DOA PEMBUKAAN (ADSUMUS)

Bahasa Indonesia:

Ya Roh Kudus, kami berhimpun di hadapan-Mu.Kami sadar akan kedosaan kami, tetapi sadar pula bahwa kami berhimpun dalam nama-Mu. Datanglah ke tengah kami, tinggallah bersama kami, dan terangilah hati kami. Berilah kami cahaya dan kekuatan untuk mengenal kehendak-Mu, untuk menjadikannya kehendak kami, dan untuk mengamalkannya dalam hidup kami. Bimbinglah kami dengan kebijaksanaan-Mu, topanglah kami dengan kekuatan-Mu, karena Engkaulah Allah, yang dimuliakan bersama Bapa dan Putra.


Ya Roh Kudus, Engkau menghendaki keadilan. Bantulah kami menghargai hak orang lain; janganlah Kau izinkan kami disesatkan oleh ketidak tahuan, binasa karena ketakutan atau kesembronoan. Persatukanlah kami dengan diri-Mu dalam ikatan kasih, dan buatlah kami setia pada yang benar. Karena kami berkumpul dalam nama-Mu, semoga kami memupuk keadilan dengan kasih, sehingga semua keputusan kami berkenan kepada-Mu dan layak Kauberi pahala yang dijanjikan kepada hamba yang baik dan setia. Amin.
 

 

Bahasa Inggris:

We have come, O God the Holy Spirit, we have come before Thee, hampered indeed by our many and grievous sins, but for a special purpose gathered together in Thy name. Come to us and be with us and enter our hearts. Teach us what we are to do and where we ought to tend; show us what we must accomplish, in order that, with Thy help, we may be able to please Thee in all things. Be Thou alone the author and the finisher of our judgments, Thou who alone with God the Father and his Son dost posses a glorious name.


Do not allow us to disturb the order of justice, Thou who lovest equity above all things. Let not ignorance draw us into devious paths. Let not partiality sway our minds, nor respect of riches nor persons pervert our judgment. But unite us to Thee effectually by the gift of Thy grace alone, that we may be one in Thee and never forsake the truth; inasmuch as we are gathered together in Thy name, so may we in all things hold fast to justice tempered by mercy, so that in this life our judgment may in no wise be at variance with Thee and in the life to come we may attain everlasting rewards for deeds well done. Amen.

Bahasa Latin:

Adsumus, Domine Sancte Spiritus, adsumus peccati quidem immanitate detenti, sed in nomine tuo specialiter congregati. Veni ad nos et esto nobiscum et dignare illabi cordibus nostris; doce nos quid agamus, quo gradiamur et ostende quid efficere debeamus, ut, te auxiliante, tibi in omnibus placere valeamus. Esto solus suggestor et effector iudiciorum nostrorum, qui solus cum Deo Patre et eius Filio nomen possides gloriosum.


Non nos patiaris perturbatores esse iustitiae qui summam diligis aequitatem; non in sinistrum nos ignorantia trahat, non favor inflectat, non acceptio muneris vel personae corrumpat; sed iunge nos tibi efficaciter solius tuae gratiae dono, ut simus in te unum et in nullo deviemus a vero; quatenus in nomine tuo collecti, sic in cunctis teneamus cum moderamine pietatis iustitiam, ut et hic a te in nullo dissentiat sententia nostra et in futurum pro bene gestis consequamur praemia sempiterna.
Amen
