Latin.png Latin text

Emendemus in melius
quae ignoranter peccavimus;
ne subito praeoccupati die mortis,
quaeramus spatium poenitentiae, et invenire non possimus.
Attende, Domine, et miserere; quia peccavimus tibi.
Adjuva nos, Deus salutaris noster,
et propter honorem nominis tui libera nos.
Peccavimus cum patribus nostris;
injuste egimus, iniquitatem fecimus.
Attende Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus tibi.
(Ps. 78:9; 105:6; Matins Responsory, First Sunday of Lent; cf. Esther 13, Joel 2)
 

English.png English translation

Let us amend for the better in those things
in which we have sinned through ignorance;
lest suddenly overtaken by the day of death,
we seek space for repentance, and be not able to find it.
Hearken, O Lord, and have mercy: for we have sinned against thee.
Help us, O God of our salvation,
and for the honor of thy name deliver us.
We have sinned with our fathers;
we have acted unjustly, we have wrought iniquity.
Hearken, O Lord, and have mercy: for we have sinned against thee.
Translation by St Ann choir
