Graduale (Ps. 82, 19.14)
Sciant gentes quoniam nomen tibi Deus: tu solus Altissimus super omnem terram. Deus meus, pone illos ut rotam, et sicut stipulam ante faciem venti. Let the Gentiles know that God is Thy Name: Thou alone art the Most High over all the earth. O my God, make them like a wheel, and as stubble before the wind.
Tractus (Ps., 59, 4.6)
Commovisti Domine terram, et conturbasti eam. Sana contritiones eius, quia mota est. Thou hast moved the earth, O Lord, and hast troubled it. Heal Thou the breaches thereof, for it has been moved.
Ut fugiant a facie arcus, ut liberentur electi tui. That they may flee from before the bow: that Thine elect may be delivered.
Offertorium (Ps. 16, 5-7)
Perfice gressus meos in semitis tuis, ut non moveantur vestigia mea: inclina aurem tuam, et exaudi verba mea: mirifica misericordias tuas, qui salvos facis sperantes in te, Domine. Perfect Thou my goings in Thy paths, that my footsteps be not moved: incline Thine ear, and hear my words: show forth Thy wonderful mercies, Thou who savest them that trust in Thee, O Lord.
Communio (Ps. 42, 4)
Introibo ad altare Dei, ad Deum, qui laetificat iuventutem meam. I will go in unto the altar of God. To God who giveth joy to my youth.
Tussenzang (ps. 42, 1):
Iudica me, Deus, et discerne causam meam de gente non sancta: Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation which is not holy:
ab homine iniquo, et doloso erue me. deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.
