Psalmody

Psalm 119See My Humiliation (Coph)

Ant. Create a clean heart in me, O God.

Behold my humiliation and rescue me, for I have not forgotten your law.

Judge my judgment and redeem me; enliven me for the sake of your word.

Salvation is far from sinners, because they have not sought your justifications.

Your mercies are many, O Lord; enliven me according to your judgment.

Many are those who persecute me and who afflict me; I have not declined from your testimonies.

I saw the prevaricators and I pined away, because they have not kept your word.

See how I have loved your commandments; O Lord, enliven me in your mercy.

The beginning of your words is truth; all the judgments of your justice are forever.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

Ant. Create a clean heart in me, O God.

Psalm 119Princes Have Persecuted Me (Res)

Ant. Create a clean heart in me, O God.

Leaders have persecuted me without cause; and my heart has been in awe of your words.

I will rejoice over your words, like one who has found great spoils.

I have hated and abhorred iniquity; but I have loved your law.

Seven times a day I have given praise to you, on the judgments of your justice.

Much peace is for those who love your law, and there is no scandal for them.

I waited for your salvation, O Lord, and I loved your commandments.

My soul has kept your testimonies, and I have loved them greatly.

I have kept your commandments and your testimonies, for all my ways are in your sight.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

Ant. Create a clean heart in me, O God.
