THE WRITINGS OF ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI My soul and they did not set Thee forth in their own sight (Ps 85:14). I have been reckoned with those (who are) descending into the lake + I have been made free as a man without assistance among the dead (Ps 87,5-6a). Thou art My Most Holy Father + My King and My God (cf. Ps 43:5a). Stretch to My assistance + Lord God of My salvation (Ps 37:23). At Prime Antiphon: Holy Virgin Mary Psalm III Have mercy on Me, God, have mercy on Me + since in Thee does My soul trust (Ps 56:2). And in the shadow of Thy wings shall I hope + until iniquity passes over (Ps 56:2a). I shall shout to My Most Holy Father the Most High + Lord (Rom. Ps.), who does good to Me (cf. Ps (56:3) He sent from Heaven and He freed Me + and He gave up to opprobrium those trampling upon Me (Ps 56:4a-b). God sent His mercy and His truth + He rescued My soul (Ps 56:4c-5a - Rom. Ps.) from My strongest enemies and from those, who hate Me, who had been comforted on My account (Ps 17:18). A snare they have prepared for My feet + and they have bent My soul over (Ps 56:7a-b). They dug before My face a ditch + and they fell into it (Ps 57:7c-d). My heart has been prepared, God, My heart has been prepared + I will sing and speak a psalm (Ps 56:8). Rise up, My Glory, rise up psaltery and kitara + I will rise up at the dawn (Ps 56:10). I will confess Thee among the peoples, Lord + and I will speak a psalm to Thee among the nations (Ps 56:10). Since magnified unto the heavens is Thy mercy + and unto the clouds Thy truth (Ps 56:11). Be exalted above the heavens, God + and above every land Thy glory (Ps 56:12). Note, that the abovesaid psalm is always said at Prime. At Terce Antiphon: Holy Virgin Mary Psalm IV Have mercy on Me, God, since man has trampled upon Me + attacking all the day, he has Testament used this term to distinguish the society of the wicked from the Church (ekklesia: Greek for "assembly" convoked by lawful authority) of the just.

THE WRITINGS OF ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI oppressed Me (Ps 55:2) They have trampled upon Me, My enemies, all the day + since many (were) warring against Me (Ps 55:2). All My enemies against Me were thinking evil things for Me + a iniquitous word did they established against Me (Ps 40:8b-9c - cf. Rom. Ps). Those who were guarding My soul + took counsel together (Ps 70:10b). They used to go outside + and they were speaking (Ps 40:7 - Rom. Ps.) for that very purpose (Ps. 40:8 - Gal. Ps.). All seeing Me derided Me + they spoke with lips and moved (their) head (Ps 21:8). However I am a worm and no man + the reproach of men and the outcast of the people (Ps 21:7). Above all My enemies I have been made a strong reproach to My neighbors + and (an object of) fear to My acquaintances (Ps 30:12a-b). Holy Father (Jn 17:11) do not distance Thy help from Me + look thoroughly to My defense (Ps 21:20). Stretch to My assistance + Lord God of My salvation (Ps 37:23). At Sext Antiphon: Holy Virgin Mary Psalm V With My voice I shouted to the Lord + with My voice I have beseeched the Lord (Ps 141:2). I pour out in Thy sight My pleading + and My tribulation I pronounce before Him (Ps 141:3). Poised to desert 238 Me (is) My spirit + and Thou knew My path (Ps 141:4a-b). In this way in which I used to walk + the proud hid a snare for Me (Ps 141:4c-d - cf. Rom. Ps.) I was surveying the right and looking + and there was none who knew Me (Ps 141:5a-b). Flight perished from Me + and there is none who looks after My soul (Ps 141:5c-d). Since for Thy sake I have endured reproach + confusion covers My face (Ps 68:8). A stranger have I been made to My brothers + and a pilgrim to My mother's sons (Ps 68:9). Holy Father (Jn 17:11), zeal for Thy house consumes Me and the reproaches of those upbraiding Thee have fallen upon Me (Ps 68:10). And against Me they have been glad and have come together + gathered together over Me are whips and I did not know it (Ps 34:15). They have been multiplied more than the hairs of My head + those who hate Me without cause (Ps 68:5a-b). They have been comforted, who persecuted Me, My enemies, unjustly + those whom I did not plunder I then unbound (Ps 68:5c-d). Iniquitous witnesses rising (up) + who did not know (Me), were interrogating Me (Ps 34:11). They were paying Me back evil things for good (Ps 34:12a) and they were disparaging Me + since I was pursuing goodness (Ps 37:21). Thou art My Most Holy Father + My King and My God (Ps 43:5). Stretch to My assistance + Lord God of My salvation (Ps 37:23). 238 lit. in deficiendo ex Me, or more exactly "in the act of being about to desert from Me." Page - 63
