General Information

Eighth of the nine responsories for Matins of Maundy Thursday.

A responsory is a sung response to a Scripture reading. It has two parts: a respond and a versicle. After the versicle (indicated below by V. and usually sung by a single voice or a smaller group), the second part of the respond (indicated below by a bullet) is repeated.

Original text

Latin.png Latin text Una hora non potuistis vigilare mecum, qui exhortabamini mori pro me?

Vel Judam non videtis quomodo non dormit, sed festinat tradere me Judaeis?

V. Quid dormitis? Surgite et orate, ne intretis in tentationem.

Vel Judam non videtis quomodo non dormit, sed festinat tradere me Judaeis?

Translations

V. Why do you sleep? Arise and pray, lest ye fall into temptation.

Or do you not see Judas, how he sleeps not, but makes haste to betray me to the Jews?
