O God, come to our aid.
O Lord, make haste to help us.

Rerum, Deus, tenax vigor,
immótus in te pérmanens,
lucis diúrnæ témpora
succéssibus detérminans,
Largíre clarum véspere,
quo vita numquam décidat,
sed præmium mortis sacræ
perénnis instet glória.
Præsta, Pater piíssime,
Patríque compar Unice,
cum Spíritu Paráclito
regnans per omne sæculum. Amen.
|
Eternal Father, loving God,
Who made us from the dust of earth,
Transform us by the Spirit’s grace,
Give value to our little worth.
Prepare us for that day of days
When Christ from heaven will come with might
To call us out of dust again,
Our bodies glorified in light.
O Godhead, here untouched, unseen,
All things created bear your trace;
The seed of glory sown in man
Will flower when we see your face.

Ps 70:14-2414Ego autem semper sperábo*
et adíciam super omnem laudem tuam.
15Os meum annuntiábit iustítiam tuam,†
tota die salutáre tuum:*

Glória Patri et Fílio*

Sicut erat in princípio et nunc et semper*

Amen.
Dixit Dóminus Saulo: Ego sum Iesus Nazarénus, quem tu perséqueris.
| Psalm 70 (71)But I will always have hope.
I will heap praise upon praise of you.
My mouth will proclaim your righteousness,
your saving power all the day long,
and your mercies, impossible to count.
I will turn to the power of the Lord
and recall only your righteousness.
God, from my youth you have taught me;
I am still proclaiming your marvels.
O God, do not abandon me,
now I have come to be old,
before I have proclaimed the strength of your arm
to every generation that is to come.
Your power, O God, and your righteousness
rise to the heights.
You have done great things,
for who, O God, is like you?
How many tribulations you have given me!
How many, and how severe!
But you have brought me to life again,
led me back up from the abyss.
You will lift me on high once again.
You will turn and console me.
I in my turn will proclaim you, my God:
on the lyre I will sing of your faithfulness,
on the harp I will praise you, O Holy One of Israel.
My lips will rejoice as I sing;
my soul will rejoice, for you have saved it.
Still I will meditate on your righteousness,
while my enemies who plotted my harm
will be ashamed and disgraced.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning,
is now, and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.
The Lord said to Saul, ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.’

Misericórdiam consecútus sum, ut in me primo osténderet Christus Iesus omnem longanimitátem, ad informatiónem eórum, qui creditúri sunt illi in vitam ætérnam.

If mercy has been shown to me, it is because Jesus Christ meant to make me the greatest evidence of his inexhaustible patience for all the other people who would later have to trust in him to come to eternal life.

℣. Glorificábo nomen tuum in ætérnum, Dómine.
℟. Quia misericórdia tua magna est super me.

℟. For your loving mercy is great towards me.

Per Christum Dóminum nostrum.
Amen.
| Let us pray.
Today, Lord, we celebrate the conversion of Saint Paul,
your chosen vessel for carrying your name to the whole world.
Help us to make our way towards you by following in his footsteps,
and by witnessing to your truth before the men and women of our day.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
