Gradual (Ps. 72:24, 1-3) Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me: et cum glória assumpsísti me. Vs. Quam bonus Israël Deus rectis corde! Mei autem pæne moti sunt pedes: pæne effúsi sunt gressus mei: quia zelávi in peccatóribus, pacem peccatórum videns.
Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by Thy will Thou hast conducted me, and with Thy glory Thou hast received me. Vs. How good is God to Israel, to those of an upright heart! But my feet were almost moved, my steps had well-nigh slipped, because I was jealous of sinners, seeing the prosperity of sinners. |
