Ex Actis Pii Papæ XII

From the Acts of Pope Pius XII

Ecclésia, providentíssima ómnium Mater, máximas impéndit curas ad opífices tutándos ac levándos, eorúndem consociatiónes instítuens iísque favens, quas Pius duodécimus, Póntifex Máximus, iamprídem validíssimo sancti Ioseph patrocínio concréditas esse vóluit. Etenim sanctus Ioseph, cum putatívus esset pater Christi, qui faber et fabri fílius appellári dignátus est, propter necessitúdinem qua iunctus erat cum Iesu, abúnde spíritum illum hausit unde labor nobilitátur atque evéhitur. Consímili modo huiuscémodi opíficum consociatiónes adníti debent, ut Christus sit semper in ipsis præsens, in eórum membris horúmque famíliis, in omni dénique cœtu operário; síquidem præcípuus harum consociatiónum finis est, ut christiánam vitam in suis membris servent atque alant, Deíque regnum látius propágent, præsértim inter eiúsdem officínæ contubernáles.

The Church, most provident Mother of All, expends the greatest efforts for the protection and relief of the workers, erecting and promoting for them societies which Pius XII, the Supreme Pontiff, now wishes to be entrusted to the most powerful patronage of St. Joseph. For St. Joseph, since he was reckoned the father of Christ, who deigned to be called the son of a workman, on account of the irrevocable bond which united him to Jesus, drank abundantly of that spirit which ennobles and elevates labor. In like manner, associations of workers ought to be aware of the same kind of spirit, so that Christ may always be present in them, in their members, in their families and in fact in every labor organization, because the chief purpose of these associations is to foster and nourish the Christian life in their members, to spread the Kingdom of God more widely, especially among fellow workers in the same plant.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Non fácies calúmniam próximo tuo, nec vi ópprimes eum;

℟. You shall not calumniate your neighbor, nor oppress him by violence.

* Non morábitur opus mercenárii tui apud te usque mane, allelúia.

* The wages of him who has been hired by you shall not be withheld from him overnight, alleluia.

℣. Dignus est enim operárius mercéde sua.

℣. The laborer is worthy of his wages.

℟. Non morábitur opus mercenárii tui apud te usque mane, allelúia.

℟. The wages of him who has been hired by you shall not be withheld from him overnight, alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

De hac autem Ecclésiæ sollicitúdine erga cœtum operárium novum idem Póntifex prǽbuit arguméntum, cum occasiónem nactus opíficum convéntus caléndis maiis anni millésimi nongentésimi quinquagésimi quinti Romæ celebráti, ingéntem multitúdinem in foro ad sancti Petri Basílicam coadunátam álloquens, opíficum institutiónem summópere commendávit. Hæc enim nostris tempóribus potióres sibi víndicat partes, ut opífices, christiána doctrína rite imbúti, grassántes circa societátis constitutiónem remque œconómicam erróres devítent, et morálem órdinem a Deo præstitútum, quem Ecclésia pandit atque interpretátur, de opíficum iúribus atque offíciis, probe noscant, reíque geréndæ partícipes effécti, eiúsdem procuratióni efficáciter adlabórent. Christus enim primus in orbe promulgávit atque Ecclésiæ trádidit princípia, quæ ad has diriméndas quæstiónes immutabília ac validíssima perstant.

The same Pontiff supplied a new proof of the Church's solicitude for labor organization, when, upon the occasion of a convention of workingmen held in Rome on the first of May in the year 1955, he took the opportunity of speaking to a large multitude gathered in the square before St. Peter's Basilica, and commended most highly the instruction of workingmen. For in our day it is of prime importance that the workers be properly imbued with Christian doctrine in order that they may avoid the widespread errors concerning the nature of society and economic matters. Moreover, such instruction is needed that they might have a correct knowledge of the moral order established by God as it effects the rights and duties of workers, and which the Church discloses and interprets, so that by partaking in the needed reforms they might work more effectively toward their realization. For Christ was the first one to promulgate in the world those principles which he delivered to the Church and which still stand unchangeable and most valid for the solution of these problems.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Dedísti mihi protectiónem salútis tuæ et déxtera tua suscépit me:

℟. You have given me your saving shield, and your right hand has upheld me,

* Protéctor meus et suscéptor meus, allelúia.

* My protector and my support, alleluia.

℣. Ego protéctor tuus sum et merces tua magna nimis.

℣. I am your protector and your reward is very great.

Quo autem humáni labóris dígnitas, et princípia quæ eándem effíciunt, áltius insidérent ánimis, Pius duodécimus festum sancti Ioseph opíficis instítuit, qui omni cœ́tui operário exémplo sit ac præsídio. Ab hoc enim exémplo, qui operósas exércent artes díscere debent qua ratióne et quo spíritu sua múnia éxpleant, ut páriter primo Dei obsequéntes præcépto, terram subíciant atque œconómicæ prosperitáti cónsulant, ac simul ætérnæ vitæ prǽmia consequántur. Neque déerit próvidus Nazarethánæ Famíliæ custos sibi arte ac labóre cómpares suo munímine tégere eorundémque cǽlitus fortunáre domos. Aptíssime Summus Póntifex hoc festum celebrári iussit caléndis maiis, quem diem operárii cœtus sibi ascivérunt; hinc enim spes affúlget fore, ut dies hic, sancto Ioseph opífici dicátus, deínceps non ódia exácuat ac iúrgia accéndat, sed síngulis recúrrens annis, omnes invítet ad ea magis magísque perficiénda, quæ cívium paci adhuc desunt, immo étiam reipúblicæ moderatóres exstímulet ad ea solérter absolvénda quæ consortiónis humánæ rectus expóstulat ordo.

In order that the dignity of human labor and the principles which underlie it might penetrate more deeply into souls, Pius XII has instituted the feast of St. Joseph the Workman, as an example and a protection for all associations of workers. For from this example, those who follow the worker's calling ought to learn how and in what spirit they should discharge their duties, so that, obeying the first law of God, they might likewise subdue the earth and attain to economic prosperity, and at the same time reap the rewards of eternal life. Nor will the prudent guardian of the Family of Nazareth fail to shield with his protection, and from heaven bless the homes of those who, like him, are artisans and workmen. Most aptly has the Supreme Pontiff ordered this feast to be celebrated on the first of May, a day which the workers have adopted as their own; from henceforth let it be hoped that this day, dedicated to St. Joseph the Workman, will, as time goes on, not sharpen hatred and inflame strife, but with each recurring year, invite everyone to strive more and more for those things which are still lacking to civil peace, and indeed that it may stimulate the public authorities to use their abilities in effecting whatever right order demands of human fellowship.

In illo témpore: Véniens Iesus in pátriam suam, docébat eos in synagógis eórum, ita ut miraréntur et dícerent: «Unde huic sapiéntia hæc et virtútes? Nonne hic est fabri fílius?» Et réliqua.

And at that time: When Jesus had come to his own country, he began to teach them in their synagogues, so that they were astonished, and said: “How did this man come by this wisdom and these miracles? Is this not the carpenter's son?” And so on.

Homilía sancti Albérti Magni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Albert the Great, Bishop

In Evangelium Lucæ, cap. 4

On the Gospel of Luke, Ch. 4

Die sábbati intrávit in synagógam, quo omnes intentióne audiéndi convéniunt. Et ómnium in synagóga óculi erant intendéntes in eum. Hoc tamen quidam devotióne, quidam curiositáte, et quidam observántes eum fecérunt, ut cáperent eum in sermóne. Et dicébant scribæ et pharisǽi ad pópulum, qui iam fidem et devotiónem concéperat: «Nonne hic est fílius Ioseph?» Despectiónis nota est demonstrátio eius quem nomináre non sunt dignáti. Fílius Ioseph: minus hic dicit evangelísta quod tam a Matthǽo quam a Marco plénius scíverat esse pósitum: «Nonne hic est fabri fílius? Nonne hic est faber, fílius Maríæ?» Hæc ómnia despectíve dicta sunt.

On the Sabbath day he entered the synagogue, where those who came to listen had gathered. And the eyes of everyone in the synagogue were intent upon him. Some indeed with devotion, some out of curiosity, while some watched him that they might trap him in his talk. And the Scribes and Pharisees said to the people, in whom faith and devotion had already made a beginning: “Is not this the son of Joseph?” See this attitude of disparagement toward him whom they did not even deign to call by his name. “The son of Joseph,” this little the Evangelist says because he had known that both in Mark and in Matthew a fuller statement would be made: “Is not this the carpenter's son? Is he not a workman, the son of Mary?” All these things were said contemptuously.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Iesus erat incípiens quasi annórum trigínta,

Faber lignárius dícitur fuísse Ioseph, arte et usu mánuum victum quærens, et non in ótio et delíciis panem mandúcans, sicut scribæ et pharisǽi fecérunt. María étiam colo et consílio mánuum victum quærébat. Et est sensus: Hic despéctæ et paupérrimæ nativitátis, non potest esse Christus Dóminus, quem unxit Deus. Et ídeo sibi non est credéndum tam rusticáno et tam vili.

Joseph is said to have been a carpenter who earned his living by his skill and the work of his hands, and he did not eat his bread in idleness and indulgence, like the Scribes and Pharisees. Mary also worked for her living with her husband, and with competent hands. And here is the meaning of what they said about him: “This man of ignoble and poverty-stricken birth could not be Christ the Lord, whom God anointed. And thus no credence is to be given to such an uncultivated and low-born man.”

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Unde huic sapiéntia hæc et virtútes?

℟. How did this man come by this wisdom and these miracles?

* Nonne hic est fabri fílius? Allelúia.

* Is not this the carpenter's son? Alleluia.

℣. Ita dicébant in civitáte Názareth.

℣. So they spoke in the city of Nazareth.

℟. Nonne hic est fabri fílius? Allelúia.

℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

℟. Nonne hic est fabri fílius? Allelúia.

Faber tamen erat Dóminus: quia prophéta dixit de ipso: «Tu fabricátus es auróram et solem.» Símilis modus despectívus est in libro Regum, ubi Saul promóto in regnum suum dixérunt: «Quænam res áccidit fílio Cis? Num et Saul inter prophétas est?» Parva ergo locútio magnum impórtat despéctum. Dóminus autem dixit: «Amen dico vobis, quia nemo prophéta accéptus est in pátria sua.» Se autem prophétam hic dicit Dóminus. Ipse enim, cui ómnia per divinitátem nota sunt, nullam pénitus récipit inspiratiónis revelatiónem. Pátriam autem suam vocat hic stricte locum conceptiónis et nutritiónis. Suis autem convicáneis, qui invídia incitabántur ad ipsum, non fuit accéptus.

Now the Lord was a workman because the prophet said of him: “You fashioned the moon and the sun.” A similar contemptuous way of speaking is found in the Book of Kings, where they said of Saul when he became king: “What is this that has happened to the son of Cis? Is Saul also among the prophets?” This slight remark shows great disparagement. For the Lord says: “Amen I say to you, that no prophet is acceptable in his own country.” Here the Lord calls himself a prophet. For he, to whom all things are known through his divinity, receives no revelation of inspiration from outside himself. Here, however, he definitely calls the place of his birth and upbringing his own country. But he was not acceptable to his fellow townsmen who were incited against him by envy.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Sexto Nonas Maii Luna quarta Anno Dómini 2025

May 2nd 2025, the 4th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Alexandríæ natális sancti Athanásii, eiúsdem urbis Epíscopi, Confessóris et Ecclésiæ Doctóris, sanctitáte et doctrína claríssimi; in cuius persecutiónem univérsus fere Orbis coniuráverat. Ipse tamen cathólicam fidem, a témpore Constantíni usque ad Valéntem, advérsus Imperatóres ac Prǽsides et innúmeros Epíscopos Ariános strénue propugnávit; a quibus plúrimas perpéssus insídias, prófugus toto Orbe actus est, nec ullus ei tutus ad laténdum supérerat locus. Tandem, ad suam Ecclésiam revérsus, illic, post multos agónes multásque patiéntiæ corónas, quadragésimo sexto sui sacerdótii anno migrávit ad Dóminum, témpore Valentiniáni et Valéntis Imperatórum.

At Alexandria, in the year 373, holy Athanasius, Pope of that city, most illustrious for his holiness and teaching. Nearly the whole world leagued itself together to persecute him for the Catholic Faith. He fought right stoutly against Emperors, Presidents, and Arian Bishops without number, from the time of the Emperor Constantine until that of the Emperor Valens. To escape their plots he became an outcast upon the face of the wide world, and there was nowhere left where he could hide himself in safety. He returned at last to his own church, and after many contendings and many crowns of long-suffering he passed away to be ever with the Lord, in the 46th year of his priesthood, in the time of the Emperors Valentinian and Valens.

Floréntiæ item natális sancti Antoníni, ex Ordine Prædicatórum, Epíscopi et Confessóris, doctrína et sanctitáte célebris. Ipsíus autem festívitas sexto Idus mensis huius recólitur.

At Rome, the holy martyrs Saturninus, Neopolus, German, and Celestine, who suffered many things, and were at last cast into prison, where they slept in the Lord.

Romæ sanctórum Mártyrum Saturníni, Neópoli, Germáni et Cælestíni, qui, multa passi, in cárcerem demum coniécti, ibi in Dómino quievérunt.

Likewise the holy martyrs Exuperius and Zoe his wife, their children Cyriacus and Theodulus, who suffered under the Emperor Hadrian.

Eódem die sancti Vindemiális, Epíscopi et Mártyris, qui, una cum sanctis Epíscopis Eugénio et Longíno doctrína et miráculis advérsus Ariános decértans, a Rege Wandalórum Hunneríco iubétur váriis torméntis afflígi ac tandem cápite obtruncári.

At Seville, the holy martyr the Deacon Felix.

Híspali, in Hispánia, sancti Felícis, Diáconi et Mártyris.

Upon the same day, [in the year 489,] the holy martyr Vindemial.

Attalíæ, in Pamphýlia, sanctórum Mártyrum Exsupérii, et Zoës uxóris, atque Cyríaci et Theodúli filiórum; qui, sub Hadriáno Imperatóre, cum servi essent cuiúsdam viri Pagáni, omnes, ipso hero iubénte, ob líberam Christiánæ fídei professiónem, primum verberáti sunt ac veheménter torti, deínde, in accénsum clíbanum iniécti, ánimas suas Deo tradidérunt.

77:38 Et abundávit ut avérteret iram suam: * et non accéndit omnem iram suam:

77:38 And many a time did he turn away his anger: * and did not kindle all his wrath.

77:39 Et recordátus est quia caro sunt: * spíritus vadens et non rédiens.

77:39 And he remembered that they are flesh: * a wind that goeth and returneth not.

77:40 Quóties exacerbavérunt eum in desérto, * in iram concitavérunt eum in inaquóso?

77:40 How often did they provoke him in the desert: * and move him to wrath in the place without water?

77:41 Et convérsi sunt, et tentavérunt Deum: * et Sanctum Israël exacerbavérunt.

77:50 Viam fecit sémitæ iræ suæ, non pepércit a morte animábus eórum: * et iuménta eórum in morte conclúsit.

77:50 He made a way for a path to his anger: * he spared not their souls from death, and their cattle he shut up in death.

77:51 Et percússit omne primogénitum in terra Ægýpti: * primítias omnis labóris eórum in tabernáculis Cham.

77:51 And he killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: * the firstfruits of all their labour in the tabernacles of Cham.

77:52 Et ábstulit sicut oves pópulum suum: * et perdúxit eos tamquam gregem in desérto.

77:54 Et eiécit a fácie eórum gentes: * et sorte divísit eis terram in funículo distributiónis.

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

Act. 8:9-13

Acts 8:9-13

9 Vir autem quidam nómine Simon, qui ante fúerat in civitáte magus, sedúcens gentem Samaríæ, dicens se esse áliquem magnum:

9 There was therefore great joy in that city. Now there was a certain man named Simon, who before had been a magician in that city, seducing the people of Samaria, giving out that he was some great one:

10 Cui auscultábant omnes a mínimo usque ad máximum, dicéntes: Hic est virtus Dei, quæ vocátur magna.

10 To whom they all gave ear, from the least to the greatest, saying: This man is the power of God, which is called great.

11 Attendébant autem eum: propter quod multo témpore magíis suis dementásset eos.

11 And they were attentive to him, because, for a long time, he had bewitched them with his magical practices.

12 Cum vero credidíssent Philíppo evangelizánti de regno Dei, in nómine Iesu Christi baptizabántur viri ac mulíeres.

12 But when they had believed Philip preaching of the kingdom of God, in the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

13 Tunc Simon et ipse crédidit: et cum baptizátus esset, adhærébat Philíppo. Videns étiam signa et virtútes máximas fíeri, stupens admirabátur.

13 Then Simon himself believed also; and being baptized, he adhered to Philip. And being astonished, wondered to see the signs and exceeding great miracles which were done.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

* He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit, alleluia, alleluia.

Act. 8:14-19

Acts 8:14-19

14 Cum autem audíssent Apóstoli qui erant Ierosólymis, quod recepísset Samaría verbum Dei, misérunt ad eos Petrum et Ioánnem.

14 Now when the apostles, who were in Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John.

15 Qui cum veníssent, oravérunt pro ipsis ut accíperent Spíritum Sanctum:

15 Who, when they were come, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost.

16 Nondum enim in quemquam illórum vénerat, sed baptizáti tantum erant in nómine Dómini Iesu.

16 For he was not as yet come upon any of them; but they were only baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

17 Tunc imponébant manus super illos, et accipiébant Spíritum Sanctum.

17 Then they laid their hands upon them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

18 Cum vidísset autem Simon quia per impositiónem manus Apostolórum darétur Spíritus Sanctus, óbtulit eis pecúniam,

18 And when Simon saw, that by the imposition of the hands of the apostles, the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,

19 Dicens: Date et mihi hanc potestátem, ut cuicúmque imposúero manus, accípiat Spíritum Sanctum.

19 Saying: Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I shall lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.

Act. 8:19-24

Acts 8:19-24

19 Petrus autem dixit ad eum:

19 But Peter said to him:

20 Pecúnia tua tecum sit in perditiónem: quóniam donum Dei existimásti pecúnia possidéri.

20 Keep thy money to thyself, to perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

21 Non est tibi pars neque sors in sermóne isto: cor enim tuum non est rectum coram Deo.

21 Thou hast no part nor lot in this matter. For thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

22 Pœniténtiam ítaque age ab hac nequítia tua: et roga Deum, si forte remittátur tibi hæc cogitátio cordis tui.

22 Do penance therefore for this thy wickedness; and pray to God, that perhaps this thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.

23 In felle enim amaritúdinis, et obligatióne iniquitátis, vídeo te esse.

23 For I see thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bonds of iniquity.

24 Respóndens autem Simon, dixit: Precámini vos pro me ad Dóminum, ut nihil véniat super me horum quæ dixístis.

24 Then Simon answering, said: Pray you for me to the Lord, that none of these things which you have spoken may come upon me.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

Athanásius, epíscopus Alexandrínus, cathólicæ religiónis propugnátor acérrimus, cum, adhuc diáconus, in Concílio Nicǽno Aríi impietátem repressísset, tantum ódium Arianórum suscépit, ut ex eo témpore ei insídias molíri nunquam destíterint. In exsílium actus, in Gállia apud Tréviros exsulávit. Incredíbiles dein calamitátes perpéssus, magnam orbis partem peragrávit; ac sæpe e sua ecclésia eiéctus, sæpe étiam in eándem, Iúlii, Románi Pontificis, auctoritáte atque decrétis concílii Sardicénsis ac Ierosolymitáni, restitútus est, Ariánis intérea illi semper inféstis. Dénique ex tot tantísque perículis divínitus eréptus, Alexandríæ mórtuus est sub Valénte. Eius vita et mors magnis nobilitáta est miráculis. Multa pie et ad illustrándam cathólicam fidem præcláre scripsit, sexque et quadragínta annos in summa témporum varietáte Alexandrínam ecclésiam sanctíssime gubernávit.

Athanasius was Bishop of Alexandria, and a most vigorous defender of the Catholic religion. When he was still a deacon, he refuted the impiety of Arius at the Council of Nicaea, and earned such hatred from the Arians that, from that time on, they never ceased to lay snares for him. Driven into exile, he went to Treves in Gaul. He endured unbelievable hardships and wandered over a great part of the world, being often driven from his Church, and often restored by the authority of Pope Julius and the decrees of the Councils of Sardica and Jerusalem. All this while, he was persecuted by the Arians. Finally, rescued, by the help of God, from so many great dangers, he died at Alexandria during the reign of Emperor Valens. His life and death are marked by great miracles. He wrote many works, both of devotion and of catechetics, and, with great holiness, he ruled the Church of Alexandria, in those most troubled times, for forty-six years.

May 3rd 2025, the 5th day of the Moon,

Romæ, via Nomentána, pássio sanctórum Mártyrum Alexándri, Evéntii et Theodúli Presbyterórum. Ex his Alexánder, sub Hadriáno Príncipe et Aureliáno Iúdice, post víncula, cárceres, equúleum, úngulas et ignes, punctis crebérrimis per tota membra confóssus ac perémptus est; Evéntius vero et Theodúlus, post longos cárceres, ígnibus examináti, ad últimum decolláti sunt.

It is commemorated the finding at Jerusalem in the time of the Emperor Constantine of the Most Holy Cross of the Lord.

Narniæ sancti Iuvenális, Epíscopi et Confessóris.

Upon the same day, were born into the better life: At Rome, upon the Nomentan Way, the holy martyrs Pope Alexander I., [in the year 117,] and the priests Eventius and Theodulos. Under the Emperor Hadrian and the judge Aurelian, Alexander suffered chains and imprisonment, racking, tearing with hooks, and fire, and was at length put to death by small stabs over his whole body. Eventius and Theodulos were long imprisoned, then examined under torture by fire, and at last beheaded.

Apud montem Senárium, in Etrúria, natális sanctórum Sostenǽi et Ugucciónis Confessórum, e septem Fundatóribus Ordinis Servórum beátæ Maríæ Vírginis; qui, cǽlitus admóniti, eádem die et hora, salutatiónem Angélicam recitántes, e vita migrárunt. Ipsórum autem ac Sociórum festum prídie Idus Februárii celebrátur.

At Narni, [in the year 376,] the holy Confessor Juvenal, Bishop of that see.

Constantinópoli sanctórum Mártyrum Alexándri mílitis, et Antonínæ Vírginis. Hæc, in persecutióne Maximiáni, sub Prǽside Festo, ad lupánar damnáta, et ab Alexándro, qui pro ipsa ibi remánserat, mutátis véstibus clam edúcta, cum eo póstmodum iussa est torquéri; et ambo simul in ignem, præcísis mánibus, pro Christo sunt iniécti, atque ita, egrégio perácto certámine, coronántur.

At Constantinople, [in the year 313,] the holy martyrs Alexander the Soldier, and Antonina the Virgin. In the persecution under the Emperor Maximian the President Festus condemned her to a brothel Alexander awaited her there, changed clothes with her, and so enabled her to escape. For this reason they were put to the torture together, and when both had had their hands cut off, they were together cast into the fire for Christ's sake, and having so finished together their noble contending, were crowned together.

In Thebáide sanctórum Mártyrum Timóthei et Mauræ cóniugis, quos Ariánus Præféctus, post multa torménta, cruci iussit affígi; in qua, per novem dies cum vivi pependíssent ac se ipsos in fide roborássent, martýrium consummárunt.

In the Thebaid, [about the year 286,] the holy martyrs Timothy and Myra his wife. The Prefect Arian, after putting them to diverse torments, ordered them to be crucified together. They hung upon the cross alive for nine days, the one strengthening the other in the faith, and so together at last finished their testimony.

Aphrodísiæ, in Cária, sanctórum Mártyrum Diodóri et Rhodopiáni, qui, in persecutióne Diocletiáni Imperatóris, a cívibus suis lapidáti sunt.

At Aphrodisia, in Karia, [in the fourth century,] the holy martyrs Diodorus and Rodopian, who were stoned to death by their fellow-citizens during the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian.

Hierosólymis Invéntio sacrosánctæ Crucis Domínicæ, sub Constantíno Imperatóre.

Upon Mount Senario, near Florence, [in the thirteenth century,] the blessed Confessors Sosthenes and Uguccio, two of the seven founders of the Order of Servants of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who departed this life upon the same day and at the same hour, as they were repeating the angelic salutation, even as had been foretold to them from heaven.

℣. Et álibi aliórum plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum et Confessórum, atque sanctárum Vírginum.

℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Psalm 88(20-38) [2]

88:20 Tunc locútus es in visióne sanctis tuis, et dixísti: * Pósui adiutórium in poténte: et exaltávi eléctum de plebe mea.

88:20 Then thou spokest in a vision to thy saints, and saidst: * I have laid help upon one that is mighty, and have exalted one chosen out of my people.

88:21 Invéni David, servum meum: * óleo sancto meo unxi eum.

88:21 I have found David my servant: * with my holy oil I have anointed him.

88:22 Manus enim mea auxiliábitur ei: * et brácchium meum confortábit eum.

88:22 For my hand shall help him: * and my arm shall strengthen him.

88:23 Nihil profíciet inimícus in eo, * et fílius iniquitátis non appónet nocére ei.

88:23 The enemy shall have no advantage over him: * nor the son of iniquity have power to hurt him.

88:24 And I will cut down his enemies before his face; * and them that hate him I will put to flight.

88:25 Et véritas mea, et misericórdia mea cum ipso: * et in nómine meo exaltábitur cornu eius.

88:25 And my truth and my mercy shall be with him: * and in my name shall his horn be exalted.

88:26 Et ponam in mari manum eius: * et in flumínibus déxteram eius.

88:26 And I will set his hand in the sea; * and his right hand in the rivers.

88:27 Ipse invocábit me: Pater meus es tu: * Deus meus, et suscéptor salútis meæ.

88:29 In ætérnum servábo illi misericórdiam meam: * et testaméntum meum fidéle ipsi.

88:29 I will keep my mercy for him for ever: * and my covenant faithful to him.

88:30 Et ponam in sǽculum sǽculi semen eius: * et thronum eius sicut dies cæli.

88:30 And I will make his seed to endure for evermore: * and his throne as the days of heaven.

88:31 Si autem derelíquerint fílii eius legem meam: * et in iudíciis meis non ambuláverint:

88:31 And if his children forsake my law, * and walk not in my judgments:

88:32 Si iustítias meas profanáverint: * et mandáta mea non custodíerint:

88:32 If they profane my justices: * and keep not my commandments:

88:33 Visitábo in virga iniquitátes eórum: * et in verbéribus peccáta eórum.

88:33 I will visit their iniquities with a rod: *and their sins with stripes.

88:34 Misericórdiam autem meam non dispérgam ab eo: * neque nocébo in veritáte mea:

88:34 But my mercy I will not take away from him: * nor will I suffer my truth to fail.

88:35 Neque profanábo testaméntum meum: * et quæ procédunt de lábiis meis, non fáciam írrita.

88:35 Neither will I profane my covenant: * and the words that proceed from my mouth I will not make void.

88:36 Semel iurávi in sancto meo: Si David méntiar: * semen eius in ætérnum manébit.

88:36 Once have I sworn by my holiness: I will not lie unto David: * his seed shall endure for ever.

88:37 Et thronus eius sicut sol in conspéctu meo, * et sicut luna perfécta in ætérnum: et testis in cælo fidélis.

138:1 Dómine, probásti me, et cognovísti me: * tu cognovísti sessiónem meam, et resurrectiónem meam.

138:1 Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me: * thou hast known my sitting down, and my rising up.

138:3 Intellexísti cogitatiónes meas de longe: * sémitam meam, et funículum meum investigásti.

138:3 Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: * my path and my life thou hast searched out.

138:4 Et omnes vias meas prævidísti: * quia non est sermo in lingua mea.

138:4 And thou hast foreseen all my ways: * for there is no speech on my tongue.

138:5 Ecce, Dómine, tu cognovísti ómnia novíssima, et antíqua: * tu formásti me, et posuísti super me manum tuam.

138:5 Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: * thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.

138:6 Mirábilis facta est sciéntia tua ex me: * confortáta est, et non pótero ad eam.

138:6 Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: * it is high, and I cannot reach to it.

138:7 Quo ibo a spíritu tuo? * et quo a fácie tua fúgiam?

138:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? * or whither shall I flee from thy face?

138:8 Si ascéndero in cælum, tu illic es: * si descéndero in inférnum, ades.

138:8 If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: * if I descend into hell, thou art present.

138:9 Si súmpsero pennas meas dilúculo, * et habitávero in extrémis maris:

138:9 If I take my wings early in the morning, * and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:

138:10 Étenim illuc manus tua dedúcet me: * et tenébit me déxtera tua.

138:10 Even there also shall thy hand lead me: * and thy right hand shall hold me.

138:11 Et dixi: Fórsitan ténebræ conculcábunt me: * et nox illuminátio mea in delíciis meis.

138:11 And I said: Perhaps darkness shall cover me: * and night shall be my light in my pleasures.

138:12 Quia ténebræ non obscurabúntur a te, † et nox sicut dies illuminábitur: * sicut ténebræ eius, ita et lumen eius.

138:12 But darkness shall not be dark to thee, † and night shall be light as the day: * the darkness thereof, and the light thereof are alike to thee.

138:15 My bone is not hidden from thee, which thou hast made in secret: * and my substance in the lower parts of the earth.

138:16 Imperféctum meum vidérunt óculi tui, † et in libro tuo omnes scribéntur: * dies formabúntur, et nemo in eis.

138:16 Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, † and in thy book all shall be written: * days shall be formed, and no one in them.

138:17 Mihi autem nimis honorificáti sunt amíci tui, Deus: * nimis confortátus est principátus eórum.

138:17 But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: * their principality is exceedingly strengthened.

138:18 Dinumerábo eos, et super arénam multiplicabúntur: * exsurréxi, et adhuc sum tecum.

138:18 I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand: * I rose up and am still with thee.

138:19 Si occíderis, Deus, peccatóres: * viri sánguinum, declináte a me:

138:19 If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: * ye men of blood, depart from me:

138:20 Quia dícitis in cogitatióne: * Accípient in vanitáte civitátes tuas.

138:20 Because you say in thought: * They shall receive thy cities in vain.

138:21 Nonne qui odérunt te, Dómine, óderam? * et super inimícos tuos tabescébam?

138:21 Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: * and pined away because of thy enemies?

138:22 Perfécto ódio óderam illos: * et inimíci facti sunt mihi.

138:22 I have hated them with a perfect hatred: * and they are become enemies to me.

138:23 Proba me, Deus, et scito cor meum: * intérroga me, et cognósce sémitas meas.

76:2 I cried to the Lord with my voice; * to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.

76:3 In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, * and I was not deceived.

76:4 Rénuit consolári ánima mea, * memor fui Dei, et delectátus sum, et exercitátus sum: et defécit spíritus meus.

76:4 My soul refused to be comforted: * I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.

76:8 Numquid in ætérnum proíciet Deus: * aut non appónet ut complacítior sit adhuc?

76:8 Will God then cast off for ever? * or will he never be more favourable again?

76:9 Aut in finem misericórdiam suam abscíndet, * a generatióne in generatiónem?

76:9 Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, * from generation to generation?

76:10 Aut obliviscétur miseréri Deus? * aut continébit in ira sua misericórdias suas?

De Actibus Apostolórum

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Act. 10:1-8

Acts 10:1-8

1 Vir autem quidam erat in Cæsaréa, nómine Cornélius, centúrio cohórtis quæ dícitur Itálica,

1 And there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, a centurion of that which is called the Italian band;

2 Religiósus, ac timens Deum cum omni domo sua, fáciens eleemósynas multas plebi, et déprecans Deum semper.

2 A religious man, and fearing God with all his house, giving much alms to the people, and always praying to God.

3 Is vidit in visu maniféste, quasi hora diéi nona, ángelum Dei introëúntem ad se, et dicéntem sibi: Cornéli.

3 This man saw in a vision manifestly, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in unto him, and saying to him: Cornelius.

4 At ille íntuens eum, timóre corréptus, dixit: Quid est, dómine? Dixit autem illi: Oratiónes tuæ et eleemósynæ tuæ ascendérunt in memóriam in conspéctu Dei.

4 And he, beholding him, being seized with fear, said: What is it, Lord? And he said to him: thy prayers and thy alms are ascended for a memorial in the sight of God.

5 Et nunc mitte viros in Ioppen, et accérsi Simónem quemdam, qui cognominátur Petrus:

5 And now send men to Joppe, and call hither one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:

6 Hic hospitátur apud Simónem quemdam coriárium, cuius est domus iuxta mare: hic dicet tibi quid te opórteat fácere.

6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side. He will tell thee what thou must do.

7 Et cum discessísset ángelus qui loquebátur illi, vocávit duos domésticos suos, et mílitem metuéntem Dóminum ex his qui illi parébant.

7 And when the angel who spoke to him was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a soldier who feared the Lord, of them that were under him.

8 Quibus cum narrásset ómnia, misit illos in Ioppen.

8 To whom when he had related all, he sent them to Joppe.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Christus resúrgens ex mórtuis, iam non móritur, mors illi ultra non dominábitur: quod enim mórtuus est peccáto, mórtuus est semel:

℟. Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him. For in that he died to sin, he died once;

* Quod autem vivit, vivit Deo, allelúia, allelúia.

* In that he liveth, he liveth unto God, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Mórtuus est semel propter delícta nostra, et resurréxit propter iustificatiónem nostram.

℣. He died once for the sins, and he rose for our justification.

℟. Quod autem vivit, vivit Deo, allelúia, allelúia.

℟. In that he liveth, he liveth unto God, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Act. 10:9-17

Acts 10:9-17

9 Póstera autem die, iter illis faciéntibus, et appropinquántibus civitáti, ascéndit Petrus in superióra ut oráret circa horam sextam.

9 And on the next day, whilst they were going on their journey, and drawing nigh to the city, Peter went up to the higher parts of the house to pray, about the sixth hour.

10 Et cum esuríret, vóluit gustáre. Parántibus autem illis, cécidit super eum mentis excéssus:

10 And being hungry, he was desirous to taste somewhat. And as they were preparing, there came upon him an ecstasy of mind.

11 Et vidit cælum apértum, et descéndens vas quoddam, velut línteum magnum, quátuor inítiis submítti de cælo in terram,

11 And he saw the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great linen sheet let down by the four corners from heaven to the earth:

12 In quo erant ómnia quadrupédia, et serpéntia terræ, et volatília cæli.

12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air.

13 Et facta est vox ad eum: Surge, Petre: occíde, et mandúca.

13 And there came a voice to him: Arise, Peter; kill and eat.

14 Ait autem Petrus: Absit Dómine, quia nunquam manducávi omne commúne et immúndum.

14 But Peter said: Far be it from me; for I never did eat any thing that is common and unclean.

15 Et vox íterum secúndo ad eum: Quod Deus purificávit, tu commúne ne díxeris.

15 And the voice spoke to him again the second time: That which God hath cleansed, do not thou call common.

16 Hoc autem factum est per ter: et statim recéptum est vas in cælum.

16 And this was done thrice; and presently the vessel was taken up into heaven.

17 Et dum intra se hæsitáret Petrus quidnam esset vísio quam vidísset, ecce viri qui missi erant a Cornélio, inquiréntes domum Simónis astitérunt ad iánuam.

17 Now, whilst Peter was doubting within himself, what the vision that he had seen should mean, behold the men who were sent from Cornelius, inquiring for Simon's house, stood at the gate.

Act. 10:34-41

Acts 10:34-41

34 Apériens autem Petrus os suum, dixit: In veritáte cómperi quia non est personárum accéptor Deus;

34 And Peter opening his mouth, said: In very deed I perceive, that God is not a respecter of persons.

35 Sed in omni gente qui timet eum, et operátur iustítiam, accéptus est illi.

35 But in every nation, he that feareth him, and worketh justice, is acceptable to him.

36 Verbum misit Deus fíliis Israël, annúntians pacem per Iesum Christum (hic est ómnium Dóminus).

36 God sent the word to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: he is Lord of all.

37 Vos scitis quod factum est verbum per univérsam Iudǽam: incípiens enim a Galilǽa post baptísmum quod prædicávit Ioánnes,

37 You know the word which hath been published through all Judea: for it began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached,

38 Iesum a Názareth: quómodo unxit eum Deus Spíritu Sancto, et virtúte, qui pertránsiit benefaciéndo, et sanándo omnes oppréssos a diábolo, quóniam Deus erat cum illo.

38 Jesus of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

39 Et nos testes sumus ómnium quæ fecit in regióne Iudæórum, et Ierúsalem, quem occidérunt suspendéntes in ligno.

39 And we are witnesses of all things that he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed, hanging him upon a tree.

40 Hunc Deus suscitávit tértia die, et dedit eum maniféstum fíeri,

40 Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,

41 Non omni pópulo, sed téstibus præordinátis a Deo: nobis, qui manducávimus et bíbimus cum illo postquam resurréxit a mórtuis.

41 Not to all the people, but to witnesses preordained by God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he arose again from the dead;

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Ex Tractátu S. Augustíni Epíscopi de Sýmbolo ad Catechúmenos

From the Treatise of St. Augustine, Bishop, on the Creed, to the Catechumens

Lib. 3 cap. 4 in fine

Book 3, ch. 4, at the end

Per féminam mors, per féminam vita: per Hevam intéritus, per Maríam salus. Illa, corrúpta, secúta est seductórem: hæc, íntegra, péperit Salvatórem. Illa póculum a serpénte propinátum libénter accépit et viro trádidit, ex quo simul mereréntur occídi: hæc, grátia cælésti désuper infúsa, vitam prótulit, per quam caro mórtua possit resuscitári. Quis est qui hæc operátus est, nisi Vírginis Fílius et vírginum Sponsus, qui áttulit Matri fecunditátem, sed non ábstulit integritátem?

Through a woman came death; through a woman, life: through Eve, ruin; through Mary, salvation. The former, corrupted, followed the deceiver; the latter, uncorrupted, gave birth to the Saviour. Eve willingly accepted the drink offered by the serpent and handed it on to her husband; and by their action both deserved the penalty of death. Mary, filled with heavenly grace from above, brought forth life, by which mankind, already dead, can be revived. Who has worked this miracle, if not the Son of the Virgin and the Spouse of virgin who brought fruitfulness to His mother without taking away her integrity?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

108:14 In memóriam rédeat iníquitas patrum eius in conspéctu Dómini: * et peccátum matris eius non deleátur.

108:14 May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered in the sight of the Lord: * and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

108:15 Fiant contra Dóminum semper, et dispéreat de terra memória eórum: * pro eo quod non est recordátus fácere misericórdiam.

108:15 May they be before the Lord continually, and let the memory of them perish from the earth: * because he remembered not to shew mercy,

108:17 Et persecútus est hóminem ínopem, et mendícum, * et compúnctum corde mortificáre.

108:17 But persecuted the poor man and the beggar; * and the broken in heart, to put him to death.

108:18 Et diléxit maledictiónem, et véniet ei: * et nóluit benedictiónem, et elongábitur ab eo.

108:18 And he loved cursing, and it shall come unto him: * and he would not have blessing, and it shall be far from him.

108:18 Et índuit maledictiónem sicut vestiméntum, * et intrávit sicut aqua in interióra eius, et sicut óleum in óssibus eius.

108:18 And he put on cursing, like a garment: * and it went in like water into his entrails, and like oil in his bones.

108:19 Fiat ei sicut vestiméntum, quo operítur: * et sicut zona, qua semper præcíngitur.

108:19 May it be unto him like a garment which covereth him; * and like a girdle with which he is girded continually.

108:20 Hoc opus eórum, qui détrahunt mihi apud Dóminum: * et qui loquúntur mala advérsus ánimam meam.

108:20 This is the work of them who detract me before the Lord; * and who speak evils against my soul.

108:26 Help me, O Lord my God; * save me according to thy mercy.

108:27 Et sciant quia manus tua hæc: * et tu, Dómine, fecísti eam.

108:27 And let them know that this is thy hand: * and that thou, O Lord, hast done it.

108:28 Maledícent illi, et tu benedíces: * qui insúrgunt in me, confundántur: servus autem tuus lætábitur.

108:28 They will curse and thou wilt bless: * let them that rise up against me be confounded: but thy servant shall rejoice.

108:29 Induántur qui détrahunt mihi, pudóre: * et operiántur sicut diplóide confusióne sua.

108:29 Let them that detract me be clothed with shame: * and let them be covered with their confusion as with a double cloak.

108:30 Confitébor Dómino nimis in ore meo: * et in médio multórum laudábo eum.

108:30 I will give great thanks to the Lord with my mouth: * and in the midst of many I will praise him.

87:2 Lord, the God of my salvation: * I have cried in the day, and in the night before thee.

87:3 Intret in conspéctu tuo orátio mea: * inclína aurem tuam ad precem meam:

87:3 Let my prayer come in before thee: * incline thy ear to my petition.

87:4 Quia repléta est malis ánima mea: * et vita mea inférno appropinquávit.

87:4 For my soul is filled with evils: * and my life hath drawn nigh to hell.

87:5 Æstimátus sum cum descendéntibus in lacum: * factus sum sicut homo sine adiutório, inter mórtuos liber.

87:5 I am counted among them that go down to the pit: * I am become as a man without help, free among the dead.

87:6 Sicut vulneráti dormiéntes in sepúlcris, quorum non es memor ámplius: * et ipsi de manu tua repúlsi sunt.

87:6 Like the slain sleeping in the sepulchres, whom thou rememberest no more: * and they are cast off from thy hand.

87:7 They have laid me in the lower pit: * in the dark places, and in the shadow of death.

87:8 Thy wrath is strong over me: * and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me.

87:9 Longe fecísti notos meos a me: * posuérunt me abominatiónem sibi.

87:9 Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: * they have set me an abomination to themselves.

87:9 Tráditus sum, et non egrediébar: * óculi mei languérunt præ inópia.

87:9 I was delivered up, and came not forth: * my eyes languished through poverty.

87:10 Clamávi ad te, Dómine, tota die: * expándi ad te manus meas.

87:10 All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: * I stretched out my hands to thee.

87:11 Numquid mórtuis fácies mirabília: * aut médici suscitábunt, et confitebúntur tibi?

87:11 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? * or shall physicians raise to life, and give praise to thee?

87:12 Numquid narrábit áliquis in sepúlcro misericórdiam tuam, * et veritátem tuam in perditióne?

87:12 Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy: * and thy truth in destruction?

87:13 Numquid cognoscéntur in ténebris mirabília tua, * et iustítia tua in terra obliviónis?

87:15 Ut quid, Dómine, repéllis oratiónem meam: * avértis fáciem tuam a me?

87:15 Lord, why castest thou off my prayer: * why turnest thou away thy face from me?

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 10:11-16

John 10:11-16

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus pharisǽis: Ego sum pastor bonus. Bonus pastor ánimam suam dat pro óvibus suis. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus said unto the Pharisees: I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd giveth His life for His sheep. And so on.

Homilía sancti Gregórii Papæ

Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great.

Homilia 14 in Evangelia

14th on the Gospels

Audístis, fratres caríssimi, ex lectióne evangélica eruditiónem vestram: audístis et perículum nostrum. Ecce enim is, qui non ex accidénti dono, sed essentiáliter bonus est, dicit: Ego sum pastor bonus. Atque eiúsdem bonitátis formam, quam nos imitémur, adiúngit, dicens: Bonus pastor ánimam suam ponit pro óvibus suis. Fecit quod mónuit: osténdit quod iussit. Bonus pastor pro óvibus suis ánimam suam pósuit, ut in sacraménto nostro corpus suum et sánguinem vérteret, et oves quas redémerat, carnis suæ aliménto satiáret.

Dearly beloved brethren, ye have heard from the Holy Gospel what is at once your instruction, and our danger. Behold, how He Who, not by the varying gifts of nature, but of the very essence of His being, is Good, behold how He saith: I am the Good Shepherd. And then He saith what is the character of His goodness, even of that goodness of His which we must strive to copy: The Good Shepherd giveth His life for the Sheep. As He had foretold, even so did He; as He had commanded, so gave He example. The Good Shepherd gave His life for the sheep, and made His Own Body and His Own Blood to be our Sacramental Food, pasturing upon His Own Flesh the sheep whom He had bought.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

13:1 Corrúpti sunt, et abominábiles facti sunt in stúdiis suis: * non est qui fáciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.

13:1 They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: * there is none that doth good, no not one.

13:3 They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: * there is none that doth good: no not one.

13:3 Sepúlcrum patens est guttur eórum: † linguis suis dolóse agébant * venénum áspidum sub lábiis eórum.

13:3 Their throat is an open sepulchre; † with their tongues they acted deceitfully: * the poison of asps is under their lips.

13:6 Quóniam Dóminus in generatióne iusta est, † consílium ínopis confudístis: * quóniam Dóminus spes eius est.

13:6 For the Lord is in the just generation: † you have confounded the counsel of the poor man; * but the Lord is his hope.

13:7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israël? * cum avérterit Dóminus captivitátem plebis suæ, exsultábit Iacob, et lætábitur Israël.

20:13 For thou shalt make them turn their back: * in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.

20:14 Exaltáre, Dómine, in virtúte tua: * cantábimus et psallémus virtútes tuas.

De Actibus Apostolórum

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Act. 15:5-12

Acts 15:5-12

5 Surrexérunt autem quidam de hǽresi Pharisæórum, qui credidérunt, dicéntes quia opórtet circumcídi eos, præcípere quoque serváre legem Móysi.

5 But there arose some of the sect of the Pharisees that believed, saying: They must be circumcised, and be commanded to observe the law of Moses.

6 Convenerúntque Apóstoli et senióres vidére de verbo hoc.

6 And the apostles and ancients assembled to consider of this matter.

7 Cum autem magna conquisítio fíeret, surgens Petrus dixit ad eos: Viri fratres, vos scitis quóniam ab antíquis diébus Deus in nobis elégit, per os meum audíre gentes verbum Evangélii et crédere.

7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter, rising up, said to them: Men, brethren, you know, that in former days God made choice among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

8 Et qui novit corda Deus, testimónium perhíbuit, dans illis Spíritum Sanctum, sicut et nobis,

8 And God, who knoweth the hearts, gave testimony, giving unto them the Holy Ghost, as well as to us;

9 Et nihil discrévit inter nos et illos, fide puríficans corda eórum.

9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

10 Nunc ergo quid tentátis Deum, impónere iugum super cervíces discipulórum quod neque patres nostri, neque nos portáre potúimus?

10 Now therefore, why tempt you God to put a yoke upon the necks of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?

11 Sed per grátiam Dómini Iesu Christi crédimus salvári, quemádmodum et illi.

11 But by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we believe to be saved, in like manner as they also.

12 Tácuit autem omnis multitúdo: et audiébant Bárnabam et Paulum narrántes quanta Deus fecísset signa et prodígia in géntibus per eos.

12 And all the multitude held their peace; and they heard Barnabas and Paul telling what great signs and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Virtúte magna reddébant Apóstoli,

℟. With great power gave the Apostles

* Testimónium resurrectiónis Iesu Christi Dómini nostri, allelúia, allelúia.

* Witness of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Repléti quidem Spíritu Sancto loquebántur cum fidúcia verbum Dei.

℣. They were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness.

℟. Testimónium resurrectiónis Iesu Christi Dómini nostri, allelúia, allelúia.

℟. Witness of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Act. 15:13-21

Acts 15:13-21

13 Et postquam tacuérunt, respóndit Iacóbus, dicens: Viri fratres, audíte me.

13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying: Men, brethren, hear me.

14 Simon narrávit quemádmodum primum Deus visitávit súmere ex géntibus pópulum nómini suo.

14 Simon hath related how God first visited to take of the Gentiles a people to his name.

15 Et huic concórdant verba prophetárum: sicut scriptum est:

15 And to this agree the words of the prophets, as it is written:

16 Post hæc revértar, et reædificábo tabernáculum David quod décidit: et díruta eius reædificábo, et érigam illud:

16 After these things I will return, and will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and the ruins thereof I will rebuild, and I will set it up:

17 Ut requírant céteri hóminum Dóminum, et omnes gentes super quas invocátum est nomen meum, dicit Dóminus fáciens hæc.

17 That the residue of men may seek after the Lord, and all nations upon whom my name is invoked, saith the Lord, who doth these things.

18 Notum a sǽculo est Dómino opus suum.

18 To the Lord was his own work known from the beginning of the world.

19 Propter quod ego iúdico non inquietári eos qui ex géntibus convertúntur ad Deum,

19 For which cause I judge that they, who from among the Gentiles are converted to God, are not to be disquieted.

20 Sed scríbere ad eos ut abstíneant se a contaminatiónibus simulacrórum, et fornicatióne, et suffocátis, et sánguine.

20 But that we write unto them, that they refrain themselves from the pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.

21 Móyses enim a tempóribus antíquis habet in síngulis civitátibus qui eum prǽdicent in synagógis, ubi per omne sábbatum légitur.

21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him in the synagogues, where he is read every sabbath.

Act. 15:22-29

Acts 15:22-29

22 Tunc plácuit Apóstolis et senióribus cum omni ecclésia elígere viros ex eis, et míttere Antiochíam cum Paulo et Bárnaba: Iudam, qui cognominabátur Bársabas, et Silam, viros primos in frátribus:

22 Then it pleased the apostles and ancients, with the whole church, to choose men of their own company, and to send to Antioch, with Paul and Barnabas, namely, Judas, who was surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren.

23 Scribéntes per manus eórum: Apóstoli et senióres fratres, his qui sunt Antiochíæ, et Sýriæ, et Cilíciæ, frátribus ex géntibus, salútem.

23 Writing by their hands: The apostles and ancients, brethren, to the brethren of the Gentiles that are at Antioch, and in Syria and Cilicia, greeting.

24 Quóniam audívimus quia quidam ex nobis exeúntes, turbavérunt vos verbis, everténtes ánimas vestras, quibus non mandávimus,

24 Forasmuch as we have heard, that some going out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls; to whom we gave no commandment:

25 Plácuit nobis colléctis in unum elígere viros, et míttere ad vos cum caríssimis nostris Bárnaba et Paulo,

25 It hath seemed good to us, being assembled together, to choose out men, and to send them unto you, with our well beloved Barnabas and Paul:

26 Homínibus qui tradidérunt ánimas suas pro nómine Dómini nostri Iesu Christi.

26 Men that have given their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

27 Mísimus ergo Iudam et Silam, qui et ipsi vobis verbis réferent éadem.

27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves also will, by word of mouth, tell you the same things.

28 Visum est enim Spirítui Sancto et nobis nihil ultra impónere vobis óneris quam hæc necessária:

28 For it hath seemed good to the Holy Ghost and to us, to lay no further burden upon you than these necessary things:

29 Ut abstineátis vos ab immolátis simulacrórum, et sánguine, et suffocáto, et fornicatióne: a quibus custodiéntes vos, bene agétis. Valéte.

29 That you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which things keeping yourselves, you shall do well. Fare ye well.

Pius, Boschi in Insúbria natus, cum quatuórdecim esset annórum, órdinem Prædicatórum ingréssus est. Sacerdótio auctus, sacras conciónes plúribus in locis cum ingénti animárum fructu hábuit. Inquisitóris offícium diu fórtiter ac laudabíliter sustínuit, et a Paulo quarto ad Nepesínum et Sutrínum episcopátum promótus, post biénnium inter patres cardináles adscríptus est. A Pio quarto translátus ad ecclésiam Montis Regális in Subalpínis, diœcésim vísitans, abúsus représsit; et Romam revérsus, in gravíssimis negótiis expediéndis fuit occupátus. Mórtuo autem Pio, præter ómnium exspectatiónem eléctus Póntifex, nihil in vitæ ratióne, excépto exterióri hábitu, immutávit. Selímum Turcárum tyránnum, ingénti comparáta classe, ad Echínadas ínsulas non tam armis quam fusis précibus devícit. Dum vero novam in ipsos Turcas expeditiónem paráret, piíssime óbiit in Dómino, anno millésimo quingentésimo septuagésimo secúndo, ætátis suæ sexagésimo octávo. Corpus eius in basílica sanctæ Maríæ maióris summa fidélium veneratióne cólitur. Eum Clemens Papa undécimus catálogo Sanctórum adscrípsit.

Pius, born at Bosco in Lombardy, entered the Order of Preachers at the age of fourteen. When he had been ordained to the priesthood, he preached in many churches, and his sermons bore much spiritual fruit. For a long time he carried out the office of Inquisitor in a way that was both vigorous and praiseworthy. He was promoted by Paul IV to the bishopric of Nepi and Sutri, and two years later he was enrolled among the Cardinals of the Church. Pius IV transferred him to the See of Mondóvi in Piedmont, where he visited his whole diocese and remedied many abuses. Thereafter, he returned to Rome, where he was engaged in many important affairs. When Pius IV died, he was elected Pope, contrary to all expectation; and thereafter he changed nothing in his way of life except his outer garments. Not so much by arms as by the prayers he poured out, he overcame Selim, the Sultan of the Turks, who had gathered together a huge fleet at Lepanto. In the year 1572, while preparing a new expedition against the Turks, he died peacefully in the Lord, at the age of sixty-eight. His body is venerated by the faithful in the basilica of St. Mary Major. Clement XI enrolled him among the Saints.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

On the morrow we keep the feast of the holy [Apostle and Evangelist] John before the Latin gate at Rome. He had been brought bound from Ephesus to Rome by command of Domitian, and by the judgment of the Senate he was put into a vessel of boiling oil before the said gate, but he came out thereof cleaner and healthier than he was when he was put therein, [about the year 95.]

At Damascus, [in the year 780,] blessed John of Damascus, famous for holiness and teaching. He strove manfully for the honouring of the holy images, both by word and writing, against the Emperor Leo the Isaurian, wherefore the Emperor commanded that his right hand should be smitten off, whereupon he commended himself to the image of the Blessed Virgin Mary which he had defended, and forthwith he received back his hand whole and sound, of whom we keep feast upon the 27th day of March.

30:10 Miserére mei, Dómine, quóniam tríbulor: * conturbátus est in ira óculus meus, ánima mea, et venter meus:

30:10 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: * my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:

30:11 Quóniam defécit in dolóre vita mea: * et anni mei in gemítibus.

30:11 For my life is wasted with grief: * and my years in sighs.

30:11 Infirmáta est in paupertáte virtus mea: * et ossa mea conturbáta sunt.

30:11 My strength is weakened through poverty * and my bones are disturbed.

30:12 Super omnes inimícos meos factus sum oppróbrium et vicínis meis valde: * et timor notis meis.

30:12 I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; * and a fear to my acquaintance.

30:12 Qui vidébant me, foras fugérunt a me: * oblivióni datus sum, tamquam mórtuus a corde.

30:12 They that saw me without fled from me. * I am forgotten as one dead from the heart.

30:13 Factus sum tamquam vas pérditum: * quóniam audívi vituperatiónem multórum commorántium in circúitu.

30:13 I am become as a vessel that is destroyed. * For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about.

30:14 In eo dum convenírent simul advérsum me, * accípere ánimam meam consiliáti sunt.

30:14 While they assembled together against me, * they consulted to take away my life.

30:15 Ego autem in te sperávi, Dómine: * dixi: Deus meus es tu: in mánibus tuis sortes meæ.

30:15 But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: * I said: Thou art my God. My lots are in thy hands.

30:16 Éripe me de manu inimicórum meórum, * et a persequéntibus me.

30:16 Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; * and from them that persecute me

30:17 Illústra fáciem tuam super servum tuum, salvum me fac in misericórdia tua: * Dómine, non confúndar, quóniam invocávi te.

30:17 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy. * Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee.

30:18 Erubéscant ímpii, et deducántur in inférnum: * muta fiant lábia dolósa.

30:18 Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell. * Let deceitful lips be made dumb.

30:19 Quæ loquúntur advérsus iustum iniquitátem: * in supérbia, et in abusióne.

30:19 Which speak iniquity against the just, * with pride and abuse.

℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

30:20 Perfecísti eis, qui sperant in te, * in conspéctu filiórum hóminum.

30:20 Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, * in the sight of the sons of men.

30:21 Abscóndes eos in abscóndito faciéi tuæ * a conturbatióne hóminum.

30:21 Próteges eos in tabernáculo tuo * a contradictióne linguárum.

30:21 Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle * from the contradiction of tongues.

30:22 Benedíctus Dóminus: * quóniam mirificávit misericórdiam suam mihi in civitáte muníta.

30:22 Blessed be the Lord, * for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.

30:23 Ego autem dixi in excéssu mentis meæ: * Proiéctus sum a fácie oculórum tuórum.

30:23 But I said in the excess of my mind: * I am cast away from before thy eyes.

30:23 Ídeo exaudísti vocem oratiónis meæ, * dum clamárem ad te.

30:23 Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, * when I cried to thee.

30:24 Dilígite Dóminum omnes sancti eius: * quóniam veritátem requíret Dóminus, et retríbuet abundánter faciéntibus supérbiam.

30:24 O love the Lord, all ye his saints: * for the Lord will require truth, and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.

37:16 For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: * thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.

37:17 For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: * and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.

37:18 Quóniam ego in flagélla parátus sum: * et dolor meus in conspéctu meo semper.

37:18 For I am ready for scourges: * and my sorrow is continually before me.

38:9 Ab ómnibus iniquitátibus meis érue me: * oppróbrium insipiénti dedísti me.

38:9 Deliver thou me from all my iniquities: * thou hast made me a reproach to the fool.

38:10 Obmútui, et non apérui os meum, quóniam tu fecísti: * ámove a me plagas tuas.

38:10 I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it: * remove thy scourges from me.

38:12 A fortitúdine manus tuæ ego deféci in increpatiónibus: * propter iniquitátem corripuísti hóminem.

38:12 The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes: * thou hast corrected man for iniquity.

38:12 Et tabéscere fecísti sicut aráneam ánimam eius: * verúmtamen vane conturbátur omnis homo.

38:12 And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: * surely in vain is any man disquieted.

38:13 Exáudi oratiónem meam, Dómine, et deprecatiónem meam: * áuribus pércipe lácrimas meas.

38:13 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: * give ear to my tears.

38:13 Ne síleas: quóniam ádvena ego sum apud te, et peregrínus, * sicut omnes patres mei.

De Actibus Apostolórum

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Act. 17:22-27

Acts 17:22-27

22 Stans autem Paulus in médio Areópagi, ait: Viri Atheniénses, per ómnia quasi superstitiosióres vos vídeo.

22 But Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious.

23 Prætériens enim, et videns simulácra vestra, invéni et aram in qua scriptum erat: Ignóto Deo. Quod ergo ignorántes cólitis, hoc ego annúntio vobis.

23 For passing by, and seeing your idols, I found an altar also, on which was written: To the unknown God. What therefore you worship, without knowing it, that I preach to you:

24 Deus, qui fecit mundum, et ómnia quæ in eo sunt, hic cæli et terræ cum sit Dóminus, non in manufáctis templis hábitat,

24 God, who made the world, and all things therein; he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

25 Nec mánibus humánis cólitur índigens áliquo, cum ipse det ómnibus vitam, et inspiratiónem, et ómnia:

25 Neither is he served with men's hands, as though he needed any thing; seeing it is he who giveth to all life, and breath, and all things:

26 Fecítque ex uno omne genus hóminum inhabitáre super univérsam fáciem terræ, defíniens statúta témpora, et términos habitatiónis eórum,

26 And hath made of one, all mankind, to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, determining appointed times, and the limits of their habitation.

27 Quǽrere Deum si forte attréctent eum, aut invéniant, quamvis non longe sit ab unoquóque nostrum.

27 That they should seek God, if happily they may feel after him or find him, although he be not far from every one of us:

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ego sum vitis vera, et vos pálmites:

℟. I am the True Vine, and ye are the branches;

* Qui manet in me, et ego in eo, hic fert fructum multum, allelúia, allelúia.

* He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Sicut diléxit me Pater, et ego diléxi vos.

℣. As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you.

℟. Qui manet in me, et ego in eo, hic fert fructum multum, allelúia, allelúia.

℟. He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Act. 17:28-33

Acts 17:28-33

28 In ipso enim vívimus, et movémur, et sumus: sicut et quidam vestrórum poëtárum dixérunt: Ipsíus enim et genus sumus.

28 For in him we live, and move, and are; as some also of your own poets said: For we are also his offspring.

29 Genus ergo cum simus Dei, non debémus æstimáre auro, aut argénto, aut lápidi, sculptúræ artis, et cogitatiónis hóminis, divínum esse símile.

29 Being therefore the offspring of God, we must not suppose the divinity to be like unto gold, or silver, or stone, the graving of art, and device of man.

30 Et témpora quidem huius ignorántiæ despíciens Deus, nunc annúntiat homínibus ut omnes ubíque pœniténtiam agant,

30 And God indeed having winked at the times of this ignorance, now declareth unto men, that all should every where do penance.

31 Eo quod státuit diem in quo iudicatúrus est orbem in æquitáte, in viro in quo státuit, fidem præbens ómnibus, súscitans eum a mórtuis.

31 Because he hath appointed a day wherein he will judge the world in equity, by the man whom he hath appointed; giving faith to all, by raising him up from the dead.

32 Cum audíssent autem resurrectiónem mortuórum, quidam quidem irridébant, quidam vero dixérunt: Audiémus te de hoc íterum.

32 And when they had heard of the resurrection of the dead, some indeed mocked, but others said: We will hear thee again concerning this matter.

33 Sic Paulus exívit de médio eórum.

33 So Paul went out from among them.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

* Pax vobis, allelúia: gavísi sunt discípuli viso Dómino, allelúia.

* Peace be unto you, alleluia. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord, alleluia.

℣. Una ergo sabbatórum, cum fores essent clausæ, ubi erant discípuli congregáti, venit Iesus, et stetit in medio eórum, et dixit eis.

℣. The first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, came Jesus, and stood in the midst, and said unto them:

℟. Pax vobis, allelúia: gavísi sunt discípuli viso Dómino, allelúia.

℟. Peace be unto you, alleluia. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord, alleluia.

Benediction. May the Spirit's fire Divine in our hearts enkindled shine.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

34 Quidam vero viri adhæréntes ei, credidérunt: in quibus et Dionýsius Areopagíta, et múlier nómine Dámaris, et álii cum eis.

34 But certain men adhering to him, did believe; among whom was also Dionysius, the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

1 Post hæc egréssus ab Athénis, venit Corínthum:

1 After these things, departing from Athens, he came to Corinth.

2 Et invéniens quemdam Iudǽum nómine Aquilam, Pónticum génere, qui nuper vénerat ab Itália, et Priscíllam uxórem eius (eo quod præcepísset Cláudius discédere omnes Iudǽos a Roma), accéssit ad eos.

2 And finding a certain Jew, named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with Priscilla his wife, (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome,) he came to them.

3 Et quia eiúsdem erat artis, manébat apud eos, et operabátur. (Erant autem scenofactóriæ artis.)

3 And because he was of the same trade, he remained with them, and wrought; (now they were tentmakers by trade.)

4 Et disputábat in synagóga per omne sábbatum, interpónens nomen Dómini Iesu: suadebátque Iudǽis et Græcis.

40:2 Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: * the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.

40:3 Dóminus consérvet eum, et vivíficet eum, et beátum fáciat eum in terra: * et non tradat eum in ánimam inimicórum eius.

40:3 The Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth: * and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.

40:4 Dóminus opem ferat illi super lectum dolóris eius: * univérsum stratum eius versásti in infirmitáte eius.

40:4 The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: * thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.

40:5 Ego dixi: Dómine, miserére mei: * sana ánimam meam, quia peccávi tibi.

40:5 I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: * heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.

40:6 Inimíci mei dixérunt mala mihi: * Quando moriétur, et períbit nomen eius?

40:6 My enemies have spoken evils against me: * when shall he die and his name perish?

40:7 Et si ingrediebátur ut vidéret, vana loquebátur: * cor eius congregávit iniquitátem sibi.

40:7 And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: * his heart gathered together iniquity to itself.

40:7 Egrediebátur foras, * et loquebátur in idípsum.

40:7 He went out * and spoke to the same purpose.

40:8 Advérsum me susurrábant omnes inimíci mei: * advérsum me cogitábant mala mihi.

40:10 Étenim homo pacis meæ, in quo sperávi: * qui edébat panes meos, magnificávit super me supplantatiónem.

40:10 For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, * who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.

40:11 Tu autem, Dómine, miserére mei, et resúscita me: * et retríbuam eis.

40:11 But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again: * and I will requite them.

40:12 In hoc cognóvi quóniam voluísti me: * quóniam non gaudébit inimícus meus super me.

40:12 By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me: * because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.

Psalm 43(2-9) [1]

43:2 Deus áuribus nostris audívimus: * patres nostri annuntiavérunt nobis.

43:2 We have heard, O God, with our ears: * our fathers have declared to us,

43:2 Opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum, * et in diébus antíquis.

43:2 The work thou hast wrought in their days, * and in the days of old.

43:3 Manus tua gentes dispérdidit, et plantásti eos: * afflixísti pópulos, et expulísti eos.

43:3 Thy hand destroyed the Gentiles, and thou plantedst them: * thou didst afflict the people and cast them out.

43:4 Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et brácchium eórum non salvávit eos:

43:4 For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword: * neither did their own arm save them.

43:4 Sed déxtera tua, et brácchium tuum, et illuminátio vultus tui: * quóniam complacuísti in eis.

43:4 But thy right hand and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance: * because thou wast pleased with them.

43:5 Tu es ipse Rex meus et Deus meus: * qui mandas salútes Iacob.

43:5 Thou art thyself my king and my God, * who commandest the saving of Jacob.

43:6 In te inimícos nostros ventilábimus cornu: * et in nómine tuo spernémus insurgéntes in nobis.

43:6 Through thee we will push down our enemies with the horn: * and through thy name we will despise them that rise up against us.

43:7 Non enim in arcu meo sperábo: * et gládius meus non salvábit me.

43:7 For I will not trust in my bow: * neither shall my sword save me.

43:8 Salvásti enim nos de affligéntibus nos: * et odiéntes nos confudísti.

43:15 Thou hast made us a byword among the Gentiles: * a shaking of the head among the people.

43:16 Tota die verecúndia mea contra me est, * et confúsio faciéi meæ coopéruit me.

43:16 All the day long my shame is before me: * and the confusion of my face hath covered me.

43:17 A voce exprobrántis, et obloquéntis: * a fácie inimíci, et persequéntis.

De Actibus Apostolórum

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Act. 20:17-24

Acts 20:17-24

17 A Miléto autem mittens Ephesum, vocávit maióres natu ecclésiæ.

17 And sending from Miletus to Ephesus, he called the ancients of the church.

18 Qui cum veníssent ad eum, et simul essent, dixit eis: Vos scitis a prima die qua ingréssus sum in Asiam, quáliter vobíscum per omne tempus fúerim,

18 And when they were come to him, and were together, he said to them: You know from the first day that I came into Asia, in what manner I have been with you, for all the time,

19 Sérviens Dómino cum omni humilitáte, et lácrimis, et tentatiónibus, quæ mihi accidérunt ex insídiis Iudæórum:

19 Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews;

20 Quómodo nihil subtráxerim utílium, quóminus annuntiárem vobis et docérem vos, públice et per domos,

20 How I have kept back nothing that was profitable to you, but have preached it to you, and taught you publicly, and from house to house,

21 Testíficans Iudǽis atque gentílibus in Deum pœniténtiam, et fidem in Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum.

21 Testifying both to Jews and Gentiles penance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

22 Et nunc ecce alligátus ego spíritu, vado in Ierúsalem: quæ in ea ventúra sint mihi, ignórans:

22 And now, behold, being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem: not knowing the things which shall befall me there:

23 Nisi quod Spíritus Sanctus per omnes civitátes mihi protestátur, dicens quóniam víncula et tribulatiónes Ierosólymis me manent.

23 Save that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesseth to me, saying: That bands and afflictions wait for me at Jerusalem.

24 Sed nihil horum véreor: nec fácio ánimam meam pretiosiórem quam me, dúmmodo consúmmem cursum meum, et ministérium verbi quod accépi a Dómino Iesu, testificári Evangélium grátiæ Dei.

24 But I fear none of these things, neither do I count my life more precious than myself, so that I may consummate my course and the ministry of the word which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Christus resúrgens ex mórtuis, iam non móritur, mors illi ultra non dominábitur: quod enim mórtuus est peccáto, mórtuus est semel:

℟. Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him. For in that he died to sin, he died once;

* Quod autem vivit, vivit Deo, allelúia, allelúia.

* In that he liveth, he liveth unto God, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Mórtuus est semel propter delícta nostra, et resurréxit propter iustificatiónem nostram.

℣. He died once for the sins, and he rose for our justification.

℟. Quod autem vivit, vivit Deo, allelúia, allelúia.

℟. In that he liveth, he liveth unto God, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Act. 20:25-31

Acts 20:25-31

25 Et nunc ecce ego scio quia ámplius non vidébitis fáciem meam vos omnes, per quos transívi prǽdicans regnum Dei.

25 And now behold, I know that all you, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

26 Quaprópter contéstor vos hodiérna die, quia mundus sum a sánguine ómnium.

26 Wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men;

27 Non enim subterfúgi, quóminus annuntiárem omne consílium Dei vobis.

27 For I have not spared to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

28 Atténdite vobis, et univérso gregi, in quo vos Spíritus Sanctus pósuit epíscopos régere ecclésiam Dei, quam acquisívit sánguine suo.

28 Take heed to yourselves, and to the whole flock, wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed you bishops, to rule the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

29 Ego scio quóniam intrábunt post discessiónem meam lupi rapáces in vos, non parcéntes gregi.

29 I know that, after my departure, ravening wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

30 Et ex vobis ipsis exsúrgent viri loquéntes pervérsa, ut abdúcant discípulos post se.

30 And of your own selves shall arise men speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

31 Propter quod vigiláte, memória retinéntes quóniam per triénnium nocte et die non cessávi, cum lácrimis monens unumquémque vestrum.

31 Therefore watch, keeping in memory, that for three years I ceased not, with tears to admonish every one of you night and day

Act. 20:32-38

Acts 20:32-38

32 Et nunc comméndo vos Deo, et verbo grátiæ ipsíus, qui potens est ædificáre, et dare hereditátem in sanctificátis ómnibus.

32 And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, who is able to build up, and to give an inheritance among all the sanctified.

33 Argéntum, et aurum, aut vestem nullíus concupívi, sicut

33 I have not coveted any man's silver, gold, or apparel, as

34 Ipsi scitis: quóniam ad ea quæ mihi opus erant, et his qui mecum sunt, ministravérunt manus istæ.

34 You yourselves know: for such things as were needful for me and them that are with me, these hands have furnished.

35 Omnia osténdi vobis, quóniam sic laborántes, opórtet suscípere infírmos ac meminísse verbi Dómini Iesu: quóniam ipse dixit: Beátius est magis dare, quam accípere.

35 I have showed you all things, how that so labouring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the word of the Lord Jesus, how he said: It is a more blessed thing to give, rather than to receive.

36 Et cum hæc dixísset, pósitis génibus suis orávit cum ómnibus illis.

36 And when he had said these things, kneeling down, he prayed with them all.

37 Magnus autem fletus factus est ómnium: et procumbéntes super collum Pauli, osculabántur eum,

37 And there was much weeping among them all; and falling on the neck of Paul, they kissed him,

38 Doléntes máxime in verbo quod díxerat, quóniam ámplius fáciem eius non essent visúri. Et deducébant eum ad navem.

38 Being grieved most of all for the word which he had said, that they should see his face no more. And they brought him on his way to the ship.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Stanisláus, apud Cracóviam nóbili génere natus, quem pii paréntes, per trigínta annos stériles, a Deo précibus impetrárunt, ab ineúnte ætáte futúræ sanctitátis spécimen dedit. Adoléscens in sacra cánonum et theologíæ doctrína multum profécit. Paréntibus mórtuis, amplum patrimónium paupéribus distríbuit, vitæ monásticæ desidério. Sed, Deo áliter disponénte, canónicus Cracoviénsis et concionátor factus a Lampérto epíscopo, in eius póstea locum, quamvis invítus, sufféctus est. Quo in múnere ómnium pastorálium virtútum laude, et præcípue misericórdia in páuperes enítuit. Bolesláum Polóniæ regem, sǽpius ob mores corrúptos frustra admónitum, a fidélium communióne remóvit. Qui idcírco iracúndia furens, mílites in ecclésiam immíttit, ut sanctum epíscopum confódiant; sed cum divínitus fuíssent depúlsi, ímpius rex sacerdótem Dei, Hóstiam immaculátam ad altáre offeréntem, sua manu obtrúncat. Multis miráculis Servi sui sanctitátem Deus declarávit post eius mortem, quibus permótus Innocéntius quartus illum in Sanctórum númerum rétulit.

Stanislas was born of a noble family at Krakow. His birth was God's answer to the devout prayers of his parents, who in thirty years of marriage had remained childless. From his earliest days, he gave tokens of future holiness, and, as a young man, made great progress in the study of canon law and theology. When his parents died, he distributed his large inheritance to the poor, intending to embrace the monastic life. But God arranged otherwise, and he was made Canon and Preacher in Krakow by Bishop Lampert. Against his wishes, he later became Bishop Lampert's successor, and in this office he was a shining example of every pastoral virtue, especially of kindness to the poor. He excommunicated Boleslas, King of Poland, whom he had often rebuked in vain for his corrupt way of life. In a violent rage the King sent soldiers to the church to kill the holy Bishop. But when these were driven off by the power of God, the King with his own hand beheaded Bishop Stanislas as he was offering the immaculate Victim on the altar. God proclaimed the holiness of his servant by many miracles after his death; and on the strength of them Innocent IV enrolled him among the Saints.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

25:6 I will wash my hands among the innocent; * and will compass thy altar, O Lord:

25:7 Ut áudiam vocem laudis, * et enárrem univérsa mirabília tua.

25:7 That I may hear the voice of thy praise: * and tell of all thy wondrous works.

25:8 Dómine, diléxi decórem domus tuæ, * et locum habitatiónis glóriæ tuæ.

25:8 I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; * and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

25:9 Ne perdas cum ímpiis, Deus, ánimam meam, * et cum viris sánguinum vitam meam:

Psalm 51 [2]

51:4 Tota die iniustítiam cogitávit lingua tua: * sicut novácula acúta fecísti dolum.

51:4 All the day long thy tongue hath devised injustice: * as a sharp razor, thou hast wrought deceit.

51:5 Dilexísti malítiam super benignitátem: * iniquitátem magis quam loqui æquitátem.

51:5 Thou hast loved malice more than goodness: * and iniquity rather than to speak righteousness.

51:6 Dilexísti ómnia verba præcipitatiónis, * lingua dolósa.

51:6 Thou hast loved all the words of ruin, * O deceitful tongue.

51:7 Proptérea Deus déstruet te in finem, * evéllet te, et emigrábit te de tabernáculo tuo: et radícem tuam de terra vivéntium.

51:7 Therefore will God destroy thee for ever: * he will pluck thee out, and remove thee from thy dwelling place: and thy root out of the land of the living.

51:8 Vidébunt iusti, et timébunt, et super eum ridébunt, et dicent: * Ecce homo, qui non pósuit Deum adiutórem suum:

51:8 The just shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say: * Behold the man that made not God his helper:

51:9 Sed sperávit in multitúdine divitiárum suárum: * et præváluit in vanitáte sua.

51:9 But trusted in the abundance of his riches: * and prevailed in his vanity.

51:10 Ego autem, sicut olíva fructífera in domo Dei, * sperávi in misericórdia Dei in ætérnum: et in sǽculum sǽculi.

51:10 But I, as a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, * have hoped in the mercy of God for ever, yea for ever and ever.

52:4 All have gone aside, they are become unprofitable together, * there is none that doth good, no not one.

52:5 Nonne scient omnes qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?

52:5 Shall not all the workers of iniquity know, * who eat up my people as they eat bread?

52:6 Deum non invocavérunt: * illic trepidavérunt timóre, ubi non erat timor.

52:6 They have not called upon God: * there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.

52:6 Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum qui homínibus placent: * confúsi sunt, quóniam Deus sprevit eos.

52:6 For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: * they have been confounded, because God hath despised them.

52:7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israël? * cum convérterit Deus captivitátem plebis suæ, exsultábit Iacob, et lætábitur Israël.

Medioláni item natális sancti Victóris Mártyris, qui, natióne Maurus et a primǽva ætáte Christiánus, a Maximiáno, cum esset in castris imperiálibus miles, compúlsus ut idólis sacrificáret, et in confessióne Dómini fortíssime persevérans, ídeo, primum gráviter fústibus cæsus, sed, Deo protegénte, dolóris expers; deínde liquénti plumbo perfúsus, sed nihil pénitus læsus; novíssime gloriósi martýrii cursum, cápite abscíssus, implévit.

At Milan, the holy martyr Victor. He was a Moor by nation, and had been bred up a Christian from a child. He was a soldier in the Imperial Camp when he was commanded by Maximian to sacrifice to idols, but continued manfully to own the Lord. He was first heavily cudgelled, but God shielded him from pain and then molten lead was poured upon him, but by this also he was not hurt and so at last, being beheaded, finished the glorious course of his testimony.

Constantinópoli sancti Agáthii Centuriónis, qui, in persecutióne Diocletiáni et Maximiáni, a Firmo Tribúno delátus quod Christiánus esset, et a Iúdice Perínthi Bibiáno sævíssime tortus, Byzántii demum a Procónsule Flaccíno cápitis damnátus est.

At Constantinople, the holy Centurion Acathius, who in the persecution under Diocletian and Maximian was denounced as a Christian by the Tribune Firmus. He was most cruelly tortured at Perinthos, on the Black Sea, by Bibianus the judge, and was lastly condemned to death at Byzantium by the Pro-Consul Flaccinus. By the Will of God his body was afterwards carried to the shore at Squillacio in Calabria, where it is honourably buried.

Psalm 61 [1]

61:2 Nonne Deo subiécta erit ánima mea? * ab ipso enim salutáre meum.

61:2 Shall not my soul be subject to God? * for from him is my salvation.

61:3 Nam et ipse Deus meus, et salutáris meus: * suscéptor meus, non movébor ámplius.

61:3 For he is my God and my saviour: * he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.

61:4 Quoúsque irrúitis in hóminem? * interfícitis univérsi vos: tamquam paríeti inclináto et macériæ depúlsæ?

61:4 How long do you rush in upon a man? * you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.

61:5 Verúmtamen prétium meum cogitavérunt repéllere, cucúrri in siti: * ore suo benedicébant, et corde suo maledicébant.

61:5 But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: * they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.

61:6 Verúmtamen Deo subiécta esto, ánima mea: * quóniam ab ipso patiéntia mea.

61:9 Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. * God is our helper for ever.

61:10 Verúmtamen vani fílii hóminum, mendáces fílii hóminum in statéris: * ut decípiant ipsi de vanitáte in idípsum.

61:10 But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: * that by vanity they may together deceive.

61:11 Nolíte speráre in iniquitáte, et rapínas nolíte concupíscere: * divítiæ si áffluant, nolíte cor appónere.

61:11 Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: * if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.

10 Respóndit autem Paulus (annuénte sibi prǽside dícere): Ex multis annis te esse iúdicem genti huic sciens, bono ánimo pro me satisfáciam.

10 Then Paul answered, (the governor making a sign to him to speak:) Knowing that for many years thou hast been judge over this nation, I will with good courage answer for myself.

11 Potes enim cognóscere quia non plus sunt mihi dies quam duódecim, ex quo ascéndi adoráre in Ierúsalem:

11 For thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days, since I went up to adore in Jerusalem:

12 Et neque in templo invenérunt me cum áliquo disputántem, aut concúrsum faciéntem turbæ, neque in synagógis, neque in civitáte:

12 And neither in the temple did they find me disputing with any man, or causing any concourse of the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:

13 Neque probáre possunt tibi de quibus nunc me accúsant.

13 Neither can they prove unto thee the things whereof they now accuse me.

14 Confíteor autem hoc tibi, quod secúndum sectam quam dicunt hǽresim, sic desérvio Patri et Deo meo, credens ómnibus quæ in lege et prophétis scripta sunt:

14 But this I confess to thee, that according to the way, which they call a heresy, so do I serve the Father and my God, believing all things which are written in the law and the prophets:

15 Spem habens in Deum, quam et hi ipsi exspéctant, resurrectiónem futúram iustórum et iniquórum.

15 Having hope in God, which these also themselves look for, that there shall be a resurrection of the just and unjust.

16 In hoc et ipse stúdeo sine offendículo consciéntiam habére ad Deum et ad hómines semper.

16 And herein do I endeavour to have always a conscience without offence toward God, and towards men.

22 Dístulit autem illos Felix, certíssime sciens de via hac, dicens: Cum tribúnus Lýsias descénderit, áudiam vos.

22 And Felix put them off, having most certain knowledge of this way, saying: When Lysias the tribune shall come down, I will hear you.

23 Iussítque centurióni custodíre eum, et habére réquiem, nec quemquam de suis prohibére ministráre ei.

23 And he commanded a centurion to keep him, and that he should be easy, and that he should not prohibit any of his friends to minister unto him.

24 And after some days, Felix, coming with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jew, sent for Paul, and heard of him the faith, that is in Christ Jesus.

25 And as he treated of justice, and chastity, and of the judgment to come, Felix being terrified, answered: For this time, go thy way: but when I have a convenient time, I will send for thee.

26 Simul et sperans quod pecúnia ei darétur a Paulo, propter quod et frequénter accérsens eum, loquebátur cum eo.

26 Hoping also withal, that money should be given him by Paul; for which cause also oftentimes sending for him, he spoke with him.

Rom 6:9-10

Rom 6:9-10

Christus resúrgens ex mórtuis iam non móritur, mors illi ultra non dominábitur. Quod enim mórtuus est peccáto, mórtuus est semel: quod autem vivit, vivit Deo.

Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him. For in that he died to sin, he died once; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Psalm 72(1-9) [1]

72:1 Quam bonus Israël Deus, * his, qui recto sunt corde!

72:1 How good is God to Israel, * to them that are of a right heart!

72:2 Mei autem pæne moti sunt pedes: * pæne effúsi sunt gressus mei.

72:2 But my feet were almost moved; * my steps had wellnigh slipped.

72:3 Quia zelávi super iníquos, * pacem peccatórum videns.

72:3 Because I had a zeal on occasion of the wicked, * seeing the prosperity of sinners.

72:4 Quia non est respéctus morti eórum: * et firmaméntum in plaga eórum.

72:4 For there is no regard to their death, * nor is there strength in their stripes.

72:5 In labóre hóminum non sunt, * et cum homínibus non flagellabúntur:

72:5 They are not in the labour of men: * neither shall they be scourged like other men.

72:6 Ídeo ténuit eos supérbia, * opérti sunt iniquitáte et impietáte sua.

72:6 Therefore pride hath held them fast: * they are covered with their iniquity and their wickedness.

72:7 Pródiit quasi ex ádipe iníquitas eórum: * transiérunt in afféctum cordis.

72:7 Their iniquity hath come forth, as it were from fatness: * they have passed into the affection of the heart.

72:8 Cogitavérunt, et locúti sunt nequítiam: * iniquitátem in excélso locúti sunt.

72:8 They have thought and spoken wickedness: * they have spoken iniquity on high.

72:9 Posuérunt in cælum os suum: * et lingua eórum transívit in terra.

72:9 They have set their mouth against heaven: * and their tongue hath passed through the earth.

72:10 Ídeo convertétur pópulus meus hic: * et dies pleni inveniéntur in eis.

72:10 Therefore will my people return here * and full days shall be found in them.

72:11 Et dixérunt: Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in excélso?

72:11 And they said: How doth God know? * and is there knowledge in the most High?

72:12 Ecce, ipsi peccatóres, et abundántes in sǽculo, * obtinuérunt divítias.

72:12 Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.

72:13 Et dixi: Ergo sine causa iustificávi cor meum, * et lavi inter innocéntes manus meas:

72:13 And I said: Then have I in vain justified my heart, * and washed my hands among the innocent.

72:14 Et fui flagellátus tota die, * et castigátio mea in matutínis.

72:14 And I have been scourged all the day; * and my chastisement hath been in the mornings.

72:15 Si dicébam: Narrábo sic: * ecce, natiónem filiórum tuórum reprobávi.

72:15 If I said: I will speak thus; * behold I should condemn the generation of thy children.

72:16 Existimábam ut cognóscerem hoc, * labor est ante me:

72:16 I studied that I might know this thing, * it is a labour in my sight:

72:17 Donec intrem in Sanctuárium Dei: * et intéllegam in novíssimis eórum.

72:17 Until I go into the sanctuary of God, * and understand concerning their last ends.

Psalm 72(18-28) [3]

72:18 But indeed for deceits thou hast put it to them: * when they were lifted up, thou hast cast them down.

72:19 Quómodo facti sunt in desolatiónem, súbito defecérunt: * periérunt propter iniquitátem suam.

72:19 How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: * they have perished by reason of their iniquity.

72:20 Velut sómnium surgéntium, Dómine, * in civitáte tua imáginem ipsórum ad níhilum rédiges.

72:20 As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.

72:21 Quia inflammátum est cor meum, et renes mei commutáti sunt: * et ego ad níhilum redáctus sum, et nescívi.

72:21 For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.

72:23 Ut iuméntum factus sum apud te: * et ego semper tecum.

72:23 I am become as a beast before thee: * and I am always with thee.

72:24 Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me, * et cum glória suscepísti me.

72:24 Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.

72:25 Quid enim mihi est in cælo? * et a te quid vólui super terram?

72:25 For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

72:26 Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

72:26 For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: * thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever.

72:27 Quia ecce, qui elóngant se a te, períbunt: * perdidísti omnes, qui fornicántur abs te.

72:27 For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

72:28 Mihi autem adhærére Deo bonum est: * pónere in Dómino Deo spem meam:

72:28 But it is good for me to adhere to my God, * to put my hope in the Lord God:

77:38 Ipse autem est miséricors, et propítius fiet peccátis eórum: * et non dispérdet eos.

77:38 Et abundávit ut avérteret iram suam: * et non accéndit omnem iram suam:

77:50 Viam fecit sémitæ iræ suæ, non pepércit a morte animábus eórum: * et iuménta eórum in morte conclúsit.

77:50 He made a way for a path to his anger: * he spared not their souls from death, and their cattle he shut up in death.

77:51 And he killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: * the firstfruits of all their labour in the tabernacles of Cham.

77:57 Et avertérunt se, et non servavérunt pactum: * quemádmodum patres eórum convérsi sunt in arcum pravum.

77:57 And they turned away, and kept not the covenant: * even like their fathers they were turned aside as a crooked bow.

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

78:2 They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be meat for the fowls of the air: * the flesh of thy saints for the beasts of the earth.

78:3 They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem, * and there was none to bury them.

78:4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours: * a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.

78:5 How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: * shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?

78:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that have not known thee: * and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

78:9 Help us, O God, our saviour: and for the glory of thy name, O Lord, deliver us: * and forgive us our sins for thy name’s sake:

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Act. 25:1-5

Acts 25:1-5

1 Festus ergo cum venísset in provínciam, post tríduum ascéndit Ierosólymam a Cæsaréa.

1 Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days, he went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea.

2 Adierúntque eum príncipes sacerdótum et primi Iudæórum advérsus Paulum: et rogábant eum,

2 And the chief priests, and principal men of the Jews, went unto him against Paul: and they besought him,

3 Postulántes grátiam advérsus eum, ut iubéret perdúci eum in Ierúsalem, insídias tendéntes ut interfícerent eum in via.

3 Requesting favour against him, that he would command him to be brought to Jerusalem, laying wait to kill him in the way.

4 Festus autem respóndit servári Paulum in Cæsaréa: se autem matúrius profectúrum.

4 But Festus answered: That Paul was kept in Caesarea, and that he himself would very shortly depart thither.

5 Qui ergo in vobis, ait, poténtes sunt, descendéntes simul, si quod est in viro crimen, accúsent eum.

5 Let them, therefore, saith he, among you that are able, go down with me, and accuse him, if there be any crime in the man.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Act. 25:6-8

Acts 25:6-8

6 Demorátus autem inter eos dies non ámplius quam octo aut decem, descéndit Cæsaréam, et áltera die sedit pro tribunáli, et iussit Paulum addúci.

6 And having tarried among them no more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea, and the next day he sat in the judgment seat; and commanded Paul to be brought.

7 Qui cum perdúctus esset, circumstetérunt eum, qui ab Ierosólyma descénderant Iudǽi, multas et graves causas obiciéntes, quas non póterant probáre:

7 Who being brought, the Jews stood about him, who were come down from Jerusalem, objecting many and grievous causes, which they could not prove;

8 Paulo ratiónem reddénte: Quóniam neque in legem Iudæórum, neque in templum, neque in Cǽsarem quidquam peccávi.

8 Paul making answer for himself: Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I offended in any thing.

Act. 25:9-12

Acts 25:9-12

9 Festus autem volens grátiam præstáre Iudǽis, respóndens Paulo, dixit: Vis Ierosólymam ascéndere, et ibi de his iudicári apud me?

9 But Festus, willing to show the Jews a pleasure, answering Paul, said: Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?

10 Dixit autem Paulus: Ad tribúnal Cǽsaris sto: ibi me opórtet iudicári: Iudǽis non nócui, sicut tu mélius nosti.

10 Then Paul said: I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged. To the Jews I have done no injury, as thou very well knowest.

11 Si enim nócui, aut dignum morte áliquid feci, non recúso mori: si vero nihil est eórum quæ hi accúsant me, nemo potest me illis donáre. Cǽsarem appéllo.

11 For if I have injured them, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die. But if there be none of these things whereof they accuse me, no man may deliver me to them: I appeal to Caesar.

12 Tunc Festus cum concílio locútus, respóndit: Cǽsarem appellásti? ad Cǽsarem ibis.

12 Then Festus having conferred with the council, answered: Hast thou appealed to Caesar? To Caesar shalt thou go.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

* Itaque epulémur in Dómino, allelúia.

Gregórius Nazianzénus, nóbilis Cáppadox, ob singulárem divinárum Litterárum sciéntiam, Theólogi cognómen consecútus, Athénis in omni disciplinárum génere una cum sancto Basilío erudítus, ad stúdia sacrárum Litterárum se convértit. Primum Sasimórum epíscopus creátus est, deínde Nazianzénam ecclésiam administrávit. Tum Constantinópolim ad eam regéndam ecclésiam accersítus, cum civitátem erróribus hǽresum purgátam, ad cathólicam fidem reduxísset, quod ei ómnium amórem conciliáre debébat, multórum parávit invídiam. Itaque, cum inter epíscopos magna proptérea esset facta sedítio, sponte cedens episcopátu, illud prophétæ dictum usurpávit: Si propter me commóta est ista tempéstas, deícite me in mare, ut vos iactári desinátis. Naziánzum revérsus, cum illi ecclésiæ Eulálium præficiéndum curásset, se totum ad oratiónem et stúdium rerum divinárum cóntulit. Egrégie multa scripsit solúta oratióne ac vérsibus, et consubstantialitátis Fílii fuit acérrimus propugnátor. Imperatóre Theodósio, ad cæléstem vitam sénio conféctus migrávit.

Gregory Nazianzus, a noble Cappadocian, earned the name of The Divine from his extraordinary knowledge of the sacred sciences. It was to these that he turned after being educated at Athens, together with St. Basil, in every branch of learning. He was first made Bishop of Sosima and then administered the Church of Nazianzus. Summoned to rule over the Church of Constantinople, he purged the city of heretical errors and brought it back to the Catholic faith. Although this deed should have won him the love of all, it earned him the hatred of many; so that, when a great quarrel had arisen among the bishops on his account, he resigned his See voluntarily, making his own the words of the prophet Jonah: If this storm hath arisen on my account, then throw me into the sea, that you may cease to be tossed about. He returned to Nazianzus, and having arranged that Eulalius should be its bishop, devoted himself wholly to prayer and the study of divine things. He wrote many famous works, both in prose and in verse, and was a most ardent defender of the doctrine of the consubstantiality of the Son with the Father. When Theodosius was emperor, Gregory, now grown old, departed to the life of heaven.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Psalmus 138(1-13) [1]

Psalm 138(1-13) [1]

138:1 Dómine, probásti me, et cognovísti me: * tu cognovísti sessiónem meam, et resurrectiónem meam.

138:1 Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me: * thou hast known my sitting down, and my rising up.

138:3 Intellexísti cogitatiónes meas de longe: * sémitam meam, et funículum meum investigásti.

138:3 Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: * my path and my life thou hast searched out.

138:4 Et omnes vias meas prævidísti: * quia non est sermo in lingua mea.

138:4 And thou hast foreseen all my ways: * for there is no speech on my tongue.

138:5 Ecce, Dómine, tu cognovísti ómnia novíssima, et antíqua: * tu formásti me, et posuísti super me manum tuam.

138:5 Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: * thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.

138:6 Mirábilis facta est sciéntia tua ex me: * confortáta est, et non pótero ad eam.

138:6 Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: * it is high, and I cannot reach to it.

138:7 Quo ibo a spíritu tuo? * et quo a fácie tua fúgiam?

138:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? * or whither shall I flee from thy face?

138:8 Si ascéndero in cælum, tu illic es: * si descéndero in inférnum, ades.

138:8 If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: * if I descend into hell, thou art present.

138:9 Si súmpsero pennas meas dilúculo, * et habitávero in extrémis maris:

138:9 If I take my wings early in the morning, * and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:

138:10 Étenim illuc manus tua dedúcet me: * et tenébit me déxtera tua.

138:10 Even there also shall thy hand lead me: * and thy right hand shall hold me.

138:11 Et dixi: Fórsitan ténebræ conculcábunt me: * et nox illuminátio mea in delíciis meis.

138:11 And I said: Perhaps darkness shall cover me: * and night shall be my light in my pleasures.

138:12 Quia ténebræ non obscurabúntur a te, † et nox sicut dies illuminábitur: * sicut ténebræ eius, ita et lumen eius.

138:12 But darkness shall not be dark to thee, † and night shall be light as the day: * the darkness thereof, and the light thereof are alike to thee.

138:13 Quia tu possedísti renes meos: * suscepísti me de útero matris meæ.

138:14 I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: † wonderful are thy works, * and my soul knoweth right well.

138:15 Non est occultátum os meum a te, quod fecísti in occúlto: * et substántia mea in inferióribus terræ.

138:15 My bone is not hidden from thee, which thou hast made in secret: * and my substance in the lower parts of the earth.

138:16 Imperféctum meum vidérunt óculi tui, † et in libro tuo omnes scribéntur: * dies formabúntur, et nemo in eis.

138:16 Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, † and in thy book all shall be written: * days shall be formed, and no one in them.

138:17 Mihi autem nimis honorificáti sunt amíci tui, Deus: * nimis confortátus est principátus eórum.

138:17 But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: * their principality is exceedingly strengthened.

138:18 Dinumerábo eos, et super arénam multiplicabúntur: * exsurréxi, et adhuc sum tecum.

138:18 I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand: * I rose up and am still with thee.

138:19 Si occíderis, Deus, peccatóres: * viri sánguinum, declináte a me:

138:19 If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: * ye men of blood, depart from me:

138:20 Quia dícitis in cogitatióne: * Accípient in vanitáte civitátes tuas.

138:20 Because you say in thought: * They shall receive thy cities in vain.

138:21 Nonne qui odérunt te, Dómine, óderam? * et super inimícos tuos tabescébam?

138:21 Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: * and pined away because of thy enemies?

138:22 Perfécto ódio óderam illos: * et inimíci facti sunt mihi.

138:22 I have hated them with a perfect hatred: * and they are become enemies to me.

138:23 Proba me, Deus, et scito cor meum: * intérroga me, et cognósce sémitas meas.

76:2 I cried to the Lord with my voice; * to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.

76:3 In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, * and I was not deceived.

76:4 Rénuit consolári ánima mea, * memor fui Dei, et delectátus sum, et exercitátus sum: et defécit spíritus meus.

76:4 My soul refused to be comforted: * I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.

76:5 Anticipavérunt vigílias óculi mei: * turbátus sum, et non sum locútus.

76:5 My eyes prevented the watches: * I was troubled, and I spoke not.

76:7 And I meditated in the night with my own heart: * and I was exercised and I swept my spirit.

76:8 Numquid in ætérnum proíciet Deus: * aut non appónet ut complacítior sit adhuc?

76:8 Will God then cast off for ever? * or will he never be more favourable again?

76:9 Aut in finem misericórdiam suam abscíndet, * a generatióne in generatiónem?

76:9 Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, * from generation to generation?

76:10 Aut obliviscétur miseréri Deus? * aut continébit in ira sua misericórdias suas?

De Actibus Apostolórum

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Act. 28:16-20

Acts 28:16-20

16 Cum autem venissémus Romam, permíssum est Paulo manére síbimet cum custodiénte se mílite.

16 And when we were come to Rome, Paul was suffered to dwell by himself, with a soldier that kept him.

17 Post tértium autem diem convocávit primos Iudæórum. Cumque conveníssent, dicébat eis: Ego, viri fratres, nihil advérsus plebem fáciens, aut morem patérnum, vinctus ab Ierosólymis tráditus sum in manus Romanórum,

17 And after the third day, he called together the chief of the Jews. And when they were assembled, he said to them: Men, brethren, I, having done nothing against the people, or the custom of our fathers, was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans;

18 Qui cum interrogatiónem de me habuíssent, voluérunt me dimíttere, eo quod nulla esset causa mortis in me.

18 Who, when they had examined me, would have released me, for that there was no cause of death in me;

19 Contradicéntibus autem Iudǽis, coáctus sum appelláre Cǽsarem, non quasi gentem meam habens áliquid accusáre.

19 But the Jews contradicting it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had any thing to accuse my nation of.

20 Propter hanc ígitur causam rogávi vos vidére, et álloqui. Propter spem enim Israël caténa hac circúmdatus sum.

20 For this cause therefore I desired to see you, and to speak to you. Because that for the hope of Israel, I am bound with this chain.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Christus resúrgens ex mórtuis, iam non móritur, mors illi ultra non dominábitur: quod enim mórtuus est peccáto, mórtuus est semel:

℟. Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him. For in that he died to sin, he died once;

* Quod autem vivit, vivit Deo, allelúia, allelúia.

* In that he liveth, he liveth unto God, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Mórtuus est semel propter delícta nostra, et resurréxit propter iustificatiónem nostram.

℣. He died once for the sins, and he rose for our justification.

℟. Quod autem vivit, vivit Deo, allelúia, allelúia.

℟. In that he liveth, he liveth unto God, alleluia, alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Act. 28:21-24

Acts 28:21-24

21 At illi dixérunt ad eum: Nos neque lítteras accépimus de te a Iudǽa, neque advéniens áliquis fratrum nuntiávit, aut locútus est quid de te malum.

21 But they said to him: We neither received letters concerning thee from Judea, neither did any of the brethren that came hither, relate or speak any evil of thee.

22 Rogámus autem a te audíre quæ sentis: nam de secta hac notum est nobis quia ubíque ei contradícitur.

22 But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest; for as concerning this sect, we know that it is every where contradicted.

23 Cum constituíssent autem illi diem, venérunt ad eum in hospítium plúrimi, quibus exponébat testíficans regnum Dei, suadénsque eis de Iesu ex lege Móysi et prophétis a mane usque ad vésperam.

23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came very many to him unto his lodgings; to whom he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, out of the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning until evening.

24 Et quidam credébant his quæ dicebántur: quidam vero non credébant.

24 And some believed the things that were said; but some believed not.

Act. 28:25-31

Acts 28:25-31

25 Cumque ínvicem non essent consentiéntes, discedébant, dicénte Paulo unum verbum: Quia bene Spíritus Sanctus locútus est per Isaíam prophétam ad patres nostros,

25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, Paul speaking this one word: Well did the Holy Ghost speak to our fathers by Isaias the prophet,

26 Dicens: Vade ad pópulum istum, et dic ad eos: Aure audiétis, et non intellegétis, et vidéntes vidébitis, et non perspiciétis.

26 Saying: Go to this people, and say to them: With the ear you shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see, and shall not perceive.

27 Incrassátum est enim cor pópuli huius, et áuribus gráviter audiérunt, et óculos suos compressérunt: ne forte vídeant óculis, et áuribus áudiant, et corde intéllegant, et convertántur, et sanem eos.

27 For the heart of this people is grown gross, and with their ears have they heard heavily, and their eyes they have shut; lest perhaps they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

28 Notum ergo sit vobis, quóniam géntibus missum est hoc salutáre Dei, et ipsi áudient.

28 Be it known therefore to you, that this salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it.

29 Et cum hæc dixísset, exiérunt ab eo Iudǽi, multam habéntes inter se quæstiónem.

29 And when he had said these things, the Jews went out from him, having much reasoning among themselves.

30 Mansit autem biénnio toto in suo condúcto: et suscipiébat omnes qui ingrediebántur ad eum,

30 And he remained two whole years in his own hired lodging; and he received all that came in to him,

31 Prǽdicans regnum Dei, et docens quæ sunt de Dómino Iesu Christo cum omni fidúcia, sine prohibitióne.

31 Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, without prohibition.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ecce vicit leo de tribu Iuda, radix David, aperíre librum, et sólvere septem signácula eius:

℟. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the Book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

* Allelúia, allelúia, allelúia.

* Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Antonínus, Floréntiæ honéstis paréntibus natus, ab ipsa puerítia egrégium futúræ sanctitátis spécimen exhíbuit. Annum agens sextum décimum, religiónem Prædicatórum ampléxus, cœpit exínde máximis virtútibus clarére. Singulári fuit abstinéntia, et virginitátem integérrime semper cóluit. In explicándis consíliis tantæ fuit dexteritátis, ut Antonínus consiliórum dicerétur. Ab Eugénio quarto Florentínus archiepíscopus renuntiátus, ægérrime tamen, nec nisi apostólicis minis perterrefáctus, ut episcopátum accíperet, acquiévit. In eo múnere prudéntia, pietáte, caritáte, mansuetúdine et sacerdotáli zelo excélluit. Omnes fere sciéntias, nullo adhíbito præceptóre, absolutíssimas dídicit, et multos insígnis doctrínæ libros scripsit. Obiit in Dómino sexto nonas maii, anno millésimo quadringentésimo quinquagésimo nono, et ab Hadriáno sexto in album Sanctórum fuit relátus.

Antoninus, born in Florence of good parents, from his boyhood gave remarkable evidence of his future sanctity. At the age of sixteen, he entered the Order of Friars Preachers, and from then on, he shone with the greatest virtues. His living was singularly abstemious, and he preserved his virginity intact. He was so skillful in giving advice that he was called Antoninus the Counsellor. Named Archbishop of Florence by Eugenius IV, he reluctantly accepted the post only at the Pope's insistence. In this office he excelled in prudence, piety, charity, gentleness and priestly zeal. With no teacher to help him, he gained a thorough mastery of almost all the sciences and wrote many famous books expounding them. He died in the Lord on May 2, 1459, and was canonized by Adrian VI.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

15 Et pedes eius símiles aurichálco, sicut in camíno ardénti, et vox illíus tamquam vox aquárum multárum:

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 16:16-22

John 16:16-22

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Módicum, et iam non vidébitis me; et íterum módicum, et vidébitis me: quia vado ad Patrem. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus said to his disciples: A little while, and now you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me: because I go to the Father. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo.

Tr. 101 in Ioann., sub fine

Tract 101 of John

Módicum est hoc totum spátium, quo præsens pérvolat sǽculum. Unde dicit idem ipse Evangelísta in Epístola sua: Novíssima hora est. Ideo namque áddidit: Quia vado ad Patrem: quod ad priórem senténtiam referéndum est, ubi ait: Módicum et iam non vidébitis me: non ad posteriórem, ubi ait: Et íterum módicum, et vidébitis me. Eúndo quippe ad Patrem, factúrus erat ut eum non vidérent. Ac per hoc non ídeo dictum est, quia fúerat moritúrus, et donec resúrgeret, ab eórum aspéctibus recessúrus: sed quod esset itúrus ad Patrem, quod fecit posteáquam resurréxit, et cum eis per quadragínta dies conversátus, ascéndit in cælum.

This little while is the whole duration of this present world. In the same sense this same Evangelist saith in his Epistle ii. 18: It is the last time. The words, because I go to the Father, refer to the first clause of the text, namely, A little while and ye shall not see Me, and not to the latter clause, that is, and again a little while, and ye shall see Me. By His going to the Father He was about to bring it to pass that they should see Him no more. And thus it was that He said, not that He was about to die, and that after His death they should not see Him until He rose again, but that He was going to the Father, which He did when, after that He was risen again and had manifested Himself to them for forty days, He ascended up into heaven.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Te Deum

Te Deum

Te Deum laudámus: * te Dóminum confitémur.

Te ætérnum Patrem * omnis terra venerátur.

All the earth doth worship thee, * the Father everlasting.

Tibi omnes Ángeli, * tibi Cæli, et univérsæ Potestátes:

To thee all Angels cry aloud, * the Heavens, and all the Powers therein.

Romæ, via Ardeatína, sanctórum Mártyrum Nérei et Achíllei fratrum, qui primo cum Flávia Domitílla, cuius erant eunúchi, in ínsula Póntia longum pro Christo duxérunt exsílium; póstmodum gravíssimis verbéribus attrectati sunt; deínde, cum a Minútio Rufo, viro Consulári, equúleo et flammis ad immolándum compelleréntur, diceréntque se, a beáto Petro Apóstolo baptizátos, nulla ratióne posse idólis immoláre, cápite cæsi sunt. Horum sacræ relíquiæ, simúlque Fláviæ Domitíllæ, ex Diaconía sancti Hadriáni in antíquum eórum Títulum, ubi asservabántur olim recónditæ, dénuo restaurátum, solémniter translátæ sunt prídie huius diéi, iussu Cleméntis Papæ Octávi; qui exínde hodiérna celebrándum die indíxit étiam festum ipsíus beátæ Domitíllæ Vírginis, cuius pássio Nonis huius mensis recensétur.

Commemorated at Rome, upon the way to Ardea, the holy brethren Nereus and Achilles, both martyrs. They were eunuchs belonging to Flavia Domitilla, and first suffered a long exile with her in the island of Ponza for Christ's Name's sake. Afterwards they were laid under most grievous stripes. Lastly, when Minutius Rufus, the Consular, was striving by racking and fire to force them to offer pagan sacrifices, and they said that they had been baptized by the blessed Apostle Peter and could in no wise make offerings to idols, they were beheaded. By command of Pope Clement VIII their sacred remains, along with those of Flavia Domitilla, were, upon the eve of this day, solemnly transferred from the Deaconry of St. Hadrian to the old church which bears their names, where they had formerly lain buried, and which had now been restored.

De libro Apocalýpsis beáti Ioánnis Apóstoli

Lesson from the book of Revelation

Apo 2:1-7

Rev 2:1-7

1 Angelo Ephesi ecclésiæ scribe: Hæc dicit, qui tenet septem stellas in déxtera sua, qui ámbulat in médio septem candelabrórum aureórum:

1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write: These things saith he, who holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks:

2 Scio ópera tua, et labórem, et patiéntiam tuam, et quia non potes sustinére malos: et tentásti eos, qui se dicunt apóstolos esse, et non sunt: et invenísti eos mendáces:

2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them that are evil, and thou hast tried them, who say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:

3 Et patiéntiam habes, et sustinuísti propter nomen meum, et non defecísti.

3 And thou hast patience, and hast endured for my name, and hast not fainted.

4 Sed hábeo advérsum te, quod caritátem tuam primam reliquísti.

4 But I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first charity.

5 Memor esto ítaque unde excíderis: et age pœniténtiam, et prima ópera fac: sin autem, vénio tibi, et movébo candelábrum tuum de loco suo, nisi pœniténtiam égeris.

5 Be mindful therefore from whence thou art fallen: and do penance, and do the first works. Or else I come to thee, and will move thy candlestick out of its place, except thou do penance.

8 And to the angel of the church of Smyrna write: These things saith the First and the Last, who was dead, and is alive:

9 Scio tribulatiónem tuam, et paupertátem tuam, sed dives es: et blasphemáris ab his, qui se dicunt Iudǽos esse, et non sunt, sed sunt synagóga Sátanæ.

9 I know thy tribulation and thy poverty, but thou art rich: and thou art blasphemed by them that say they are Jews and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

10 Nihil horum tímeas quæ passúrus es. Ecce missúrus est diábolus áliquos ex vobis in cárcerem ut tentémini: et habébitis tribulatiónem diébus decem. Esto fidélis usque ad mortem, et dabo tibi corónam vitæ.

10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer. Behold, the devil will cast some of you into prison that you may be tried: and you shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful until death: and I will give thee the crown of life.

13 I know where thou dwellest, where the seat of Satan is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith. Even in those days when Antipas was my faithful witness, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

14 Sed hábeo advérsus te pauca: quia habes illic tenéntes doctrínam Bálaam, qui docébat Balac míttere scándalum coram fíliis Israël, édere, et fornicári:

14 But I have against thee a few things: because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat, and to commit fornication:

15 Ita habes et tu tenéntes doctrínam Nicolaitárum.

15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaites.

Néreus et Achílleus fratres, eunúchi Fláviæ Domitíllæ, a beáto Petro una cum ipsa eiúsque matre Plautílla baptizáti, cum Domitíllæ persuasíssent, ut virginitátem suam Deo consecráret, ab eius sponso Aureliáno, quod Christiáni essent accusáti, in Póntiam ínsulam relegántur. Mox verbéribus cæsi, ut idólis immolárent, et Tarracínam perdúcti, equúlei et flammárum cruciátibus superátis, secúri percússi sunt; quorum córpora ab Auspício eórum discípulo Romam deláta, via Ardeatína sunt sepúlta. Flávia Domitílla vero, quæ sacrum virginitátis velámen a beáto Cleménte Papa accéperat, et ipsa in ínsulam Póntiam deportáta, et post diutúrna víncula Tarracínam dedúcta, iúdicis iussu incénso eius cubículo, una cum virgínibus Theodóra et Euphrósyna, collactáneis suis, gloriósam mortem oppétiit nonis maii, Traiáno imperatóre; quarum córpora Cæsárius diáconus sepelívit. Pancrátius, nóbili génere in Phrýgia natus, puer quatuórdecim annórum Romæ baptizátus, Diocletiáno et Maximiáno imperatóribus, comprehénditur, et, cum diis sacrificáre constánter renuísset, datis cervícibus, illústrem martýrii corónam consecútus est; cuius corpus ab Octavílla matróna clam via Aurélia sepúltum est.

The brothers Nereus and Achilleus were eunuchs of Flavia Domitilla and were baptized by St. Peter at the same time as she herself and her mother Plautilla. Because they persuaded Domitilla to consecrate her virginity to God, they were accused of being Christians by Aurelian, who had been betrothed to her, and were sent to the island of Ponza. Soon afterwards, they were scourged in an effort to make them sacrifice to idols, and were taken to Terracina, where, after they had overcome the torture of the rack and flaming torches, they were beheaded. Their bodies were taken to Rome by their disciple Auspicius and buried on the Ardeatine Way. As for Flavia Domitilla, who had received the sacred veil of a virgin from Pope St. Clement, she also was deported to the island of Ponza, and after a long imprisonment was taken to Terracina. There, by the judge's orders, her dwelling was set on fire, and she won a glorious death, along with the virgins Theodora and Euphrosyna, her foster-sisters, on May 7, under Emperor Trajan. Their bodies were buried by the Deacon Caesarius. Pancras, born of a noble Phrygian family, was baptized in Rome at the age of fourteen. Under the Emperors Diocletian and Maximian, he was arrested; and when he firmly refused to sacrifice to the gods, he was beheaded and so won the glorious crown of martyrdom. His body was buried secretly on the Via Aurelia by the matron Octavilla.

34:8 Let the snare which he knoweth not come upon him: and let the net which he hath hidden catch him: * and into that very snare let them fall.

37:16 For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: * thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.

38:13 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: * give ear to my tears.

38:13 Ne síleas: quóniam ádvena ego sum apud te, et peregrínus, * sicut omnes patres mei.

38:13 Be not silent: for I am a stranger with thee, * and a sojourner as all my fathers were.

De libro Apocalýpsis beáti Ioánnis Apóstoli

Lesson from the book of Revelation

Apo 4:1-5

Rev 4:1-5

1 Post hæc vidi: et ecce óstium apértum in cælo, et vox prima, quam audívi tamquam tubæ loquéntis mecum, dicens: Ascénde huc, et osténdam tibi quæ opórtet fíeri post hæc.

1 After these things I looked, and behold a door was opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard, as it were, of a trumpet speaking with me, said: Come up hither, and I will shew thee the things which must be done hereafter.

2 Et statim fui in spíritu: et ecce sedes pósita erat in cælo, et supra sedem sedens.

2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and behold there was a throne set in heaven, and upon the throne one sitting.

3 Et qui sedébat símilis erat aspéctui lápidis iáspidis, et sárdinis: et iris erat in circúitu sedis símilis visióni smarágdinæ.

3 And he that sat, was to the sight like the jasper and the sardine stone; and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.

4 Et in circúitu sedis sedília vigínti quátuor: et super thronos vigínti quátuor senióres sedéntes, circumamícti vestiméntis albis, et in capítibus eórum corónæ áureæ.

4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats; and upon the seats, four and twenty ancients sitting, clothed in white garments, and on their heads were crowns of gold.

5 Et de throno procedébant fúlgura, et voces, et tonítrua: et septem lámpades ardéntes ante thronum, qui sunt septem spíritus Dei.

5 And from the throne proceeded lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and there were seven lamps burning before the throne, which are the seven spirits of God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

* Allelúia, allelúia.

* Alleluia, Alleluia.

℣. Et erat structúra muri eius ex lápide iáspide; ipsa vero aurum mundum, símile vitro mundo.

℣. The building of the wall of it was of jasper and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.

℟. Allelúia, allelúia.

Apo 4:6-8

Rev 4:6-8

6 Et in conspéctu sedis tamquam mare vítreum símile crystállo: et in médio sedis, et in circúitu sedis quátuor animália plena óculis ante et retro.

6 And in the sight of the throne was, as it were, a sea of glass like to crystal; and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind.

7 Et ánimal primum símile leóni, et secúndum ánimal símile vítulo, et tértium ánimal habens fáciem quasi hóminis, et quartum ánimal símile áquilæ volánti.

7 And the first living creature was like a lion: and the second living creature like a calf: and the third living creature, having the face, as it were, of a man: and the fourth living creature was like an eagle flying.

8 Et quátuor animália, síngula eórum habébant alas senas: et in circúitu, et intus plena sunt óculis: et réquiem non habébant die ac nocte, dicéntia: Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus Dóminus Deus omnípotens, qui erat, et qui est, et qui ventúrus est.

8 And the four living creatures had each of them six wings; and round about and within they are full of eyes. And they rested not day and night, saying: Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.

Apo 4:9-11

Rev 4:9-11

9 Et cum darent illa animália glóriam, et honórem, et benedictiónem sedénti super thronum, vivénti in sǽcula sæculórum,

9 And when those living creatures gave glory, and honour, and benediction to him that sitteth on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever;

10 Procidébant vigínti quátuor senióres ante sedéntem in throno, et adorábant vivéntem in sǽcula sæculórum, et mittébant corónas suas ante thronum, dicéntes:

10 The four and twenty ancients fell down before him that sitteth on the throne, and adored him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying:

11 Dignus es, Dómine, Deus noster, accípere glóriam, et honórem, et virtútem: quia tu creásti ómnia, et propter voluntátem tuam erant, et creáta sunt.

11 Thou art worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory, and honour, and power: because thou hast created all things; and for thy will they were, and have been created.

Robértus, Politiánus, e patrícia Bellarminórum gente, matrem pientíssimam hábuit Cýnthiam Cervíni, Marcélli Papæ secúndi sorórem. Exímia pietáte et castíssimis móribus ornátus, duodevigínti annórum adoléscens Societátem Iesu Romæ ingréssus est, in eáque, ad mortem usque religiosárum virtútum ómnibus exémplo fuit. Post philosophíæ currículum Floréntiam primum missus, tum Montem Regálem, Patávium et Lovánium, magístri et concionatóris múnere, nondum sacérdos, mirífice functus est. Lovánii prætérea, sacerdótio auctus, theologíam ita dócuit, ut theólogus per Európam claríssimus iam tum haberétur. Romam revocátus, theológicam controversiárum disciplínam in Collégio Románo trádidit, ubi étiam, vitæ spirituális magíster constitútus, angélicum iúvenem Aloísium per sanctitátis sémitas moderátus est. A Cleménte Papa octávo, frustra relúctans, in Patrum Cardinálium númerum cooptátus, et paulo post consecrátus Epíscopus, Capuánam Archidiœcésim triénnium sanctíssime rexit; quo múnere depósito, integérrimus ac fidelíssimus Summi Pontíficis consiliárius in Urbe degit, usque dum, prope octogenárius, die décima séptima Septémbris, anno millésimo sexcentésimo vigésimo primo pie in Dómino quiévit. Præter Controversiárum volúmina multa ália præcláre scripsit, inter quæ áureus catechésis libéllus exstat insígnis. Fortíssimum hunc cathólicæ veritátis propugnatórem Pius undécimus Póntifex Máximus in Sanctórum númerum rétulit atque universális Ecclésiæ Doctórem declarávit.

Robert was born at Montepulciano of the patrician family of Bellarmine, and had a most devout mother, Cynthia Cervini, the sister of Pope Marcellus II. Outstanding for his devotion and chastity, the young man entered the Society of Jesus at the age of eighteen, and until his death he was a model of the religious virtues for all his brethren. After his course in philosophy, he was first sent to Florence, then to Monreale, Padua, and Louvain; and he filled the offices of teacher and preacher in an admirable way, even though he was not yet a priest. Later he was ordained to the priesthood at Louvain; and he taught theology in such a way as soon to be considered the most famous theologian in all Europe. Recalled to Rome, he taught apologetics in the Roman College, where he was also appointed spiritual director, and led the angelic young Aloysius along the paths of holiness. Over his protests, he was made Cardinal by Pope Clement VIII, and soon after was consecrated bishop, ruling the archdiocese of Capua for three years in a most holy way. He resigned this office to become a counsellor of the highest integrity and loyalty to the Supreme Pontiff in Rome until, when he was almost eighty years old, on the 17th day of September, 1621, he died a holy death in the Lord. Besides his polemical works he wrote many other noteworthy books, among which his little golden Catechism remaineth famous. Pope Pius XI added the name of this strong defender of the Catholic faith to the number of the Saints and declared him a Doctor of the universal Church.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

On the morrow we keep the feast of the holy Monica, the mother of blessed Augustine, to whose illustrious life he hath left unto us his witness in the 9th Book of his Confessions, and of whom mention is made upon the 4th day of this present month of May.

May 14th 2025, the 16th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Tarsi, in Cilícia, natális sancti Bonifátii Mártyris, qui, sub Diocletiáno et Maximiáno passus, deínde Romam advéctus, via Latína sepúltus est.

In Gállia sancti Póntii Mártyris, cuius prædicatióne et indústria postquam duo Philíppi Cǽsares ad Christi fidem convérsi sunt, ipse, sub Valeriáno et Galliéno Princípibus, martýrii palmam adéptus est.

Octáva Solémnitas sancti Joseph, Sponsi beátæ Maríæ Vírginis, Confessóris et universális Ecclésiæ Patróni.

In Sýria sanctórum Mártyrum Victóris et Coronæ, sub Antoníno Imperatóre; ex quibus Victor a Sebastiáno Iúdice váriis et horréndis afféctus est cruciátibus. Cum autem ipsum Coróna, uxor cuiúsdam mílitis, cœpísset beátum prædicáre ob martýrii constántiam, vidit duas corónas de cælo lapsas, unam Victóri et álteram sibi missam; cumque hoc audiéntibus cunctis testarétur, ipsa quidem inter árbores scissa, Victor vero decollátus est.

The holy martyr Boniface, who suffered in the persecution under Diocletian and Maximian at Tarsus, in Cilicia, and whose body was thence brought to Rome and buried on the Latin Way.

43:2 We have heard, O God, with our ears: * our fathers have declared to us,

43:2 Opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum, * et in diébus antíquis.

43:2 The work thou hast wrought in their days, * and in the days of old.

43:3 Manus tua gentes dispérdidit, et plantásti eos: * afflixísti pópulos, et expulísti eos.

43:3 Thy hand destroyed the Gentiles, and thou plantedst them: * thou didst afflict the people and cast them out.

43:4 Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et brácchium eórum non salvávit eos:

43:4 For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword: * neither did their own arm save them.

43:4 Sed déxtera tua, et brácchium tuum, et illuminátio vultus tui: * quóniam complacuísti in eis.

43:4 But thy right hand and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance: * because thou wast pleased with them.

43:5 Tu es ipse Rex meus et Deus meus: * qui mandas salútes Iacob.

43:5 Thou art thyself my king and my God, * who commandest the saving of Jacob.

43:6 In te inimícos nostros ventilábimus cornu: * et in nómine tuo spernémus insurgéntes in nobis.

43:7 Non enim in arcu meo sperábo: * et gládius meus non salvábit me.

43:7 For I will not trust in my bow: * neither shall my sword save me.

43:15 Thou hast made us a byword among the Gentiles: * a shaking of the head among the people.

43:16 Tota die verecúndia mea contra me est, * et confúsio faciéi meæ coopéruit me.

43:16 All the day long my shame is before me: * and the confusion of my face hath covered me.

50:19 Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum, et humiliátum, Deus, non despícies.

50:19 A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Apo 5:1-7

Rev 5:1-7

1 Et vidi in déxtera sedéntis supra thronum, librum scriptum intus et foris, signátum sigíllis septem.

1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne, a book written within and without, sealed with seven seals.

2 Et vidi ángelum fortem, prædicántem voce magna: Quis est dignus aperíre librum, et sólvere signácula eius?

2 And I saw a strong angel, proclaiming with a loud voice: Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

3 Et nemo póterat neque in cælo, neque in terra, neque subtus terram aperíre librum, neque respícere illum.

3 And no man was able, neither in heaven, nor on earth, nor under the earth, to open the book, nor to look on it.

4 Et ego flebam multum, quóniam nemo dignus invéntus est aperíre librum, nec vidére eum.

4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open the book, nor to see it.

5 Et unus de senióribus dixit mihi: Ne fléveris: ecce vicit leo de tribu Iuda, radix David, aperíre librum, et sólvere septem signácula eius.

5 And one of the ancients said to me: Weep not; behold the lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

6 Et vidi: et ecce in médio throni et quátuor animálium, et in médio seniórum, Agnum stantem tamquam occísum, habéntem córnua septem, et óculos septem: qui sunt septem spíritus Dei, missi in omnem terram.

6 And I saw: and behold in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the ancients, a Lamb standing as it were slain, having seven horns and seven eyes: which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.

7 Et venit: et accépit de déxtera sedéntis in throno librum.

7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

100:7 He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: * he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.

61:10 But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: * that by vanity they may together deceive.

5 And after these things I looked; and behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:

6 Et exiérunt septem ángeli habéntes septem plagas de templo, vestíti lino mundo et cándido, et præcíncti circa péctora zonis áureis.

6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed with clean and white linen, and girt about the breasts with golden girdles.

7 Et unum de quátuor animálibus dedit septem ángelis septem phíalas áureas, plenas iracúndiæ Dei vivéntis in sǽcula sæculórum.

7 And one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden vials, full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.

8 Et implétum est templum fumo a maiestáte Dei, et de virtúte eius: et nemo póterat introíre in templum, donec consummaréntur septem plagæ septem angelórum.

2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth, and there fell a sore and grievous wound upon men, who had the character of the beast; and upon them that adored the image thereof.

3 Et secúndus ángelus effúdit phíalam suam in mare, et factus est sanguis tamquam mórtui: et omnis ánima vivens mórtua est in mari.

3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea, and there came blood as it were of a dead man; and every living soul died in the sea.

John Baptist de La Salle was born of a noble family of Reims and as a young man studied literature and philosophy at the academy in that city. Having become a cleric, he was made a canon of Reims at the age of sixteen, and later he was received into the Sulpician seminary at Paris. After his ordination to the priesthood, he undertook the direction of the Sisters of the Child Jesus, whose work was the education of girls, and he guided and defended them most prudently. Turning his attention to the formation of boys from ordinary families in religious and good habits, after many difficulties he founded the Institute of Brothers of the Christian Schools. This institute was confirmed by Benedict XIII. John Baptist resigned his canonry, gave away his goods to the poor, and in humility also resigned the governance of the institute he had founded. Full of virtues and merits, he fell asleep in the Lord in the sixty-eighth year of his age. Pope Leo XIII first included him in the list of the Blessed and then in that of the Saints, and Pius XII appointed him the special heavenly patron of all teachers of boys and young men.

At Prague, in Bohemia, [in the year 1390,] holy John of Nepomuc, Canon of the Metropolitical Cathedral Church in that city, who, when he had been vainly tried to make him violate the seal of sacramental confession, was cast into the river Moldau, and so earned the palm of martyrdom.

Psalm 72(1-9) [1]

72:1 Quam bonus Israël Deus, * his, qui recto sunt corde!

72:1 How good is God to Israel, * to them that are of a right heart!

72:2 Mei autem pæne moti sunt pedes: * pæne effúsi sunt gressus mei.

72:2 But my feet were almost moved; * my steps had wellnigh slipped.

72:3 Quia zelávi super iníquos, * pacem peccatórum videns.

72:3 Because I had a zeal on occasion of the wicked, * seeing the prosperity of sinners.

72:4 Quia non est respéctus morti eórum: * et firmaméntum in plaga eórum.

72:4 For there is no regard to their death, * nor is there strength in their stripes.

72:5 In labóre hóminum non sunt, * et cum homínibus non flagellabúntur:

72:5 They are not in the labour of men: * neither shall they be scourged like other men.

72:6 Ídeo ténuit eos supérbia, * opérti sunt iniquitáte et impietáte sua.

72:6 Therefore pride hath held them fast: * they are covered with their iniquity and their wickedness.

72:7 Pródiit quasi ex ádipe iníquitas eórum: * transiérunt in afféctum cordis.

72:7 Their iniquity hath come forth, as it were from fatness: * they have passed into the affection of the heart.

72:8 Cogitavérunt, et locúti sunt nequítiam: * iniquitátem in excélso locúti sunt.

72:8 They have thought and spoken wickedness: * they have spoken iniquity on high.

72:9 Posuérunt in cælum os suum: * et lingua eórum transívit in terra.

72:9 They have set their mouth against heaven: * and their tongue hath passed through the earth.

℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Psalmus 72(10-17) [2]

Psalm 72(10-17) [2]

72:10 Ídeo convertétur pópulus meus hic: * et dies pleni inveniéntur in eis.

72:10 Therefore will my people return here * and full days shall be found in them.

72:11 Et dixérunt: Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in excélso?

72:11 And they said: How doth God know? * and is there knowledge in the most High?

72:12 Ecce, ipsi peccatóres, et abundántes in sǽculo, * obtinuérunt divítias.

72:12 Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.

72:13 Et dixi: Ergo sine causa iustificávi cor meum, * et lavi inter innocéntes manus meas:

72:13 And I said: Then have I in vain justified my heart, * and washed my hands among the innocent.

72:14 Et fui flagellátus tota die, * et castigátio mea in matutínis.

72:14 And I have been scourged all the day; * and my chastisement hath been in the mornings.

72:15 Si dicébam: Narrábo sic: * ecce, natiónem filiórum tuórum reprobávi.

72:15 If I said: I will speak thus; * behold I should condemn the generation of thy children.

72:16 Existimábam ut cognóscerem hoc, * labor est ante me:

72:16 I studied that I might know this thing, * it is a labour in my sight:

72:17 Donec intrem in Sanctuárium Dei: * et intéllegam in novíssimis eórum.

72:17 Until I go into the sanctuary of God, * and understand concerning their last ends.

℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

Psalmus 72(18-28) [3]

Psalm 72(18-28) [3]

72:18 Verúmtamen propter dolos posuísti eis: * deiecísti eos dum allevaréntur.

72:18 But indeed for deceits thou hast put it to them: * when they were lifted up, thou hast cast them down.

72:19 Quómodo facti sunt in desolatiónem, súbito defecérunt: * periérunt propter iniquitátem suam.

72:19 How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: * they have perished by reason of their iniquity.

72:20 Velut sómnium surgéntium, Dómine, * in civitáte tua imáginem ipsórum ad níhilum rédiges.

72:20 As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.

72:21 Quia inflammátum est cor meum, et renes mei commutáti sunt: * et ego ad níhilum redáctus sum, et nescívi.

72:21 For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.

72:23 Ut iuméntum factus sum apud te: * et ego semper tecum.

72:23 I am become as a beast before thee: * and I am always with thee.

72:24 Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me, * et cum glória suscepísti me.

72:24 Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.

72:25 Quid enim mihi est in cælo? * et a te quid vólui super terram?

72:25 For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

72:26 Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

72:26 For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: * thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever.

72:27 Quia ecce, qui elóngant se a te, períbunt: * perdidísti omnes, qui fornicántur abs te.

72:27 For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

72:28 Mihi autem adhærére Deo bonum est: * pónere in Dómino Deo spem meam:

72:28 But it is good for me to adhere to my God, * to put my hope in the Lord God:

72:28 Ut annúntiem omnes prædicatiónes tuas, * in portis fíliæ Sion.

72:28 That I may declare all thy praises, * in the gates of the daughter of Sion.

77:38 Et abundávit ut avérteret iram suam: * et non accéndit omnem iram suam:

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

78:5 How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: * shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?

Apo 19:1-5

Rev 19:1-5

1 Post hæc audívi quasi vocem turbárum multárum in cælo dicéntium: Allelúia: salus, et glória, et virtus Deo nostro est:

1 After these things I heard as it were the voice of much people in heaven, saying: Alleluia. Salvation, and glory, and power is to our God.

2 Quia vera et iusta iudícia sunt eius, qui iudicávit de meretríce magna, quæ corrúpit terram in prostitutióne sua, et vindicávit sánguinem servórum suórum de mánibus eius.

2 For true and just are his judgments, who hath judged the great harlot which corrupted the earth with her fornication, and hath revenged the blood of his servants, at her hands.

3 Et íterum dixérunt: Allelúia. Et fumus eius ascéndit in sǽcula sæculórum.

3 And again they said: Alleluia. And her smoke ascendeth for ever and ever.

4 Et cecidérunt senióres vigínti quátuor, et quátuor animália, et adoravérunt Deum sedéntem super thronum, dicéntes: Amen: allelúia.

4 And the four and twenty ancients, and the four living creatures fell down and adored God that sitteth upon the throne, saying: Amen; Alleluia.

5 Et vox de throno exívit, dicens: Laudem dícite Deo nostro omnes servi eius: et qui timétis eum pusílli et magni.

5 And a voice came out from the throne, saying: Give praise to our God, all ye his servants; and you that fear him, little and great.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Locútus est ad me unus ex septem Angelis, dicens: Veni, osténdam tibi novam nuptam, sponsam Agni:

℟. One of the seven Angels talked with me, saying: Come hither, I will show thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.

* Et vidi Ierúsalem descendéntem de cælo, ornátam monílibus suis, allelúia, allelúia, allelúia.

* And I saw Jerusalem descending out of heaven, adorned with her jewels. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

℣. Et sústulit me in spíritu in montem magnum et altum.

Apo 19:6-10

Rev 19:6-10

6 Et audívi quasi vocem turbæ magnæ, et sicut vocem aquárum multárum, et sicut vocem tonitruórum magnórum, dicéntium: Allelúia: quóniam regnávit Dóminus Deus noster omnípotens.

6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of great thunders, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord our God the Almighty hath reigned.

7 Gaudeámus, et exsultémus: et demus glóriam ei: quia venérunt núptiæ Agni, et uxor eius præparávit se.

7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give glory to him; for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath prepared herself.

8 Et datum est illi ut coopériat se býssino splendénti et cándido. Býssinum enim iustificatiónes sunt sanctórum.

8 And it is granted to her that she should clothe herself with fine linen, glittering and white. For the fine linen are the justifications of saints.

9 Et dixit mihi: Scribe: Beáti qui ad cœnam nuptiárum Agni vocáti sunt; et dixit mihi: Hæc verba Dei vera sunt.

9 And he said to me: Write: Blessed are they that are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith to me: These words of God are true.

10 Et cécidi ante pedes eius, ut adorárem eum. Et dicit mihi: Vide ne féceris: consérvus tuus sum, et fratrum tuórum habéntium testimónium Iesu. Deum adóra. Testimónium enim Iesu est spíritus prophetíæ.

10 And I fell down before his feet, to adore him. And he saith to me: See thou do it not: I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren, who have the testimony of Jesus. Adore God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

11 Et vidi cælum apértum, et ecce equus albus, et qui sedébat super eum, vocabátur Fidélis, et Verax, et cum iustítia iúdicat et pugnat.

11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called faithful and true, and with justice doth he judge and fight.

12 Oculi autem eius sicut flamma ignis, et in cápite eius diadémata multa, habens nomen scriptum, quod nemo novit nisi ipse.

12 And his eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many diadems, and he had a name written, which no man knoweth but himself.

13 Et vestítus erat veste aspérsa sánguine: et vocátur nomen eius: Verbum Dei.

13 And he was clothed with a garment sprinkled with blood; and his name is called, the Word of God.

14 Et exércitus qui sunt in cælo, sequebántur eum in equis albis, vestíti býssino albo et mundo.

14 And the armies that are in heaven followed him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

15 Et de ore eius procédit gládius ex utráque parte acútus, ut in ipso percútiat gentes. Et ipse reget eas in virga férrea: et ipse calcat tórcular vini furóris iræ Dei omnipoténtis.

15 And out of his mouth proceedeth a sharp two edged sword; that with it he may strike the nations. And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of God the Almighty.

16 Et habet in vestiménto et in fémore suo scriptum: Rex regum et Dóminus dominántium.

16 And he hath on his garment, and on his thigh written: King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.

Ubáldus, Eugúbii in Umbria nóbili génere natus, a primis annis pietáte et lítteris egrégie est institútus; iamque adoléscens, ut uxórem dúceret, sæpe tentátus, nunquam tamen a propósito servándæ virginitátis recéssit. Sacérdos efféctus, patrimónium suum paupéribus et ecclésiis distríbuit. Canonicórum regulárium órdinis sancti Augustíni institútum suscípiens, illud in pátriam tránstulit. Ab Honório secúndo summo Pontífice ecclésiæ Eugubínæ invítus præfícitur, et episcopális consecratiónis múnere decorátur. Factus forma gregis ex ánimo, de consuéta vivéndi ratióne nihil ádmodum immutávit, et in omni virtútum génere enítuit. Diútius infirmitátibus afflíctus, Deo indesinénter grátias agébat. Cum multis annis ecclésiam sibi commíssam summa cum laude gubernásset, sanctis opéribus et miráculis clarus, quiévit in pace.

St. Ubald was born of a noble family at Gubbio in Umbria, and was well trained, from his earliest years, in devotion and in letters. As a young man, he was often urged to marry, but he never gave up his determination to preserve his virginity. When he was made a priest, he distributed his patrimony to the poor and to churches. He entered the Institute of the Canons Regular of St. Augustine and brought it to his own country. Against his will, he was put over the Church of Gubbio by Pope Honorius II and given episcopal consecration. Making himself with his whole heart a model for his flock, he changed nothing in his way of life and became illustrious for every kind of virtue. Although he suffered from various infirmities for a long time, he never ceased to give thanks to God. When he had governed the Church entrusted to him for many years in a way deserving of the highest praise, he fell asleep in peace, famous for his works and miracles.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Sextodécimo Kaléndas Iúnii Luna undevicésima Anno Dómini 2025

May 17th 2025, the 19th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Apud Villam Regálem, in Hispánia, sancti Paschális, ex Ordine Minórum, Confessóris, miræ innocentiæ et pæniténtiæ viri; quem Leo Papa Décimus tértius cæléstem eucharisticórum Cóetuum et Societátum a sanctíssima Eucharístia Patrónum declarávit.

At Villa Real, in the kingdom of Valencia, the holy Paschal, of the Order of Friars Minors, a man of wonderful innocency, and wonderful contrition.

Noviodúni, in Gálliis, sanctórum Mártyrum Herádii, Pauli et Aquilíni, cum duóbus áliis.

At Pisa, in Tuscany, is commemorated the holy martyr Torpes. He was a great official in the house of Nero, and was one of those of whom the Apostle Paul writeth from the city of Rome unto the Philippians (iv. 22,) "All the Saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar's household." But later on, at the command of Satellicus, because of his belief in Christ, he was buffeted, grievously scourged, and thrown to beasts to be devoured; but he was not hurt thereby, and finished his testimony by being beheaded, upon the 29th day of April; but his feast day is kept upon the 17th day of May on account of the translation of his body.

Chalcedóne sanctórum Mártyrum Solochónis et Sociórum mílitum, sub Maximiáno Imperatóre.

On the same day, the holy Virgin and martyr Restituta. In the reign of the Emperor Valerian, Proculus, the judge in Africa, caused her to be tortured in diverse ways, and put into a ship with pitch and tow that she might burn on the sea, but when fire was put to it the flame turned upon them that kindled it. Restituta gave up her spirit to God in prayer, and, by the will of God, the ship containing her body came to shore in the island of Ischia, near Naples, where her remains were received with great worship by the Christians. In after-days the Emperor Constantine the Great caused a church to be built in her honour at Naples.

Alexandríæ sanctórum Mártyrum Adriónis, Victóris et Basíllæ.

At Noyon, [in the reign of the Emperor Diocletian,] the holy martyrs Heradius, Paul, and Aquilinus, along with two others.

Eódem die sanctæ Restitútæ, Vírginis et Mártyris; quæ, in Africa, Valeriáno imperánte, a Próculo Iúdice várie torta, et in navículam pice et stupa refértam, ut in mari comburerétur, impósita, tandem, cum in incensóres, immisso igne, flamma converterétur, in oratióne spíritum Deo réddidit. Ipsíus corpus cum eádem navícula, Dei nutu, ad Ænáriam ínsulam, prope Neápolim, in Campánia, devéctum est, et a Christiánis magna veneratióne suscéptum; ac póstmodum in eius honórem Constantínus Magnus Basílicam in ipsa urbe Neápoli erigéndam curávit.

At Chalcedon, under the Emperor Maximian, the holy martyrs Solochan, and the soldiers, his Companions.

℣. Et álibi aliórum plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum et Confessórum, atque sanctárum Vírginum.

At Alexandria, the holy martyrs Adrion, Victor, and Basilla.

℟. Deo grátias.

At Wurzburg, [in the year 1045,] the holy Confessor Bruno, Bishop [of that see.]

℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.

℣. Pretiósa in conspéctu Dómini.

℣. Precious in the sight of the Lord

℟. Mors Sanctórum eius.

℟. Is the death of his saints.

Sancta María et omnes Sancti intercédant pro nobis ad Dóminum, ut nos mereámur ab eo adiuvári et salvári, qui vivit et regnat in sǽcula sæculórum.

Holy Mary and all the Saints, intercede for us with the Lord, our God, so that we may merit His help and salvation, who lives and reigns for ever and ever.

138:14 I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: † wonderful are thy works, * and my soul knoweth right well.

138:16 Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, † and in thy book all shall be written: * days shall be formed, and no one in them.

138:17 But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: * their principality is exceedingly strengthened.

138:19 If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: * ye men of blood, depart from me:

138:20 Quia dícitis in cogitatióne: * Accípient in vanitáte civitátes tuas.

1 Et osténdit mihi flúvium aquæ vitæ, spléndidum tamquam crystállum, procedéntem de sede Dei et Agni.

1 And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.

2 In médio platéæ eius, et ex utráque parte flúminis, lignum vitæ, áfferens fructus duódecim per menses síngulos, reddens fructum suum et fólia ligni ad sanitátem géntium.

2 In the midst of the street thereof, and on both sides of the river, was the tree of life, bearing twelve fruits, yielding its fruits every month, and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

3 Et omne maledíctum non erit ámplius: sed sedes Dei et Agni in illa erunt, et servi eius sérvient illi.

3 And there shall be no curse any more; but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall serve him.

4 Et vidébunt fáciem eius: et nomen eius in fróntibus eórum.

4 And they shall see his face: and his name shall be on their foreheads.

5 Et nox ultra non erit: et non egébunt lúmine lucérnæ, neque lúmine solis, quóniam Dóminus Deus illuminábit illos, et regnábunt in sǽcula sæculórum.

5 And night shall be no more: and they shall not need the light of the lamp, nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God shall enlighten them, and they shall reign for ever and ever.

6 Et dixit mihi: Hæc verba fidelíssima sunt, et vera. Et Dóminus Deus spirítuum prophetárum misit ángelum suum osténdere servis suis quæ opórtet fíeri cito.

6 And he said to me: These words are most faithful and true. And the Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to show his servants the things which must be done shortly.

8 And I, John, who have heard and seen these things. And after I had heard and seen, I fell down to adore before the feet of the angel, who showed me these things.

Paschális Baylon, paupéribus piísque paréntibus in óppido Turris Formósæ in Aragónia natus puerítiam atque adolescéntiam in gregis custódia transégit. Póstea severióris vitæ institútum ampléxus, et órdini fratrum Minórum adscríptus, iúgiter cogitábat, qua se ratióne magis magísque Christo crucifíxo conformáret. Deíparam Vírginem, cuius clientélæ se ab ineúnte ætáte dicáverat, tamquam matrem filiálibus et cotidiánis obséquiis colébat. Erga Eucharístiam ténero et assíduo flagrávit devotiónis afféctu, quem defúnctus étiam retinére visus est, dum iacens in féretro, ad sacræ Hóstiæ elevatiónem bis óculos reserávit et clausit, magna ómnium, qui áderant, admiratióne. Méritis plenus migrávit ad Dóminum, anno millésimo quingentésimo nonagésimo secúndo. Eum Leo décimus tértius peculiárem cœ́tuum eucharisticórum, societatúmque ómnium a sanctíssima Eucharístia patrónum cæléstem declarávit et constítuit.

Paschal Baylon was born of poor and devout parents in the town of Torre Hermosa in Aragon, and spent his boyhood and youth in herding sheep. When he had embraced an austere way of life by entering the Friars Minor, he thought ceaselessly of how he might conform ever more closely to Christ crucified. With daily filial devotion he honoured as mother the Virgin Mother of God, to whom he had consecrated himself from his earliest years. He burned with a tender and steady love for the Eucharist, a love which he manifested even in death, when, lying on his bier, he opened and closed his eyes twice at the elevation of the sacred Host, to the astonishment of all present. Full of merits, he went to the Lord in the year 1592. Leo XIII declared and appointed him the special heavenly patron of all Eucharistic congresses and of all associations in honour of the most holy Eucharist.

9:22 Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? * why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?

9:23 Dum supérbit ímpius, incénditur pauper: * comprehendúntur in consíliis quibus cógitant.

9:23 Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: * they are caught in the counsels which they devise.

9:24 Quóniam laudátur peccátor in desidériis ánimæ suæ: * et iníquus benedícitur.

9:24 For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: * and the unjust man is blessed.

9:25 Exacerbávit Dóminum peccátor, * secúndum multitúdinem iræ suæ non quæret.

9:25 The sinner hath provoked the Lord, * according to the multitude of his wrath he will not seek him.

9:26 God is not before his eyes: * his ways are filthy at all times.

9:26 Auferúntur iudícia tua a fácie eius: * ómnium inimicórum suórum dominábitur.

9:26 Thy judgments are removed from his sight: * he shall rule over all his enemies.

9:27 Dixit enim in corde suo: * Non movébor a generatióne in generatiónem sine malo.

9:27 For he hath said in his heart: * I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.

9:28 Cuius maledictióne os plenum est, et amaritúdine, et dolo: * sub lingua eius labor et dolor.

9:28 His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: * under his tongue are labour and sorrow.

9:30 His eyes are upon the poor man: * he lieth in wait, in secret, like a lion in his den.

9:30 Insidiátur ut rápiat páuperem: * rápere páuperem, dum áttrahit eum.

9:30 He lieth in ambush, that he may catch the poor man: * so catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.

9:31 In láqueo suo humiliábit eum: * inclinábit se, et cadet, cum dominátus fúerit páuperum.

9:31 In his net he will bring him down, * he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.

9:32 Dixit enim in corde suo: Oblítus est Deus, * avértit fáciem suam ne vídeat in finem.

10:3 Quóniam ecce peccatóres intendérunt arcum, † paravérunt sagíttas suas in pháretra, * ut sagíttent in obscúro rectos corde.

10:3 For, lo, the wicked have bent their bow: † they have prepared their arrows in the quiver, * to shoot in the dark the upright of heart.

10:4 Quóniam quæ perfecísti, destruxérunt: * iustus autem quid fecit?

10:4 For they have destroyed the things which thou hast made: * but what has the just man done?

1 James the servant of God, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

2 Omne gáudium existimáte fratres mei, cum in tentatiónes várias incidéritis:

2 My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into diverse temptations;

3 Sciéntes quod probátio fídei vestræ patiéntiam operátur.

3 Knowing that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

4 Patiéntia autem opus perféctum habet: ut sitis perfécti et íntegri in nullo deficiéntes.

4 And patience hath a perfect work; that you may be perfect and entire, failing in nothing.

5 Si quis autem vestrum índiget sapiéntia, póstulet a Deo, qui dat ómnibus affluénter, et non impróperat: et dábitur ei.

5 But if any of you want wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men abundantly, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

6 Póstulet autem in fide nihil hǽsitans:

Ias 1:6-11

Jas 1:6-11

6 Qui enim hǽsitat, símilis est flúctui maris, qui a vento movétur et circumfértur:

6 For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea, which is moved and carried about by the wind.

7 Non ergo ǽstimet homo ille quod accípiat áliquid a Dómino.

7 Therefore let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

8 Vir duplex ánimo incónstans est in ómnibus viis suis.

8 A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways.

9 Gloriétur autem frater húmilis in exaltatióne sua:

9 But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation:

10 Dives autem in humilitáte sua, quóniam sicut flos fœni transíbit;

10 And the rich, in his being low; because as the flower of the grass shall he pass away.

11 Exórtus est enim sol cum ardóre, et arefécit fœnum, et flos eius décidit, et decor vultus eius depériit: ita et dives in itinéribus suis marcéscet.

11 For the sun rose with a burning heat, and parched the grass, and the flower thereof fell off, and the beauty of the shape thereof perished: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.

Jas 1:12-16

12 Beátus vir qui suffert tentatiónem: quóniam cum probátus fúerit, accípiet corónam vitæ, quam repromísit Deus diligéntibus se.

12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been proved, he shall receive a crown of life, which God hath promised to them that love him.

13 Nemo cum tentátur, dicat quóniam a Deo tentátur: Deus enim intentátor malórum est: ipse autem néminem tentat.

13 Let no man, when he is tempted, say that he is tempted by God. For God is not a tempter of evils, and he tempteth no man.

14 Unusquísque vero tentátur a concupiscéntia sua abstráctus, et illéctus.

14 But every man is tempted by his own concupiscence, being drawn away and allured.

15 Deínde concupiscéntia cum concéperit, parit peccátum: peccátum vero cum consummátum fúerit, génerat mortem.

15 Then when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death.

16 Nolíte ítaque erráre, fratres mei dilectíssimi.

16 Do not err, therefore, my dearest brethren.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 16:5-14

John 16:5-14

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Vado ad eum qui misit me; et nemo ex vobis intérrogat me, Quo vadis? Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus said unto His disciples: I go My way to Him That sent Me, and none of you asketh Me: Whither goest Thou? And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo

Tractatus 94 in Ioannem, initio

94th Tract on John

Cum Dóminus Iesus prædixísset discípulis suis persecutiónes, quas passúri erant post eius abscéssum, subiúnxit atque ait: Hæc autem vobis ab inítio non dixi, quia vobíscum eram: nunc autem vado ad eum, qui me misit. Ubi primum vidéndum est, utrum eis futúras non prædíxerit ante passiónes. Sed álii tres Evangelístæ satis eum prædixísse ista demónstrant, ántequam ventum esset ad cenam: qua perácta, secúndum Ioánnem ista locútus est, ubi ait: Hæc autem vobis ab inítio non dixi, quia vobíscum eram.

The Lord Jesus told His disciples what things they should suffer after that He was gone away from them, and then He said: “These things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you; but now I go My way to Him That sent Me.” Let us first see whether it had been that He had not told them before this what they were to suffer in time coming. That He had done so amply before the night of the last Supper, is testified by the three first Evangelists, but it was when that Supper was ended that, according to John, He said: “These things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.”

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Quartodécimo Kaléndas Iúnii Luna vicésima prima Anno Dómini 2025

May 19th 2025, the 21st day of the Moon,

Natális sancti Petri de Moróno Confessóris, qui, ex Anachoréta Summus Póntifex creátus, dictus est Cæléstinus Quintus. Sed Pontificátu se póstmodum abdicávit, et in solitúdine religiósam vitam agens, virtútibus et miráculis clarus, migrávit ad Dóminum.

On the morrow we keep the feast of holy Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury.

Romæ sanctæ Pudentiánæ Vírginis, quæ, post innúmeros agónes, post multórum Mártyrum venerabíliter exhíbitas sepultúras, post omnes facultátes suas pro Christo paupéribus erogátas, tandem de terris ad cælos migrávit.

On the same 19th day of May, were born into the better life:

Ibídem sancti Pudéntis Senatóris, qui eiúsdem sanctæ Pudentiánæ ac sanctæ item Praxédis Vírginis fuit pater; atque, ab Apóstolis Christo in baptísmo vestítus, innocéntem túnicam usque ad vitæ corónam immaculáte custodívit.

Item Romæ, via Appia, natális sanctórum Calóceri et Parthénii eunuchórum; quorum prior, cum esset præpósitus cubículi uxóris Décii Imperatóris, postérior vero altérius múneris primicérius, et ambo nollent idólis sacrificáre, idcírco, eiúsdem Imperatóris iussu váriis ac diris sunt excruciáti supplíciis, ac tandem, cervícibus ardénti fuste contúsis, spíritum Deo tradidérunt.

Holy Peter Morone, who was a hermit when he was created Supreme Pontiff, and was called Celestine V. He resigned the Papacy and led a religious life in solitude, and so, famous for graces and wonders, passed away, [in the year 1296,] to be for ever with the Lord. His feast we keep upon the 21st day of this same month of May.

Nicomedíæ sancti Philóteri Mártyris, qui Paciáni Procónsulis fílius éxstitit, et sub Diocletiáno Imperatóre, multa passus, martýrii corónam accépit.

At Rome, the holy Virgin Pudentiana, who, after countless contendings, after worshipfully burying many martyrs, and after distributing all her goods to feed the poor for Christ's sake, at length passed from earth to heaven.

Ibídem sanctárum sex Vírginum et Mártyrum, quarum præcípua erat Cyríaca, quæ, cum líbere Maximiánum impietátis obiurgásset, diríssime cæsa et dilaniáta est, atque ad últimum, igne cremáta, martýrium consummávit.

There also the holy Senator Pudens, the father of the said virgin. He put on Christ in baptism by the ministry of the Apostles, and kept his robe in innocency undefiled till he received the crown of life.

Cantuáriæ, in Anglia, sancti Dunstáni Epíscopi.

At Rome also, upon the Appian Way, the holy eunuchs Calocerus and Parthenius. Calocerus was master of the bed-chamber to the wife of the Emperor Decius, and Parthenius was one of the chief officers of the court, and Decius slew them both because they would not sacrifice to idols.

Lohanéti, in Británnia minóre, sancti Ivónis, Presbýteri et Confessóris; qui, pro Christi amóre, causas pupillórum, viduárum ac páuperum defendébat.

At Nicomedia, the holy martyr Philoter, son of the Pro-Consul Pacian, who suffered much under the Emperor Diocletian, and received the crown of martyrdom.

Ficécli, in Etrúria, sancti Theóphili a Curte, Confessóris, Sacerdótis Ordinis Fratrum Minórum, sacrórum recéssuum propagatóris, quem Pius Papa Undécimus inter Sanctos rétulit.

There also six holy Virgin martyrs, of whom the chiefest was Cyriaca, who boldly rebuked Maximian for his wickedness, and therefore was most direfully rent and torn, and at last burnt with fire.

℣. Et álibi aliórum plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum et Confessórum, atque sanctárum Vírginum.

In Brittany, [in the year 1303,] the holy Priest and Confessor Yves, who for the love of Christ pled the cause of orphans, widows, and the poor.

℟. Deo grátias.

℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.

℟. Thanks be to God.

13:1 They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: * there is none that doth good, no not one.

13:2 The Lord hath looked down from heaven upon the children of men, * to see if there be any that understand and seek God.

13:3 Their throat is an open sepulchre; † with their tongues they acted deceitfully: * the poison of asps is under their lips.

13:6 Quóniam Dóminus in generatióne iusta est, † consílium ínopis confudístis: * quóniam Dóminus spes eius est.

13:6 For the Lord is in the just generation: † you have confounded the counsel of the poor man; * but the Lord is his hope.

De Epístola beáti Iacóbi Apóstoli

Lesson from the letter of St. James the Apostle

Ias 1:17-20

Jas 1:17-20

17 Omne datum óptimum, et omne donum perféctum desúrsum est, descéndens a Patre lúminum, apud quem non est transmutátio, nec vicissitúdinis obumbrátio.

17 Every best gift, and every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change, nor shadow of alteration.

18 Voluntárie enim génuit nos verbo veritátis, ut simus inítium áliquod creatúræ eius.

18 For of his own will hath he begotten us by the word of truth, that we might be some beginning of his creatures.

19 Scitis, fratres mei dilectíssimi. Sit autem omnis homo velox ad audiéndum: tardus autem ad loquéndum, et tardus ad iram.

19 You know, my dearest brethren. And let every man be swift to hear, but slow to speak, and slow to anger.

20 Ira enim viri iustítiam Dei non operátur.

20 For the anger of man worketh not the justice of God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Ias 1:21-24

Jas 1:21-24

21 Propter quod abiciéntes omnem immundítiam, et abundántiam malítiæ, in mansuetúdine suscípite ínsitum verbum, quod potest salváre ánimas vestras.

21 Wherefore casting away all uncleanness, and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

22 Estóte autem factóres verbi, et non auditóres tantum: falléntes vosmetípsos.

22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

23 Quia si quis audítor est verbi, et non factor, hic comparábitur viro consideránti vultum nativitátis suæ in spéculo:

23 For if a man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass.

24 Considerávit enim se, et ábiit, et statim oblítus est qualis fúerit.

24 For he beheld himself, and went his way, and presently forgot what manner of man he was.

Ias 1:25-27

Jas 1:25-27

25 Qui autem perspéxerit in legem perféctam libertátis, et permánserit in ea, non audítor obliviósus factus, sed factor óperis: hic beátus in facto suo erit.

25 But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty, and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work; this man shall be blessed in his deed.

26 Si quis autem putat se religiósum esse, non refrénans linguam suam, sed sedúcens cor suum, huius vana est relígio.

26 And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

27 Relígio munda et immaculáta apud Deum et Patrem, hæc est: visitáre pupíllos et víduas in tribulatióne eórum, et immaculátum se custodíre ab hoc sǽculo.

27 Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father, is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation: and to keep one's self unspotted from this world.

Reading 3

Petrus, a nómine quo Póntifex est appellátus, Cælestínus dictus, honéstis catholicísque paréntibus Æsérniæ in Samnítibus natus, adolescéntiam vix ingréssus, ut ánimum a mundi illécebris custodíret, in solitúdinem secéssit. Ibi contemplatiónibus mentem nútriens, corpus in servitútem rédigens, férream caténam ad nudam carnem adhibébat. Congregatiónem, quæ póstea, Cælestinórum dicta est, sub régula sancti Benedícti instítuit. Hinc, quasi lucérna supra candelábrum pósita, cum abscóndi nequíret, (Romána Ecclésia diu viduáta pastóre) in Petri Cáthedram ignórans et absens adscítus, magna novitátis admiratióne non minus quam repentíno gáudio cunctos affécit. Cum autem in pontificátus sublimitáte collocátus, váriis disténtus curis, assuétis incúmbere meditatiónibus vix posse cognósceret, óneri páriter et honóri voluntárie cessit. Indeque priscam vitæ ratiónem répetens, obdormívit in Dómino, eiúsque pretiósam mortem crux præfúlgens in áëre ante cubículi óstium réddidit ámplius gloriósam. Miráculis multis tam vivens quam post óbitum cláruit; quibus rite examinátis, Clemens quintus anno postquam decéssit undécimo, eum Sanctórum número adscrípsit.

Peter, who is called Peter Celestine, because when he became Pope he did so under the title of Celestine V, was the son of respectable Catholic parents, and was born at Isernia in Apulia. He was hardly entered on boyhood, when he withdrew into a desert, in order to keep his soul safe from the snares of the world. In solitude he fed his mind with heavenly meditation, and brought his body into subjection, even by wearing an iron chain next to his bare flesh. He founded, under the Rule of St. Benedict, that congregation which was afterwards known as the Celestines. His light, as of a candle set upon a candlestick, could not be kept hidden, and after the Church of Rome had for a long while been widowed of a shepherd, he was chosen without his knowledge and in his absence, to fill the chair of Peter. The news of his election filled himself with as great amazement, as it did all others with sudden joy. When, however, he was seated in the exalted place of the Papal dignity, he found that the many cares by which he was beset made it well-nigh impossible for him to give himself to his accustomed meditations; of his own free will, he resigned the burden and the honor together; and, while he sought to return to his old way of life, he fell asleep in the Lord. How precious his death was in his sight was gloriously manifested by a Cross which appeared shining in the air before the door of the cell. He was illustrious for miracles both during his life and after his death, and when these had been duly investigated, Clement V, in the eleventh year after his departure hence, enrolled his name among those of the Saints.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

37:4 There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath: * there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.

37:16 Quóniam in te, Dómine, sperávi: * tu exáudies me, Dómine, Deus meus.

37:16 For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: * thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.

37:17 Quia dixi: Nequándo supergáudeant mihi inimíci mei: * et dum commovéntur pedes mei, super me magna locúti sunt.

37:17 For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: * and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.

38:5 Et númerum diérum meórum quis est: * ut sciam quid desit mihi.

38:5 And what is the number of my days: * that I may know what is wanting to me.

38:6 Ecce mensurábiles posuísti dies meos: * et substántia mea tamquam níhilum ante te.

38:6 Behold thou hast made my days measurable: * and my substance is as nothing before thee.

38:6 Verúmtamen univérsa vánitas, * omnis homo vivens.

38:6 And indeed all things are vanity: * every man living.

38:7 Verúmtamen in imágine pertránsit homo: * sed et frustra conturbátur.

38:7 Surely man passeth as an image: * yea, and he is disquieted in vain.

38:7 Thesaurízat: * et ignórat cui congregábit ea.

38:7 He storeth up: * and he knoweth not for whom he shall gather these things.

38:8 Et nunc quæ est exspectátio mea? Nonne Dóminus? * Et substántia mea apud te est.

38:8 And now what is my hope? Is it not the Lord? * And my substance is with thee.

38:9 Ab ómnibus iniquitátibus meis érue me: * oppróbrium insipiénti dedísti me.

38:9 Deliver thou me from all my iniquities: * thou hast made me a reproach to the fool.

38:10 Obmútui, et non apérui os meum, quóniam tu fecísti: * ámove a me plagas tuas.

38:10 I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it: * remove thy scourges from me.

38:12 A fortitúdine manus tuæ ego deféci in increpatiónibus: * propter iniquitátem corripuísti hóminem.

38:12 The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes: * thou hast corrected man for iniquity.

38:12 Et tabéscere fecísti sicut aráneam ánimam eius: * verúmtamen vane conturbátur omnis homo.

38:12 And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: * surely in vain is any man disquieted.

38:13 Exáudi oratiónem meam, Dómine, et deprecatiónem meam: * áuribus pércipe lácrimas meas.

38:13 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: * give ear to my tears.

38:13 Ne síleas: quóniam ádvena ego sum apud te, et peregrínus, * sicut omnes patres mei.

38:13 Be not silent: for I am a stranger with thee, * and a sojourner as all my fathers were.

Lesson from the letter of St. James the Apostle

Ias 2:1-4

Jas 2:1-4

1 Fratres mei, nolíte in personárum acceptióne habére fidem Dómini nostri Iesu Christi glóriæ.

1 My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with respect of persons. For if there shall come into your assembly a man having a golden ring, in fine apparel, and there shall come in also a poor man in mean attire,

2 Etenim si introíerit in convéntum vestrum vir áureum ánnulum habens in veste cándida, introíerit autem et pauper in sórdido hábitu,

3 And you have respect to him that is clothed with the fine apparel, and shall say to him: Sit thou here well; but say to the poor man: Stand thou there, or sit under my footstool:

3 Et intendátis in eum qui indútus est veste præclára, et dixéritis ei: Tu sede hic bene: páuperi autem dicátis: Tu sta illic; aut sede sub scabéllo pedum meórum:

4 Do you not judge within yourselves, and are become judges of unjust thoughts?

4 Nonne iudicátis apud vosmetípsos, et facti estis iúdices cogitatiónum iniquárum?

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Ias 2:5-9

Jas 2:5-9

5 Audíte, fratres mei dilectíssimi: nonne Deus elégit páuperes in hoc mundo, dívites in fide, et hærédes regni, quod repromísit Deus diligéntibus se?

5 Hearken, my dearest brethren: hath not God chosen the poor in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to them that love him?

6 Vos autem exhonorástis páuperem. Nonne dívites per poténtiam ópprimunt vos, et ipsi trahunt vos ad iudícia?

6 But you have dishonoured the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you by might? and do not they draw you before the judgment seats?

7 Nonne ipsi blasphémant bonum nomen, quod invocátum est super vos?

7 Do not they blaspheme the good name that is invoked upon you?

8 Si tamen legem perfícitis regálem secúndum Scriptúras: Díliges próximum tuum sicut teípsum: bene fácitis:

8 If then you fulfill the royal law, according to the scriptures, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself; you do well.

9 Si autem persónas accípitis, peccátum operámini, redargúti a lege quasi transgressóres.

9 But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin, being reproved by the law as transgressors.

Ias 2:10-13

Jas 2:10-13

10 Quicúmque autem totam legem serváverit, offéndat autem in uno, factus est ómnium reus.

10 And whosoever shall keep the whole law, but offend in one point, is become guilty of all.

11 Qui enim dixit: Non mœcháberis, dixit et: Non occídes. Quod si non mœcháberis, occídes autem, factus es transgréssor legis.

11 For he that said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt not kill. Now if thou do not commit adultery, but shalt kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

12 Sic loquímini, et sic fácite sicut per legem libertátis incipiéntes iudicári.

12 So speak ye, and so do, as being to be judged by the law of liberty.

13 Iudícium enim sine misericórdia illi qui non fecit misericórdiam: superexáltat autem misericórdia iudícium.

13 For judgment without mercy to him that hath not done mercy. And mercy exalteth itself above judgment

Bernardínus Albizésca, nóbili Senénsi família ortus, inter prima grammáticæ stúdia, negléctis puerílibus ludis, pietátis opéribus ánimum inténdit, beátæ Vírginis cúltui præcípue addíctus. Caritáte et misericórdia in páuperes insígnis, eórum servítio Senis in hospitáli beátæ Maríæ de Scala se mancipávit. De capesséndo religiósæ vitæ institúto delíberans, Deo sic disponénte, beáti Francísci órdinem præ céteris optávit, in quo humilitáte, patiéntia, aliísque religiósi hóminis virtútibus excélluit. Prædicándi ónere a superióribus suscépto, cum se minus idóneum agnósceret ob vocis exilitátem et raucitátem, Dei ope imploráta, prodigióse ab hoc impediménto liberátus est. Urbes atque óppida concúrsans, in nómine Iesu, quem semper in ore et péctore gerébat, cívium ubíque discórdias exstínxit, et collápsam pietátem morésque verbo et exémplo magna ex parte restítuit. Libros pie doctéque conscrípsit. Plenus méritis et miráculis clarus, annos natus sex ac sexagínta, in urbe Aquila in Vestínis, beáto fine quiévit.

St. Bernardine Albizeschi was born of a noble family of Siena. Even in his first years in school, he turned away from children's games and applied himself to exercises of devotion, especially those honouring the Blessed Virgin. Outstanding for his charity and mercy to the poor, he gave himself over to serving them at the hospital Santa Maria della Scala in Siena. When he came to think of entering the religious life, divine Providence led him to choose, in preference to others, the Franciscan Order, where he excelled in humility, patience, and the other virtues of a religious. His superiors imposed on him the duty of preaching; and, although he knew that his voice was too weak and too hoarse for a preacher's, he accepted the charge and implored the help of God. As a result, he was marvellously freed of his handicap. Going about the towns and villages in the Name of Jesus, which was always carried on his lips and in his heart, he everywhere put an end to the dissensions of the citizens, and by his word and example did much to restore their piety and morality, which had fallen to a low level. He also wrote devout and learned books. At the age of sixty-six, rich in merit and famous for his miracles, he died a happy death at the town of L'Aquila in the Abruzzi.

43:4 Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et brácchium eórum non salvávit eos:

43:4 For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword: * neither did their own arm save them.

11:2 Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: * truths are decayed from among the children of men.

11:7 Elóquia Dómini, elóquia casta: * argéntum igne examinátum, probátum terræ purgátum séptuplum.

11:7 The words of the Lord are pure words: * as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth, refined seven times.

11:8 Tu, Dómine, servábis nos: et custódies nos * a generatióne hac in ætérnum.

11:8 Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us: and keep us * from this generation for ever.

12:4 Enlighten my eyes that I never sleep in death: * lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him.

15:1 Preserve me, O Lord, for I have put my trust in thee. † I have said to the Lord, thou art my God, * for thou hast no need of my goods.

15:3 Sanctis, qui sunt in terra eius, * mirificávit omnes voluntátes meas in eis.

Ias 2:23-26

Jas 2:23-26

23 Et suppléta est Scriptúra, dicens: Crédidit Abraham Deo, et reputátum est illi ad iustítiam, et amícus Dei appellátus est.

23 And the scripture was fulfilled, saying: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him to justice, and he was called the friend of God.

24 Vidétis quóniam ex opéribus iustificátur homo, et non ex fide tantum?

24 Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only?

25 Simíliter et Rahab méretrix, nonne ex opéribus iustificáta est, suscípiens núntios, et ália via eíciens?

25 And in like manner also Rahab the harlot, was not she justified by works, receiving the messengers, and sending them out another way?

26 Sicut enim corpus sine spíritu mórtuum est, ita et fides sine opéribus mórtua est.

26 For even as the body without the spirit is dead; so also faith without works is dead.

25:7 Ut áudiam vocem laudis, * et enárrem univérsa mirabília tua.

25:7 That I may hear the voice of thy praise: * and tell of all thy wondrous works.

25:8 Dómine, diléxi decórem domus tuæ, * et locum habitatiónis glóriæ tuæ.

25:8 I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; * and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

Psalm 51 [2]

51:4 Tota die iniustítiam cogitávit lingua tua: * sicut novácula acúta fecísti dolum.

51:4 All the day long thy tongue hath devised injustice: * as a sharp razor, thou hast wrought deceit.

51:5 Dilexísti malítiam super benignitátem: * iniquitátem magis quam loqui æquitátem.

51:5 Thou hast loved malice more than goodness: * and iniquity rather than to speak righteousness.

51:6 Dilexísti ómnia verba præcipitatiónis, * lingua dolósa.

51:6 Thou hast loved all the words of ruin, * O deceitful tongue.

51:7 Proptérea Deus déstruet te in finem, * evéllet te, et emigrábit te de tabernáculo tuo: et radícem tuam de terra vivéntium.

51:7 Therefore will God destroy thee for ever: * he will pluck thee out, and remove thee from thy dwelling place: and thy root out of the land of the living.

51:8 Vidébunt iusti, et timébunt, et super eum ridébunt, et dicent: * Ecce homo, qui non pósuit Deum adiutórem suum:

51:8 The just shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say: * Behold the man that made not God his helper:

51:9 Sed sperávit in multitúdine divitiárum suárum: * et præváluit in vanitáte sua.

51:9 But trusted in the abundance of his riches: * and prevailed in his vanity.

51:10 Ego autem, sicut olíva fructífera in domo Dei, * sperávi in misericórdia Dei in ætérnum: et in sǽculum sǽculi.

51:10 But I, as a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, * have hoped in the mercy of God for ever, yea for ever and ever.

52:3 God looked down from heaven on the children of men: * to see if there were any that did understand, or did seek God.

52:4 All have gone aside, they are become unprofitable together, * there is none that doth good, no not one.

52:5 Nonne scient omnes qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?

52:5 Shall not all the workers of iniquity know, * who eat up my people as they eat bread?

52:6 Deum non invocavérunt: * illic trepidavérunt timóre, ubi non erat timor.

52:6 They have not called upon God: * there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.

52:6 Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum qui homínibus placent: * confúsi sunt, quóniam Deus sprevit eos.

52:6 For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: * they have been confounded, because God hath despised them.

52:7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israël? * cum convérterit Deus captivitátem plebis suæ, exsultábit Iacob, et lætábitur Israël.

54:2 Hear, O God, my prayer, and despise not my supplication: * be attentive to me and hear me.

54:3 Contristátus sum in exercitatióne mea: * et conturbátus sum a voce inimíci, et a tribulatióne peccatóris.

54:3 I am grieved in my exercise; * and am troubled, at the voice of the enemy, and at the tribulation of the sinner.

54:4 Quóniam declinavérunt in me iniquitátes: * et in ira molésti erant mihi.

54:4 For they have cast iniquities upon me; * and in wrath they were troublesome to me.

54:5 Cor meum conturbátum est in me: * et formído mortis cécidit super me.

54:5 My heart is troubled within me: * and the fear of death is fallen upon me.

54:6 Timor et tremor venérunt super me: * et contexérunt me ténebræ.

54:6 Fear and trembling are come upon me: * and darkness hath covered me.

54:7 Et dixi: Quis dabit mihi pennas sicut colúmbæ, * et volábo, et requiéscam?

54:7 And I said: Who will give me wings like a dove, * and I will fly and be at rest?

54:8 Ecce, elongávi fúgiens: * et mansi in solitúdine.

54:8 Lo, I have gone far off flying away; * and I abode in the wilderness.

54:9 Exspectábam eum, qui salvum me fecit * a pusillanimitáte spíritus et tempestáte.

54:9 I waited for him that hath saved me * from pusillanimity of spirit, and a storm.

54:10 Præcípita, Dómine, dívide linguas eórum: * quóniam vidi iniquitátem, et contradictiónem in civitáte.

54:10 Cast down, O Lord, and divide their tongues; * for I have seen iniquity and contradiction in the city.

54:11 Die ac nocte circúmdabit eam super muros eius iníquitas: * et labor in médio eius, et iniustítia.

54:11 Day and night shall iniquity surround it upon its walls: * and in the midst thereof are labour, and injustice.

54:12 Et non defécit de platéis eius * usúra, et dolus.

54:12 And usury and deceit * have not departed from its streets.

54:13 Quóniam si inimícus meus maledixísset mihi, * sustinuíssem útique.

54:13 For if my enemy had reviled me, * I would verily have borne with it.

54:13 Et si is, qui óderat me, super me magna locútus fuísset, * abscondíssem me fórsitan ab eo.

54:13 And if he that hated me had spoken great things against me, * I would perhaps have hidden myself from him.

54:14 Tu vero, homo unánimis: * dux meus, et notus meus:

54:14 But thou a man of one mind, * my guide, and my familiar.

54:15 Qui simul mecum dulces capiébas cibos: * in domo Dei ambulávimus cum consénsu.

54:15 Who didst take sweetmeats together with me: * in the house of God we walked with consent.

54:16 Véniat mors super illos: * et descéndant in inférnum vivéntes:

54:16 Let death come upon them, * and let them go down alive into hell.

54:16 Quóniam nequítiæ in habitáculis eórum: * in médio eórum.

Psalmus 61 [1]

Psalm 61 [1]

61:2 Nonne Deo subiécta erit ánima mea? * ab ipso enim salutáre meum.

61:2 Shall not my soul be subject to God? * for from him is my salvation.

61:3 Nam et ipse Deus meus, et salutáris meus: * suscéptor meus, non movébor ámplius.

61:3 For he is my God and my saviour: * he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.

61:4 Quoúsque irrúitis in hóminem? * interfícitis univérsi vos: tamquam paríeti inclináto et macériæ depúlsæ?

61:4 How long do you rush in upon a man? * you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.

61:5 Verúmtamen prétium meum cogitavérunt repéllere, cucúrri in siti: * ore suo benedicébant, et corde suo maledicébant.

61:5 But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: * they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.

61:6 Verúmtamen Deo subiécta esto, ánima mea: * quóniam ab ipso patiéntia mea.

61:6 But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: * for from him is my patience.

61:8 In Deo salutáre meum, et glória mea: * Deus auxílii mei, et spes mea in Deo est.

61:8 In God is my salvation and my glory: * he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

61:9 Speráte in eo omnis congregátio pópuli, effúndite coram illo corda vestra: * Deus adiútor noster in ætérnum.

61:9 Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. * God is our helper for ever.

61:10 Verúmtamen vani fílii hóminum, mendáces fílii hóminum in statéris: * ut decípiant ipsi de vanitáte in idípsum.

61:10 But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: * that by vanity they may together deceive.

61:11 Nolíte speráre in iniquitáte, et rapínas nolíte concupíscere: * divítiæ si áffluant, nolíte cor appónere.

61:11 Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: * if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.

61:12 Semel locútus est Deus, duo hæc audívi, quia potéstas Dei est, et tibi, Dómine, misericórdia: * quia tu reddes unicuíque iuxta ópera sua.

61:12 God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God, and mercy to thee, O Lord; * for thou wilt render to every man according to his works.

72:1 Quam bonus Israël Deus, * his, qui recto sunt corde!

72:1 How good is God to Israel, * to them that are of a right heart!

72:2 Mei autem pæne moti sunt pedes: * pæne effúsi sunt gressus mei.

72:2 But my feet were almost moved; * my steps had wellnigh slipped.

72:3 Quia zelávi super iníquos, * pacem peccatórum videns.

72:3 Because I had a zeal on occasion of the wicked, * seeing the prosperity of sinners.

72:4 Quia non est respéctus morti eórum: * et firmaméntum in plaga eórum.

72:4 For there is no regard to their death, * nor is there strength in their stripes.

72:5 In labóre hóminum non sunt, * et cum homínibus non flagellabúntur:

72:5 They are not in the labour of men: * neither shall they be scourged like other men.

72:6 Ídeo ténuit eos supérbia, * opérti sunt iniquitáte et impietáte sua.

72:6 Therefore pride hath held them fast: * they are covered with their iniquity and their wickedness.

72:7 Pródiit quasi ex ádipe iníquitas eórum: * transiérunt in afféctum cordis.

72:7 Their iniquity hath come forth, as it were from fatness: * they have passed into the affection of the heart.

72:8 Cogitavérunt, et locúti sunt nequítiam: * iniquitátem in excélso locúti sunt.

72:8 They have thought and spoken wickedness: * they have spoken iniquity on high.

72:9 Posuérunt in cælum os suum: * et lingua eórum transívit in terra.

72:10 Therefore will my people return here * and full days shall be found in them.

72:11 Et dixérunt: Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in excélso?

72:11 And they said: How doth God know? * and is there knowledge in the most High?

72:12 Ecce, ipsi peccatóres, et abundántes in sǽculo, * obtinuérunt divítias.

72:12 Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.

72:13 Et dixi: Ergo sine causa iustificávi cor meum, * et lavi inter innocéntes manus meas:

72:13 And I said: Then have I in vain justified my heart, * and washed my hands among the innocent.

72:14 Et fui flagellátus tota die, * et castigátio mea in matutínis.

72:14 And I have been scourged all the day; * and my chastisement hath been in the mornings.

72:15 Si dicébam: Narrábo sic: * ecce, natiónem filiórum tuórum reprobávi.

72:16 Existimábam ut cognóscerem hoc, * labor est ante me:

72:16 I studied that I might know this thing, * it is a labour in my sight:

72:18 But indeed for deceits thou hast put it to them: * when they were lifted up, thou hast cast them down.

72:19 Quómodo facti sunt in desolatiónem, súbito defecérunt: * periérunt propter iniquitátem suam.

72:19 How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: * they have perished by reason of their iniquity.

72:20 Velut sómnium surgéntium, Dómine, * in civitáte tua imáginem ipsórum ad níhilum rédiges.

72:20 As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.

72:21 Quia inflammátum est cor meum, et renes mei commutáti sunt: * et ego ad níhilum redáctus sum, et nescívi.

72:21 For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.

72:23 Ut iuméntum factus sum apud te: * et ego semper tecum.

72:23 I am become as a beast before thee: * and I am always with thee.

72:24 Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me, * et cum glória suscepísti me.

72:24 Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.

72:25 Quid enim mihi est in cælo? * et a te quid vólui super terram?

72:25 For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

72:26 Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

72:26 For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: * thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever.

72:27 Quia ecce, qui elóngant se a te, períbunt: * perdidísti omnes, qui fornicántur abs te.

72:27 For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

72:28 Mihi autem adhærére Deo bonum est: * pónere in Dómino Deo spem meam:

72:28 But it is good for me to adhere to my God, * to put my hope in the Lord God:

Christus resúrgens ex mórtuis iam non móritur, mors illi ultra non dominábitur. Quod enim mórtuus est peccáto, mórtuus est semel: quod autem vivit, vivit Deo.

Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him. For in that he died to sin, he died once; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

77:17 Et apposuérunt adhuc peccáre ei: * in iram excitavérunt Excélsum in inaquóso.

77:17 And they added yet more sin against him: * they provoked the most High to wrath in the place without water.

77:18 Et tentavérunt Deum in córdibus suis, * ut péterent escas animábus suis.

77:18 And they tempted God in their hearts, * by asking meat for their desires.

77:19 Et male locúti sunt de Deo: * dixérunt: Numquid póterit Deus paráre mensam in desérto?

77:20 Quóniam percússit petram, et fluxérunt aquæ: * et torréntes inundavérunt.

77:20 Because he struck the rock, and the waters gushed out, * and the streams overflowed.

77:20 Numquid et panem póterit dare, * aut paráre mensam pópulo suo?

77:22 Quia non credidérunt in Deo: * nec speravérunt in salutári eius:

77:22 Because they believed not in God: * and trusted not in his salvation.

77:23 Et mandávit núbibus désuper: * et iánuas cæli apéruit.

77:35 And they remembered that God was their helper: * and the most high God their redeemer.

77:36 Et dilexérunt eum in ore suo, * et lingua sua mentíti sunt ei.

77:37 Cor autem eórum non erat rectum cum eo: * nec fidéles hábiti sunt in testaménto eius.

77:37 But their heart was not right with him: * nor were they counted faithful in his covenant.

77:38 Ipse autem est miséricors, et propítius fiet peccátis eórum: * et non dispérdet eos.

77:38 But he is merciful, and will forgive their sins: * and will not destroy them.

77:38 Et abundávit ut avérteret iram suam: * et non accéndit omnem iram suam:

77:38 And many a time did he turn away his anger: * and did not kindle all his wrath.

77:39 Et recordátus est quia caro sunt: * spíritus vadens et non rédiens.

77:39 And he remembered that they are flesh: * a wind that goeth and returneth not.

77:40 Quóties exacerbavérunt eum in desérto, * in iram concitavérunt eum in inaquóso?

77:40 How often did they provoke him in the desert: * and move him to wrath in the place without water?

77:41 Et convérsi sunt, et tentavérunt Deum: * et Sanctum Israël exacerbavérunt.

77:41 And they turned back and tempted God: * and grieved the holy one of Israel.

77:49 Misit in eos iram indignatiónis suæ: * indignatiónem, et iram, et tribulatiónem: immissiónes per ángelos malos.

77:49 And he sent upon them the wrath of his indignation: * indignation and wrath and trouble, which he sent by evil angels.

77:50 Viam fecit sémitæ iræ suæ, non pepércit a morte animábus eórum: * et iuménta eórum in morte conclúsit.

77:50 He made a way for a path to his anger: * he spared not their souls from death, and their cattle he shut up in death.

77:51 And he killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: * the firstfruits of all their labour in the tabernacles of Cham.

77:52 Et ábstulit sicut oves pópulum suum: * et perdúxit eos tamquam gregem in desérto.

77:52 And he took away his own people as sheep: * and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.

77:53 Et dedúxit eos in spe, et non timuérunt: * et inimícos eórum opéruit mare.

77:56 Yet they tempted, and provoked the most high God: * and they kept not his testimonies.

77:57 Et avertérunt se, et non servavérunt pactum: * quemádmodum patres eórum convérsi sunt in arcum pravum.

77:57 And they turned away, and kept not the covenant: * even like their fathers they were turned aside as a crooked bow.

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

78:2 Posuérunt morticína servórum tuórum, escas volatílibus cæli: * carnes sanctórum tuórum béstiis terræ.

78:2 They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be meat for the fowls of the air: * the flesh of thy saints for the beasts of the earth.

78:3 Effudérunt sánguinem eórum tamquam aquam in circúitu Ierúsalem: * et non erat qui sepelíret.

78:3 They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem, * and there was none to bury them.

78:4 Facti sumus oppróbrium vicínis nostris: * subsannátio et illúsio his, qui in circúitu nostro sunt.

78:4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours: * a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.

78:5 How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: * shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?

78:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that have not known thee: * and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

78:7 Quia comedérunt Iacob: * et locum eius desolavérunt.

Ias 4:1-4

Jas 4:1-4

1 Unde bella et lites in vobis? nonne hinc: ex concupiscéntiis vestris, quæ mílitant in membris vestris?

1 From whence are wars and contentions among you? Are they not hence, from your concupiscences, which war in your members?

2 You covet, and have not: you kill, and envy, and can not obtain. You contend and war, and you have not, because you ask not.

Jas 4:11-15

11 Nolíte detráhere altérutrum fratres. Qui détrahit fratri, aut qui iúdicat fratrem suum, détrahit legi, et iúdicat legem. Si autem iúdicas legem, non es factor legis, sed iudex.

11 Detract not one another, my brethren. He that detracteth his brother, or he that judgeth his brother, detracteth the law, and judgeth the law. But if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

12 Unus est legislátor et iudex, qui potest pérdere et liberáre.

12 There is one lawgiver, and judge, that is able to destroy and to deliver.

13 Tu autem quis es, qui iúdicas próximum? Ecce nunc qui dícitis: Hódie, aut crástino íbimus in illam civitátem, et faciémus ibi quidem annum, et mercábimur, et lucrum faciémus:

13 But who art thou that judgest thy neighbour? Behold, now you that say: Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city, and there we will spend a year, and will traffic, and make our gain.

14 Qui ignorátis quid erit in crástino.

14 Whereas you know not what shall be on the morrow.

15 Quæ est enim vita vestra? vapor est ad módicum parens, et deínceps exterminábitur; pro eo ut dicátis: Si Dóminus volúerit. Et: Si vixérimus, faciémus hoc, aut illud.

15 For what is your life? It is a vapour which appeareth for a little while, and afterwards shall vanish away. For that you should say: If the Lord will, and if we shall live, we will do this or that.

142:1 Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: * hear me in thy justice.

142:2 Et non intres in iudícium cum servo tuo: * quia non iustificábitur in conspéctu tuo omnis vivens.

142:2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: * for in thy sight no man living shall be justified.

142:6 I stretched forth my hands to thee: * my soul is as earth without water unto thee.

142:7 Velóciter exáudi me, Dómine: * defécit spíritus meus.

142:7 Hear me speedily, O Lord: * my spirit hath fainted away.

142:7 Non avértas fáciem tuam a me: * et símilis ero descendéntibus in lacum.

142:7 Turn not away thy face from me, * lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

142:8 Audítam fac mihi mane misericórdiam tuam: * quia in te sperávi.

142:8 Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; * for in thee have I hoped.

142:8 Notam fac mihi viam, in qua ámbulem: * quia ad te levávi ánimam meam.

142:8 Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: * for I have lifted up my soul to thee.

142:9 Éripe me de inimícis meis, Dómine, ad te confúgi: * doce me fácere voluntátem tuam, quia Deus meus es tu.

142:9 Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled: * teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God.

142:10 Spíritus tuus bonus dedúcet me in terram rectam: * propter nomen tuum, Dómine, vivificábis me, in æquitáte tua.

142:10 Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land: * for thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice.

Psalmus 138(1-13) [1]

Psalm 138(1-13) [1]

138:1 Dómine, probásti me, et cognovísti me: * tu cognovísti sessiónem meam, et resurrectiónem meam.

138:1 Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me: * thou hast known my sitting down, and my rising up.

138:3 Intellexísti cogitatiónes meas de longe: * sémitam meam, et funículum meum investigásti.

138:3 Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: * my path and my life thou hast searched out.

138:4 Et omnes vias meas prævidísti: * quia non est sermo in lingua mea.

138:4 And thou hast foreseen all my ways: * for there is no speech on my tongue.

138:5 Ecce, Dómine, tu cognovísti ómnia novíssima, et antíqua: * tu formásti me, et posuísti super me manum tuam.

138:5 Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: * thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.

138:6 Mirábilis facta est sciéntia tua ex me: * confortáta est, et non pótero ad eam.

138:6 Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: * it is high, and I cannot reach to it.

138:7 Quo ibo a spíritu tuo? * et quo a fácie tua fúgiam?

138:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? * or whither shall I flee from thy face?

138:8 Si ascéndero in cælum, tu illic es: * si descéndero in inférnum, ades.

138:8 If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: * if I descend into hell, thou art present.

138:9 Si súmpsero pennas meas dilúculo, * et habitávero in extrémis maris:

138:9 If I take my wings early in the morning, * and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:

138:10 Étenim illuc manus tua dedúcet me: * et tenébit me déxtera tua.

138:10 Even there also shall thy hand lead me: * and thy right hand shall hold me.

138:11 Et dixi: Fórsitan ténebræ conculcábunt me: * et nox illuminátio mea in delíciis meis.

138:11 And I said: Perhaps darkness shall cover me: * and night shall be my light in my pleasures.

138:12 Quia ténebræ non obscurabúntur a te, † et nox sicut dies illuminábitur: * sicut ténebræ eius, ita et lumen eius.

138:12 But darkness shall not be dark to thee, † and night shall be light as the day: * the darkness thereof, and the light thereof are alike to thee.

138:13 Quia tu possedísti renes meos: * suscepísti me de útero matris meæ.

138:14 I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: † wonderful are thy works, * and my soul knoweth right well.

138:15 Non est occultátum os meum a te, quod fecísti in occúlto: * et substántia mea in inferióribus terræ.

138:15 My bone is not hidden from thee, which thou hast made in secret: * and my substance in the lower parts of the earth.

138:16 Imperféctum meum vidérunt óculi tui, † et in libro tuo omnes scribéntur: * dies formabúntur, et nemo in eis.

138:16 Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, † and in thy book all shall be written: * days shall be formed, and no one in them.

138:17 Mihi autem nimis honorificáti sunt amíci tui, Deus: * nimis confortátus est principátus eórum.

138:17 But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: * their principality is exceedingly strengthened.

138:18 Dinumerábo eos, et super arénam multiplicabúntur: * exsurréxi, et adhuc sum tecum.

138:18 I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand: * I rose up and am still with thee.

138:19 Si occíderis, Deus, peccatóres: * viri sánguinum, declináte a me:

138:19 If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: * ye men of blood, depart from me:

138:20 Quia dícitis in cogitatióne: * Accípient in vanitáte civitátes tuas.

138:20 Because you say in thought: * They shall receive thy cities in vain.

138:21 Nonne qui odérunt te, Dómine, óderam? * et super inimícos tuos tabescébam?

138:21 Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: * and pined away because of thy enemies?

138:22 Perfécto ódio óderam illos: * et inimíci facti sunt mihi.

138:22 I have hated them with a perfect hatred: * and they are become enemies to me.

138:23 Proba me, Deus, et scito cor meum: * intérroga me, et cognósce sémitas meas.

76:3 In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, * and I was not deceived.

76:4 Rénuit consolári ánima mea, * memor fui Dei, et delectátus sum, et exercitátus sum: et defécit spíritus meus.

76:4 My soul refused to be comforted: * I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.

76:8 Numquid in ætérnum proíciet Deus: * aut non appónet ut complacítior sit adhuc?

76:8 Will God then cast off for ever? * or will he never be more favourable again?

76:9 Aut in finem misericórdiam suam abscíndet, * a generatióne in generatiónem?

76:9 Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, * from generation to generation?

76:10 Aut obliviscétur miseréri Deus? * aut continébit in ira sua misericórdias suas?

Ex Tractátu S. Augustíni Epíscopi de Sýmbolo ad Catechúmenos

From the Treatise of St. Augustine, Bishop, on the Creed, to the Catechumens

Lib. 3 cap. 4 in fine

Book 3, ch. 4, at the end

Per féminam mors, per féminam vita: per Hevam intéritus, per Maríam salus. Illa, corrúpta, secúta est seductórem: hæc, íntegra, péperit Salvatórem. Illa póculum a serpénte propinátum libénter accépit et viro trádidit, ex quo simul mereréntur occídi: hæc, grátia cælésti désuper infúsa, vitam prótulit, per quam caro mórtua possit resuscitári. Quis est qui hæc operátus est, nisi Vírginis Fílius et vírginum Sponsus, qui áttulit Matri fecunditátem, sed non ábstulit integritátem?

Through a woman came death; through a woman, life: through Eve, ruin; through Mary, salvation. The former, corrupted, followed the deceiver; the latter, uncorrupted, gave birth to the Saviour. Eve willingly accepted the drink offered by the serpent and handed it on to her husband; and by their action both deserved the penalty of death. Mary, filled with heavenly grace from above, brought forth life, by which mankind, already dead, can be revived. Who has worked this miracle, if not the Son of the Virgin and the Spouse of virgin who brought fruitfulness to His mother without taking away her integrity?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

Jas 1:22-24

Caríssimi: Estóte factóres verbi, et non auditóres tantum: falléntes vosmetípsos. Quia si quis audítor est verbi, et non factor, hic comparábitur viro consideránti vultum nativitátis suæ in spéculo: considerávit enim se, et ábiit, et statim oblítus est qualis fúerit.

My beloved: But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if a man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass. For he beheld himself, and went his way, and presently forgot what manner of man he was.

1 Pet 1:6-12

6 In quo exsultábitis, módicum nunc si opórtet contristári in váriis tentatiónibus:

6 Wherein you shall greatly rejoice, if now you must be for a little time made sorrowful in diverse temptations:

7 Ut probátio vestræ fídei multo pretiósior auro (quod per ignem probátur) inveniátur in laudem, et glóriam, et honórem in revelatióne Iesu Christi:

7 That the trial of your faith (much more precious than gold which is tried by the fire) may be found unto praise and glory and honour at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

8 Quem cum non vidéritis, dilígitis: in quem nunc quoque non vidéntes créditis: credéntes autem exsultábitis lætítia inenarrábili, et glorificáta:

8 Whom having not seen, you love: in whom also now, though you see him not, you believe: and believing shall rejoice with joy unspeakable and glorified;

9 Reportántes finem fídei vestræ, salútem animárum.

9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

10 De qua salúte exquisiérunt, atque scrutáti sunt prophétæ, qui de futúra in vobis grátia prophetavérunt:

10 Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and diligently searched, who prophesied of the grace to come in you.

11 Scrutántes in quod vel quale tempus significáret in eis Spíritus Christi: prænúntians eas quæ in Christo sunt passiónes, et posterióres glórias:

11 Searching what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ in them did signify: when it foretold those sufferings that are in Christ, and the glories that should follow:

12 Quibus revelátum est quia non sibimetípsis, vobis autem ministrábant ea quæ nunc nuntiáta sunt vobis per eos qui evangelizavérunt vobis, Spíritu Sancto misso de cælo, in quem desíderant ángeli prospícere.

12 To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you they ministered those things which are now declared to you by them that have preached the gospel to you, the Holy Ghost being sent down from heaven, on whom the angels desire to look.

1 Pet 1:13-21

1 Pet 1:13-21

13 Propter quod succíncti lumbos mentis vestræ, sóbrii, perfécte speráte in eam, quæ offértur vobis, grátiam, in revelatiónem Iesu Christi:

13 Wherefore having the loins of your mind girt up, being sober, trust perfectly in the grace which is offered you in the revelation of Jesus Christ,

14 Quasi fílii obediéntiæ, non configuráti prióribus ignorántiæ vestræ desidériis:

14 As children of obedience, not fashioned according to the former desires of your ignorance:

15 Sed secúndum eum qui vocávit vos, Sanctum: et ipsi in omni conversatióne sancti sitis:

15 But according to him that hath called you, who is holy, be you also in all manner of conversation holy:

16 Quóniam scriptum est: Sancti éritis, quóniam ego sanctus sum.

16 Because it is written: You shall be holy, for I am holy.

17 Et si patrem invocátis eum, qui sine acceptióne personárum iúdicat secúndum uniuscuiúsque opus, in timóre incolátus vestri témpore conversámini.

17 And if you invoke as Father him who, without respect of persons, judgeth according to every one's work: converse in fear during the time of your sojourning here.

18 Sciéntes quod non corruptibílibus, auro vel argénto, redémpti estis de vana vestra conversatióne patérnæ traditiónis:

18 Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things as gold or silver, from your vain conversation of the tradition of your fathers:

19 Sed pretióso sánguine quasi agni immaculáti Christi, et incontamináti:

19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb unspotted and undefiled,

20 Præcógniti quidem ante mundi constitutiónem, manifestáti autem novíssimis tempóribus propter vos,

20 Foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but manifested in the last times for you,

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 16:23-30

John 16:23-30

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Amen, amen dico vobis: si quid petiéritis Patrem in nómine meo, dabit vobis. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus said unto His disciples: Amen, Amen, I say unto you: Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in My Name, He will give it you. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo.

Tractatus 102 in Ioannem

102nd Tract on John.

Dómini verba nunc ista tractánda sunt: Amen, amen, dico vobis: Si quid petiéritis Patrem in nómine meo, dabit vobis. Iam dictum est in superióribus huius Domínici sermónis pártibus, propter eos, qui nonnúlla petunt a Patre in Christi nómine, nec accípiunt: non peti in nómine Salvatóris, quidquid pétitur contra ratiónem salútis. Non enim sonum litterárum ac syllabárum, sed quod sonus ipse signíficat, et quod eo sono recte ac veráciter intellégitur, hoc accipiéndus est dícere, cum dicit: In nómine meo.

We have now to consider these words of the Lord “Amen, Amen, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in My Name, He will give it you.” It hath already been said in the earlier part of this discourse of the Lord, for the sake of some who ask the Father in Christ's Name and receive not, that whatsoever is asked, which tendeth not to salvation, is not asked in the Name of the Saviour. By the words “In My Name” we must not understand the vocalization of letters and syllables, but the meaning of what is said, the honest and true meaning.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Make them to be numbered with thy Saints, * in glory everlasting.

Salvum fac pópulum tuum, Dómine, * et bénedic hereditáti tuæ.

Jas 1:22-24

Caríssimi: Estóte factóres verbi, et non auditóres tantum: falléntes vosmetípsos. Quia si quis audítor est verbi, et non factor, hic comparábitur viro consideránti vultum nativitátis suæ in spéculo: considerávit enim se, et ábiit, et statim oblítus est qualis fúerit.

My beloved: But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if a man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass. For he beheld himself, and went his way, and presently forgot what manner of man he was.

℟. Deo grátias.

1 Pet 2:1-5

1 Deponéntes ígitur omnem malítiam, et omnem dolum, et simulatiónes, et invídias, et omnes detractiónes,

1 Wherefore laying away all malice, and all guile, and dissimulations, and envies, and all detractions,

2 Sicut modo géniti infántes, rationábile, sine dolo lac concupíscite: ut in eo crescátis in salútem:

4 Ad quem accedéntes lápidem vivum, ab homínibus quidem reprobátum, a Deo autem eléctum, et honorificátum:

4 Unto whom coming, as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen and made honourable by God:

5 Et ipsi tamquam lápides vivi superædificámini, domus spirituális, sacerdótium sanctum, offérre spirituáles hóstias, acceptábiles Deo per Iesum Christum.

1 Pet 2:6-10

1 Pet 2:6-10

6 Propter quod cóntinet Scriptúra: Ecce pono in Sion lápidem summum angulárem, eléctum, pretiósum: et qui credíderit in eum, non confundétur.

6 Wherefore it is said in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious. And he that shall believe in him, shall not be confounded.

7 Vobis ígitur honor credéntibus: non credéntibus autem lapis, quem reprobavérunt ædificántes: hic factus est in caput ánguli,

7 To you therefore that believe, he is honour: but to them that believe not, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:

8 Et lapis offensiónis, et petra scándali, his qui offéndunt verbo, nec credunt in quo et pósiti sunt.

8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set.

9 Vos autem genus eléctum, regále sacerdótium, gens sancta, pópulus acquisitiónis: ut virtútes annuntiétis eius qui de ténebris vos vocávit in admirábile lumen suum.

9 But you are a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people: that you may declare his virtues, who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

10 Qui aliquándo non pópulus, nunc autem pópulus Dei: qui non consecúti misericórdiam, nunc autem misericórdiam consecúti.

10 Who in time past were not a people: but are now the people of God. Who had not obtained mercy; but now have obtained mercy.

1 Pet 2:11-17

11 Caríssimi, óbsecro vos tamquam ádvenas et peregrínos abstinére vos a carnálibus desidériis, quæ mílitant advérsus ánimam,

11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, to refrain yourselves from carnal desires which war against the soul,

12 Conversatiónem vestram inter gentes habéntes bonam: ut in eo quod detréctant de vobis tamquam de malefactóribus, ex bonis opéribus vos considerántes, gloríficent Deum in die visitatiónis.

12 Having your conversation good among the Gentiles: that whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by the good works, which they shall behold in you, glorify God in the day of visitation.

13 Subiécti ígitur estóte omni humánæ creatúræ propter Deum: sive regi quasi præcellénti:

13 Be ye subject therefore to every human creature for God's sake: whether it be to the king as excelling;

14 Sive dúcibus tamquam ab eo missis ad vindíctam malefactórum, laudem vero bonórum:

14 Or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of the good:

15 Quia sic est volúntas Dei, ut benefaciéntes obmutéscere faciátis imprudéntium hóminum ignorántiam:

15 For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

16 Quasi líberi, et non quasi velámen habéntes malítiæ libertátem, sed sicut servi Dei.

16 As free, and not as making liberty a cloak for malice, but as the servants of God.

Philíppus Nérius, piis honestísque paréntibus Floréntiæ natus, ampla pátrui hereditáte dimíssa, Romam se cóntulit; ubi, philosophía ac sacris lítteris erudítus, totum se Christo dicávit. Sacérdos ex obediéntia factus, in animárum salúte procuránda totus fuit, et in confessiónibus audiéndis ad extrémum usque diem persevérans, innúmeros pene fílios Christo péperit; quos verbi Dei cotidiáno pábulo, sacramentórum frequéntia, oratiónis assiduitáte aliísque piis exercitatiónibus enutríri cúpiens, Oratórii congregatiónem instítuit. Caritáte Dei vulnerátum tanto cor eius æstuábat ardóre, ut, cum intra fines suos continéri non posset, sinum, confráctis atque elátis duábus cóstulis, mirabíliter Dóminus ampliáverit. Prophetíæ dono fuit illústris, et in animórum sénsibus penetrándis mirífice enítuit. Virginitátem perpétuo illibátam servávit; idque assecútus est, ut eos, qui puritátem cólerent, ex odóre, qui vero secus, ex fœtóre dignósceret. Anno salútis millésimo quingentésimo nonagésimo quinto, octogenárius obdormívit in Dómino.

Philip Neri was born in Florence of good and devout parents. Giving up a large inheritance from his uncle, he went to Rome, where he studied philosophy and the sacred sciences and dedicated himself wholly to Christ. He became a priest out of obedience and gave himself up completely to the saving of souls. Through hearing confessions, in which he persevered to the last day of his life, he brought forth innumerable sons for Christ. Desiring to nourish them with the daily bread of God's word, with frequent reception of the sacraments, with constant prayer, and with other exercises of piety, he founded the Congregation of the Oratory. His heart was wounded by the love of God, burning with such ardour that it could only be contained within his breast because the Lord miraculously enlarged the breast by breaking two of his ribs, and forming an arch over the heart. Philip was famed for the gift of prophecy and for his wonderful penetration of the thoughts of men's hearts. He kept his virginity always intact; and he had the gift of distinguishing those who cultivated purity by a good odour, and those who did not by a stench. At the age of eighty, in the year of salvation 1595, he fell asleep in the Lord.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

34:11 Surgéntes testes iníqui, * quæ ignorábam interrogábant me.

34:11 Unjust witnesses rising up * have asked me things I knew not.

34:12 Retribuébant mihi mala pro bonis: * sterilitátem ánimæ meæ.

34:12 They repaid me evil for good: * to the depriving me of my soul.

34:13 Ego autem cum mihi molésti essent, * induébar cilício.

34:13 I humbled my soul with fasting; * and my prayer shall be turned into my bosom.

34:14 Quasi próximum, et quasi fratrem nostrum, sic complacébam: * quasi lugens et contristátus, sic humiliábar.

34:14 As a neighbour and as an own brother, so did I please: * as one mourning and sorrowful so was I humbled.

34:15 Et advérsum me lætáti sunt, et convenérunt: * congregáta sunt super me flagélla, et ignorávi.

34:15 But they rejoiced against me, and came together: * scourges were gathered together upon me, and I knew not.

34:16 Dissipáti sunt, nec compúncti, tentavérunt me, subsannavérunt me subsannatióne: * frenduérunt super me déntibus suis.

34:16 They were separated, and repented not: they tempted me, they scoffed at me with scorn: * they gnashed upon me with their teeth.

34:17 Dómine, quando respícies? * restítue ánimam meam a malignitáte eórum, a leónibus únicam meam.

34:17 Lord, when wilt thou look upon me? * rescue thou my soul from their malice: my only one from the lions.

34:18 I will give thanks to thee in a great church; * I will praise thee in a strong people.

34:19 Non supergáudeant mihi qui adversántur mihi iníque: * qui odérunt me gratis et ánnuunt óculis.

34:19 Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: * who have hated me without cause, and wink with the eyes.

34:20 Quóniam mihi quidem pacífice loquebántur: * et in iracúndia terræ loquéntes, dolos cogitábant.

34:20 For they spoke indeed peaceably to me; * and speaking in the anger of the earth they devised guile.

34:21 Et dilatavérunt super me os suum: * dixérunt: Euge, euge, vidérunt óculi nostri.

34:21 And they opened their mouth wide against me; * they said: Well done, well done, our eyes have seen it.

37:16 Quóniam in te, Dómine, sperávi: * tu exáudies me, Dómine, Deus meus.

37:16 For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: * thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.

37:17 Quia dixi: Nequándo supergáudeant mihi inimíci mei: * et dum commovéntur pedes mei, super me magna locúti sunt.

37:17 For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: * and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.

38:7 Thesaurízat: * et ignórat cui congregábit ea.

38:10 I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it: * remove thy scourges from me.

38:12 A fortitúdine manus tuæ ego deféci in increpatiónibus: * propter iniquitátem corripuísti hóminem.

38:12 The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes: * thou hast corrected man for iniquity.

38:12 Et tabéscere fecísti sicut aráneam ánimam eius: * verúmtamen vane conturbátur omnis homo.

38:12 And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: * surely in vain is any man disquieted.

38:13 Exáudi oratiónem meam, Dómine, et deprecatiónem meam: * áuribus pércipe lácrimas meas.

38:13 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: * give ear to my tears.

38:13 Ne síleas: quóniam ádvena ego sum apud te, et peregrínus, * sicut omnes patres mei.

1 Christ therefore having suffered in the flesh, be you also armed with the same thought: for he that hath suffered in the flesh, hath ceased from sins:

2 Ut iam non desidériis hóminum, sed voluntáti Dei, quod réliquum est in carne vivat témporis.

2 That now he may live the rest of his time in the flesh, not after the desires of men, but according to the will of God.

3 Súfficit enim prætéritum tempus ad voluntátem géntium consummándam his qui ambulavérunt in luxúriis, desidériis, vinoléntiis, comessatiónibus, potatiónibus, et illícitis idolórum cúltibus.

3 For the time past is sufficient to have fulfilled the will of the Gentiles, for them who have walked in riotousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and unlawful worshipping of idols.

4 In quo admirántur non concurréntibus vobis in eándem luxúriæ confusiónem, blasphemántes.

4 Wherein they think it strange, that you run not with them into the same confusion of riotousness, speaking evil of you.

5 Qui reddent ratiónem ei qui parátus est iudicáre vivos et mórtuos.

5 Who shall render account to him, who is ready to judge the living and the dead.

6 Propter hoc enim et mórtuis evangelizátum est: ut iudicéntur quidem secúndum hómines in carne, vivant autem secúndum Deum in spíritu.

6 For, for this cause was the gospel preached also to the dead: that they might be judged indeed according to men, in the flesh; but may live according to God, in the Spirit.

7 Omnium autem finis appropinquávit.

7 But the end of all is at hand.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

1 Pet 4:7-11

7 Estóte ítaque prudéntes, et vigiláte in oratiónibus.

7 Be prudent therefore, and watch in prayers.

8 Ante ómnia autem, mútuam in vobismetípsis caritátem contínuam habéntes: quia cáritas óperit multitúdinem peccatórum.

8 But before all things have a constant mutual charity among yourselves: for charity covereth a multitude of sins.

9 Hospitáles ínvicem sine murmuratióne.

9 Using hospitality one towards another, without murmuring,

10 Unusquísque, sicut accépit grátiam, in altérutrum illam administrántes, sicut boni dispensatóres multifórmis grátiæ Dei.

10 As every man hath received grace, ministering the same one to another: as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

11 Si quis lóquitur, quasi sermónes Dei: si quis minístrat, tamquam ex virtúte, quam adminístrat Deus: ut in ómnibus honorificétur Deus per Iesum Christum: cui est glória et impérium in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

11 If any man speak, let him speak, as the words of God. If any man minister, let him do it, as of the power, which God administereth: that in all things God may be honoured through Jesus Christ: to whom is glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.

1 Pet 4:12-17

1 Pet 4:12-17

12 Caríssimi, nolíte peregrinári in fervóre, qui ad tentatiónem vobis fit, quasi novi áliquid vobis contíngat:

12 Dearly beloved, think not strange the burning heat which is to try you, as if some new thing happened to you;

13 Sed communicántes Christi passiónibus gaudéte, ut et in revelatióne glóriæ eius gaudeátis exsultántes.

13 But if you partake of the sufferings of Christ, rejoice that when his glory shall be revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.

14 Si exprobrámini in nómine Christi, beáti éritis: quóniam quod est honóris, glóriæ, et virtútis Dei, et qui est eius Spíritus, super vos requiéscit.

14 If you be reproached for the name of Christ, you shall be blessed: for that which is of the honour, glory, and power of God, and that which is his Spirit, resteth upon you.

15 Nemo autem vestrum patiátur ut homicída, aut fur, aut malédicus, aut alienórum appetítor.

15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a railer, or a coveter of other men's things.

16 Si autem ut Christiánus, non erubéscat: gloríficet autem Deum in isto nómine:

16 But if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name.

17 Quóniam tempus est ut incípiat iudícium a domo Dei.

17 For the time is, that judgment should begin at the house of God.

Beda présbyter, Girvi in Británniæ et Scótiæ fínibus ortus est. Mónachus factus, vitam sic instítuit, ut, dum se ártium et doctrinárum stúdiis totum impénderet, nihil umquam de regulári disciplína remítteret. Nullum fuit doctrínæ genus, in quo non esset diligentíssime versátus; sed præcípua illi cura fuit divinárum Scripturárum meditátio, ita ut, sacerdótio initiátus, sacros explanáre libros aggréssus sit; in quo sanctórum Patrum doctrínis ádeo inhǽsit, ut nihil proférret nisi illórum iudício comprobátum, eorúmdem étiam fere verbis usus. Otium perósus semper, ex lectióne ad oratiónem transíbat, ac vicíssim ex oratióne ad lectiónem. Emendándis fidélium móribus, fídei vindicándæ atque asseréndæ libros plures conscrípsit, quibus tantam sui apud omnes opiniónem fecit, ut eius scripta, eo adhuc vivénte públice in ecclésiis legeréntur. Ætáte demum et labóribus fractus, pie obdormívit in Dómino. Eum Leo décimus tértius universális Ecclésiæ Doctórem declarávit.

Bede the priest was born at Jarrow, on the borders of England and Scotland. When a monk, he so arranged his life as to devote himself completely to the study of the liberal arts and sacred doctrine, without in any way relaxing the discipline of the Rule. There was no kind of learning in which he was not thoroughly versed; but his special interest was the study of the Scriptures; and when he was made a priest, he undertook the task of explaining the holy books. In doing so, he adhered to the teaching of the holy Fathers so closely that he would say nothing not already approved by their judgment, and he even made use of their very words. Abhorring laziness, he would go straight from reading to prayer and from prayer to reading. To raise the level of morality among Christians and to defend and spread the faith, he wrote many books, which gained him such a reputation with everyone that his writings were publicly read in churches during his own lifetime. At length, worn out with age and labours, he fell asleep peacefully in the Lord. Leo XIII declared him a Doctor of the universal Church.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

43:2 Deus áuribus nostris audívimus: * patres nostri annuntiavérunt nobis.

43:2 We have heard, O God, with our ears: * our fathers have declared to us,

43:2 Opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum, * et in diébus antíquis.

43:2 The work thou hast wrought in their days, * and in the days of old.

43:3 Manus tua gentes dispérdidit, et plantásti eos: * afflixísti pópulos, et expulísti eos.

43:3 Thy hand destroyed the Gentiles, and thou plantedst them: * thou didst afflict the people and cast them out.

43:4 Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et brácchium eórum non salvávit eos:

43:4 For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword: * neither did their own arm save them.

43:4 Sed déxtera tua, et brácchium tuum, et illuminátio vultus tui: * quóniam complacuísti in eis.

43:4 But thy right hand and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance: * because thou wast pleased with them.

43:5 Tu es ipse Rex meus et Deus meus: * qui mandas salútes Iacob.

43:5 Thou art thyself my king and my God, * who commandest the saving of Jacob.

43:6 In te inimícos nostros ventilábimus cornu: * et in nómine tuo spernémus insurgéntes in nobis.

43:6 Through thee we will push down our enemies with the horn: * and through thy name we will despise them that rise up against us.

43:7 Non enim in arcu meo sperábo: * et gládius meus non salvábit me.

43:7 For I will not trust in my bow: * neither shall my sword save me.

43:8 Salvásti enim nos de affligéntibus nos: * et odiéntes nos confudísti.

43:11 Avertísti nos retrórsum post inimícos nostros: * et qui odérunt nos, diripiébant sibi.

43:11 Thou hast made us turn our back to our enemies: * and they that hated us plundered for themselves.

43:12 Dedísti nos tamquam oves escárum: * et in géntibus dispersísti nos.

43:12 Thou hast given us up like sheep to be eaten: * thou hast scattered us among the nations.

43:13 Vendidísti pópulum tuum sine prétio: * et non fuit multitúdo in commutatiónibus eórum.

43:13 Thou hast sold thy people for no price: * and there was no reckoning in the exchange of them.

43:14 Posuísti nos oppróbrium vicínis nostris, * subsannatiónem et derísum his, qui sunt in circúitu nostro.

43:14 Thou hast made us a reproach to our neighbours, * a scoff and derision to them that are round about us.

43:15 Posuísti nos in similitúdinem géntibus: * commotiónem cápitis in pópulis.

43:15 Thou hast made us a byword among the Gentiles: * a shaking of the head among the people.

43:16 Tota die verecúndia mea contra me est, * et confúsio faciéi meæ coopéruit me.

43:16 All the day long my shame is before me: * and the confusion of my face hath covered me.

43:17 A voce exprobrántis, et obloquéntis: * a fácie inimíci, et persequéntis.

43:22 Shall not God search out these things: * for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

43:22 Quóniam propter te mortificámur tota die: * æstimáti sumus sicut oves occisiónis.

43:22 Because for thy sake we are killed all the day long: * we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

O thou, the heavens' eternal King,

Rerum Creátor ómnium,

Creator, unto thee we sing,

Æquális ante sǽcula

With God the Father ever One,

Semper Parénti Fílius:

Co-equal, co-eternal Son.

Nascénte qui mundo Faber

Thy hand, when first the world began,

Imáginem vultus tui

Made in thine own pure image man,

Tradens Adámo, nóbilem

And linked to Adam, sprung from earth,

Limo iugásti spíritum.

A living soul of heavenly birth.

Cum livor et fraus dǽmonis

And when by craft the envious foe

Fœdásset humánum genus:

Had marred thy noblest work below,

Tu, carne amíctus, pérditam

Clothed in our flesh, thou didst restore

Formam refórmas ártifex.

The image thou hadst made before.

Qui, natus olim e Vírgine,

Once wast thou born of Mary's womb;

Nunc e sepúlcro násceris,

And now, new-born from out the tomb,

Tecúmque nos a mórtuis

O Christ, thou bidd'st us rise with thee

Iubes sepúltos súrgere.

From death to immortality.

Qui, pastor ætérnus, gregem

Eternal Shepherd, thou dost lave

Aqua lavas baptísmatis:

Thy flock in pure baptismal wave,

Hæc est lavácrum méntium:

That mystic bath, that grave of sin,

Hæc est sepúlcrum críminum.

Where ransomed souls new life begin.

Nobis diu qui débitæ

Redeemer, thou for us didst deign

Redémptor affíxus cruci,

To hang upon the Cross of pain,

Nostræ dedísti pródigus

And give for us the lavish price

Prétium salútis sánguinem.

Of thine own blood in sacrifice.

Ut sis perénne méntibus

Grant, Lord, in thee each faithful mind

Paschále, Iesu, gáudium,

Unceasing paschal joy may find;

A morte dira críminum

And from the death of sin set free

Vitæ renátos líbera.

Souls newly born to life by thee.

Deo Patri sit glória,

To thee, once dead, who now dost live,

Et Fílio, qui a mórtuis

All glory, Lord, thy people give,

Surréxit, ac Paráclito,

Whom, with the Father, we adore,

In sempitérna sǽcula.

And Holy Ghost forevermore.

Amen.

Amen.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 17:1-11

John 17:1-11

In illo témpore: Sublevátis Iesus óculis in cælum, dixit: Pater, venit hora, clarífica Fílium tuum. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus lifted up His Eyes to heaven, and spoke these words: Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo

Tractatus 104 in Ioannem, sub med.

104th Tract on John

Póterat Dóminus noster, unigénitus et coætérnus Patri, in forma servi, et ex forma servi, si hoc opus esset, oráre siléntio: sed ita se Patri exhibére vóluit precatórem, ut meminísset nostrum se esse doctórem. Proínde eam, quam fecit oratiónem pro nobis, notam fecit et nobis: quóniam tanti magístri non solum ad ipsos sermocinátio, sed étiam pro ipsis ad Patrem orátio, discipulórum est ædificátio: et si illórum, qui hæc dicta áderant auditúri, profécto et nostra, qui fuerámus conscrípta lectúri.

Our Lord, the Only-begotten and co-eternal Son of the Father, was able, if need were, in and from the form of a servant, to pray in silence, but He thus manifested Himself in prayer, remembering that He is our Teacher. Thus He made known unto us the prayer which He made for us since He was so great a Master that, not only His discourse to them, but His prayer to the Father for them, is an up-building to His disciples. And if it was so for them who were there to hear, truly it is so for us also, for whose instruction it hath been written down.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Deus, cánticum novum cantábo tibi, allelúia:

℣. Deus meus es tu, et confitébor tibi: Deus meus es tu, et exaltábo te.

℣. Thou art my God, and I will praise thee Thou art my God, and I will exalt thee.

℟. In psaltério decem chordárum psallam tibi, allelúia, allelúia.

Quaprópter hoc quod ait: Pater, venit hora, clarífica Fílium tuum: osténdit, omne tempus, et quid, quando fáceret vel fíeri síneret, ab illo esse dispósitum, qui témpori súbditus non est: quóniam quæ futúra erant per síngula témpora, in Dei sapiéntia causas efficiéntes habent, in qua nulla sunt témpora. Non ergo credátur hæc hora fato urgénte venísse, sed Deo pótius ordinánte. Nec sidérea necéssitas Christi connéxuit passiónem: absit enim ut sídera mori cógerent síderum Conditórem.

Wherefore, by these words: “Father, the hour is come, glorify thy Son,” He showeth that all time, and all whatsoever He doth, or alloweth to be done, and the season wherein He will do or allow it, is alike ordained of Him Who is Himself not subject to time. Yea, all things which were then to come, or are yet to come now, have the reason why they should be, in the Wisdom of God, Which is Itself independent of all time. “The hour is come.” We must not believe that that hour was brought on by the march of destiny, but was by ordination of God. No stars decreed irresistibly that the time was come for Christ to suffer God forbid that the revolutions of His planets should force death on Him Who made them.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Clarificátum a Patre Fílium nonnúlli accípiunt in hoc, quod ei non pepércit, sed pro nobis ómnibus trádidit eum. Sed si passióne clarificátus dícitur, quanto magis resurrectióne? Nam in passióne magis eius humílitas quam cláritas commendátur, Apóstolo teste, qui dicit: Humiliávit semetípsum, factus obédiens usque ad mortem, mortem autem crucis. Deínde séquitur, et de eius clarificatióne iam dicit: Propter quod et Deus illum exaltávit, et donávit ei nomen, quod est super omne nomen: ut in nómine Iesu omne genu flectátur, cæléstium, terréstrium, et infernórum. Et omnis lingua confiteátur, quia Dóminus Iesus Christus in glória est Dei Patris. Hæc est clarificátio Dómini nostri Iesu Christi, quæ ab eius resurrectióne sumpsit exórdium.

Come think that the glorification of the Son by the Father was that “He spared Him not, but delivered Him up for us all.” Rom. viii. 32. But if we say that He was glorified by suffering, how much more shall we say that He was glorified by rising again While He suffered, His humbleness was more manifested than His glory, as witnesseth the Apostle, where he saith “He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross” then he addeth touching His glorification “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a Name which is above every name, that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth and that every tongue should confess that our Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father.” Phil. ii. 8-11. This is the glorification of our Lord Jesus Christ, that glorification whose first rays dawned on the Resurrection morning.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

52:6 For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: * they have been confounded, because God hath despised them.

Sermo sancti Leónis Papæ

From the Sermons of Pope St. Leo the Great

Sermone 1 de Ascensione Domini

1st on the Lords Ascension

Post beátam et gloriósam resurrectiónem Dómini nostri Iesu Christi, qua verum Dei templum, Iudáica impietáte resolútum, divína in tríduo poténtia suscitávit, quadragenárius hódie, dilectíssimi, sanctórum diérum explétus est númerus, sacratíssima ordinatióne dispósitus, et ad utilitátem nostræ eruditiónis impénsus: ut, dum a Dómino in hoc spátio mora præséntiæ corporális exténditur, fides resurrectiónis documéntis necessáriis munirétur. Mors enim Christi multum discipulórum corda turbáverat: et de supplício crucis, de emissióne spíritus, de exanimáti córporis sepultúra gravátis mœstitúdine méntibus, quidam diffidéntiæ torpor obrépserat.

After the blessed and glorious Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, wherein the Divine Power raised up in three days the true Temple of God Which the iniquity of the Jews had destroyed John ii. 19, God was pleased to ordain, by His Most Sacred Will, and in His Providence for our instruction and the profit of our souls, a season of forty days which season, dearly beloved brethren, doth end on this day. During that season the bodily Presence of the Lord still lingered on earth, that the reality of the fact of His having risen again from the dead might be armed with all needful proofs. The death of Christ had troubled the hearts of many of His disciples their thoughts were sad when they remembered His agony upon the Cross, His giving up of the Ghost, and the laying in the grave of His lifeless Body, and a sort of hesitation had begun to weigh on them.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Tempus est, ut revértar ad eum, qui me misit, dicit Dóminus: nolíte contristári, nec turbétur cor vestrum:

℟. My time is come that I should return unto Him That sent Me, saith the Lord. Be not sorrowful, neither let your heart be troubled.

* Rogo pro vobis Patrem, ut ipse vos custódiat, allelúia, allelúia.

* I pray the Father for you, that He may keep you. Alleluia, Alleluia.

℣. Nisi ego abíero, Paráclitus non véniet: cum assúmptus fúero, mittam vobis eum.

℣. If I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; where I am ascended, I will send Him unto you.

℟. Rogo pro vobis Patrem, ut ipse vos custódiat, allelúia, allelúia.

℟. I pray the Father for you, that He may keep you. Alleluia, Alleluia.

Unde beatíssimi Apóstoli, omnésque discípuli, qui et de éxitu crucis fúerant trépidi, et de fide resurrectiónis ambígui, ita sunt veritáte perspícua roboráti, ut, Dómino in cælórum eúnte sublímia, non solum nulla afficeréntur tristítia, sed étiam magno gáudio repleréntur. Et revéra magna et ineffábilis erat causa gaudéndi, cum in conspéctu sanctæ multitúdinis super ómnium creaturárum cæléstium dignitátem humáni géneris natúra conscénderet, supergressúra Angélicos órdines, et ultra Archangelórum altitúdines elevánda: nec ullis sublimitátibus modum suæ provectiónis habitúra, nisi ætérni Patris recépta conséssu, illíus glóriæ sociarétur in throno, cuius natúræ copulabátur in Fílio.

Hence the most blessed Apostles and all the disciples, who had been fearful at the finishing on the Cross, and doubtful of the trustworthiness of the rising again, were so strengthened by the clear demonstration of the fact, that, when they saw the Lord going up into the height of heaven, they sorrowed not, nay they were even filled with great joy And, in all verity, it was a great an unspeakable cause for joy to see the Manhood, in the presence of that the multitude of believers, exalted above all creatures even heavenly, rising above the ranks of the angelic armies and speeding Its glorious way where the most noble of the Archangels lie far behind, to rest no lower than that place where high above all principality and power, It taketh Its seat at the right hand of the Eternal Father, Sharer of His throne, and Partaker of His glory, and still of the very man's nature which the Son hath taken upon Him.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Non turbétur cor vestrum: ego vado ad Patrem; et cum assúmptus fúero a vobis, mittam vobis, allelúia,

℟. Let not your heart be troubled; I go unto the Father, and when I am taken from you, I will send unto you, alleluia,

* Spíritum veritátis, et gaudébit cor vestrum, allelúia.

This day is not only the possession of Paradise made sure unto us, but in the Person of our Head we are actually begun to enter into the heavenly mansions above. Through the unspeakable goodness of Christ we have gained more than ever we lost by the envy of the devil. We, whom our venomous enemy thrust from our first happy home, we, being made of one body with the Son of God, have by Him been given a place at the right hand of the Father with Whom He liveth and reigneth, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. Amen.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Marcum

From the Holy Gospel according to Mark

Marc 16:14-20

Mark 16:14-20

In illo témpore: Recumbéntibus úndecim discípulis, appáruit illis Iesus: et exprobrávit incredulitátem eórum et durítiam cordis, quia iis, qui víderant eum resurrexísse, non credidérunt. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus appeared unto the eleven disciples as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen Him after He was risen. And so on.

Homilía sancti Gregórii Papæ

Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great

Homilia 29 in Evangelia

29th on the Gospels

Quod resurrectiónem Domínicam discípuli tarde credidérunt, non tam illórum infírmitas, quam nostra, ut ita dicam, futúra fírmitas fuit. Ipsa namque resurréctio illis dubitántibus per multa arguménta monstráta est: quæ dum nos legéntes agnóscimus, quid áliud quam de illórum dubitatióne solidámur? Minus enim mihi María Magdaléne prǽstitit, quæ cítius crédidit, quam Thomas, qui diu dubitávit. Ille étenim dubitándo, vúlnerum cicatríces tétigit, et de nostro péctore dubitatiónis vulnus amputávit.

I may be allowed to say that the disciples' slowness to believe that the Lord had indeed risen from the dead, was not so much their weakness as our strength. In consequence of their doubts, the fact of the Resurrection was demonstrated by many infallible proofs. These proofs we read and acknowledge. What then assureth our faith, if not their doubt? For my part, I put my trust in Thomas, who doubted long, much more than in Mary Magdalene, who believed at once. Through his doubting, he came actually to handle the holes of the Wounds, and thereby closed up any wound of doubt in our hearts.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ego rogábo Patrem, et álium Paráclitum dabit vobis,

℟. I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter,

* Ut máneat vobíscum in ætérnum, Spíritum veritátis, allelúia.

* That He may abide with you for ever, even the Spirit of truth. Alleluia.

℣. Si enim non abíero, Paráclitus non véniet ad vos: si autem abíero, mittam eum ad vos.

℣. For if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.

℟. Ut máneat vobíscum in ætérnum, Spíritum veritátis, allelúia.

℟. That He may abide with you for ever, even the Spirit of truth. Alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Divínum auxílium máneat semper nobíscum.

Benediction. God's most mighty strength alway be His people's staff and stay.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Ad insinuándam quoque veritátem Domínicæ resurrectiónis, notándum nobis est quid Lucas réferat, dicens: Convéscens, præcépit eis ab Ierosólymis ne discéderent. Et post pauca: Vidéntibus illis, elevátus est, et nubes suscépit eum ab óculis eórum. Notáte verba, signáte mystéria. Convéscens elevátus est. Comédit, et ascéndit: ut vidélicet per efféctum comestiónis, véritas patésceret carnis. Marcus vero, priúsquam cælum Dóminus ascéndat, eum de cordis atque infidelitátis durítia increpásse discípulos mémorat. Qua in re quid considerándum est, nisi quod idcírco Dóminus tunc discípulos increpávit, cum eos corporáliter relíquit, ut verba, quæ recédens díceret, in corde audiéntium árctius impréssa remanérent?

Now confirm to our minds the trustworthiness of the fact that our Lord did indeed rise again from the dead, it is well for us to remark one of the statements of Luke Acts i. 4. “Eating together with them, He commanded them that they should not 1 John xiv. 16, 17 xvi. 7. depart from Jerusalem and a little afterward: “While they beheld, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.” Consider these words, note well these mysteries. After “eating together with them He was taken up.” He ate and ascended: that the fact of His eating might show the reality of the Body in Which He went up. But Mark telleth us that before the Lord ascended into heaven, He upbraided His disciples; with their unbelief and hardness of heart. From this I know not why we should gather, but that the Lord then upbraided His disciples, for whom He was about to be parted in the body, to the end that the words which He spoke unto them as He left them might be the deeper imprinted on their hearts.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ponis nubem ascénsum tuum, Dómine:

℟. Thou makest the clouds the chariot, O Lord,

* Qui ámbulas super pennas ventórum, allelúia.

* Thou walkest upon the wings of the wind. Alleluia.

℣. Confessiónem et decórem induísti, amíctus lumen sicut vestiméntum.

℣. Thou art clothed with honour and majesty, covering thyself with light as with a garment;

℟. Qui ámbulas super pennas ventórum, allelúia.

℟. Thou walkest upon the wings of the wind. Alleluia.

Increpáta ígitur eórum durítia, quid admonéndo dicat, audiámus: Eúntes in mundum univérsum, prædicáte Evangélium omni creatúræ. Numquid, fratres mei, sanctum Evangélium vel insensátis rebus, vel brutis animálibus fúerat prædicándum, ut de eo discípulis dicátur: Prædicáte omni creatúræ? Sed omnis creatúræ nómine signátur homo. Omnis autem creatúræ áliquid habet homo. Habet namque commúne esse cum lapídibus, vívere cum arbóribus, sentíre cum animálibus, intellégere cum Angelis. Si ergo commúne habet áliquid cum omni creatúra homo, iuxta áliquid omnis creatúra est homo. Omni ergo creatúræ prædicátur Evangélium, cum soli hómini prædicátur.

When then, He had rebuked the hardness of their heart, what command did He give them? Let us hear. “Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature.” Was the Holy Gospel, then my brethren, to be preached to thing insensate, or to brute beasts, that the Lord said to His disciples: “Preach the Gospel to every creature”? Nay, but by the words “every creature” we must understand man, in whom are combined qualities of all creatures. Being he hath in common with stones, life in common with trees, feeling in common with beasts, understanding in common with angels. If, then, man hath something in common with every creature, man is to a certain extent every creature. The Gospel, then, if it be preached to man only, is preached to every creature.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

77:20 Quóniam percússit petram, et fluxérunt aquæ: * et torréntes inundavérunt.

77:20 Because he struck the rock, and the waters gushed out, * and the streams overflowed.

77:20 Numquid et panem póterit dare, * aut paráre mensam pópulo suo?

77:37 But their heart was not right with him: * nor were they counted faithful in his covenant.

77:38 Ipse autem est miséricors, et propítius fiet peccátis eórum: * et non dispérdet eos.

77:38 But he is merciful, and will forgive their sins: * and will not destroy them.

77:38 Et abundávit ut avérteret iram suam: * et non accéndit omnem iram suam:

77:39 Et recordátus est quia caro sunt: * spíritus vadens et non rédiens.

77:40 Quóties exacerbavérunt eum in desérto, * in iram concitavérunt eum in inaquóso?

77:40 How often did they provoke him in the desert: * and move him to wrath in the place without water?

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

78:2 They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be meat for the fowls of the air: * the flesh of thy saints for the beasts of the earth.

78:3 They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem, * and there was none to bury them.

78:4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours: * a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.

78:5 How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: * shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?

78:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that have not known thee: * and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

78:9 Help us, O God, our saviour: and for the glory of thy name, O Lord, deliver us: * and forgive us our sins for thy name’s sake:

78:10 Ne forte dicant in géntibus: Ubi est Deus eórum? * et innotéscat in natiónibus coram óculis nostris.

78:10 Lest they should say among the Gentiles: Where is their God? * And let him be made known among the nations before our eyes,

80:15 Pro níhilo fórsitan inimícos eórum humiliássem: * et super tribulántes eos misíssem manum meam.

45:17 Israel is saved in the Lord with an eternal salvation: * you shall not be confounded, and you shall not be ashamed for ever and ever.

45:18 Quia hæc dicit Dóminus creans cælos, * ipse Deus formans terram, et fáciens eam, ipse plastes eius:

45:18 For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens, * God himself that formed the earth, and made it, the very maker thereof:

45:19 Non in vanum creávit eam, ut habitarétur, formávit eam: * Ego Dóminus, et non est álius.

45:19 He did not create it in vain: he formed it to be inhabited. * I am the Lord, and there is no other.

45:20 Non in abscóndito locútus sum, * in loco terræ tenebróso:

45:24 Tell ye, and come, and consult together: * who hath declared this from the beginning, who hath foretold this from that time?

45:25 Numquid non ego Dóminus, et non est ultra Deus absque me? * Deus iustus, et salvans non est præter me.

45:25 Have not I the Lord, and there is no God else besides me? * A just God and a saviour, there is none besides me.

45:26 Convertímini ad me, et salvi éritis, omnes fines terræ: * quia ego Deus, et non est álius.

45:26 Be converted to me, and you shall be saved, all ye ends of the earth: * for I am God, and there is no other.

45:27 I have sworn by myself, the word of justice shall go out of my mouth, * and shall not return:

45:28 Quia mihi curvábitur omne genu, * et iurábit omnis lingua.

45:29 Therefore shall he say: In the Lord are my justices and empire: * they shall come to him, and all that resist him shall be confounded.

138:1 Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me: * thou hast known my sitting down, and my rising up.

138:3 Intellexísti cogitatiónes meas de longe: * sémitam meam, et funículum meum investigásti.

138:3 Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: * my path and my life thou hast searched out.

138:4 Et omnes vias meas prævidísti: * quia non est sermo in lingua mea.

138:4 And thou hast foreseen all my ways: * for there is no speech on my tongue.

138:5 Ecce, Dómine, tu cognovísti ómnia novíssima, et antíqua: * tu formásti me, et posuísti super me manum tuam.

138:5 Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: * thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.

138:6 Mirábilis facta est sciéntia tua ex me: * confortáta est, et non pótero ad eam.

138:6 Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: * it is high, and I cannot reach to it.

138:7 Quo ibo a spíritu tuo? * et quo a fácie tua fúgiam?

138:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? * or whither shall I flee from thy face?

138:8 Si ascéndero in cælum, tu illic es: * si descéndero in inférnum, ades.

138:8 If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: * if I descend into hell, thou art present.

138:9 Si súmpsero pennas meas dilúculo, * et habitávero in extrémis maris:

138:9 If I take my wings early in the morning, * and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:

138:10 Étenim illuc manus tua dedúcet me: * et tenébit me déxtera tua.

138:10 Even there also shall thy hand lead me: * and thy right hand shall hold me.

138:11 Et dixi: Fórsitan ténebræ conculcábunt me: * et nox illuminátio mea in delíciis meis.

138:11 And I said: Perhaps darkness shall cover me: * and night shall be my light in my pleasures.

138:12 Quia ténebræ non obscurabúntur a te, † et nox sicut dies illuminábitur: * sicut ténebræ eius, ita et lumen eius.

138:12 But darkness shall not be dark to thee, † and night shall be light as the day: * the darkness thereof, and the light thereof are alike to thee.

138:13 Quia tu possedísti renes meos: * suscepísti me de útero matris meæ.

138:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: * thou hast protected me from my mother’s womb.

℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

138:14 Confitébor tibi quia terribíliter magnificátus es: † mirabília ópera tua, * et ánima mea cognóscit nimis.

138:14 I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: † wonderful are thy works, * and my soul knoweth right well.

138:15 Non est occultátum os meum a te, quod fecísti in occúlto: * et substántia mea in inferióribus terræ.

138:15 My bone is not hidden from thee, which thou hast made in secret: * and my substance in the lower parts of the earth.

138:16 Imperféctum meum vidérunt óculi tui, † et in libro tuo omnes scribéntur: * dies formabúntur, et nemo in eis.

138:16 Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, † and in thy book all shall be written: * days shall be formed, and no one in them.

138:17 Mihi autem nimis honorificáti sunt amíci tui, Deus: * nimis confortátus est principátus eórum.

138:17 But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: * their principality is exceedingly strengthened.

138:18 Dinumerábo eos, et super arénam multiplicabúntur: * exsurréxi, et adhuc sum tecum.

138:18 I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand: * I rose up and am still with thee.

138:19 Si occíderis, Deus, peccatóres: * viri sánguinum, declináte a me:

138:19 If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: * ye men of blood, depart from me:

138:20 Quia dícitis in cogitatióne: * Accípient in vanitáte civitátes tuas.

138:20 Because you say in thought: * They shall receive thy cities in vain.

138:21 Nonne qui odérunt te, Dómine, óderam? * et super inimícos tuos tabescébam?

138:21 Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: * and pined away because of thy enemies?

138:22 Perfécto ódio óderam illos: * et inimíci facti sunt mihi.

138:22 I have hated them with a perfect hatred: * and they are become enemies to me.

138:23 Proba me, Deus, et scito cor meum: * intérroga me, et cognósce sémitas meas.

138:23 Prove me, O God, and know my heart: * examine me, and know my paths.

138:24 Et vide, si via iniquitátis in me est: * et deduc me in via ætérna.

Sermo sancti Petri Canísii Presbýteri

Sermon of St. Peter Canisius, Priest

De Maria Deipara Virgine incomparabili, lib. 15, c. 13

On the Incomparable Virgin Mary, Mother of God

Cur beatíssimam Vírginem Maríam Regínæ nómine, Damascénum, Athanásium aliósque secúti, non compellémus, cuius et pater David rex ínclitus, et fílius Rex regum Dominúsque dominántium sine fine ímperans, laudem in Scriptúris præstantíssimam tenent? Regína est ínsuper, si cum illis conferátur, quibus, véluti régibus, cæléste regnum cum Christo, Rege summo, cóntigit, útpote illíus coherédibus, et in eódem véluti throno, ut Scriptúra lóquitur, cum illo collocátis. Regína est étiam nulli electórum secúnda, sed simul Angelis et homínibus tanto præláta dígnius, quo nihil illa sublímius ac sánctius esse potest, quæ sola cum Deo Patre Fílium habet commúnem, et quæ supra se Deum et Christum tantum, infra se vero réliqua videt ómnia.

If we follow St. John Damascene, St. Athanasius and others, are we not forced to call Mary Queen, since her father David receiveth the highest praise in Scripture as a renowned king, and her son as King of kings and Lord of lords, reigning forever? She is Queen, moreover, when compared with the Saints who reign like kings in the heavenly kingdom, co-heirs with Christ, the great King, placed on the same throne with him, as the Scripture saith. And as Queen she is second to none of the elect, but in dignity is raised so high above both Angels and men that nothing can be higher or holier than she, who alone hath the same Son as God the Father, and who seeth above her only God and Christ, and below her creatures other than herself.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Súscipe verbum, Virgo María, quod tibi a Dómino transmíssum est:

℟. Receive the word, O Virgin Mary, sent to thee by the Lord:

* Ecce concípies et páries Deum páriter et hóminem. Allelúia.

Magnus Athanásius perspícue dixit: Maríam non modo Deíparam, sed étiam Regínam et Dóminam próprie veréque censéri, quandóquidem Christus ex ipsa matre Vírgine natus, Deus et Dominus idémque Rex máneat. De hac ígitur Regína dictum illud Psalmógraphi interpretátur: Adstitit Regína a dextris tuis in vestítu deauráto. Non ergo solum cæli, sed et cælórum Regína recte dicitur María, útpote mater Regis Angelórum, Regísque cælórum et amíca et sponsa. A te vero, augustíssima Regína, eadémque fidíssima Mater María, quam sine fructu pie nullus implórat, et cui mortáles omnes beneficiórum memória sempitérna devíncti sunt, étiam atque étiam reverénter oro et óbsecro, ut hoc qualecúmque observántiæ erga te meæ testimónium ratum et gratum habére velis, utque obláti múneris exiguitátem studiósa offeréntis voluntáte metíri ac tuo præpoténti Fílio comprobáre dignéris.

The great Athanasius said clearly: Mary is not only the Mother of God, but also can be properly and truly called Queen and Lady, since in fact the Christ who was born of the Virgin Mother is God and Lord and also King. It is to this Queen, therefore, that the Psalmist's words are applied: The Queen taketh her place at thy right hand in garments of gold. Thus Mary is rightly called Queen, not only of heaven, but also of the heavens, as the Mother of the King of Angels, and as the Bride and beloved of the King of the heavens. O Mary, most august Queen and most faithful Mother, to whom no one prayeth in vain who prayeth devoutly, and to whom all mortal men are bound by the enduring memory of so many benefits, again and again reverently I beseech thee to accept and be pleased with every evidence of my devotion to thee, to value the poor gift I offer according to the zeal with which it is offered, and to recommend it to thine all-powerful Son.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ecce pósitus est hic in ruínam et resurrectiónem multórum,

℟. Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and the rise of many,

* Et tuam ipsíus ánimam pertransíbit gládius. Allelúia.

* And thine own soul a sword shall pierce. Alleluia.

℣. Ave, Christi Mater, passiónis sócia, totíus mundi Regína.

℟. Et tuam ipsíus ánimam pertransíbit gládius. Allelúia.

℟. And thine own soul a sword shall pierce. Alleluia.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Benediction. May the Spirit's fire Divine in our hearts enkindled shine.

Ex Lítteris Encýclicis Pii Papæ duodécimi

From the Encyclical Letter of Pope Pius XII

Encyclica «Ad cæli Regínam», diei 11 Octobris 1954

Ad cæli Reginam, diei 11 Octobris 1954

E Christiánæ vetustátis monuméntis, e litúrgicis précibus, ex índito christiáno pópulo religiónis sensu, ex opéribus arte conféctis, úndique collégimus voces quæ ásserunt Deíparam Vírginem regáli dignitáte præstáre; ratiónes étiam, quas sancta theología ex divínæ fídei thesáuro deducéndo ástruit, eándem veritátem prorsus confirmáre argúimus. Tot ex allátis testimóniis quasi latíssime résonans concéntus effícitur, qui extóllit régii honóris præcélsum fastígium Dei hominúmque Matris, cui cuncta creáta subsunt, quæ est: «exaltáta super choros Angelórum ad cæléstia regna». Cum vero, matúro ponderatóque consílio, persuásum Nobis habeámus magna oritúra esse Ecclésiæ emoluménta, si quasi in suo candelábro rutilántior lucérna pósita, illa sólide probáta véritas maniféstior ómnibus refúlgeat, Apostólica Nostra Potestáte decérnimus et institúimus festum Maríæ Regínæ, quod toto terrárum orbe quotánnis die trigésimo primo mensis maii est celebrándum.

From the documents of ancient Christianity, from the prayers of the liturgy, from the innate religious sense of the Christian people, from works of art, from all sides we gather witnesses which assert that the Virgin Mother of God excelleth in queenly dignity. And we have set forth the reasons which sacred theology deduces from the treasury of divine faith to confirm the same truth. All these witnesses form a sort of chorus, proclaiming far and wide the supreme queenly honour granted to the Mother of God and man, who is above all created things and exalted over the choirs of Angels to reign in heaven. Thus it is that after mature and thoughtful consideration we have been persuaded that great benefits would flow to the Church if, like a light that illumines more brightly when placed in its stand, this solidly proved truth were to shine out more clearly to all, and so, by Our Apostolic Authority, we decree and institute the feast of Mary, Queen, which is to be celebrated every year on the thirty-first day of May throughout the world.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 1:26-33

Luke 1:26-33

In illo témpore: Missus est Angelus Gábriel a Deo in civitátem Galilǽæ, cui nomen Názareth, ad Vírginem desponsátam viro, cui nomen erat Ioseph de domo David, et nomen Vírginis María. Et réliqua.

In that time: In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth, to a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. And so on.

Homilía sancti Bonaventúræ Epíscopi

Homily of St. Bonaventure, Bishop

Sermo de regia dignitate Beatæ Mariæ Virginis

Sermon on the Royal Dignity of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Beáta María Virgo, summi Regis mater est per generósam conceptiónem, secúndum quod dícitur in verbo sibi dicto ab Angelo: Ecce inquit, concípies et páries fílium; et póstea: Dabit ei Dóminus sedem David patris eius, et regnábit in domo Iacob in ætérnum, et regni eius non erit finis. Ac si apérte dicat: Concípies et páries fílium Regem, in regáli sólio æternáliter residéntem, ac per hoc tamquam Mater Regis regnábis, et ut Regína in regáli sólio residébis. Si enim decet filium honórem matri dare, decet ut ei commúnicet thronum regálem; unde Virgo María, quia concépit eum, qui habet in fémore scriptum: Rex regum et Dóminus dominántium, statim ex quo concépit Fílium Dei, Regína fuit, non solum terræ, sed étiam cæli, quod designátum est in Apocalýpsi ubi dícitur: Signum magnum appáruit in cælo: múlier amícta sole, et luna sub pédibus eius, et in cápite eius coróna stellárum duódecim.

The Blessed Virgin Mary is the Mother of the great King by reason of a noble kind of conception, according to the message given her by the Angel. Behold, he said, thou shalt conceive and shalt bring forth a son; and again, the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father, and he shall be king over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there shall be no end. This is as if to say in so many words, Thou wilt conceive and bear a son who is King, eternally reigning on the royal throne, and as Queen thou wilt be seated on the royal throne. For if it becometh a son to give honour to his mother, it is also fitting that he share his royal throne with her; and so the Virgin Mary, because she conceived him on whose thigh was written, King of kings and Lord of lords, was Queen not only of earth but also of heaven as soon as she conceived the Son of God. This is indicated in the Apocalypse where it saith: A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon was under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ecce Virgo concípiet et páriet Fílium,

℟. Behold a Virgin shall conceive and bear a Son,

* Et vocábitur nomen eius Admirábilis, Deus, Fortis. Allelúia.

* And his name shall be called Wonderful, God, the Mighty One. Alleluia.

℣. Super sólium David et super regnum eius sedébit in ætérnum.

℣. He shall sit upon the throne of David, and reign over his kingdom forever.

María Regína est præclaríssima quantum ad glóriam, quod bene desígnat Prophéta in psalmo qui speciáliter est de Christo et Vírgine María, ubi primo dícitur de Christo: Sedes tua, Deus, in sǽculum sǽculi, et paulo post de Vírgine: Adstitit regína a dextris tuis, hoc est in potióribus bonis, quod quidem dictum est quantum ad glóriam mentis. Séquitur: In vestítu deauráto, in quo exprímitur vestítus gloriósæ immortalitátis, quem décuit habére Vírginem in sua Assumptióne. Absit enim ut vestiméntum illud quo opértus est Christus, quod étiam fuit perfécte sanctificátum in terra per Verbum incarnátum, fiat cibus vérmium. Sicut décuit Christum dare grátiam Matri suæ pleníssimam in sua Conceptióne, sic décuit tribúere pleníssimam glóriam in ipsíus Matris Assumptióne. Et ídeo tenéndum est quod Virgo, gloriósa in ánima et córpore, sédeat iuxta Fílium.

Mary the Queen outshineth all others in glory, as the Prophet clearly showeth in the Psalm which particularly concerns Christ and the Virgin Mary. It first saith of Christ: Thy throne, O God, standeth forever and ever, and shortly thereafter of the Virgin: The Queen taketh her place at thy right hand, that is, in the position of highest blessedness, for it referreth to glory of soul. It continueth: In garments of gold, by which is meant the clothing of glorious immortality which was proper to the Virgin in her Assumption. For it could not be that the garment which clothed Christ, the garment completely sanctified on earth by the incarnate Word, should be the food of worms. As it was fitting for Christ to grant the fullness of grace to his Mother at her Conception, so was it fitting that he grant her the fullness of glory at her Assumption. And so we are to hold that the Virgin, glorious in soul and body, is enthroned next to her Son.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Exaltáta es, sancta Dei Génetrix,

María Regína est et dispensátrix grátiæ, quod designátum fuit in libro Esther, ubi dícitur: Parvus fons qui crevit in flúvium, et in lucem et solem convérsus est. Virgo Maria sub figura Esther comparátur diffusióni fontis et lúminis, propter diffusiónem grátiæ quantum ad dúplicem usum, actiónis licet et contemplatiónis. Grátia enim Dei, quæ est medicatíva géneris humáni, per ipsam ad nos descéndit quasi per aquædúctum, quia ad ipsam Vírginem pértinet dispensátio grátiæ non per modum princípii, sed per modum mériti. Mérito ígitur Virgo María est excellentíssima Regína in comparatiónem ad plebem, cum ímpetrat véniam, súperat pugnam, et distríbuit grátiam, et consequénter perdúcit ad glóriam.

Mary the Queen is also the distributrix of grace. This is indicated in the book of Esther, where it is said: The little spring which grew into a river and was turned into a light and into the sun. The Virgin Mary, under the type of Esther, is compared to the outpouring of a spring and of light, because of the diffusion of grace for two uses, that is, for action and for contemplation. For the grace of God, which is a healing for the human race, descendeth to us through her as if through an aqueduct, since the dispensing of grace is attributed to the Virgin not as to its beginning, but because of her position through merit. By position the Virgin Mary is a most excellent Queen towards her people: she obtaineth forgiveness, overcometh strife, distributeth grace, and thereby she leadeth them to glory.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

93:18 Si dicébam: Motus est pes meus: * misericórdia tua, Dómine, adiuvábat me.

93:18 If I said: My foot is moved: * thy mercy, O Lord, assisted me.
