DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona (Paschaltide)

From Ps. 118. Used at Terce throughout Paschaltide.

The Terce antiphon for Paschaltide, drawn from Psalm 118. At Terce, the third hour, the Church commemorates both the descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost (Acts 2:15) and Christ's condemnation before Pilate. During Eastertide, the Alleluia-framed antiphon transforms this hour of judgment into a proclamation of the Risen Lord's vindication.

LATINE
Alleluia, deduc me, Domine, in semitam mandatorum tuorum, alleluia, alleluia.
ENGLISH
Alleluia, lead me, O Lord, into the path of thy commandments, alleluia, alleluia.
