condemn innocent blood.
But the Lord is my refuge: * and my God the help of my hope.
And he will render them their iniquity: and in their malice he will destroy them: * the Lord our God will destroy them.
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.
My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: * I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory.
Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp * I will arise in the morning early.
I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: * and I will sing unto thee among the nations.
For thy mercy is great above the heavens: * and thy truth even unto the clouds.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth: * that thy beloved may be delivered.
Save with thy right hand and hear me. * God hath spoken in his holiness.
I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem * and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles.
Galaad is mine: and Manasses is mine: * and Ephraim the protection of my head.
Juda is my king: * Moab the pot of my hope.
Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: * the aliens are become my friends.
Who will bring me into the strong city? * who will lead me into Edom?
Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? * and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?
O grant us help from trouble: * for vain is the help of man.
Through God we shall do mightily: * and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
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.
As I live, * saith the Lord, I have no pleasure in the death of the sinner, but rather that he be converted and live.
Regi sæculórum immortáli et invisíbili, † soli Deo honor et glória in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Now to the king of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Orémus.
Dómine Deus omnípotens, qui ad princípium huius diéi nos perveníre fecísti: † tua nos hódie salva virtúte; * ut in hac die ad nullum declinémus peccátum, sed semper ad tuam iustítiam faciéndam nostra procédant elóquia, dirigántur cogitatiónes et ópera.
Per Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum, Fílium tuum: † qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, * per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.
O Lord, our heavenly Father, Almighty and everlasting God, who has safely brought us to the beginning of this day: defend us by thy mighty power; and grant that this day we fall into no sin, but that all our doings may be ordered by thy governance, to do always what is righteous in thy sight.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
Granátæ, in Hispánia, sancti Ioánnis de Deo Confessóris, qui Ordinis Fratrum Hospitalitátis infirmórum fuit Institútor, ac misericórdia in páuperes et sui despéctu éxstitit insígnis; quem Leo Décimus tértius, Póntifex Máximus, cæléstem ómnium hospitálium et infirmórum Patrónum renuntiavit.
Nicomedíæ sancti Quinctílis, Epíscopi et Mártyris.Apud Antínoum, Ægýpti urbem, natális sanctórum Mártyrum Apollónii Diáconi, et Philémonis; qui, tenti et ad Iúdicem addúcti, et, cum sacrificáre idólis constánter renuíssent, ambo, perforátis calcáneis, per civitátem horribíliter tracti, ac novíssime, gládio cæsi, martýrium complevérunt.
Ibídem pássio sanctórum Ariáni Prǽsidis, Theótici et aliórum trium, quos Iudex submérsos in mare necávit, sed delphinórum obséquio córpora eórum ad littus deláta sunt.Carthágine sancti Póntii, qui fuit Diáconus beáti Cypriáni Epíscopi, et, usque ad diem mortis illíus sústinens cum ipso exsílium, vitæ et passiónis eius egrégium volúmen relíquit, atque, in suis passiónibus Dóminum semper gloríficans, corónam vitæ proméruit.
Toléti, in Hispánia, deposítio beáti Iuliáni, Epíscopi et Confessóris, sanctitáte et doctrína celebérrimi.« Pater Noster » dicitur secreto usque ad « Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem: »
Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificétur nomen tuum: advéniat regnum tuum: fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra. Panem nostrum cotidiánum da nobis hódie: et dimítte nobis débita nostra, sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris:
Orémus.
Dirígere et sanctificáre, régere et gubernáre dignáre, Dómine Deus, Rex cæli et terræ, hódie corda et córpora nostra, sensus, sermónes et actus nostros in lege tua, et in opéribus mandatórum tuórum: † ut hic et in ætérnum, te auxiliánte, salvi et líberi esse mereámur, Salvátor mundi: Qui vivis et regnas in sǽcula sæculórum.
O Lord, Almighty God, King of heaven and earth, Saviour of the world, bless, lead, rule and govern our hearts and bodies, our senses, words and deeds today, following thy law and commandments, that here and for eternity with thy help we shall be saved in freedom. Who livest and reignest, world without end.
Dies et actus nostros in sua pace dispónat Dóminus omnípotens.
Quǽrite Dóminum dum inveníri potest: invocáte eum, dum prope est.
