Feria secúnda ad Sextam

Ante quam inchoetur Officium, laudabiliter dicitur, sub singulari semper numero, sequens Oratio; pro qua Summus Pontifex Pius Pp. XI sub die 17 Novembris 1933 Indulgentiam trium annorum concessit.

Oratio

APERI, Dómine, os meum ad benedicéndum nomen sanctum tuum: munda quoque cor meum ab ómnibus vanis, pervérsis et aliénis cogitatiónibus; intelléctum illúmina, afféctum inflámma, ut digne, atténte ac devóte hoc Offícium recitáre váleam, et exaudíri mérear ante conspéctum divínæ Majestátis tuæ. Per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. R. Amen.

Dómine, in unióne illíus divínæ intentiónis, qua ipse in terris laudes Deo persolvísti, hanc tibi Horam persólvo.

PATER noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificétur nomen tuum. Advéniat regnum tuum. Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidiánum 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. Amen.

AVE, María, grátia plena; Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui Jesus. Sancta María, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatóribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostræ. Amen.

V. Deus, in adjutórium meum inténde.

R. Dómine, ad adjuvándum me festína.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in sæcula sæculórum. Amen. Allelúja, vel Laus tibi, Dómine, Rex ætérnæ glóriæ.

Hymnus

RECTOR potens, verax Deus,

Qui témperas rerum vices,

Splendóre mane illúminas,

Et ígnibus merídiem:

Exstíngue flammas lítium,

Aufer calórem nóxium,

Confer salútem córporum,

Verámque pacem córdium.

Præsta, Pater piíssime,

Patríque compar Unice,

Cum Spíritu Paráclito

Regnans per omne sæculum.

Amen.

Ant. In tua justítia.

Psalmus 30, i

IN te, Dómine, sperávi, non confúndar in ætérnum: in justítia tua líbera me.

Inclína ad me aurem tuam, accélera ut éruas me.

Esto mihi in Deum protectórem, et in domum refúgii: ut salvum me fácias.

Quóniam fortitúdo mea, et refúgium meum es tu: et propter nomen tuum dedúces me, et enútries me.

Edúces me de láqueo hoc, quem abscondérunt mihi: quóniam tu es protéctor meus.

In manus tuas comméndo spíritum meum: redemísti me, Dómine, Deus veritátis.

Odísti observántes vanitátes, supervácue.

Ego autem in Dómino sperávi: exsultábo, et lætábor in misericórdia tua.

Quóniam respexísti humilitátem meam, salvásti de necessitátibus ánimam meam.

Nec conclusísti me in mánibus inimíci: statuísti in loco spatióso pedes meos.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Psalmus 30, ii

MISERÉRE mei, Dómine, quóniam tríbulor: conturbátus est in ira óculus meus, ánima mea, et venter meus:

Quóniam defécit in dolóre vita mea: et anni mei in gemítibus.

Infirmáta est in paupertáte virtus mea: et ossa mea conturbáta sunt.

Super omnes inimícos meos factus sum oppróbrium et vicínis meis valde: et timor notis meis.

Qui vidébant me, foras fugérunt a me: oblivióni datus sum, tamquam mórtuus a corde.

Factus sum tamquam vas pérditum: quóniam audívi vituperatiónem multórum commorántium in circúitu.

In eo dum convenírent simul advérsum me, accípere ánimam meam consiliáti sunt.

Ego autem in te sperávi, Dómine: dixi: Deus meus es tu: in mánibus tuis sortes meæ.

Éripe me de manu inimicórum meórum, et a persequéntibus me.

Illústra fáciem tuam super servum tuum, salvum me fac in misericórdia tua: Dómine, non confúndar, quóniam invocávi te.

Erubéscant ímpii, et deducántur in inférnum: muta fiant lábia dolósa.

Quæ loquúntur advérsus justum iniquitátem, in supérbia, et in abusióne.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Psalmus 30, iii

QUAM magna multitúdo dulcédinis tuæ, Dómine, quam abscondísti timéntibus te.

Perfecísti eis, qui sperant in te, in conspéctu filiórum hóminum.

Abscóndes eos in abscóndito faciéi tuæ a conturbatióne hóminum.

Próteges eos in tabernáculo tuo a contradictióne linguárum.

Benedíctus Dóminus: quóniam mirificávit misericórdiam suam mihi in civitáte muníta.

Ego autem dixi in excéssu mentis meæ: Projéctus sum a fácie oculórum tuórum.

Ídeo exaudísti vocem oratiónis meæ, dum clamárem ad te.

Dilígite Dóminum, omnes sancti ejus: quóniam veritátem requíret Dóminus, et retríbuet abundánter faciéntibus supérbiam.

Viríliter ágite, et confortétur cor vestrum, omnes, qui sperátis in Dómino.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Ant. In tua justítia líbera me, Dómine.

Capit. Rom.13, 8

NÉMINI quidquam debeátis, nisi ut ínvicem diligátis: qui enim díligit próximum, legem implévit.

R. Deo grátias.

R. br. Benedícam Dóminum * In omni témpore. Benedícam Dóminum in omni témpore. V. Semper laus ejus in ore meo. In omni témpore. Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto. Benedícam Dóminum in omni témpore.

V. Dóminus regit me, et nihil mihi déerit.

R. In loco páscuæ ibi me collocávit.

V. Dóminus vobíscum.

R. Et cum spíritu tuo.

Orémus.

Oratio

(ex Commune Festorum beatæ Mariæ Virginis)

CONCÉDE nos fámulos tuos, quæsumus, Dómine Deus, perpétua mentis et córporis sanitáte gaudére: et, gloriósa beátæ Maríæ semper Vírginis intercessióne, a præsénti liberári tristítia et ætérna pérfrui lætítia. Per Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum fílium tuum, qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitate Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sæcula sæculórum. R. Amen.

V. Dóminus vobíscum.

R. Et cum spíritu tuo.

V. Benedicámus Dómino.

R. Deo grátias.

V. Fidélium ánimæ per misericórdiam Dei requiéscant in pace.

R. Amen.

PATER noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificétur nomen tuum. Advéniat regnum tuum. Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidiánum 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. Amen.

Monday Sext

Before the Office is begun, it is commendable to say the following Prayer, the singular number being used throughout; for which Pope Pius XI granted an indulgence of 3 years (S. Ap., November 17, 1933).

Prayer

OPEN my mouth, O Lord, to bless thy holy name: cleanse also my heart from all vain, evil and distracting thoughts; enlighten my understanding, inflame my will, that I may worthily recite this Office with attention and devotion, and deserve to be heard in the presence of thy divine Majesty. Through Christ our Lord. R. Amen.

O Lord, in union with that divine intention with which thou didst praise God on earth, I offer to thee this Hour.

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.

HAIL, Mary, full of grace; The Lord is with thee: blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, JESUS. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

V. O God, come to my assistance.

R. O Lord, make haste to help me.

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. Alleluia, or Praise be to Thee, O Lord, King of eternal glory.

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;

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.

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.

Ant. In thy justice.

Psalm 30, i

IN thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: deliver me in thy justice.

Bow down thy ear to me: make haste to deliver me.

Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, to save me.

For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name’s sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.

Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: for thou art my protector.

Into thy hands I commend my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth.

Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, to no purpose.

But I have hoped in the Lord: I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy.

For thou hast regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.

And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.

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.

Psalm 30, ii

HAVE mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:

For my life is wasted with grief: and my years in sighs.

My strength is weakened through poverty and my bones are disturbed.

I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; and a fear to my acquaintance.

They that saw me without fled from me. I am forgotten as one dead from the heart.

I am become as a vessel that is destroyed. For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about.

While they assembled together against me, they consulted to take away my life.

But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my God. My lots are in thy hands.

Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; and from them that persecute me.

Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy.

Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee.

Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell. Let deceitful lips be made dumb.

Which speak iniquity against the just, with pride and abuse.

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.

Psalm 30, iii

O HOW great is the multitude of thy sweetness, O Lord, which thou hast hidden for them that fear thee!

Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, in the sight of the sons of men.

Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy face, from the disturbance of men.

Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.

Blessed be the Lord, for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.

But I said in the excess of my mind: I am cast away from before thy eyes.

Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, when I cried to thee.

O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord will require truth, and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.

Do ye manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.

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.

Ant. In thy justice deliver me, O Lord.

Little Chapter Rom. 13, 8

OWE no man any thing, but to love one another. For he that loveth his neighbour, hath fulfilled the law.

R. Thanks be to God.

Short response: I will bless the Lord * At all times. I will bless the Lord at all times. V. His praise shall be always in my mouth. At all times. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. I will bless the Lord at all times.

V. The Lord ruleth me, and I shall want nothing.

R. He hath set me in a place of pasture.

V. The Lord be with you.

R. And with thy spirit.

Let us pray.

Prayer

GRANT, we beseech thee, O Lord God, to us thy servants, that we may evermore enjoy health of mind and body: and by the glorious intercession of blessed Mary, ever a Virgin, may be delivered from present sorrows, and enjoy everlasting gladness. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

R. And with thy spirit.

V. Let us bless the Lord.

R. Thanks be to God.

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.
