mea: † ululate pastores in cinere et cilicio: * Quia venit dies Domini magna,
et amara valde.
V. Accingite vos sacerdotes,
et plangite ministri altaris, † aspergite vos cinere.
R. Quia venit dies Domini
magna, et amara valde.

R. O my people! Lament, like a virgin girded
with sack-cloth for the husband of her youth, howl, ye shepherds, in
sack-cloth and ashes * For the day of the Lord is at hand, and it is great
and very terrible.
V. Gird yourselves, ye Priests, and howl, ye
ministers of the altar: cast up ashes upon you.
R. For the day of the Lord is at hand, and it is
great and very terrible.
R. O my people! Lament, like a virgin, (girded
with sack-cloth for the husband of her youth,) howl, ye shepherds, in
sack-cloth and ashes * For the day of the Lord is at hand, and it is great
and very terrible.
