  to my assistance\; O God\, make haste to help me(Ps 70:2)\,' followed by 
 the Doxology and the appropriate hymn.\n\nThen\, on Sunday at Prime\, four
  sections of Psalm 119 are said. At the other hours\, that is at Terce\, S
 ext and None\, three sections of this psalm are said. On Monday three psal
 ms are said at Prime: Psalms 1\, 2 and 6. At Prime each day thereafter unt
 il Sunday\, three psalms are said in consecutive order as far as Psalm 20.
  Psalms 9 and 18 are each divided into two sections. In this way\, Sunday 
 Vigils can always begin with Psalm 21.</i>\n\nThe psalms for Prime and the
  day hours of the psalmody—Terce\, Sext and None—are relatively ordinary. 
 They simply recite Psalms 1–20 in order. But they do it with two major emp
 hases. The first is the opening of the Office with the verse\, “O God\, co
 me to my assistance\,” the continuing reminder that even prayer is a gift 
 from God.\n\nThe second is to form a kind of drumbeat for the highlight of
  the next week\, the Vigil of Sunday that opens always with Psalm 21\, whi
 ch stands as both warning and promise. It details the underlying truth of 
 life: the monastic is to remember\, however powerless they may feel\, that
  no ruler is as powerful as God\; no ruler deserves our praise as does God
 \; no ruler really rules anyone. However powerful particular rulers may se
 em\, we know that in the end it is God who will prevail\, it is God in who
 m we must put our trust.
