DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona ad Magnificat

Feria III post Dominicam I Adventus - Vespers Magnificat

"Quaerite Dominum, dum inveniri potest" (Seek the Lord while He may be found) from Isaias 55:6 structures Advent as a season of accessibility. The command to call upon the near Lord makes Advent prayer urgent. Evening's approach intensifies the call to seek.

LATINE
Quaerite Dominum, dum inveniri potest: invocate eum, dum prope est, alleluja.
ENGLISH
Seek ye the Lord, while he may be found: call upon him, while he is near, alleluia.
