Feria tértia 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. Suscepísti me, Dómine.

Psalmus 40

BEÁTUS qui intélligit super egénum, et páuperem: in die mala liberábit eum Dóminus.

Dóminus consérvet eum, et vivíficet eum, et beátum fáciat eum in terra: et non tradat eum in ánimam inimicórum ejus.

Dóminus opem ferat illi super lectum dolóris ejus: univérsum stratum ejus versásti in infirmitáte ejus.

Ego dixi: Dómine, miserére mei: sana ánimam meam, quia peccávi tibi.

Inimíci mei dixérunt mala mihi: Quando moriétur, et períbit nomen ejus?

Et si ingrediebátur ut vidéret, vana loquebátur: cor ejus congregávit iniquitátem sibi.

Egrediebátur foras, et loquebátur in idípsum.

Advérsum me susurrábant omnes inimíci mei: advérsum me cogitábant mala mihi.

Verbum iníquum constituérunt advérsum me: Numquid qui dormit non adjíciet ut resúrgat?

Étenim homo pacis meæ, in quo sperávi: qui edébat panes meos, magnificávit super me supplantatiónem.

Tu autem, Dómine, miserére mei, et resúscita me: et retríbuam eis.

In hoc cognóvi quóniam voluísti me: quóniam non gaudébit inimícus meus super me.

Me autem propter innocéntiam suscepísti: et confirmásti me in conspéctu tuo in ætérnum.

Benedíctus Dóminus, Deus Israel, a sæculo et usque in sæculum: fiat, fiat.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

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

Psalmus 41, i

QUEMÁDMODUM desíderat cervus ad fontes aquárum: ita desíderat ánima mea ad te, Deus.

Sitívit ánima mea ad Deum fortem vivum: quando véniam, et apparébo ante fáciem Dei?

Fuérunt mihi lácrimæ meæ panes die ac nocte: dum dícitur mihi quotídie: Ubi est Deus tuus?

Hæc recordátus sum, et effúdi in me ánimam meam: quóniam transíbo in locum tabernáculi admirábilis, usque ad domum Dei.

In voce exsultatiónis, et confessiónis: sonus epulántis.

Quare tristis es, ánima mea? et quare contúrbas me?

Spera in Deo, quóniam adhuc confitébor illi: salutáre vultus mei, et Deus meus.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

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

Psalmus 41, ii

AD meípsum ánima mea conturbáta est: proptérea memor ero tui de terra Jordánis, et Hermóniim a monte módico.

Abýssus abýssum ínvocat, in voce cataractárum tuárum.

Omnia excélsa tua, et fluctus tui super me transiérunt.

In die mandávit Dóminus misericórdiam suam: et nocte cánticum ejus.

Apud me orátio Deo vitæ meæ, dicam Deo: Suscéptor meus es.

Quare oblítus es mei? et quare contristátus incédo, dum afflígit me inimícus?

Dum confringúntur ossa mea, exprobravérunt mihi qui tríbulant me inimíci mei.

Dum dicunt mihi per síngulos dies: Ubi est Deus tuus? quare tristis es, ánima mea? et quare contúrbas me?

Spera in Deo, quóniam adhuc confitébor illi: salutáre vultus mei, et Deus meus.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

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

Ant. Suscepísti me, Dómine: et confirmásti me in conspéctu tuo.

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.

Tuesday 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. Thou hast upheld me, O Lord.

Psalm 40

BLESSED is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.

The Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth: and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.

The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.

I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.

My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish?

And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: his heart gathered together iniquity to itself.

He went out and spoke to the same purpose.

All my enemies whispered together against me: they devised evils to me.

They determined against me an unjust word: shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?

For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.

But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again: and I will requite them.

By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me: because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.

But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence: and hast established me in thy sight for ever.

Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity. So be it. So be it.

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 41, i

AS the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so my soul panteth after thee, O God.

My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; when shall I come and appear before the face of God?

My tears have been my bread day and night, whilst it is said to me daily: Where is thy God?

These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me: for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God:

With the voice of joy and praise; the noise of one feasting.

Why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou trouble me?

Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance, and my God.

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 41, ii

MY soul is troubled within myself: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan and Hermoniim, from the little hill.

Deep calleth on deep, at the noise of thy flood-gates.

All thy heights and thy billows have passed over me.

In the daytime the Lord hath commanded his mercy; and a canticle to him in the night.

With me is prayer to the God of my life. I will say to God: Thou art my support.

Why hast thou forgotten me? and why go I mourning, whilst my enemy afflicteth me?

Whilst my bones are broken, my enemies who trouble me have reproached me;

Whilst they say to me day by day: Where is thy God?

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me?

Hope thou in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance, and my God.

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. Thou hast upheld me, O Lord: and hast established me in thy sight.

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.

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.
