Our Lady of Mount Carmel

7The path of the just is upright; the difficult path of the just is right to walk in. 8And in the path of your judgments, O Lord, we have endured for you. Your name and your remembrance are the desire of the soul. 9My soul has desired you in the night. But I will also watch for you with my spirit, in my inmost heart, from the morning. When you accomplish your judgments upon the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn justice.

…

12Lord, you will give us peace. For all our works have been wrought for us by you.

16Lord, they have sought you in anguish. Your doctrine was with them, amid the tribulation of murmuring. 17Like a woman who has conceived and is approaching the time for delivery, who, in anguish, cries out in her pains, so have we become before your face, O Lord. 18We have conceived, and it is as if we were in labor, but we have given birth to wind. We have not brought forth salvation on the earth. For this reason, the inhabitants of the earth have not fallen. 19Your dead shall live. My slain will rise again. Be awakened, and give praise, you who live in the dust! For your dew is the dew of the light, and you shall be dragged down to the land of the giants, to ruination.

13But you, O Lord, endure for eternity, and your memorial is from generation to generation.

14You will rise up and take pity on Zion, for it is time for its mercy, for the time has come.

15For its stones have pleased your servants, and they will take pity on its land.

16And the Gentiles will fear your name, O Lord, and all the kings of the earth your glory.

17For the Lord has built up Zion, and he will be seen in his glory.

18He has noticed the prayer of the humble, and he has not despised their petition.

19Let these things be written in another generation, and the people who will be created will praise the Lord.

20For he has gazed from his high sanctuary. From heaven, the Lord has beheld the earth.

21So may he hear the groans of those in shackles, in order that he may release the sons of the slain.

28Come to me, all you who labor and have been burdened, and I will refresh you. 29Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you shall find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is sweet and my burden is light.”
