Judas non dormit! The eighth responsory of Maundy Thursday Matins (EF)



Responsorium:
Una hora non potuistis vigilare mecum,
qui exhortabamini mori pro me?
Vel Judam non videtis quomodo non dormit,
sed festinat tradere me Judaeis?

Versus:
Quid dormitis? Surgite et orate,
ne intretis in tentationem.
Vel Judam non videtis quomodo non dormit,
sed festinat tradere me Judaeis?

Responsorium:
¿No habéis podido vigilar conmigo una hora,
vosotros que decíais que moriríais por mí?
¿No habéis visto que Judas no dormía,
sino que se apresuraba a entregarme a los judíos?

Versus:
¿Por qué dormís? Levantáos y orad,
para que no caigáis en tentación.
¿No habéis visto que Judas no dormía,
sino que se apresuraba a entregarme a los judíos?
