Hymn
O God of truth, O Lord of might,
Who orderest time and change aright,
Who send’st the early morning ray,
And light’st the glow of perfect day:
Rector potens, verax Deus,
Qui témperas rerum vices,
Splendóre mane ínstruis,
Et ígnibus merídiem:
Extinguish thou each sinful fire,
And banish every ill desire;
And while thou keep’st the body whole,
Shed forth thy peace upon the soul.
Exstíngue flammas lítium,
Aufer calórem nóxium,
Confer salútem córporum,
Verámque pacem córdium.
Almighty Father, hear our cry,
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High,
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
Amen.
Præsta, Pater piíssime,
Patríque compar Únice,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito
Regnans per omne sǽculum.
Amen.

Psalm 122 [1]
122:1 To thee have I lifted up my eyes, * who dwellest in heaven.
122:2 Behold as the eyes of servants * are on the hands of their masters,
122:2 As the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress: * so are our eyes unto the Lord our God, until he have mercy on us.
122:3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: * for we are greatly filled with contempt.
122:4 For our soul is greatly filled: * we are a reproach to the rich, and contempt to the proud.
122:1 Ad te levávi óculos meos, * qui hábitas in cælis.
122:2 Ecce, sicut óculi servórum * in mánibus dominórum suórum,
122:2 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:
122:4 Quia multum repléta est ánima nostra: * oppróbrium abundántibus, et despéctio supérbis.

Psalm 123 [2]
123:1 If it had not been that the Lord was with us, let Israel now say: * If it had not been that the Lord was with us,
123:2 When men rose up against us, * perhaps they had swallowed us up alive.
123:3 When their fury was enkindled against us, * perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.
123:5 Our soul hath passed through a torrent: * perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable.
123:6 Blessed be the Lord, * who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth.
123:7 Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow * out of the snare of the fowlers.
123:7 The snare is broken, * and we are delivered.
123:8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, * who made heaven and earth.
123:1 Nisi quia Dóminus erat in nobis, dicat nunc Israël: * nisi quia Dóminus erat in nobis,
123:2 Cum exsúrgerent hómines in nos, * forte vivos deglutíssent nos:
123:3 Cum irascerétur furor eórum in nos, * 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.
123:7 Ánima nostra sicut passer erépta est * de láqueo venántium:

Psalm 124 [3]
124:1 They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Sion: * he shall not be moved for ever that dwelleth in Jerusalem.
124:2 Mountains are round about it: * so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth now and for ever.
124:3 For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: * that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.
124:4 Do good, O Lord, to those that are good, * and to the upright of heart.
124:5 But such as turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead out with the workers of iniquity: * peace upon Israel.
124:1 Qui confídunt in Dómino, sicut mons Sion: * non commovébitur in ætérnum, qui hábitat in Ierúsalem.
124:2 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.
124:4 Bénefac, Dómine, bonis, * et rectis corde.
124:5 Declinántes autem in obligatiónes addúcet Dóminus cum operántibus iniquitátem: * pax super Israël.
