S. Joachim Confessoris, Patris B. M. V.

Dispérsit, dedit paupéribus: justítia ejus manet in sǽculum sǽculi: cornu ejus exaltábitur in glória. Beátus vir, qui timet Dóminum: in mandátis ejus cupit nimis. Dispérsit, dedit paupéribus: justítia ejus manet in sǽculum sǽculi: cornu ejus exaltábitur in glória.

Lavishly he gives to the poor, his generosity shall endure forever; his horn shall be exalted in glory. Happy the man who fears the Lord, who greatly delight in His commands. Lavishly he gives to the poor, his generosity shall endure forever; his horn shall be exalted in glory.

Deus, qui præ ómnibus Sanctis tuis beátum Jóachim Genetrícis Fílii tui patrem esse voluísti: concéde, quǽsumus; ut, cujus festa venerámur, ejus quoque perpétuo patrocínia sentiámus.

O God, Who, in preference to Your other Saints, willed St. Joachim to be the father of Your Son’s Mother; grant, we beseech You, that we may ever enjoy the spiritual help of him whose feast we celebrate.

Dispérsit, dedit paupéribus: justítia ejus manet in sǽculum sǽculi. ℣. Potens in terra erit semen ejus: generátio rectórum benedicétur. Allelúja, allelúja. ℣. O Jóachim, sanctæ conjux Annæ, pater almæ Vírginis, hic fámulis ferto salútis opem. Allelúja.

Lavishly he gives to the poor; his generosity shall endure forever. V. His posterity shall be mighty upon the earth; the upright generation shall be blessed. Alleluia, alleluia. V. O Joachim, spouse of St. Anne, father of the kindly Virgin, help your servants to save their souls. Alleluia.

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ Ab inítio et ante sǽcula creáta sum, et usque ad futúrum sǽculum non désinam, et in habitatióne sancta coram ipso ministrávi. Et sic in Sion firmáta sum, et in civitáte sanctificáta simíliter requiévi, et in Jerúsalem potéstas mea. Et radicávi in pópulo honorificáto, et in parte Dei mei heréditas illíus, et in plenitúdine sanctórum deténtio mea.
