R (see 2b) In you, my God, I place my trust.
You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,
Say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.” R
Because he clings to me, I will deliver him;
I will set him on high because he acknowledges
my name.
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in distress. R
I will deliver him and glorify him;
with length of days I will gratify him
and will show him my salvation. R
Alleluia, alleluia. Jesus Christ, you are the faithful witness,/ the firstborn of the dead;/ you have loved us and freed us from our sins by your Blood. Alleluia, alleluia.
- They seized the beloved son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. l
