Ant. When you hear the voice of the Lord today * Do not harden your heart.
Ant. When you hear the voice of the Lord today * Do not harden your heart.
Come let us praise the Lord with joy: let us joyfully sing to God our saviour. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving; and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.
Ant. When you hear the voice of the Lord today * Do not harden your heart.
For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. For the Lord will not cast off his people: for in his hand are all the ends of the earth, and the heights of the mountains are his.
Ant. Do not harden your heart.
For the sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. (genuflect) Come let us adore and fall down: and weep before the Lord that made us: For he is the Lord our God: and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
Ant. When you hear the voice of the Lord today * Do not harden your heart.
As in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness: where your fathers tempted me, they proved me, and saw my works.
Ant. Do not harden your heart.
Forty years long was I offended with that generation, and I said: These always err in heart. And these men have not known my ways: so I swore in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.
Ant. When you hear the voice of the Lord today * Do not harden your heart.
omit Glory be
Ant. When you hear the voice of the Lord today * Do not harden your heart.

Hymnus {ex Psalterio secundum tempora}
Pange, lingua, gloriósi
Láuream certáminis,
Et super Crucis trophǽo
Dic triúmphum nóbilem,
Quáliter Redémptor orbis
Immolátus vícerit.
De paréntis protoplásti
Fraude Factor cóndolens,
Quando pomi noxiális
In necem morsu ruit,
Ipse lignum tunc notávit,
Damna ligni ut sólveret.
Hoc opus nostræ salútis
Ordo depopóscerat,
Multifórmis proditóris
Ars ut artem fálleret,
Et medélam ferret inde,
Hostis unde lǽserat.
Quando venit ergo sacri
Plenitúdo témporis,
Missus est ab arce Patris
Natus, orbis Cónditor,
Atque ventre virgináli
Carne amíctus pródiit.
Vagit infans inter arcta
Cónditus præsépia:
Membra pannis involúta
Virgo Mater álligat:
Et Dei manus pedésque
Stricta cingit fáscia.
Sempitérna sit beátæ
Trinitáti glória,
Æqua Patri, Filióque;
Par decus Paráclito:
Uníus Triníque nomen
Laudet univérsitas.
Amen.

Hymn {from the Psalter for the season of the Church year}
Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle
Sing the last, the dread affray;
O'er the cross, the victor's trophy,
Sound the high triumphal lay:
Tell how Christ, the world's Redeemer,
As a victim won the day.
God, his Maker, sorely grieving
That the first-made Adam fell,
When he ate the fruit of sorrow,
Whose reward was death and hell,
Noted then this wood, the ruin
Of the ancient wood to quell.
For the work of our salvation
Needs would have his order so,
And the multiform deceiver's
Art by art would overthrow,
And from thence would bring the med'cine
Whence the insult of the foe.
Wherefore, when the sacred fullness
Of the appointed time was come,
This world's Maker left his Father,
Sent the heav'nly mansion from,
And proceeded, God Incarnate,
Of the Virgin's holy womb.
Weeps the infant in the manger
That in Bethlehem's stable stands;
And his limbs the Virgin Mother
Doth compose in swaddling bands,
Meetly thus in linen folding
Of her God the feet and hands.
To the Trinity be glory
Everlasting, as is meet;
Equal to the Father, equal
To the Son, and Paraclete:
Trinal Unity, whose praises
All created things repeat.
Amen.

Ier 17:13-18
13 Exspectátio Israël, Dómine: omnes, qui te derelínquunt, confundéntur: recedéntes a te, in terra scribéntur: quóniam dereliquérunt venam aquárum vivéntium Dóminum.
14 Sana me, Dómine, et sanábor: salvum me fac, et salvus ero: quóniam laus mea tu es.
15 Ecce ipsi dicunt ad me: Ubi est verbum Dómini? véniat.
16 Et ego non sum turbátus, te pastórem sequens: et diem hóminis non desiderávi, tu scis. Quod egréssum est de lábiis meis, rectum in conspéctu tuo fuit.
17 Non sis tu mihi formídini, spes mea tu in die afflictiónis.
18 Confundántur qui me persequúntur, et non confúndar ego: páveant illi, et non páveam ego: induc super eos diem afflictiónis, et dúplici contritióne cóntere eos.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℟. Locúti sunt advérsum me lingua dolósa, et sermónibus ódii circumdedérunt me: pro eo ut me dilígerent, detrahébant mihi:

Lesson from the book of Jeremias
Jer 17:13-18
13 O Lord, the hope of Israel: all that forsake thee shall be confounded: they that depart from thee, shall be written in the earth: because they have forsaken the Lord, the vein of living waters.
14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed: save me, and I shall be saved, for thou art my praise.
15 Behold they say to me: Where is the word of the Lord? let it come.
16 And I am not troubled, following thee for my pastor, and I have not desired the day of man, thou knowest. That which went out of my lips, hath been right in thy sight.
17 Be not thou a terror unto me, thou art my hope in the day of affliction.
18 Let them be confounded that persecute me, and let not me be confounded: let them be afraid, and let not me be afraid: bring upon them the day of affliction, and with a double destruction, destroy them.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. They have spoken against me with a lying tongue; they compassed me about also with words of hatred: in return for my love they were my adversaries:
* But I gave myself unto prayer; and Thou hast heard me, Lord my God!
℣. And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
℟. But I gave myself unto prayer; and Thou hast heard me, Lord my God!

Ier 18:13-18
13 Quis audívit tália horribília, quæ fecit nimis virgo Israël?
14 Numquid defíciet de petra agri nix Líbani? aut evélli possunt aquæ erumpéntes frígidæ, et defluéntes?
15 Quia oblítus est mei pópulus meus, frustra libántes, et impingéntes in viis suis, in sémitis sǽculi, ut ambulárent per eas in itínere non trito:
16 Ut fíeret terra eórum in desolatiónem, et in síbilum sempitérnum: omnis qui præteríerit per eam obstupéscet, et movébit caput suum.
17 Sicut ventus urens dispérgam eos coram inimíco: dorsum, et non fáciem osténdam eis in die perditiónis eórum.
18 Et dixérunt: Veníte et cogitémus contra Ieremíam cogitatiónes: non enim períbit lex a sacerdóte, neque consílium a sapiénte, nec sermo a prophéta: veníte, et percutiámus eum lingua, et non attendámus ad univérsos sermónes eius.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Dixérunt ímpii apud se, non recte cogitántes: Circumveniámus iustum, quóniam contrárius est opéribus nostris: promíttit se sciéntiam Dei habére, Fílium Dei se nóminat, et gloriátur patrem se habére Deum:
* Videámus si sermónes illíus veri sunt: et si est vere Fílius Dei, líberet eum de mánibus nostris: morte turpíssima condemnémus eum.
℣. Tamquam nugáces æstimáti sumus ab illo, et ábstinet se a viis nostris tamquam ab immundítiis: et præfert novíssima iustórum.

Jer 18:13-18
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord: Ask among the nations: Who hath heard such horrible things, as the virgin of Israel hath done to excess?
14 Shall the snow of Libanus fail from the rock of the field? or can the cold waters that gush out and run down, be taken away?
15 Because my people have forgotten me, sacrificing in vain, and stumbling in their ways, in ancient paths, to walk by them in a way not trodden:
16 That their land might be given up to desolation, and to a perpetual hissing: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and wag his head.
17 As a burning will I scatter them before the enemy: I will shew them the back, and not the face, in the day of their destruction.
18 And they said: Come, and let us invent devices against Jeremias: for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet: come, and let us strike him with the tongue, and let us give no heed to all his words.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. The ungodly said, reasoning with themselves, but not aright; Let us lie in wait for the righteous, because he is clean contrary to our doings he professeth to have the knowledge of God, he calleth himself the Son of God, and boasteth that he hath God to his Father.
* Let us see if his words be true; and, if he be indeed the Son of God, let Him deliver him from our hand; let us condemn him with a shameful death.
℣. We are esteemed of him as counterfeits, and he abstaineth from our ways as from filthiness, and commendeth the end of the just.
℟. Let us see if his words be true; and, if he be indeed the Son of God, let Him deliver him from our hand; let us condemn him with a shameful death.

19 Give heed to me, O Lord, and hear the voice of my adversaries.
20 Shall evil be rendered for good, because they have digged a pit for my soul? Remember that I have stood in thy sight, to speak good for them, and turn away thy indignation from them.
21 Therefore deliver up their children to famine, and bring them into the hands of the sword: let their wives be bereaved of children and widows: and let their husbands be slain by death: let their young men be stabbed with the sword in battle.
22 Let a cry be heard out of their houses: for thou shalt bring the robber upon them suddenly: because they have digged a pit to take me, and have hid snares for my feet.
23 But thou, O Lord, knowest all their counsel against me unto death: forgive not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from thy sight: let them be overthrown before thy eyes, in the time of thy wrath do thou destroy them.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
