And gives seasons to times,
To alleviate weariness.

Deserts the way of harm.

And the sea becomes calm:

The cock arouses the sleeping,
And rebukes the drowsy,
The cock accuses the denying.

To the sick, health is restored,
The sword of the thief is concealed,
And faith is restored to the fallen.

L

ook upon us, Jesus, as we stumble,
And correct us by seeing us:
If you look upon us, we will stand,
And with tears, our guilt will be dissolved.

Y

And dispel the sleep of our minds:
May our voices first sound your praise,
And let us sing to you with our mouths.

Glory to the only-begotten Son,
Together with the Holy Spirit,
Unto the eternal ages.

Many say to my soul: * There is no salvation for him in his God.
But thou, O Lord art my protector, * my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
I have cried to the Lord with my voice: * and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
I have slept and taken my rest: * and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
I will not fear thousands of the people, * surrounding me:
Arise, O Lord; * save me, O my God.
For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: * thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
Salvation is of the Lord: * and thy blessing is upon thy people.

M

iserére mei, Deus, secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam: * et secúndum multitúdinem miseratiónum tuárum dele iniquitátes meas.
Usquequáque laba me ab injustítia mea: * et a peccáto meo munda me.
Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego agnósco: * et peccátum meum contra me est semper.
Tibi soli peccábi, et malum coram te feci: * ut justificéris in sermónibus tuis, et vincas dum judicáris.
Ecce enim in iniquitátibus concéptus sum: * et in peccátis péperit me mater mea.
Ecce enim veritátem dilexsísti: * incérta et occúlta sapiéntiæ tuæ manifestásti mihi.
Adspárges me ysópo, et mundábor: * labábis me, et supra nibem dealbábor.
Audítui meo dabis gáudium, et lætítiam: * et exultábunt ossa humiliáta.
Avérte fáciem tuam a peccátis meis: * et omnes iniquitátes meas dele.
Cor mundum crea in me, Deus, * spíritum rectum ínnoba in viscéribus meis.
Ne proícias me a fácie tua: * spíritum sanctum tuum ne áuferas a me.
Redde mihi lætítiam salutáris tui: * spíritu principáli confírma me.
Docéam inícos vias tuas: * et ímpii ad te converténtur.
Líbera me de sanguínibus, Deus, Deus salútis meæ : * laudábit lingua mea justítias tuas.
Dómine, lábia mea apéries: * et os meum adnuntiábit laudem tuam.
Quóniam, si voluísses sacrifícium dedíssem útique: * holocáustis vero non delectáberis.
Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum, et humiliátum Deus non spernet.
Benígne fac, Dómine, in bona voluntáte tua Sion: * ut ædificéntur muri Jerúsalem.
Tunc acceptábis sacrifícium justítiæ, oblatiónes, et holocáusta: * tunc impónes super altáre tuum vítulos.

{From the Season}

P.

The Lord be always with you.

℟.

And with thy spirit.

Antiphon.

To thee only have I sinned: have mercy on me, O God.

Psalm 50.

H

ave mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy: * and according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my iniquity.
Wash me yet more from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.
For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is always before me.
To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: * that thou mayst be justified in thy words, and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
For behold I was conceived in iniquities; * and in sins did my mother conceive me.
For behold thou hast loved truth: * the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: * thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: * and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
Turn away thy face from my sins, * and blot out all my iniquities.
Create a clean heart in me, O God: * and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
Cast me not away from thy face; * and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, * and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
I will teach the unjust thy ways: * and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: * and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: * and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: * with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; * that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: * then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.
Glory and honor be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, for ever and ever. Amen.

Antiphon.

To thee only have I sinned: have mercy on me, O God.

iserére mei, Deus, miserére mei: quóniam in te confídit ánima mea: * et in umbra alárum tuárum sperábo, donec tránseat iníquitas.
Clamábo ad Deum altíssimum: * ad Dóminum qui benefécit mihi.
Misit de cœlo, et salvávit me: * dedit in oppróbrium conculcántes me.
Misit Deus misericórdiam suam, et veritátem suam: * et ánimam meam erípuit de médio catulórum leónum, dormíbi conturbátus.
Fílii hóminum dentes eórum arma et sagítta: * et lingua eórum máchæra acúta.
Exaltáre super cœlos Deus: * et in omnem terram glória tua.
Láqueos parabérunt pédibus meis: * et incurbabérunt ánimam meam.
Fodérunt ante fáciem meam fóbeam: * et ipsi incidérunt in eam.
Parátum cor meum Deus, parátum cor meum: * cantábo et psallam.
Exúrge glória mea: * exúrge psaltérium, et cíthara: exúrgam dilúculo.
Confitébor tibi in pópulis Dómine: * psalmum dicam tibi inter gentes.
Quóniam magnificáta est usque ad cœlos misericórdia tua: * et véritas tua usque ad nubes.
Exaltáre super cœlos Deus: * et super omnem terram glória tua.
Glória, et honor Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: for my soul trusteth in thee.

Psalm 56.

H

ave mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: for my soul trusteth in thee: * and in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, until iniquity pass away.
I will cry to God the most High; * to God who hath done good to me.
He hath sent from heaven and delivered me: * he hath made them a reproach that trod upon me.
God hath sent his mercy and his truth, * and he hath delivered my soul from the midst of the young lions. I slept troubled.
The sons of men, whose teeth are weapons and arrows, * and their tongue a sharp sword.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, * and thy glory above all the earth.
They prepared a snare for my feet; * and they bowed down my soul.
They dug a pit before my face, * and they are fallen into it.
My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: * I will sing, and rehearse a psalm.
Arise, O my glory, arise psaltery and harp: * I will arise early.
I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: * I will sing a psalm to thee among the nations.
For thy mercy is magnified even to the heavens: * and thy truth unto the clouds.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: * and thy glory above all the earth.
Glory and honor be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, for ever and ever. Amen.
