Hymn {Votive}
Thou heavenly, new Jerusalem,
Vision of peace in prophet's dream!
With living stones built up on high,
And rising to yon starry sky;
In bridal pomp thy form is crowned,
With thousand thousand angels round!
O bride, betrothed in happy hour,
The Father's glory is thy dower;
The bridegroom's grace is shed on thee
Thou queen all fair eternally;
To Christ allied, thy Prince adored,
Bright shining city of the Lord!
Behold with pearls they glittering stand
thy peaceful gates to all expand;
By grace and strength divinely shed
Each mortal thither may be led;
Who, kindled by Christ's love, will dare
All earthly sufferings now to bear.
By many a salutary stroke,
By many a weary blow that broke,
Or polished with a workman's skill,
The stones that form that glorious pile,
They all are fitly framed to lie
In their appointed place on high.
Fair and well pleasing in thy sight,
Parent most high, enthroned in light,
And for thine only Son most meet,
And thee, all-glorious Paraclete,
To whom praise, power, and glory rise
Forever through the eternal skies.
Amen.

87:8 Thy wrath is strong over me: * and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me.
87:9 Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: * they have set me an abomination to themselves.
87:9 I was delivered up, and came not forth: * my eyes languished through poverty.
87:10 All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: * I stretched out my hands to thee.
87:11 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? * or shall physicians raise to life, and give praise to thee?
87:12 Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy: * and thy truth in destruction?
87:13 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark; * and thy justice in the land of forgetfulness?
87:14 But I, O Lord, have cried to thee: * and in the morning my prayer shall prevent thee.
87:15 Lord, why castest thou off my prayer: * why turnest thou away thy face from me?
87:16 I am poor, and in labours from my youth: * and being exalted have been humbled and troubled.
87:17 Thy wrath hath come upon me: * and thy terrors have troubled me.

Psalm 90 [7]
90:1 He that dwelleth in the aid of the most High, * shall abide under the protection of the God of Jacob.
90:2 He shall say to the Lord: Thou art my protector, and my refuge: * my God, in him will I trust.

90:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand: * but it shall not come nigh thee.
90:8 But thou shalt consider with thy eyes: * and shalt see the reward of the wicked.
90:9 Because thou, O Lord, art my hope: * thou hast made the most High thy refuge.
90:10 There shall no evil come to thee: * nor shall the scourge come near thy dwelling.
90:11 For he hath given his angels charge over thee; * to keep thee in all thy ways.
90:12 In their hands they shall bear thee up: * lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
90:13 Thou shalt walk upon the asp and the basilisk: * and thou shalt trample under foot the lion and the dragon.
90:14 Because he hoped in me I will deliver him: * I will protect him because he hath known my name.
90:15 He shall cry to me, and I will hear him: * I am with him in tribulation, I will deliver him, and I will glorify him.
90:16 I will fill him with length of days; * and I will shew him my salvation.

De libro secundo Paralipómenon
2 Chr 7:1-5
1 Cum complésset Sálomon fundens preces, ignis descéndit de cælo et devorávit holocáusta et víctimas: et majéstas Dómini implévit domum.
2 Nec póterant sacerdótes íngredi templum Dómini, eo quod implésset majéstas Dómini, templum Dómini.
3 Sed et omnes fílii Israél vidébant descendéntem ignem, et glóriam Dómini super domum: et corruéntes proni in terram super paviméntum stratum lápide, adoravérunt et laudavérunt Dóminum: Quóniam bonus, quóniam in sǽculum misericórdia ejus.
4 Rex autem et omnis pópulus immolábant víctimas coram Dómino.
5 Mactávit ígitur rex Sálomon hóstias, boum vigínti duo míllia, aríetum centum vigínti míllia: et dedicávit domum Dei rex et univérsus pópulus.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.

Lesson from the book of Paralipomenon
2 Chr 7:1-5
1 And when Solomon had made an end of his prayer, fire came down from heaven, and consumed the holocausts and the victims: and the majesty of the Lord filled the house.
2 Neither could the priests enter into the temple of the Lord, because the majesty of the Lord had filled the temple of the Lord.
3 Moreover all the children of Israel saw the fire coming down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house: and falling down with their faces to the ground, upon the stone pavement, they adored and praised the Lord: because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.
4 And the king and all the people sacrificed victims before the Lord.
5 And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand oxen, and one hundred and twenty thousand rams: and the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. When the Temple was dedicated the people sang praise;
* And sweet in their mouths was the sound.
℣. The Lord's house is established in the top of the mountains; and all nations shall flow unto it.
℟. And sweet in their mouths was the sound.

6 Sacerdótes autem stábant in offíciis suis, et Levítæ in organis cárminum Dómini, quæ fecit David rex ad laudándum Dóminum: Quóniam in ætérnum misericórdia ejus; hymnos David canéntes per manus suas: porro sacerdótes canébant tubis ante eos, cunctúsque Israël stábat.
7 Sanctificávit quoque Sálomon médium átrii ante templum Dómini: obtúlerat enim ibi holocáusta, et ádipes pacificórum: quia altáre ǽneum, quod fécerat, non póterat sustinére holocáusta et sacrifícia et ádipes.
8 Fecit ergo Sálomon solemnitátem in témpore illo septem diébus, et omnis Israël cum eo, ecclésia magna valde ab intróitu Emath usque ad Torréntem Ægýpti.
9 Fecítque die octávo colléctam, eo quod dedicásset altáre septem diébus, et solemnitátem celebrásset diébus septem.

2 Chr 7:6-9
6 And the priests stood in their offices: and the Levites with the instruments of music of the Lord, which king David made to praise the Lord: because his mercy endureth for ever, singing the hymns of David by their ministry: and the priests sounded with trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.
7 Solomon also sanctified the middle of the court before the temple of the Lord: for he offered there the holocausts, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar, which he had made, could not hold the holocausts and the sacrifices and the fat:
8 And Solomon kept the solemnity at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Emath to the torrent of Egypt.
9 And he made on the eighth day a solemn assembly, because he had kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and had celebrated the solemnity seven days.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. The Lord's house is established in the top of the mountains, and exalted above the hills;

13 Si cláusero cælum, et plúvia non flúxerit, et mandávero et præcépero locústæ, ut dévoret terram, et mísero pestiléntiam in pópulum meum:

12 And the Lord appeared to him by night, and said: I have heard thy prayer, and I have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.
13 If I shut up heaven, and there fall no rain, or if I give orders, and command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people:
14 And my people, upon whom my name is called, being converted, shall make supplication to me, and seek out my face, and do penance for their most wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and will heal their land.
15 My eyes also shall be open, and my ears attentive to the prayer of him that shall pray in this place.
