Graduale – Dirigatur oratio mea

Psalm 141:2 [Latin]

Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

Dirigatur oratio mea sicut incensum in conspectu tuo, Domine. Elevatio manuum mearum sacrificium vespertinum.

Psalm 37:30, 31a, 1 [Latin]

30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.

31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.

1 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

Wisdom 3:1-3 [Latin]

1 Justorum autem animae in manu Dei sunt, et non tanget illos tormentum mortis.

Visi sunt oculis insipientium mori, et aestimata est afflictio exitus illorum,

et quod a nobis est iter exterminium; illi autem sunt in pace:


The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God,
    and no torment shall touch them.
They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead;
    and their passing away was thought an affliction
    and their going forth from us, utter destruction.
But they are in peace.


Justorum animae, from Gradualia I, no. 31 (1605), composed by William Byrd (1539/40-1623)
