⁣July 11 is the traditional Benedictine feast of the Transitus (moving) of the relics of St Benedict. This Antiphon is from 1st Vespers for this feast.
"O God, who didst fill Thy most blessed Confessor Benedict with the spirit of all the righteous, grant to us Thy servants who celebrate his solemnity, that filled with his spirit we may faithfully accomplish by Thine assistance that which we have promised.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, world without end. Amen."

English Translation:

May the crowd of all the faithful rejoice for the glory of the blessed loving father. let the throngs of monks be glad, especially those who celebrate the fellowship of the saints and rejoice in the heavens.

My soul doth magnify the Lord. And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. Because he that is mighty, hath done great things to me; and holy is his name. And his mercy is from generation unto generations, to them that fear him.
He hath shewed might in his arm: he hath scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart. He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath exalted the humble. He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away. He hath received Israel his servant, being mindful of his mercy: As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed for ever. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was it the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
