Invitatorium

The Lord, the King of Confessors, * O come, let us worship.

Hymnus

1. This the confessor of the Lord, whose triumph Now all the faithful celebrate, with gladness On this feast day year by year receiveth Merited honors. 2. Saintly and prudent, modest in behaviour, Peaceful and sober, chaste was he, and lowly. While that life’s vigour, coursing through his members, Quickened his being. 3. Sick ones of old time, to his tomb resorting, Sorely by ailments manifold afflicted, Oft-times have welcomed health and strength returning, At his petition. 4. Whence we in chorus gladly do him honour, Chanting his praises with devout affection, That in his merits we may have a portion, Now and forever. 5. His be the glory, power and salvation, Who over all things reigneth in the highest, Earth’s mighty fabric ruling and directing, Onely and Trinal. Amen.

Psalmus 77 (17,31)

The Lord opened * the doors of heaven and had rained down manna upon them to eat.

Psalmus 77 (32,41)

God is their helper, * and the most high God their redeemer.

  2. And their days were consumed in vanity, * and their years in haste.

  3. Cum occíderet eos, quærébant eum: * et revertebántur, et dilúculo veniébant ad eum.

  5. Et rememoráti sunt quia Deus adjútor est eórum: * et Deus excélsus redémptor eórum est.
  6. And they remembered that God was their helper: * and the most high God their redeemer.

  7. Et dilexérunt eum in ore suo, * et lingua sua mentíti sunt ei.

  9. Cor autem eórum non erat rectum cum eo: * nec fidéles hábiti sunt in testaménto ejus.
  10. But their heart was not right with him: * nor were they counted faithful in his covenant.

  11. Ipse autem est miséricors, et propítius fiet peccátis eórum: * et non dispérdet eos.
  12. But he is merciful, and will forgive their sins: * and will not destroy them.

  13. Et abundávit ut avérteret iram suam: * et non accéndit omnem iram suam:
  14. And many a time did he turn away his anger: * and did not kindle all his wrath.

  15. Et recordátus est quia caro sunt: * spíritus vadens et non rédiens.
  16. And he remembered that they are flesh: * a wind that goeth and returneth not.

  17. Quóties exacerbavérunt eum in desérto, * in iram concitavérunt eum in inaquóso?
  18. How often did they provoke him in the desert: * and move him to wrath in the place without water?

  19. Et convérsi sunt, et tentavérunt Deum: * et Sanctum Israël exacerbarunt.
  20. And they turned back and tempted God: * and grieved the holy one of Israel.

God is their helper, * and the most high God their redeemer.

Psalmus 77 (42,58)

The Lord redeemed them * from the hand of him that afflicted them.

  14. And he sent upon them the wrath of his indignation: * indignation and wrath and trouble, which he sent by evil angels.

  15. Viam fecit sémitæ iræ suæ, non pepércit a morte anibus eórum: * et juménta eórum in morte conclúsit.
  16. He made a way for a path to his anger: * he spared not their souls from death, and their cattle he shut up in death.

  17. Et percússit omne primogénitum in terra Ægýpti: * primítias omnis labóris eórum in tabernáculis Cham.
  18. And he killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: * the firstfruits of all their labour in the tabernacles of Cham.

  28. And he made the tribes of Israel * to dwell in their tabernacles.

  29. Et tentavérunt, et exacerbavérunt Deum excélsum: * et testimónia ejus non custodiérunt.
  30. Yet they tempted, and provoked the most high God: * and they kept not his testimonies.

  31. Et avertérunt se, et non servarunt pactum: * quemádmodum patres eórum convérsi sunt in arcum pravum.
  32. And they turned away, and kept not the covenant: * even like their fathers they were turned aside as a crooked bow.

  18. Lest they should say among the Gentiles: Where is their God? * And let him be made known among the nations before our eyes,

Versus

Pater

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:


℣. Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem:
℟. Sed líbera nos a malo.

Absolutio. Ipsíus píetas et misericórdia nos ádiuvet, qui cum Patre et Spíritu Sancto vivit et regnat in sǽcula sæculórum.
℟. Amen.
Benedictio:

Ille nos benedícat, qui sine fine vivit et regnat.

De Epístola secúnda ad Corínthios
2 Cor 12:1-4

Si gloriári opórtet (non éxpedit quidem) véniam autem ad visiónes, et revelatiónes Dómini. Scio hóminem in Christo ante annos quatuórdecim (sive in córpore néscio, sive extra corpus, néscio, Deus scit:) raptum huiúsmodi usque ad tértium cælum. Et scio huiúsmodi hóminem, (sive in córpore, sive extra corpus, néscio, Deus scit:) Quóniam raptus est in paradísum: et audívit arcána verba, quæ non licet hómini loqui.

If I must glory (it is not expedient indeed): but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. I know a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I know not, or out of the body, I know not; God knoweth), such a one caught up to the third heaven. And I know such a man (whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not: God knoweth): That he was caught up into paradise, and heard secret words, which it is not granted to man to utter.

Benedictio:

Cuius festum cólimus, ipse intercédat pro nobis ad Dóminum.

Lectio 2
2 Cor 12:5-9

Pro huiúsmodi gloriábor: pro me autem nihil gloriábor, nisi in infirmitátibus meis. Nam, et si volúero gloriári, non ero insípiens: veritátem enim dicam: parco autem, ne quis me exístimet supra id, quod videt in me, aut áliquid audit ex me. Et ne magnitúdo revelatiónum extóllat me, datus est mihi stímulus carnis meæ ángelus sátanæ, qui me colaphízet. Propter quod ter Dóminum rogávi, ut discéderet a me: Et dixit mihi: Súfficit tibi grátia mea: nam virtus in infirmitáte perfícitur.

For such an one I will glory; but for myself I will glory nothing, but in my infirmities. For though I should have a mind to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I will say the truth. But I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth in me, or any thing he heareth from me. And lest the greatness of the revelations should exalt me, there was given me a sting of my flesh, an angel of Satan, to buffet me. For which thing thrice I besought the Lord, that it might depart from me. And he said to me: My grace is sufficient for thee; for power is made perfect in infirmity.

2 Cor 12:9-11

Libénter ígitur gloriábor in infirmitátibus meis, ut inhábitet in me virtus Christi. Propter quod pláceo mihi in infirmitátibus meis, in contuméliis, in necessitátibus, in persecutiónibus, in angústiis pro Christo: Cum enim infírmor, tunc potens sum. Factus sum insípiens, vos me coëgístis. Ego enim a vobis débui commendári: nihil enim minus fui ab iis, qui sunt supra modum, Apóstoli: tamétsi nihil sum.

Gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me. For which cause I please myself in my infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ. For when I am weak, then am I powerful. I am become foolish: you have compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you: for I have no way come short of them that are above measure apostles, although I be nothing.


Gloria adduntur:
Benedictio:

Ad societátem cívium supernórum perdúcat nos Rex Angelórum.

Raymúndus Barcinonénsis, ex nóbili família de Péñafort, Bonóniæ pietátis offíciis ac pontifício civilíque iuri sédulo incúmbens ac doctóris láurea insignítus, ibídem sacros cánones magna cum laude est interpretátus. Mox Barcinonénsis ecclésiæ canonicátu et præpositúra ab antístite Berengário ornátus, virtúte, doctrína et morum suavitáte præfúlsit, ac Deíparæ Vírginis cultum pro víribus auxit. Annum agens quadragésimum quintum inter fratres Prædicatóres adscítus, auctor fuit, ut sanctus Petrus Noláscus (cuius ipse confessiónes audiébat) una cum Iacóbo primo Aragóniæ rege, órdinem beátæ Maríæ de mercéde redemptiónis captivórum fundáverit, cui ipse Raymúndus probatíssimas vivéndi leges præscrípsit. Iussu Gregórii noni Romæ summórum Pontíficum decréta in unum Decretálium volúmen redégit. Tarraconénsi archiepiscopátu constantíssime recusáto, et magistério generáli órdinis Prædicatórum, quod per biénnium sanctíssime administráverat, dimísso, prope centenárius obdormívit in Dómino, anno salútis millésimo ducentésimo septuagésimo quinto. Quem Clemens octávus in Sanctórum númerum rétulit.

Raymond of Barcelona, of the noble family of Pennafort, zealously applied himself at Bologna to works of charity and to the study of ecclesiastical and civil law. When he had received his doctorate, he taught there, gaining great praise for interpreting the sacred canons. Soon Bishop Berengarius honoured him with the offices of canon and provost of the church of Barcelona, and he gave a shining example by his virtue, teaching and gentle ways, also striving with all his power to promote the cult of the Virgin Mother of God. At the age of forty-five, he was professed in the Order of Friars Preachers. It was at his instigation that St. Peter Nolasco, who was his penitent, together with James I, King of Aragon, founded the Order of Our Lady of Mercy for the Redemption of Captives, and Raymond himself drew up admirable rules for its way of life. At the command of Gregory IX, he was summoned to Rome to collect the decrees of the various popes into one volume, called the Decretals. He consistently refused the archbishopric of Tarragona, and he resigned the office of master general of the Order of Preachers after exercising it in a most holy manner for two years. He was nearly an hundred years old when he fell asleep in the Lord in 1275. Clement VIII enrolled his name among those of the Saints.

Orémus.

Deus, qui beátum Raymúndum pœniténtiæ sacraménti insígnem minístrum elegísti, et per maris undas mirabíliter traduxísti: concéde; ut eius intercessióne dignos pœniténtiæ fructus fácere, * et ad ætérnæ salútis portum perveníre valeámus.
Per Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum, Fílium tuum: qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, * per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.

O God, Who didst choose the blessed Raymond to be an eminent minister of the Sacrament of Penance, and in a wonderful manner didst make him to pass over the waves of the sea, grant unto us, at his petition, the grace to bring forth fruits worthy of repentance, and in the end to attain unto the harbour of eternal salvation.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
