DIVINUM OFFICIUM Responsory

Responsorium IX - Nocturn III

First Sunday of Lent, Nocturn III, Responsory 3 - Gloria Patri omitted in Lent

This ninth responsory for the First Sunday of Lent draws from Psalm 90:11-13 (Vulgate): 'God hath given his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways; in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.' This psalm, quoted by Satan in the Temptation, is reclaimed as assurance of divine protection. In Lent, the Gloria Patri is omitted from this final responsory.

LATINE

V. Super aspidem et basiliscum ambulabis, et conculcabis leonem et draconem.
R. In manibus portabunt te, ne unquam offendas ad lapidem pedem tuum.
