Antiphona ad Magnificat - Feria IV Q.T. Pentecostes

Feria IV Quatuor Temporum Pentecostes (Pentecost Ember Wednesday) - Vespers Magnificat

The Magnificat antiphon for Pentecost Ember Wednesday Vespers, expanding on Christ as the Living Bread (John 6:51). The Eucharistic theme connects with the Ember Day preparation for ordination, as priests are ordained to celebrate the mysteries of Christ's Body and Blood.

LATINE
Ego sum panis vivus, dicit Dominus, qui de caelo descendi: si quis manducaverit ex hoc pane, vivet in aeternum: et panis, quem ego dabo, caro mea est pro mundi vita, alleluja.
ENGLISH
I am the living bread, saith the Lord, which came down from heaven: If any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever; and the bread that I will give, is my flesh, for the life of the world, alleluia.
