    Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui hodiérna die carnis edúctum ergástulo sanctíssimum Confessórem tuum Benedíctum sublevásti ad cælum: † concéde, quǽsumus, hæc festa tuis fámulis celebrántibus cunctórum véniam delictórum; * ut, qui exsultántibus ánimis ejus claritáti congáudent, ipso apud te interveniénte, consociéntur et méritis.
    Per Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum, Fílium tuum: qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.
    R. Amen.

    Let us pray.
    Almighty and everlasting God, who on this day didst raise up to heaven thy most holy Confessor Benedict, delivered from the prison-house of the flesh: grant, we beseech thee, unto thy servants keeping this feast, forgiveness of all their sins; that they who with exultant souls rejoice in his glory may, through his intercession with thee, be joined also to his merits.
    Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
    R. Amen.
