Tu ad dexteram Dei sedes,in gloria Patris.ludex crederis esse venturus.

Adagio:Te ergo quaesumus, tuis famulis subveni:quos pretioso sanguine redemisti.

Allegro:Aeterna fac cum sanctis tuisin gloria numerari.Salvum fac populum tuum,Domine, et benedic haereditati tuae.Et rege eos, et extolle illos usque in aeternum.Per singulos dies benedicimus te;Et laudamus Nomen tuum in saeculum,et in saeculum saeculi.Dignare, Domine, die isto sine peccato nos custodire.Miserere nostri Domine, miserere nostri.Fiat misericordia tua, Domine, super nos,quemadmodum speravimus in teoIn te, Domine, speravi:non confundar in aeternum.

The Lord said unto my Lord: Sit thou at my right hand,until Imake thine enemies thy footstool.The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out ofZion:rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power,in the beauties of holiness from thewomb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

,The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent,"Thou art a priest for everafter the order of Melchizedech.The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kingsin the day ofhis wrath. He shall judge among theheathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies;he shall wound the heads over many countries.He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shallhe lift up the head. Glory be to the Father...

I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in theassembly of the upright, and in the congregation.The works of the Lord are great,sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.His work is honourable and glorious:and his righteousness endureth for ever.He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered:the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.He hath given meat unto them thatfear him:he will ever be mindful of his covenant.He hath shewed his people the power ofhis works,that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all hiscommandments are sure. They stand fast for ever andever, and are done in truth and uprightness.He sent redemption unto his people: he hathcommanded his covenantfor ever:holy and reverend is his name.The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: agood understanding have all they that dohis commandments: his praise endureth for ever.Glory be to the Father, and to the Son...

Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord, thatdelighteth greatly in his commandments.His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation ofthe upright shall be blessed.Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and hisrighteousness endureth for ever.Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness:he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth:he will guide his affairs with discretion.

Quia in aeternum non commovebitur.In memoria aeterna erit justus:ab auditione mala non timebit.Paratum cor ejus sperare in Domino.Confirmatum est cor ejus: non commovebiturdonec despiciat inimicos suos.Dispersit, dedit pauperibus:justitia ejus manet in saeculum saeculi,cornu ejus exaltabitur in gloria.Peccator videbit, et irascetur, dentibus suisfremet et tabescet:desiderium peccatorum perebit.Gloria Patri, et Filio etc

4. LAUDATE PUERI (Psalm 113)Laudate, pueri, Dominum; laudate nomen Domini.Sit nomen Domini benedictumex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum.A solis ortu usque ad occasumlaudabile nomen Domini.Excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus,et super cae los gloria ejus.

Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster,qui in altis habitat,et humilia respicit in caelo et in terra?Suscitans a terra inopem, et de stercore erigenspauperem: ut collocet eum cum principibus,cum principibus populi sui.Qui habitare facit sterilem in domo,matrem filiorum laetantem. Gloria Patri, et Filio etc

5. LAUDATE DOMINUM (Psalm 117)Laudate Dominum, omnes gentes;laudate eum, omnes populi.Quoniam confirmata est super nos misericordia ejus,et veritas Domini manet in aeternum.Gloria Patri, et Filio etc

MAGNIFICATMagnificat anima mea Dominum; et exultavit spiritusmeus in Deo salutari meo; quia respexit humilitatemancillae suae, ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicentomnes generationes.Quia fecit mihi magna, qui potens est, et sanctumnomen eius, et misericordia eius a progenie inprogenies timentibus eum.Fecit potentiam in bracchio suo, dispersit superbosmente cordis sui, deposuit potentes de sede, etexaltavit humiles.Esurientes implevit bonis, et divites dimisit inanes.Suscepit Israel, puerum suum, recordatusmisericordiae suae. Sicut locutus est ad patresnostros, Abraham et semini eius in saecula. ,Gloria Patri et Filio etc

Surely he shall not be moved for ever:the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.He shall not be afraid of evil tidings:his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.His heart is established, he shall not be afraid,until he see his desire upon his enemies.He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor;his righteousness endureth for ever;his horn shall be exalted with honour.The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnashwitt) his teeth and melt away:the ''desire of the wicked shall perish.Glory be to the Father, and to the Son...

Praise, 0 ye servants of the Lord, praise the name ofthe Lord. Blessed be the name of the Lordfrom this time forth and for evermore.From the rising of the sun unto the going down of thesame the Lord's name is to be praised.The Lord is high above all nations,and his glory above the heavens.Who is like unto the Lord our God,who dwelleth on high who humbleth himself tobehold the things that are in heaven, and in the earthlHe raiseth up the poor out of the dust and lifteth theneedy out of the dunghill; that he may set him withprinces, even with the princes ofhis people.He maketh the barren woman to keep house,and to be a joyful mother of children. Glory be...

o praise the Lord, all ye nations:praise him, all ye people.For his merciful kindness is great toward us:and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever.Glory be to the Father, and to the Son...

My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hathrejoIced in God my saviour. For he hath regarded thelowliness ofhis handmaiden. For behold, fromhenceforth, all generations shall call me blessed.For He that is mighty hath magnified me, and holy isHis Name. And His mercy is on them that fear Him,throughout all generations. He hath showed strengthwith His arm; He hath scattered the proud in theimagination of their hearts. He hath put down themighty from their seat and hath exalted the humbleand meek. He hath filled the hungry with good things,and the rich He hath sent empty away.He remembering His mercy hath holpen His servantIsraeli as He promised to our forefathers, Abrahamand his seed, for ever. Glory be...
