Ant. 1 From the rising of the sun to its setting, may the name of the Lord be praised.
Psalm 113
Praise the name of the Lord
He has cast down the mighty and has lifted up the lowly (Luke 1:52).
Praise, O servants of the Lord,
praise the name of the Lord!
May the name of the Lord be blessed
both now and for evermore!
From the rising of the sun to its setting
praised be the name of the Lord!
Ant. From the rising of the sun to its setting, may the name of the Lord be praised.
High above all nations is the Lord,
above the heavens his glory.
Who is like the Lord, our God,
who has risen on high to his throne
yet stoops from the heights to look down,
to look down upon heaven and earth?
Ant. From the rising of the sun to its setting, may the name of the Lord be praised.
From the dust he lifts up the lowly,
from his misery he raises the poor
to set him in the company of princes,
yes, with the princes of his people.
To the childless wife he gives a home
and gladdens her heart with children.
Ant. From the rising of the sun to its setting, may the name of the Lord be praised.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
— as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.

Ant. From the rising of the sun to its setting, may the name of the Lord be praised.
Ant. 2 I shall take into my hand the saving chalice and invoke the name of the Lord.
Psalm 116
Thanksgiving in the Temple
Through Christ let us offer God a continual sacrifice of praise (Hebrews 13:15).
I trusted, even when I said:
“I am sorely afflicted,”
and when I said in my alarm:
“No man can be trusted.”
Ant. I shall take into my hand the saving chalice and invoke the name of the Lord.
How can I repay the Lord
for his goodness to me?
The cup of salvation I will raise;
I will call on the Lord’s name.
Ant. I shall take into my hand the saving chalice and invoke the name of the Lord.
My vows to the Lord I will fulfill
before all his people.
O precious in the eyes of the Lord
is the death of his faithful.
Ant. I shall take into my hand the saving chalice and invoke the name of the Lord.
Your servant, Lord, your servant am I;
you have loosened my bonds.
A thanksgiving sacrifice I make:
I will call on the Lord’s name.
Ant. I shall take into my hand the saving chalice and invoke the name of the Lord.
My vows to the Lord I will fulfill
before all his people,
in the courts of the house of the Lord,
in your midst, O Jerusalem.
Ant. I shall take into my hand the saving chalice and invoke the name of the Lord.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
— as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
