Currently antiphon to Ps 1, Office of readings for the Second Sunday of Easter/Divine Mercy Sunday (only?), though all (?) of the occurrences of this in the Cantus database are associated with the Mass. Liturgy of the hours: "I am who I am, and wicked men do not accept my ways, for the law of the Lord is my delight"; Universalis: "I am who I am, and wicked men do not understand my ways: my delight is the law of the Lord." The earliest occurrence of this antiphon in Cantus at the moment (Albi, Bibliothèque municipale Rochegude, 44 (F-Al 44), 91r.) is dated c. 890, though the image is taken from the late 10th-century Sankt Gallen, Stiftsbibliothek, 391 (CH-SGs 391), 32. A quick and dirty initial stab at potential sources (though I have not run lemma searches):
- "Ego et sum qui sum": Ex 3:14.
- "consilium meum": see also the two entries below.
- "cum impiis": Ps 25:5 ("with the wicked [(cum impiis)] I will not sit") and 9 ("with the wicked [(cum impiis)"), but more importantly Ps 1:1: "Blessed is the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly [(in consilio impiorum)]".
- "sed in lege Domini voluntas mea est": Ps 1:2: "But his will is in the law of the Lord [(sed in lege Domini voluntas ejus)]", but also Is 46:10: "My counsel shall stand [(Consilium meum stabit)]" and Lk 22:42: "but yet not my will, but thine be done [(verumtamen non mea voluntas, sed tua fiat)]."
