Veni, veni, Emmanuel 12th century 1. veni, veni, Emmanuel; captivum solve Israel qui gemit in exilio privatus Dei Filio. gaude, gaude; Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. 2. veni, O Jesse Virgula, ex hostis tuos ungula, de specu tuos tartari educ et antro barathri. gaude, gaude; Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. 3. veni, veni, O Oriens; solare nos adveniens; noctis depelle nebulas dirasque noctis tenebras. gaude, gaude; Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. 4. veni, Clavis Davidica; regna reclude caelica; fac iter tutum superum, et claude vias inferum. gaude, gaude, Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. 5. veni, veni, Adonai, qui populo in Sinai legem dedisti vertice in maiestate gloriae.
Come, Come, Emmanuel (12th century). 1. Come, come, Emmanuel; ransom captive Israel, that mourns in lonely exile, deprived of the Son of God. Rejoice, rejoice; Emmanuel shall be born for you, O Israel. 2. Come, O Rod of Jesse's stem; from the enemy's talon, from the cave of hell's depths and the pit of the abyss lead forth your own. Rejoice, rejoice; Emmanuel shall be born for you, O Israel. 3. Come, come, O Dayspring; comfort us by your coming; drive away the mists of night and the dread shadows of night. Rejoice, rejoice; Emmanuel shall be born for you, O Israel. 4. Come, Key of David; unlock the heavenly realms; make safe the way on high, and close the paths of the regions below. Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel shall be born for you, O Israel. 5. Come, come, Adonai, who upon Sinai's summit gave the law to your people in the majesty of glory.
《以馬內利來臨歌》(十二世紀)。1. 來吧,來吧,以馬內利;救贖被擄的以色列,他在孤寂的流亡中哀哭,被剝奪了神的兒子。歡欣,歡欣;以馬內利必為你而生,以色列啊。2. 來吧,耶西的嫩枝;從仇敵的爪牙中,從陰間的深穴、從深淵的坑中,領出屬你的人。歡欣,歡欣;以馬內利必為你而生,以色列啊。3. 來吧,來吧,東方的日出;以你的降臨安慰我們;驅散黑夜的迷霧與夜間可怕的幽暗。歡欣,歡欣;以馬內利必為你而生,以色列啊。4. 來吧,大衛的鑰匙;開啟那屬天的諸國;使通往高處的道路安穩,並關閉那下界的路徑。歡欣,歡欣,以馬內利必為你而生,以色列啊。5. 來吧,來吧,主宰(阿多乃),你在西乃山巔,在榮耀的威嚴中,將律法賜給你的子民。
1:2
gaude, gaude, Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. Puer nobis nascitur Trier, 15th century 1. puer nobis nascitur rector angelorum; in hoc mundo pascitur Dominus dominorum. 2. in praesepe ponitur sub foeno asinorum. cognoverunt Dominum Christum regem coelorum. 3. hinc Herodes timuit - magna cum dolore, et pueros occidit, infantes cum livore. 4. qui natus de virgine - die hodierna ducat nos cum gratia ad gaudia superna. 5. O et A et A et O cum cantibus in choro, cum canticis et organo, benedicamus Domino. Corde natus ex parentis Aurelius Clemens Prudentius, 4th century 1.
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel shall be born for you, O Israel. A Child Is Born to Us (Trier, 15th century). 1. A child is born to us, the ruler of the angels; in this world is nourished the Lord of lords. 2. He is laid in a manger beneath the hay of the asses. They knew the Lord Christ, the King of the heavens. 3. Hence Herod feared—with great grief—and slew the boys, the infants, in his spite. 4. May he who was born of a virgin on this present day lead us with grace to the joys on high. 5. O and A, and A and O, with songs in the choir, with canticles and organ, let us bless the Lord. Of the Father's Heart Begotten (Aurelius Clemens Prudentius, 4th century). 1.
歡欣,歡欣,以馬內利必為你而生,以色列啊。《有一嬰孩為我們而生》(特里爾,十五世紀)。1. 有一嬰孩為我們而生,就是眾天使的統治者;萬主之主在這世上得著養育。2. 他被放在驢槽乾草之下。他們認出主基督,諸天的君王。3. 於是希律懼怕——滿懷悲痛——出於嫉恨殺了眾男孩、眾嬰孩。4. 願那在今日由童女所生的,以恩典引領我們達到天上的喜樂。5. 噢與阿,阿與噢,以詩班的歌唱,以頌歌與管樂,讓我們頌讚主。《道成肉身自父懷》(奧勒留·克雷門斯·普魯登修斯,四世紀)。1.
1:3
corde natus ex parentis ante mundi exordium A et O cognominatus, ipse fons et clausula omnium quae sunt, fuerunt, quaeque post futura sunt. 2. ipse iussit et creata, dixit ipse et facta sunt, terra, caelum, fossa ponti, trina rerum machina, quaeque in his vigent sub alto solis et lunae globo. 3. corporis formam caduci, membra morti obnoxia induit, ne gens periret primoplasti ex germine, merserat quem lex profundo noxialis tartaro. 4. O beatus ortus ille, virgo cum puerpera edidit nostram salutem, feta Sancto Spiritu, et puer redemptor orbis os sacratum protulit. 5.
Begotten of the Father's heart before the beginning of the world, surnamed Alpha and Omega, he himself the source and end of all things that are, that have been, and that hereafter shall be. 2. He himself commanded, and they were created; he himself spoke, and they were made—earth, heaven, the deep of the sea, the threefold frame of things, and whatever flourishes within them beneath the lofty orb of sun and moon. 3. He put on the form of a perishable body, limbs subject to death, lest the race should perish from the seed of the first-formed man, whom the law of guilt had plunged into the deep of hell. 4. O blessed birth, when the virgin in childbearing brought forth our salvation, made fruitful by the Holy Spirit, and the boy, Redeemer of the world, uttered his sacred countenance. 5.
在世界肇始之前,他生於父的心懷,得名為阿拉法與俄梅戛,他自己就是萬有的源頭與終結——凡今在的、昔在的、並此後將有的一切。2. 他自己命定,萬物便被造;他自己說話,萬物便成就——地、天、深海、萬物三重的構架,以及在日月高高的天體之下凡在其中興旺的一切。3. 他披上了必朽身體的形狀,肢體服在死亡之下,免得人類從那受造之初之人的種裏滅亡——那人已被罪愆的律投入陰間的深處。4. 噢,那有福的誕生,當童女在生產中誕下我們的救恩,因聖靈而懷孕得實,那世界的救贖者,孩童顯出他神聖的面容。5.
1:4
psallat altitudo caeli, psallite omnes angeli, quidquid est virtutis usquam psallat in laudem Dei, nulla linguarum silescat, vox et omnis consonet. 6. ecce, quem vates vetustis concinebant saeculis, quem prophetarum fideles paginae spoponderant, emicat promissus olim; cuncta conlaudent eum. 7. macte iudex mortuorum, macte rex viventium, dexter in Parentis arce qui cluis virtutibus, omnium venturus inde iustus ultor criminum. 8. te senes et te iuventus, parvulorum te chorus, turba matrum, virginumque, simplices puellulae, voce concordes pudicis perstrepant concentibus. 9.
Let the height of heaven sing, sing all you angels, whatever power exists anywhere, let it sing in praise of God; let none of the tongues fall silent, and let every voice sound together. 6. Behold, he whom the seers of ancient ages sang of, whom the faithful pages of the prophets pledged, shines forth, the long-promised one; let all things praise him together. 7. Hail, Judge of the dead, hail, King of the living, who at the right hand in the citadel of the Father art renowned for thy powers, who shalt come thence as the just avenger of all crimes. 8. Let old men and youth, let the choir of little ones, the throng of mothers and of virgins, the simple maidens, in harmony of voice resound with chaste accord. 9.
願諸天的至高處歌唱,眾天使啊,你們都歌唱;凡各處所有的能力,都當歌唱讚美神;願諸般言語無一靜默,願每一聲音一同響應。6. 看哪,古昔先見者所歌頌的、先知忠信書卷所應許的那位,如今照耀顯現,就是那久已應許的;願萬有一同讚美他。7. 萬歲,死人的審判者;萬歲,活人的君王;你在父的堡壘右邊,以你的大能著稱;你必從那裏前來,作審判一切罪行的公義報應者。8. 願老年人與青年人,願孩童的詩班、眾母親與童女的群眾、純樸的少女,以和諧的聲音,以貞潔的合唱齊聲歌唱。9.
1:5
tibi, Christe, sit cum Patre hagioque Pneumate hymnus, decus, laus perennis, gratiarum actio, honor, virtus, victoria, regnum aeternaliter. Quem pastores laudavere 14th century 1. Quem pastores laudavere, quibus angeli dixere, absit vobis iam timere, natus est rex gloriae. 2. ad quem magi ambulabant, aurum, thus, myrrham portabant, immolabant haec sincere nato regi gloriae. 3. Christo regi, Deo nato, per Mariam nobis dato, merito resonet vere laus, honor et gloria. Angelus ad virginem in the Dublin Troper ca. 1360; mentioned by Chaucer in the Milleres Tale 1. Angelus ad virginem subintrans in conclave, virginis formidinem demulcens, inquit, 'Ave! Ave, regina virginum;
To you, O Christ, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, be the hymn, the glory, perpetual praise, the giving of thanks, honor, power, victory, and dominion eternally. Whom Shepherds Praised (14th century). 1. Whom shepherds praised, to whom the angels said, 'Be afraid no longer; the King of glory is born.' 2. To whom the magi walked, bearing gold, frankincense, and myrrh, and offered these sincerely to the King of glory born. 3. To Christ the King, to God born, given to us through Mary, let praise, honor, and glory truly resound, as is fitting. The Angel to the Virgin (in the Dublin Troper, ca. 1360; mentioned by Chaucer in the Miller's Tale). 1. The angel, entering into the chamber of the virgin, soothing the virgin's dread, said, 'Hail! Hail, queen of virgins;
基督啊,願頌歌、榮耀、永遠的讚美、感恩、尊貴、能力、得勝與國度,永永遠遠歸與你,並歸與父和聖靈。《牧人所讚美的》(十四世紀)。1. 牧人所讚美的、天使對他們所說「你們不要再懼怕,榮耀的君王已經誕生」的那位。2. 博士向他走來,帶著黃金、乳香與沒藥,誠心將這些獻給那誕生的榮耀君王。3. 願讚美、尊貴與榮耀,按理真實地響徹歸與基督君王、誕生的神、藉馬利亞賜給我們的那位。《天使向童女》(載於都柏林《聖詠集》,約1360年;喬叟在《磨坊主的故事》中曾提及)。1. 天使進入童女的內室,撫慰童女的驚惶,說:「萬福!萬福,眾童女的女王;
1:6
coeli terraeque Dominum concipies et paries intacta salutem hominem; tu porta coeli facta, medula criminum.' 2. 'quomodo conciperem quae virum non cognovi? qualiter infringerem quod firma mente vovi?' 'Spiritus Sancti gratia perficiet haec omnia; ne timeas, sed gaudeas, secura quod castimonia manebit in te pura Dei potentia.' 3. ad haec virgo nobilis respondens inquit ei: 'Ancilla sum humilis omnipotentis Dei. tibi coelesti nuntio, tanti secreti conscio, consentiens, et cupiens videre factum quod audio; parata sum parere, Dei consilio.' 4. eia mater Domini, quae pacem reddidisti angelis et homini, cum Christum genuisti; tuum exora filium ut se nobis propitium exhibeat, et deleat peccata:
you shall conceive and bear, untouched, the Lord of heaven and earth, salvation, a man; you who are made the gate of heaven, the marrow that heals sins.' 2. 'How should I conceive, I who have not known a man? How should I break what I have vowed with a firm mind?' 'The grace of the Holy Spirit shall accomplish all these things; do not fear, but rejoice, secure that your chastity shall remain pure within you—the power of God.' 3. To this the noble virgin, answering, said to him: 'I am the humble handmaid of the Almighty God. To you, the heavenly messenger, privy to so great a secret, I consent, and desiring to see done what I hear; I am ready to obey the counsel of God.' 4. O Mother of the Lord, who restored peace to the angels and to mankind when you bore Christ; entreat your Son to show himself favorable to us, and to blot out sins:
你必懷孕,仍存純全,生下天地之主,就是救恩,一位人;你被立為天國之門,是醫治眾罪的精髓。」2. 「我既未曾認識男子,怎能懷孕呢?我心意已堅所許的願,怎能違背呢?」「聖靈的恩典必成就這一切;不要懼怕,只要歡喜,確知你的貞潔必純全存於你裏面——這是神的大能。」3. 對此,那尊貴的童女回答他說:「我是全能神卑微的婢女。對你這知曉如此大奧祕的屬天使者,我願順從,並切願看見我所聽見的成就;我已預備好遵從神的旨意。」4. 噢,主的母親,當你誕下基督,便使天使與人類重得平安;求你懇求你的兒子向我們施恩,並塗抹眾罪:
1:7
praestans auxilium vita frui beata post hoc exsilium. Personent hodie 14th century 1. personent hodie voces puerulae, laudantes iucunde qui nobis est natus, summo Deo datus, et de virgineo ventre procreatus. 2. in mundo nascitur, pannis involvitur praesepi ponitur stabulo brutorum, rector supernorum. perdidit spolia princeps infernorum. 3. magi tres venerunt, parvulum inquirunt, parvulum inquirunt, stellulam sequendo, ipsum adorando, aurum, thus, et myrrham ei offerendo. 4. omnes clericuli, pariter pueri, cantent ut angeli: advenisti mundo, laudes tibi fundo. ideo gloria in excelsis Deo. Dormi, Jesu! Latin copied by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) from a print in a German village;
granting aid that we may enjoy a blessed life after this exile. Let Them Resound Today (14th century). 1. Let the voices of little children resound today, praising joyfully him who is born for us, given by God Most High, and brought forth from a virgin's womb. 2. He is born into the world, wrapped in swaddling clothes, laid in a manger, in the stable of the beasts, the ruler of those on high. The prince of hell lost his spoils. 3. Three magi came, they seek the little one, they seek the little one, following the little star, adoring him, offering him gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 4. Let all the young clerics and the boys alike sing as the angels: You have come into the world; I pour out praises to you. Therefore, glory to God in the highest. Sleep, Jesus! (Latin copied by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834) from a print in a German village;
賜下幫助,使我們在此流亡之後得享有福的生命。《今日齊聲響起》(十四世紀)。1. 願孩童的聲音今日齊聲響起,歡然讚美那為我們而生的,就是至高神所賜、從童女腹中所生的那位。2. 他降生到世上,用布包裹,放在馬槽裏,在牲畜的棚中,那居高位者的統治者。陰間的君王喪失了他的擄物。3. 三位博士前來,尋找那嬰孩,尋找那嬰孩,跟隨著小星,敬拜他,獻上黃金、乳香與沒藥。4. 願所有的年輕教士與男孩一同如天使般歌唱:你已來到世上;我向你傾倒讚美。故此,在至高之處榮耀歸與神。《睡吧,耶穌!》(拉丁文由塞繆爾·泰勒·柯勒律治(1772–1834)從德國一村莊的印刷品抄錄而來;
1:8

1:10
en grege relicto, humiles ad cunas vocati pastores approperant: et nos ovanti gradu festinemus: venite, adoremus Dominum 5. ergo qui natus die hodierna Jesu, tibi sit gloria: Patris aeterni verbum caro factum. venite, adoremus Dominum Gloria, laus et honor (Hymnus in die ramorum) Theodulph, bishop of Orleans, 9th century Gloria, laus et honor tibi sit, rex Christe redemptor, cui puerile decus prompsit Hosanna pium. Israel tu rex, Davidis et inclyta proles, nomine qui in Domini, rex benedicte, venis. coetus in excelsis te laudat caelicus omnis et mortalis homo, cuncta creata simul. plebs Hebraea tibi cum palmis obvia venit: cum prece, voto, hymnis adsumus ecce tibi.
Lo, leaving their flock, the lowly shepherds, called to the cradle, hasten near; and let us too with exulting step make haste: O come, let us adore the Lord. 5. Therefore, to you, Jesus, who are born on this present day, be glory; the Word of the eternal Father made flesh. O come, let us adore the Lord. Glory, Praise, and Honor (Hymn for Palm Sunday; Theodulph, bishop of Orléans, 9th century). Glory, praise, and honor be to you, O King Christ, Redeemer, to whom the company of children sang forth devout Hosanna. You are the King of Israel and the glorious offspring of David, the blessed King who comes in the name of the Lord. The whole heavenly host praises you on high, and mortal man, and all created things together. The Hebrew people came to meet you with palms: behold, we are present before you with prayer, vow, and hymns.
看哪,卑微的牧人撇下羊群,蒙召來到馬槽,急速趨前;願我們也以歡躍的腳步趕緊前往:齊來,讓我們敬拜主。5. 故此,耶穌啊,你在今日降生,願榮耀歸與你;你是永恆之父的道成了肉身。齊來,讓我們敬拜主。《榮耀、讚美與尊貴》(棕枝主日聖詩;奧爾良主教泰奧多夫,九世紀)。榮耀、讚美與尊貴歸與你,基督君王、救贖主,孩童的群眾向你唱出虔誠的「和散那」。你是以色列的君王,是大衛榮耀的後裔,是奉主名而來、蒙福的君王。諸天的全軍在高處讚美你,必死的人也讚美你,連同一切受造之物。希伯來百姓拿著棕枝前來迎接你:看哪,我們帶著禱告、誓願與詩歌,來到你面前。
1:11
hi tibi passuro solvebant munia laudis; nos tibi regnati pangimus ecce melos. hi placuere tibi; placeat devotio nostra, rex pie, rex clemens, cui bona cuncta placent. gloria, laus et honor tibi sit, rex Christe redemptor, cui puerile decus prompsit Hosanna pium. Stabat mater dolorosa (Hymnus de passione) Jacopone da Todi (1230-1306) Stabat mater dolorosa iuxta crucem lacrimosa, dum pendebat filius; cuius animam gementem, contristatam et dolentem, pertransivit gladius. o quam tristis et afflicta fuit illa benedicta mater unigeniti, quae maerebat et dolebat et tremebat, cum videbat nati poenas inclyti. quis est homo qui non fleret, Christi matrem si videret in tanto supplicio?
These paid you the tribute of praise when you were about to suffer; behold, we sing songs to you now that you reign. These pleased you; may our devotion please you also, O holy King, O merciful King, to whom all good things are pleasing. Glory, praise, and honor be to you, O King Christ, Redeemer, to whom the company of children sang forth devout Hosanna. The Sorrowful Mother Stood (Hymn on the Passion; Jacopone da Todi, 1230–1306). The sorrowful mother stood weeping beside the cross while her Son hung; whose groaning soul, saddened and grieving, a sword pierced through. O how sad and afflicted was that blessed mother of the Only-begotten, who mourned and grieved and trembled, as she beheld the pains of her glorious offspring. Who is the man who would not weep, if he saw the mother of Christ in such torment?
當你將要受苦時,這些人向你獻上讚美的貢物;看哪,如今你掌權作王,我們向你唱頌詩歌。這些人蒙你喜悅;願我們的虔誠也蒙你喜悅,聖潔的君王,仁慈的君王,凡美善的事物都蒙你喜悅。榮耀、讚美與尊貴歸與你,基督君王、救贖主,孩童的群眾向你唱出虔誠的「和散那」。《憂傷之母佇立》(受難聖詩;雅各布內·達·托迪,1230–1306)。憂傷之母佇立,在十字架旁哭泣,當她的兒子懸掛之時;她那呻吟、悲傷、哀痛的靈魂,被一把刀刺透。噢,那獨生子蒙福的母親何等憂傷悲苦,她哀慟、悲傷、戰兢,看著她榮耀兒子的痛苦。若有人看見基督的母親身處如此的酷刑,有誰能不流淚呢?
1:12
quis non posset contristari, piam matrem, contemplari dolentem cum filio? pro peccatis suae gentis vidit Iesum in tormentis et flagellis subditum: vidit suum dulcem natum morientem desolatum, dum emisit spiritum. eia mater, fons amoris, me sentire vim doloris fac ut tecum lugeam; fac ut ardeat cor meum, in amando Christum Deum ut sibi complaceam. Chorus novae Ierusalem (Hymnus in pascha) Fulbert, bishop of Chartres, d. Chorus novae Ierusalem novam meli dulcidinem promat colens cum sobriis paschale festum gaudiis, quo Christus, invictus leo, dracone surgens obruto, dum voce viva personat, a morte functos excitat. quam devorarat improbus, praedam refudit tartarus;
Who could not be saddened to contemplate the loving mother grieving with her Son? For the sins of his people she saw Jesus in torments and subjected to scourges; she saw her own sweet Son dying, forsaken, as he gave up his spirit. O Mother, fount of love, make me feel the force of sorrow, that I may mourn with you; make my heart burn in loving Christ my God, that I may be pleasing to him. Choir of the New Jerusalem (Hymn at Easter; Fulbert, bishop of Chartres, died [1028]). Let the choir of the new Jerusalem bring forth a new sweetness of song, keeping with sober joys the paschal feast, in which Christ, the unconquered Lion, rising while the dragon is crushed, while he sounds forth with living voice, raises up those who have died from death. The spoil which the wicked one had devoured, hell poured back as prey;
誰能不因默想那慈愛的母親與她兒子一同悲傷而憂愁呢?她因她百姓的罪,看見耶穌在酷刑中,服在鞭打之下;她看見自己甜美的兒子垂死、被棄,當他交出靈魂之時。噢,母親,愛的泉源,使我感受到那憂傷的力量,叫我與你同哀;使我的心在愛基督我神的事上燃燒,叫我蒙他喜悅。《新耶路撒冷的詩班》(復活節聖詩;沙特爾主教富爾貝爾,卒於[1028年])。願新耶路撒冷的詩班發出新的甘甜歌聲,以清醒的喜樂守逾越節的筵席;在其中,那不可戰勝的獅子基督,當巨龍被壓碎時復起,以活的聲音響徹,使那些死去的人從死裏復活。那惡者曾吞下的擄物,陰間如今將獵物吐還;
1:13
captivitate libera Iesum sequuntur agmina. triumphat ille splendide, et dignus amplitudine soli polique patriam unam facit rem publicam. ipsum canendo supplices regem precemur milites ut in suo clarissimo nos ordinet palatio. per saecla metae nescia Patri supremo gloria honorque sit cum Filio et Spiritu Paraclito. O quanta, qualia (Hymnus de vita aeterna) Peter Abelard (1079-1142) O quanta, qualia sunt illa sabbata quae semper celebrat superna curia. quae fessis requies, quae merces fortibus, cum erit omnia Deus in omnibus. vere Ierusalem est illa civitas, cuius pax iugis est, summa iucunditas, ubi non praevenit rem desiderium, nec desiderio minus est praemium.
freed from captivity, the throngs follow Jesus. He triumphs splendidly, and worthy of his greatness, he makes the homeland of earth and heaven one commonwealth. Singing to him, let us as suppliant soldiers entreat the King, that he may set us in order in his most glorious palace. Through ages that know no end, to the supreme Father be glory, and honor be to the Son and the Spirit, the Paraclete. O How Great, How Glorious (Hymn on Eternal Life; Peter Abelard, 1079–1142). O how great, how glorious are those sabbaths which the heavenly court forever celebrates! What rest for the weary, what reward for the strong, when God shall be all in all. Truly that city is Jerusalem, whose peace is unbroken, whose gladness is supreme, where desire does not outrun the thing desired, nor is the reward less than the desire.
得脫離擄掠,群眾跟隨耶穌。他輝煌得勝,配得他的偉大,使天地的家鄉合為一個國度。我們向他歌唱,當作懇求的兵丁懇求君王,求他在他至榮耀的宮殿裏安置我們。歸與至高之父的榮耀,直到無窮的世代,並願尊貴歸與子和那保惠師——聖靈。《噢,何等偉大,何等榮耀》(永生聖詩;彼得·亞伯拉爾,1079–1142)。噢,那屬天朝廷永遠所守的安息日,何等偉大,何等榮耀!那是疲乏者的安息,是剛強者的賞賜,那時神要在萬有之中作萬有。那城實在就是耶路撒冷,她的平安永不間斷,她的喜樂至高無上,在那裏渴望不會超過所渴望的事物,賞賜也不亞於渴望。
1:14
quis rex, quae curia, quale palatium, quae pax, quae requies, quod illud gaudium, huius participes exponant gloriam, si quantum sentiunt, possint exprimere. nostrum est interim mentem erigere et totis patriam votis appetere, et ad Ierusalem a Babylonia post longa regredi tandem exilia. illic molestiis finitis omnibus securi cantica Sion cantibimus, et iuges gratias de donis gratiae beata referet plebs tibi, Domine. illic ex sabbato succedet sabbatum, perpes laetitia sabbatizantium, nec ineffabiles cessabunt iubili, quos decantabimus et nos et angeli. perenni Domino perpes sit gloria, ex quo sunt, per quem sunt, in quo sunt omnia; ex quo sunt, Pater est; per quem sunt, Filius;
What king, what court, what palace, what peace, what rest, what is that joy—let those who partake of it set forth its glory, if, however much they feel, they could express it. Meanwhile it is ours to lift up the mind and to seek the homeland with all our prayers, and to return at last to Jerusalem from Babylon after long exiles. There, all troubles being ended, secure we shall sing the songs of Zion, and the blessed people shall render to you, O Lord, continual thanks for the gifts of grace. There from sabbath shall succeed sabbath, the perpetual gladness of those keeping sabbath, nor shall the ineffable jubilations cease, which we and the angels shall sing aloud. To the eternal Lord be perpetual glory, from whom are all things, through whom are all things, in whom are all things; from whom they are, he is the Father; through whom they are, the Son;
那是何等的君王、何等的朝廷、何等的宮殿,何等的平安、何等的安息、那是何等的喜樂——願有分於其中的人陳明其榮耀,倘若他們所感受的,他們能加以表達。然而眼下我們所當作的,是高舉心思,以一切的禱告尋求那家鄉,並從巴比倫,在漫長的流亡之後,終於返回耶路撒冷。在那裏,一切的苦難都告終了,我們必安然歌唱錫安的詩歌,蒙福的百姓必為恩典的恩賜,主啊,向你不住地獻上感謝。在那裏,安息日要接續安息日,是守安息日之人永遠的喜樂;那不可言喻的歡呼也永不止息,是我們與眾天使要高聲歌唱的。願永恆的主得著永遠的榮耀,萬有都本於他,倚靠他,歸於他;萬有本於他,他就是父;萬有倚靠他,就是子;
1:15
in quo sunt, Patris et Filii Spiritus. Dies irae (Hymnus in exequiis) Thomas of Celano, fl.1215 Dies irae, dies illa, solvet saeclum in favilla teste David cum Sibylla. quantus tremor est futurus, quando iudex est venturus, cuncta stricte discussurus. tuba mirum spargens sonum per sepulcra regionum coget omnes ante thronum. mors stupebit et natura, cum resurget creatura iudicanti responsura. liber scriptus proferetur, in quo totum continetur, unde mundus iudicetur. iudex ergo cum sedebit, quidquid latet, apparebit; nil inultum remanebit. quid sum miser tunc dicturus, quem patronum rogaturus, cum vix iustus sit securus?
in whom they are, the Spirit of the Father and the Son. Day of Wrath (Hymn at funerals; Thomas of Celano, flourished 1215). Day of wrath, that day shall dissolve the world into glowing ash, as David testifies together with the Sibyl. How great a trembling there shall be, when the Judge shall come, about to examine all things strictly! The trumpet, scattering a wondrous sound through the tombs of the regions, shall drive all before the throne. Death and nature shall be astonished, when the creature shall rise again to answer to the Judge. A written book shall be brought forth, in which all is contained, whereby the world shall be judged. When therefore the Judge shall sit, whatever lies hidden shall appear; nothing shall remain unavenged. What then shall I, wretched, say? What protector shall I entreat, when scarcely the righteous is secure?
萬有歸於他,就是父與子的靈。《震怒之日》(喪禮聖詩;切拉諾的多瑪斯,活躍於1215年)。震怒之日,那日要將世界化為灼熱的灰燼,正如大衛與女先知西比拉一同作見證。當那審判者前來,要嚴格查驗萬事之時,那要有何等大的戰兢!號筒在各地的墳墓間發出奇妙的聲音,要驅趕眾人來到寶座前。當受造之物復起,要向審判者交賬時,死亡與自然都要驚駭。一卷書要被展開,其中記載著一切,世界要照此受審判。所以當審判者坐定時,凡隱藏的都要顯露;無一罪行能逃脫報應。那時我這可憐的人要說甚麼呢?我要懇求誰作我的辯護者呢?因為連義人也幾乎難保。
1:16
rex tremendae maiestatis, qui salvandos salvas gratis, salva me, fons pietatis. recordare, Iesu pie, quod sum causa tuae viae; ne me perdas illa die. quaerens me sedisti lassus, redemisti crucem passus; tantus labor non sit cassus. iuste iudex ultionis, donum fac remissionis ante diem rationis. ingemisco tamquam reus, culpa rubet vultus meus; supplicanti parce, Deus. qui Mariam absolvisti et latronem exaudisti, mihi quoque spem dedisti. preces meae non sunt dignae; sed tu bonus fac benigne ne perenni cremer igne. inter oves locum praesta, et ab haedis me sequestra, statuens in parte dextra. confutatis maledictis, flammis acribus addictis, voca ma cum benedictis. oro supplex et acclinis:
King of dread majesty, who freely save those to be saved, save me, O fount of mercy. Remember, gentle Jesus, that I am the cause of your journey; do not destroy me on that day. Seeking me, you sat down weary; you redeemed me, having suffered the cross; let such great labor not be in vain. Just Judge of vengeance, grant the gift of remission before the day of reckoning. I groan as one guilty; my face reddens with my fault; spare your suppliant, O God. You who absolved Mary and heard the thief, have given hope to me also. My prayers are not worthy; but you who are good, graciously grant that I be not burned in everlasting fire. Grant me a place among the sheep, and separate me from the goats, setting me on the right hand. When the accursed are confounded, consigned to the bitter flames, call me with the blessed. I pray, suppliant and bowed down:
可畏威嚴的君王,你白白拯救那當得救的,求你拯救我,憐憫的泉源。仁慈的耶穌,求你記念,我是你旅程的緣由;求你不要在那日毀滅我。你為尋找我,疲乏地坐下;你受了十字架的苦楚,救贖了我;願這般大的勞苦不致徒然。施行報應的公義審判者,求你在算賬之日以先,賜下赦免的恩賜。我如有罪之人歎息;我的臉因我的過犯而泛紅;神啊,求你饒恕你的懇求者。你既赦免了馬利亞,又垂聽了那強盜,也賜了盼望給我。我的禱告不配蒙允;但你既是良善的,求你開恩眷顧,使我不致被焚於永火。求你在綿羊中賜我一席之地,將我與山羊分開,安置我在右邊。當那受咒詛的被定罪,被交付於猛烈的火焰時,求你召我與蒙福的同列。我俯伏懇求:
1:17
cor contritum quasi cinis; gere curam mei finis. lacrimosa dies illa, qua resurget ex favilla iudicandus homo reus, huic ergo parce, Deus. pie Iesu Domine, dona eis requiem. Amen.
my heart contrite as ashes; take care of my end. That day will be tearful, on which the guilty man shall rise from the glowing ash to be judged; therefore spare him, O God. Gentle Lord Jesus, grant them rest. Amen.
我的心痛悔如灰;求你顧念我的結局。那日將是流淚之日,有罪的人要從灼熱的灰燼中復起受審判;所以神啊,求你饒恕他。仁慈的主耶穌,求你賜他們安息。阿們。
