Acts 1:11  Viri Galilaei, quid statis [admiramini] aspicientes in coelum?
Hic Jesus, qui assumptus est a vobis in coelum,
sic veniet quemadmodum vidistis eum euntem in coelum. Alleluia.


Psalm 46:1  Omnes gentes plaudite manibus: jubilate Deo in voce exultationis.

Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto:
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.

Acts 1:11  Ye men of Galilee, why stand [wonder] ye gazing up into heaven?
This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven,
shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. Alleluia.


Psalm 47:1  O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
