PSALM OF THE DAY
Antiphon:
Let Justice descend, O heavens, like dew from above,
like gentle rain let the skies drop it down.

Isaiah 42: 10-13; 45: 8
Sing to the Lord a new song,
his praise from the end of the earth:

Let the sea and what fills it resound,
the coastlands, and those who dwell in them.

Let the steppe and its cities cry out,
the villages where Kedar dwells;

Let the inhabitants of Sela exult,
and shout from the top of the mountains.

Let them give glory to the Lord,
and utter his praise in the coastland.

The Lord goes forth like a hero,
like a warrior he stirs up his ardor;

He shouts out his battle cry,
against his enemies he shows his might:

Let justice descend, O heavens, like dew from above;
like gentle rain let the skies drop it down.

Let the earth open and salvation bud forth;
let justice also spring up!

I, the Lord, have created this.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
now and for ever. Amen

Antiphon:
The Lord has sworn, and he will not repent;
“You are a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchizedek.”

O Joy of the blessed,
you have given your people the ten commandments,
and in your gospel have promised happiness to those who
do your will.

holy ones who keep your commandments.
Reveal to us the joy and beauty of your treasures.
Then we shall direct our steps on the straight path
that leads to happiness,
and hasten on the way that leads to eternal joy.
We shall give thanks and praise to you,
giver of all gifts and fullness of the blessed,
now and for ever.
Amen.

EVENING PSALMS
Psalm 141:1-4
O Lord, to you I call; hasten to me;
harken to my voice when I call upon you.
Let my prayer come like incense before you;
the lifting up of my hands, like the evening sacrifice.
O Lord, set a watch before my mouth,
a guard at the door of my lips.
Let not my heart incline to the evil
of engaging in deeds of wickedness
With men who are evildoers;
and let me not partake of their dainties.
Psalm 142
With aloud voice I cry out to the Lord;
with a loud voice I beseech the Lord.
My complaint I pour out before him;
before him I lay bare my distress.
When my spirit is faint within me,
you know my path.
In the way along which I walk
they have hid a trap for me.
I look to the right to see,
but there is no one who pays me heed.
I have lost all means of escape;
there is no one who cares for my life.
I cry out to you, O Lord:
I say, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land
of the living.”
Attend to my cry,
for I am brought low indeed.
Rescue me from my persecutors,
for they are too strong for me.

Lead me forth from prison,
that I may give thanks to your name.
The just shall gather around me
when you have been good to me.
Psalm 119:105-112
A lamp to my feet is your word,
a light to my path.
I resolve and swear
to keep your just ordinances.
I am very much afflicted;
O Lord, give me life according to your word.
Accept, O Lord, the free homage of my mouth,
and teach me your decrees.
Though constantly I take my life in my hands,
yet I forget not your law.
The wicked have laid a snare for me,
but from your precepts I have not strayed.
Your decrees are my inheritance forever;
the joy of my heart they are.
I intend in my heart to fulfill you statutes
always to the letter.
Psalm 117
Praise the Lord, all you nations;
glorify him, all you peoples!
For steadfast is his mercy toward us,
and the truth of the Lord endures for ever.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and for ever. Amen.
Alleluia.

birth and held you in her arms as you hold the earth.
We offer you the praise of the apostles, who suffered;
the prophets, persecuted by a stubborn people;
the martyrs who, in the time of trial witnessed in their tortured bodies to their faith in you.

We poor sinners, filled with repentance, lift our eyes to you, that your merciful goodness may have pity on us on the day of
your glorious manifestation,
and show us compassion on the day of judgment, when no being
will appear holy in your presence.
Lord, in your mercy remember all those who have died,
marked with the sign of baptism,
nourished by your body and redeeming blood, pledges of
eternal life.
With them, may we give you glory and thanksgiving,
now and for ever.
Amen.

within us,
and of our gratitude, praise and adoration,
now and for ever.
Amen.
READINGS
MAZMOORO
Blessed be Christ!
It is he who opens the door to the contrite of heart;
they received their wages from their judge, and because

companions of the saints in heaven.
The prophets came at the third hour,
the apostles at the sixth,
the martyrs at the ninth,
and the evildoer appears at the eleventh;
yet he becomes a companion of the saints in heaven.
Repent and do penance, sinners, while there is still time.
On the day of judgment, you will enter with the just into the
paradise of light.
SCRIPTURE READINGS
A Reading from the Prophet Isaiah
Isaiah 45: 17-25
Israel, you are saved by the LORD, saved forever! You shall never be put to shame or disgrace in future ages.” For thus says the LORD, The creator of the heavens, who is God, The designer and maker of the earth who established it, Not creating it to be a waste, but designing it to be lived in: I am the LORD, and there is no other. I have not spoken from hiding nor from some dark place of the earth, And I have not said to the descendants of Jacob, “Look for me in an empty waste.” I, the LORD, promise justice, I foretell what is right. Come and assemble, gather together, you fugitives from among the gentiles! They are without knowledge who bear wooden idols and pray to gods that cannot save. Come here and declare in counsel together: Who announced this from the beginning and foretold it from of old? Was it not I, the LORD, besides whom there is no other God? There is no just and saving God but me. Turn to me and be safe, all you ends of the earth, for I am God; there is no other! By myself I swear, uttering my just decree and my unalterable word: To me every knee shall bend; by me every tongue shall swear, 2 Saying,
“Only in the LORD are just deeds and power. Before him in shame shall come all who vent their anger against him. In the LORD shall be the vindication and the glory of all the descendants of Israel.”

SUPPLICATION
O Lord of night and Master of all time,
hear our supplications and have mercy on us.
You have reconciled heaven and earth, grant peace to your Church, and keep her children in the light of the cross.

stand that the world passes, for it comes to an end, and
whatever light it possessed vanishes.
Praise to you, because the splendor of your work endures beyond all understanding. To you be glory for your works, your
marvels and your judgement.`
