De Epístola beati Pauli Apóstoli ad Romános

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Romans

Rom 4:1-8

Rom 4:1-8

1 Quid ergo dicémus invenísse Abraham patrem nostrum secúndum carnem?

1 What shall we say then that Abraham hath found, who is our father according to the flesh.

2 Si enim Abraham ex opéribus iustificátus est, habet glóriam, sed non apud Deum.

2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory, but not before God.

3 Quid enim dicit Scriptúra? Crédidit Abraham Deo: et reputátum est illi ad iustítiam.

3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.

4 Ei autem, qui operátur, merces non imputátur secúndum grátiam, sed secúndum débitum.

4 Now to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned according to grace, but according to debt.

5 Ei vero, qui non operátur, credénti autem in eum, qui iustíficat ímpium, reputátur fides eius ad iustítiam secúndum propósitum grátiæ Dei.

5 But to him that worketh not, yet believeth in him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reputed to justice, according to the purpose of the grace of God.

6 Sicut et David dicit beatitúdinem hóminis, cui Deus accépto fert iustítiam sine opéribus:

6 As David also termeth the blessedness of a man, to whom God reputeth justice without works:

7 Beáti, quorum remíssæ sunt iniquitátes, et quorum tecta sunt peccáta.

7 Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

8 Beátus vir, cui non imputávit Dóminus peccátum.

8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ecce Agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccáta mundi: ecce de quo dicébam vobis: Qui post me venit, ante me factus est:

℟. Behold the Lamb of God, behold Him Which taketh away the sins of the world; behold Him of Whom I said unto you: He That cometh after me is preferred before me

* Cuius non sum dignus corrígiam calceaménti sólvere.

* Whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

℣. Qui de terra est, de terra lóquitur: qui de cælo venit, super omnes est.

℣. He that is of the earth speaketh of the earth; He That cometh from heaven is above all.

℟. Cuius non sum dignus corrígiam calceaménti sólvere.

℟. Whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Unigénitus Dei Fílius nos benedícere et adiuváre dignétur.

Benediction. May the Son, the Sole-begotten, mercifully bless and keep us.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Rom 4:9-12

Rom 4:9-12

9 Beatitúdo ergo hæc in circumcisióne tantum manet, an étiam in præpútio? Dícimus enim quia reputáta est Abrahæ fides ad iustítiam.

9 This blessedness then, doth it remain in the circumcision only, or in the uncircumcision also? For we say that unto Abraham faith was reputed to justice.

10 Quómodo ergo reputáta est? in circumcisióne, an in præpútio? Non in circumcisióne, sed in præpútio.

10 How then was it reputed? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

11 Et signum accépit circumcisiónis, signáculum iustítiæ fídei, quæ est in præpútio: ut sit pater ómnium credéntium per præpútium, ut reputétur et illis ad iustítiam:

11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the justice of the faith, which he had, being uncircumcised; that he might be the father of all them that believe, being uncircumcised, that unto them also it may be reputed to justice:

12 Et sit pater circumcisiónis non iis tantum, qui sunt ex circumcisióne, sed et iis, qui sectántur vestígia fídei, quæ est in præpútio patris nostri Abrahæ.

12 And might be the father of circumcision; not to them only, that are of the circumcision, but to them also that follow the steps of the faithful, that is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Dies sanctificátus illúxit nobis: veníte, gentes, et adoráte Dóminum:

℟. This day which is breaking is holy; O come, ye Gentiles, and worship the Lord.

* Quia hódie descéndit lux magna in terris.

* For this day is much light come down unto us from heaven.

℣. Hæc dies quam fecit Dóminus, exsultémus et lætémur in ea.

℣. This is the day which the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.

℟. Quia hódie descéndit lux magna in terris.

℟. For this day is much light come down unto us from heaven.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Rom 4:13-17

Rom 4:13-17

13 Non enim per legem promíssio Abrahæ, aut sémini eius, ut heres esset mundi: sed per iustítiam fídei.

13 For not through the law was the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, that he should be heir of the world; but through the justice of faith.

14 Si enim qui ex lege, herédes sunt: exinaníta est fides, abólita est promíssio.

14 For if they who are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, the promise is made of no effect.

15 Lex enim iram operátur. Ubi enim non est lex: nec prævaricátio.

15 For the law worketh wrath. For where there is no law, neither is there transgression.

16 Ideo ex fide, ut secúndum grátiam firma sit promíssio omni sémini, non ei, qui ex lege est solum, sed et ei, qui ex fide est Abrahæ, qui pater est ómnium nostrum

16 Therefore is it of faith, that according to grace the promise might be firm to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all,

17 (sicut scriptum est: Quia patrem multárum géntium pósui te) ante Deum, cui crédidit, qui vivíficat mórtuos, et vocat ea quæ non sunt, tamquam ea quæ sunt.

17 As it is written: I have made thee a father of many nations, before God, whom he believed, who quickeneth the dead; and calleth those things that are not, as those that are.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Benedíctus qui venit in nómine Dómini, Deus Dóminus, et illúxit nobis:

Sermo sancti Leónis Papæ

From the Sermons of Pope St. Leo the Great.

Sermo 7 de Nativitate Domini

7th for Christmas

Festivitátis hodiérnæ, dilectíssimi, verus venerátor est, et pius cultor, qui nec de Incarnatióne Dómini áliquid falsum, nec de Deitáte áliquid sentit indígnum. Paris enim perículi malum est, si illi aut natúræ nostræ véritas, aut Patérnæ glóriæ negátur æquálitas. Cum ergo ad intellegéndum sacraméntum nativitátis Christi, qua de Matre vírgine est ortus, accédimus, abigátur procul terrenárum calígo ratiónum, et ab illuminátæ fídei óculo mundánæ sapiéntiæ fumus abscédat.

Dearly beloved brethren, whosoever will keep truly and honour piously this day's festival, it is necessary for him neither to think falsely of the Lord's Incarnation, nor meanly of the Lord's Godhead. For as there is danger, on the one hand, of denying the truth of Christ's participation of our nature, so is there no less danger, on the other, of doing despite to the equality of His glory with the glory of the Father. Wherefore, when we draw near to understand the mystery of Christ's Birth, wherein He was born of the Virgin Mary, we must leave the clouds of earthly imagination behind and pierce the fog of human wisdom with the eye of enlightened faith.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Congratulámini mihi, omnes qui dilígitis Dóminum:

℟. Rejoice with me, all ye that love the Lord.

* Quia, cum essem párvula, plácui Altíssimo, et de meis viscéribus génui Deum et hóminem.

* For while I was yet little I pleased the Most High, and from my womb have I brought forth God and man.

℣. Beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes, quia ancíllam húmilem respéxit Deus.

℣. All generations shall call me blessed, for God hath regarded the lowliness of His hand-maiden.

℟. Quia, cum essem párvula, plácui Altíssimo, et de meis viscéribus génui Deum et hóminem.

℟. For while I was yet little I pleased the Most High, and from my womb have I brought forth God and man.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Christus perpétuæ det nobis gáudia vitæ.

Benediction. May Christ to all His people give, for ever in His sight to live.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Divína est enim auctóritas, cui crédimus: divína est doctrína, quam séquimur. Quóniam sive legis testificatióni, sive oráculis prophetárum, sive evangélicæ tubæ interiórem admoveámus audítum; verum est, quod Ioánnes plenus Spíritu Sancto intónuit: In princípio erat Verbum, et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum. Hoc erat in princípio apud Deum. Omnia per ipsum facta sunt, et sine ipso factum est nihil. Et simíliter verum est, quod idem prædicátor adiécit: Verbum caro factum est et habitávit in nobis: et vídimus glóriam eius, glóriam quasi Unigéniti a Patre.

The authority on which we believe is the authority of God Himself; the teaching which we follow is the teaching of God Himself. Wherefore whether we lend the ear of our mind to the testimony of the Law, or to the revelations of the Prophets, or to the full pealing of the Gospel trumpet, that is true, which John the Son of Thunder, uttered, when he was filled with the Holy Ghost, and said: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The Same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made. True also is his witness when he saith: The Word was made Flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the Only-begotten of the Father. John i. 1-3, 14.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Confirmátum est cor Vírginis, in quo divína mystéria, Angelo nuntiánte, concépit: tunc speciósum forma præ fíliis hóminum castis suscépit viscéribus:

℟. The heart of the Virgin was fixed, when the Angel declared unto her the mystery of God, and she conceived, then did she receive in her pure womb Him That is fairer than the children of men.

* Et benedícta in ætérnum, Deum nobis prótulit et hóminem.

* And, she that is blessed for ever, brought forth for us God and man.

℣. Domus pudíci péctoris templum repénte fit Dei: intácta nésciens virum, verbo concépit Fílium.

℣. Soon rises, in that modest shrine, The Temple of the Lord Divine The stainless and unwedded one, Within her womb conceived the Son.

℟. Et benedícta in ætérnum, Deum nobis prótulit et hóminem.

℟. And, she that is blessed for ever, brought forth for us God and man.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Ignem sui amóris accéndat Deus in córdibus nostris.

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

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Reading 6

In utráque ergo natúra idem est Dei Fílius, nostra suscípiens, et própria non amíttens: in hómine hóminem rénovans, in se incommutábilis persevérans. Déitas enim, quæ illi cum Patre commúnis est, nullum detriméntum omnipoténtiæ súbiit, nec Dei formam servi forma violávit: quia summa et sempitérna esséntia, quæ se ad humáni géneris inclinávit salútem, nos quidem in suam glóriam tránstulit, sed quod erat, esse non déstitit. Unde cum Unigénitus Dei minórem se Patre confitétur, cui se dicit æquálem, veritátem in se formæ utriúsque demónstrat: ut et humánam probet imparílitas, et divínam decláret æquálitas.

The Person of the Son of God therefore remaineth unchanged and one, though He have two natures, keeping His own, and taking ours. He appeareth as man to be the restorer of men, but abideth all the while in His immutable Godhead. That Godhead which He shareth with the Father was not a whit the less Almighty, nor did the form of a servant touch the form of God to derogate from it. The Most High and Everlasting Being, bending down for man's salvation, took the Manhood into His glory; He ceased not to be That which He is from everlasting. Hence we see the Only-begotten Son of God in one place confessing that the Father is greater than He, John xiv. 28, and in another declaring that He and the Father are One, x. 30. This is an evident proof of the distinction of His two natures, and the unity of His Person; for He is inferior to the Father as touching His Manhood, and yet equal to the Father as touching His Godhead, and yet, though He be God and Man, He is not two, but One Christ.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Benedícta et venerábilis es, Virgo María, quæ sine tactu pudóris invénta es mater Salvatóris:

℟. Blessed and worshipful art thou, O Virgin Mary; from thee, still maiden undefiled, the Saviour came a little Child.

* Iacébat in præsépio, et fulgébat in cælo.

* He Whose glory filled the heavens lay in a manger.

℣. Dómine, audívi audítum tuum, et tímui: considerávi ópera tua, et expávi: in médio duórum animálium.

℣. O Lord, I have heard thy speech and was afraid; I considered thy works and trembled. O Thou That dwellest between the two living creatures!

℟. Iacébat in præsépio, et fulgébat in cælo.

℟. He Whose glory filled the heavens lay in a manger.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 2:21

Luke 2:21

In illo témpore: Postquam consummáti sunt dies octo, ut circumciderétur Puer: vocátum est nomen eius Iesus. Et réliqua.

In that time, after eight days were accomplished, that the child should be circumcised, his name was called Jesus. And so on.

Homilía sancti Ambrósii Epíscopi

Homily by St. Ambrose, Bishop of Milan.

Liber 2 in cap. 2 Lucæ, circa medium

Book ii on Luke ii

Circumcíditur ítaque Puer. Quis est iste puer, nisi ille, de quo dictum est: Puer natus est nobis, Fílius datus est nobis? Factus est enim sub lege, ut eos, qui sub lege essent, lucrifáceret. Ut sísterent eum Dómino. Quid sit autem in Ierúsalem sisti Dómino, dícerem, nisi in Isaíæ comméntis ante dixíssem. Circumcísus enim vítiis, Domínico dignus iudicátur obtútu; quia, Oculi Dómini super iustos. Vides omnem legis véteris sériem fuísse typum futúri: nam et circumcísio purgatiónem signíficat delictórum.

So the Child is circumcised. This is the Child of Whom it is said: Unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given, Isa. ix. 6. Made under the law to redeem them that were under the law. Gal. iv. 4. To present Him to the Lord,

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

22. In my Commentary on Isaiah I have already explained what is meant by being presented to the Lord in Jerusalem, and therefore I will not enter into the subject again. He that is circumcised in heart gaineth the protection of God, for the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous. Ps. xxxiii. 16. Ye will see that as all the ceremonies of the old law were types of realities in the new, so the circumcision of the body signified the cleansing of the heart from the guilt of sin.

℟. Deo grátias.

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

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Sancta et immaculáta virgínitas, quibus te láudibus éfferam, néscio:

* Quia quem cæli cápere non póterant, tuo grémio contulísti.

℟. O Mary, how holy and how spotless is thy virginity! I am too dull to praise thee!

℣. Benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui.

* For thou hast borne in thy breast Him Whom the heavens cannot contain.

℟. Quia quem cæli cápere non póterant, tuo grémio contulísti.

℣. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

℟. For thou hast borne in thy breast Him Whom the heavens cannot contain.

℣. 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.

Sed quóniam prona quadam cupiditáte peccándi, humánæ carnis et mentis fragílitas inextricabílibus vítiis implicátur, eo per octávum circumcisiónis diem culpæ totíus futúra purgátio, resurrectiónis præfigurabátur ætáte. Hoc est enim illud: Quia omne masculínum adapériens vulvam, sanctum Dómino vocábitur. Verbis enim legis promittebátur Vírginis partus. Et vere sanctus, quia immaculátus. Dénique ipsum esse, qui lege signétur, in eúndem modum ab Angelo repetíta verba declárant: Quod nascétur, inquit, Sanctum, vocábitur Fílius Dei.

But since the body and mind of man remain yet infected with a proneness' to sin, the circumcision of the eighth day is also a type of that complete cleansing from sin which we shall have at the resurrection. This ceremony was also performed in obedience to the commandment of God: Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy unto the Lord. These words were written with especial reference to the delivery of the Blessed Virgin. Truly He That opened her womb was holy, for He was altogether without spot, and we may gather that the law was written specially for Him from the words of the Angel: That Holy Thing Which shall be born of thee, shall be called the Son of God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Nésciens Mater Virgo virum, péperit sine dolóre:

℟. The Virgin-Mother that knew not a man, bore, but travailed not.

* Salvatórem sæculórum, ipsum Regem Angelórum, sola Virgo lactábat úbere de cælo pleno.

* She fed the Saviour of the world, The King of Angel hosts above, Jesus, our Redeemer blest, From the fountain of her breast.

℣. Domus pudíci péctoris templum repénte fit Dei: intácta nésciens virum, verbo concépit Fílium.

℣. Soon rises in that modest shrine, The Temple of the Lord Divine; The stainless and unwedded one, Within her womb conceived the Son.

℟. Salvatórem sæculórum, ipsum Regem Angelórum, sola Virgo lactábat úbere de cælo pleno.

℟. She fed the Saviour of the world, The King of Angel hosts above, Jesus, our Redeemer blest, From the fountain of her breast.

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

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

℟. Salvatórem sæculórum, ipsum Regem Angelórum, sola Virgo lactábat úbere de cælo pleno.

℟. She fed the Saviour of the world, The King of Angel hosts above, Jesus, our Redeemer blest, From the fountain of her breast.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Ad societátem cívium supernórum perdúcat nos Rex Angelórum.

Benediction. May He that is the Angels' King to that high realm His people bring.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Solus enim per ómnia ex natis de fémina sanctus Dóminus Iesus, qui terrénæ contágia corruptélæ, immaculáti partus novitáte non sénserit, et cælésti maiestáte depúlerit. Nam si lítteram sequámur: quómodo sanctus omnis másculus, cum multos sceleratíssimos fuísse non láteat? Numquid sanctus Achab? numquid sancti pseudoprophétæ, quos ad Elíæ preces ultor cæléstis iniúriæ ignis absúmpsit? Sed ille sanctus, quem in figúra futúri mystérii pia legis divínæ præscrípta signábant; eo quod solus sanctæ Ecclésiæ vírginis ad generándos pópulos Dei, immaculátæ fecunditátis aperíret genitále secrétum.

Among all that are born of women the Lord Jesus Christ stood alone in holiness. Fresh from His immaculate Birth, He felt no contagion from human corruption, and His heavenly Majesty drove it away. If we are to follow the letter and say that every male that openeth the womb is holy, how shall we explain that so many have been unrighteous? Was Ahab holy? Were the false prophets holy? Were they holy on whom Elijah justly called down fire from heaven? But He to Whom the sacred commandment of the law of God is mystically directed is the Holy One of Israel; Who also alone hath opened the secret womb of His holy Virgin-bride the Church, filling her with a sinless fruitfulness to give birth to Christian souls.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

The morrow is the Octave of holy Stephen the Proto-Martyr. At Rome are commemorated upon the same day many holy martyrs who defied the edict of the Emperor Diocletian whereby it was commanded to give up the holy books, they being willing rather to give over their own bodies to the executioners than to give unto dogs that which was holy.

January 2nd 2034, the 12th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Act 3:1-8

Acts 3:1-8

1 Petrus autem et Ioánnes ascendébant in templum ad horam oratiónis nonam.

1 Now Peter and John went up into the temple at the ninth hour of prayer.

2 Et quidam vir, qui erat claudus ex útero matris suæ, baiulabátur; quem ponébant cotídie ad portam templi, quæ dícitur Speciósa, ut péteret eleemósynam ab introëúntibus in templum.

2 And a certain man who was lame from his mother's womb, was carried: whom they laid every day at the gate of the temple, which is called Beautiful, that he might ask alms of them that went into the temple.

3 Is, cum vidísset Petrum et Ioánnem incipiéntes introíre in templum, rogábat ut eleemósynam accíperet.

3 He, when he had seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked to receive an alms.

4 Intuens autem in eum Petrus cum Ioánne, dixit: Réspice in nos.

4 But Peter with John fastening his eyes upon him, said: Look upon us.

5 At ille intendébat in eos, sperans se áliquid acceptúrum ab eis.

5 But he looked earnestly upon them, hoping that he should receive something of them.

6 Petrus autem dixit: Argéntum et aurum non est mihi: quod autem hábeo, hoc tibi do: In nómine Iesu Christi Nazaréni surge, et ámbula.

6 But Peter said: Silver and gold I have none; but what I have, I give thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, arise, and walk.

7 Et, apprehénsa manu eius déxtera, allevávit eum, et prótinus consolidátæ sunt bases eius, et plantæ.

7 And taking him by the right hand, he lifted him up, and forthwith his feet and soles received strength.

8 Et exsíliens stetit, et ambulábat; et intrávit cum illis in templum ámbulans, et exsíliens, et laudans Deum.

8 And he leaping up, stood, and walked, and went in with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God.

10 Cognoscébant autem illum, quod ipse erat, qui ad eleemósynam sedébat ad Speciósam portam templi; et impléti sunt stupóre et éxtasi in eo, quod contígerat illi.

10 And they knew him, that it was he who sat begging alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened to him.

11 Cum tenéret autem Petrum et Ioánnem, cucúrrit omnis pópulus ad eos ad pórticum, quæ appellátur Salomónis, stupéntes.

11 And as he held Peter and John, all the people ran to them to the porch which is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

12 Videns autem Petrus, respóndit ad pópulum: Viri Israëlítæ, quid mirámini in hoc, aut nos quid intuémini, quasi nostra virtúte aut potestáte fecérimus hunc ambuláre?

12 But Peter seeing, made answer to the people: Ye men of Israel, why wonder you at this? or why look you upon us, as if by our strength or power we had made this man to walk?

13 Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Iacob, Deus patrum nostrórum glorificávit Fílium suum Iesum, quem vos quidem tradidístis et negástis ante fáciem Piláti, iudicánte illo dimítti.

13 The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus, whom you indeed delivered up and denied before the face of Pilate, when he judged he should be released.

14 Vos autem sanctum et iustum negástis, et petístis virum homicídam donári vobis:

14 But you denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you.

15 Auctórem vero vitæ interfecístis, quem Deus suscitávit a mórtuis, cuius nos testes sumus.

15 But the author of life you killed, whom God hath raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses.

16 Et in fide nóminis eius, hunc, quem vos vidístis et nostis, confirmávit nomen eius: et fides, quæ per eum est, dedit íntegram sanitátem istam in conspéctu ómnium vestrum.

16 And in the faith of his name, this man, whom you have seen and known, hath his name strengthened; and the faith which is by him, hath given this perfect soundness in the sight of you all.

6 Et Annas princeps sacerdótum, et Cáiphas, et Ioánnes, et Alexánder, et quotquot erant de génere sacerdotáli.

6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest.

7 Et statuéntes eos in médio, interrogábant: In qua virtúte, aut in quo nómine fecístis hoc vos?

10 Be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God hath raised from the dead, even by him this man standeth here before you whole.

11 Hic est lapis, qui reprobátus est a vobis ædificántibus, qui factus est in caput ánguli:

11 This is the stone which was rejected by you the builders, which is become the head of the corner.

12 Et non est in álio áliquo salus. Nec enim áliud nomen est sub cælo datum homínibus, in quo opórteat nos salvos fíeri.

Sermo sancti Bernárdi Abbátis

From the Sermons of St. Bernard, Abbot (of Clairvaux)

Sermo 15 super Cantica, circa medium

1st on the Song of Songs

Non otióse Spíritus Sanctus nomen Sponsi óleo cómparat, cum ita dóceat sponsam ad Sponsum clamáre: Oleum effúsum nomen tuum. Oleum enim lucet, pascit et ungit. Fovet ignem, nutrit carnem, lenit dolórem: lux, cibus, medicína. Vide idem nunc et de Sponsi nómine: Lucet prædicátum, pascit recogitátum, invocátum lenit et ungit. Et percurrámus síngula. Unde putas in toto orbe tanta et tam súbita fídei lux, nisi de prædicáto nómine Iesu? Nonne in huius nóminis luce Deus nos vocávit in admirábile lumen suum; quibus illuminátis, et in lúmine isto vidéntibus lumen, dicat mérito Paulus: Fuístis aliquándo ténebræ, nunc autem lux in Dómino?

It is not idly that the Holy Ghost likeneth the Name of the Bridegroom to oil, when He maketh the Bride say to the Bridegroom: thy Name is as oil poured forth. Oil indeed giveth light, meat, and unction. It feedeth fire, it nourisheth the flesh, it sootheth pain; it is light, food, and healing. Behold, Thus also is the Name of the Bridegroom. To preach it, is to give light; to think of it, is to feed the soul; to call on it, is to win grace and unction. Let us take it point by point. What, thinkest thou, hath made the light of faith so suddenly and so brightly to shine in the whole world but the preaching of the Name of Jesus? Is it not in the light of this Name that God hath called us into His marvellous light, even that light wherewith we being enlightened, and in His light seeing light, Paul saith truly of us: Ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Sperent in te, qui novérunt nomen tuum:

℟. Let them that know thy Name put their trust in thee

* Quóniam non dereliquísti quæréntes te, Dómine.

* For Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

℣. Exsúrge, Dómine, ádiuva nos, et líbera nos propter nomen tuum.

℣. Arise, O Lord, help us, and redeem us for thy Name's sake.

℟. Quóniam non dereliquísti quæréntes te, Dómine.

℟. For Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Christus perpétuæ det nobis gáudia vitæ.

Benediction. May Christ to all His people give, for ever in His sight to live.

℟. Amen.

Hoc dénique nomen coram régibus, et géntibus, et fíliis Israël portáre iussus est idem Apóstolus; et portábat nomen tamquam lumen, et illuminábat pátriam, et clamábat ubíque: Nox præcéssit, dies autem appropinquávit. Abiciámus ergo ópera tenebrárum, et induámur arma lucis, sicut in die honéste ambulémus. Et monstrábat ómnibus lucérnam super candelábrum, annúntians in omni loco Iesum, et hunc crucifíxum. Quómodo lux ista resplénduit ac perstrínxit cunctórum intuéntium óculos, quando de ore Petri, tamquam fulgur egrédiens, claudi uníus corporáles plantas solidávit et bases, multósque spirituáliter cæcos illuminávit? Numquid non ignem sparsit, cum ait: In nómine Iesu Christi Nazaréni surge et ámbula?

This is the Name which the Apostle was commanded to bear before Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel, the Name which he bore as a light to enlighten his people, crying everywhere The night is far spent, the day is at hand; let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light, let us walk honestly as in the dayligth, He pointed out to all that candle set upon a candlestick, preaching in every place Jesus and Him crucified. How did that Name shine forth and dazzle every eye that beheld it, when it came like lightning out of the mouth of Peter to give bodily strength to the feet of the lame man, and to clear the sight of many a blind soul? Cast he not fire when he said: In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Confiteámur nómini tuo magno,

Nec tantum lux est nomen Iesu, sed est et cibus. An non tóties confortáris, quóties recordáris? Quid æque mentem cogitántis impínguat? Quid ita exercitátos réparat sensus, virtútes róborat, végetat mores bonos atque honéstos, castas fovet affectiónes? Aridus est omnis ánimæ cibus, si non óleo isto infúnditur; insípidus est, si non hoc sale condítur. Si scribas, non sapit mihi, nisi légero ibi Iesum. Si dísputes aut cónferas, non sapit mihi, nisi sonúerit ibi Iesus. Iesus mel in ore, in aure melos, in corde iúbilus. Sed est et medicína. Tristátur áliquis nostrum? Véniat in cor eius Iesus, et inde sáliat in os. Et ecce ad exórtum nóminis lumen, núbilum omne díffugit, redit serénum. Lábitur quis in crimen? currit ínsuper ad láqueum mortis desperándo? Nonne, si ínvocet nomen vitæ, conféstim respirábit ad vitam?

The Name of Jesus is not a Name of light only, but it is meat also. Dost thou ever call it to mind, and remain unstrengthened? Is there anything like it to enrich the soul of him that thinketh of it? What is there like it to restore the weakened senses, to fortify strength, to give birth to good lives and pure affections? The soul is fed on husks if that whereon it feedeth lack seasoning with this salt. If thou writest, thou hast no meaning for me if I read not of Jesus there. If thou preach, or dispute, thou hast no meaning for me if I hear not of Jesus there. The mention of Jesus is honey in the mouth, music in the ear, and gladness in the heart. It is our healing too. Is any sorrowful among us? Let the thought of Jesus come into his heart, and spring to his mouth. Behold, when the day of that Name beginneth to break, every cloud will flee away, and there will be a great calm. Doth any fall into sin? Doth any draw nigh to an hopeless death? And if he but call on the life-giving Name of Jesus, will he not draw the breath of a new life again?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 2:21

Luke 2:21

In illo témpore: Postquam consummáti sunt dies octo, ut circumciderétur Puer: vocátum est nomen eius Iesus. Et réliqua.

In that time: when eight days were accomplished, that the child should be circumcised, his name was called Jesus, which was called by the angel, before he was conceived in the womb. And so on.

Homilía sancti Bernárdi Abbátis

Homily by St. Bernard, Abbot (of Clairvaux)

Sermo 1 de Circumcisione

1st on the Circumcision

Magnum et mirábile sacraméntum! Circumcíditur Puer, et vocátur Iesus. Quid sibi vult ista connéxio? Circumcísio nempe magis salvándi, quam Salvatóris esse vidétur; et Salvatórem circumcídere pótius decet, quam circumcídi. Sed agnósce mediatórem Dei et hóminum, qui ab ipso nativitátis suæ exórdio divínis humána sóciat, ima summis. Náscitur ex mulíere, sed cui fecunditátis fructus sic accédat, ut non décidat flos virginitátis. Pannis invólvitur; sed panni ipsi angélicis láudibus honorántur. Abscónditur in præsépio; sed próditur radiánte stella de cælo. Sic et circumcísio veritátem suscéptæ probat humanitátis; et nomen, quod est super omne nomen, glóriam índicat maiestátis. Circumcíditur tamquam verus Abrahæ fílius; Iesus vocátur tamquam verus Fílius Dei.

Behold a mystery, great and full of wonder! The Child is circumcised, and His Name is called Jesus. Why are these two things thus mentioned together? It would seem that circumcision should rather be for the saved than for the Saviour; that the Saviour ought rather to be Circumciser than circumcised. But behold here the Mediator between God and men, how even from His childhood He joineth the things of the Highest to the things of the lowest, the things of God to the things of men. He is born of a woman, but her womb is made fruitful without the loss of the flower of her virginity. He is wrapped in swaddling-bands, but these swaddling-bands are a theme for the jubilation of angels. He is laid in a manger, but a bright star standeth in heaven over the place. So also in His circumcision, the ceremony gave proof of the reality of the Manhood which He had taken, and that Name which is above every name proclaimed the glory of His Blessed Majesty. As very son of Abraham He underwent circumcision; He assumed the Name of Jesus as very Son of God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Tribulatiónem et dolórem invéni:

℟. Sorrow and trouble did I find.

* Et nomen Dómini invocávi.

* Then called I upon the Name of the Lord.

℣. Turris fortíssima nomen Dómini, in ipso sperávi, et adiútus sum.

℣. The Name of the Lord is a strong tower; I trusted in Him and I am helped.

℟. Et nomen Dómini invocávi.

℟. Then called I upon the Name of the Lord.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Neque enim ad instar priórum meus iste Iesus nomen vácuum aut ináne portat: non est in eo magni nóminis umbra, sed véritas. Cǽlitus síquidem índitum nomen Evangelísta testátur, quod vocátum est ab Angelo, priúsquam in útero conciperétur. Et atténde verbi profunditátem: Postquam natus est Iesus, Iesus vocátur ab homínibus, qui vocátus est ab Angelo, priúsquam in útero conciperétur. Idem quippe et Angeli Salvátor et hóminis; sed hóminis ab incarnatióne, Angeli ab inítio creatúræ. Vocátum est, ait, nomen eius Iesus, quod vocátum est ab Angelo. In ore ergo duórum vel trium téstium stat omne verbum; et ipsum, quod in Prophéta abbreviátum, maniféstius in Evangélio légitur caro factum.

Why Jesus beareth not that Name as others have borne it before Him, as a vain and empty title. It is not in Him the shadow of a great Name, but the very meaning of that Name. That His Name was revealed from heaven, is attested by the Evangelist, where it is written, Which was so named of the Angel before He was conceived in the womb. After Jesus was born, men called Him Jesus, but angels called Him Jesus, before He was conceived in the womb. The One Lord is the Saviour of angels and of men; of men, since His Incarnation; of angels, from the beginning of their creation. His Name, saith the Evangelist, was called Jesus, which was so named of the Angel before He was conceived in the womb. In the mouth therefore of two or three witnesses is every word established; and that word whereof the Prophet spoke as cut short, is set forth at length in the Gospel: the Word made Flesh.

Sermo 2 de Circumcisione

2nd on the Circumcision

Mérito sane, dum circumcíditur puer, qui natus est nobis, Salvátor vocátur; quod vidélicet ex hoc iam cœ́perit operári salútem nostram, immaculátum illum pro nobis sánguinem fundens. Neque enim iam quǽrere est Christiánis, cur volúerit Dóminus Christus circumcídi. Propter hoc síquidem circumcísus est, propter quod natus, propter quod passus. Nihil horum propter se, sed ómnia propter eléctos. Nec in peccáto génitus, nec a peccáto circumcísus, nec mórtuus est pro peccáto suo; magis autem propter delícta nostra. Quod vocátum est, inquit, ab Angelo, priúsquam in útero conciperétur. Vocátum plane, non impósitum: nempe hoc ei nomen est ab ætérno. A natúra própria habet, ut sit Salvátor: innátum est ei nomen hoc, non índitum ab humána vel angélica creatúra.

It is no wonder that it should be at His circumcision that the Name of Jesus (which is, being interpreted, Saviour) is given to the Child Who is born unto us, for it was then that He for the first time shed that sinless Blood Which is the mean whereby He hath chosen to work out our salvation. It is no matter for the speculation of Christians why the Lord Christ was pleased to be circumcised. He was circumcised for the same reason for which He was born, and for which He suffered. Neither one nor the other was for Himself, but all for the sake of the elect. He was not born in sin; He was not circumcised to separate Him from sin; neither did He die for sins of His own, but for ours. Which was so named of the Angel before He was conceived in the womb. The Angel indeed gave Him that title of Saviour, but not for the first time. Saviour is His Name from everlasting; He hath it of His own proper nature to save. This title He hath in Himself, not by the gift of anything that He hath made, be it man or Angel.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Romans

Rom 6:1-5

Rom 6:1-5

1 Quid ergo dicémus? permanébimus in peccáto ut grátia abúndet?

1 What shall we say, then? shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

2 Absit. Qui enim mórtui sumus peccáto, quómodo adhuc vivémus in illo?

2 God forbid. For we that are dead to sin, how shall we live any longer therein?

3 An ignorátis quia quicúmque baptizáti sumus in Christo Iesu, in morte ipsíus baptizáti sumus?

3 Know you not that all we, who are baptized in Christ Jesus, are baptized in his death?

4 Consepúlti enim sumus cum illo per baptísmum in mortem: ut quómodo Christus surréxit a mórtuis per glóriam Patris, ita et nos in novitáte vitæ ambulémus.

4 For we are buried together with him by baptism into death; that as Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life.

5 Si enim complantáti facti sumus similitúdini mortis eius: simul et resurrectiónis érimus.

5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Congratulámini mihi, omnes qui dilígitis Dóminum:

* Quia, cum essem párvula, plácui Altíssimo, et de meis viscéribus génui Deum et hóminem.

* For while I was yet little I pleased the Most High, and from my womb have I brought forth God and man.

℣. Beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes, quia ancíllam húmilem respéxit Deus.

℣. All generations shall call me blessed, for God hath regarded the lowliness of His hand-maiden.

Rom 6:6-11

Rom 6:6-11

6 Hoc sciéntes, quia vetus homo noster simul crucifíxus est, ut destruátur corpus peccáti, et ultra non serviámus peccáto.

6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin may be destroyed, to the end that we may serve sin no longer.

7 Qui enim mórtuus est, iustificátus est a peccáto.

7 For he that is dead is justified from sin.

8 Si autem mórtui sumus cum Christo, crédimus quia simul étiam vivémus cum Christo,

8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live also together with Christ:

9 Sciéntes quod Christus resúrgens ex mórtuis iam non móritur: mors illi ultra non dominábitur.

9 Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him.

10 Quod enim mórtuus est peccáto, mórtuus est semel: quod autem vivit, vivit Deo.

10 For in that he died to sin, he died once; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God:

11 Ita et vos existimáte vos mórtuos quidem esse peccáto, vivéntes autem Deo, in Christo Iesu Dómino nostro.

11 So do you also reckon, that you are dead to sin, but alive unto God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.

* Et benedícta in ætérnum, Deum nobis prótulit et hóminem.

* And, she that is blessed for ever, brought forth for us God and man.

℣. Domus pudíci péctoris templum repénte fit Dei: intácta nésciens virum, verbo concépit Fílium.

Rom 6:12-18

Rom 6:12-18

12 Non ergo regnet peccátum in vestro mortáli córpore ut obediátis concupiscéntiis eius.

12 Let no sin therefore reign in your mortal body, so as to obey the lusts thereof.

13 Sed neque exhibeátis membra vestra arma iniquitátis peccáto: sed exhibéte vos Deo, tamquam ex mórtuis vivéntes: et membra vestra arma iustítiæ Deo.

13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of iniquity unto sin; but present yourselves to God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of justice unto God.

14 Peccátum enim vobis non dominábitur: non enim sub lege estis, sed sub grátia.

14 For sin shall not have dominion over you; for you are not under the law, but under grace.

15 Quid ergo? peccábimus, quóniam non sumus sub lege, sed sub grátia? Absit.

15 What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.

16 Nescítis quóniam cui exhibétis vos servos ad obediéndum, servi estis eius, cui obedítis, sive peccáti ad mortem, sive obeditiónis ad iustítiam?

16 Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey, whether it be of sin unto death, or of obedience unto justice.

17 Grátias autem Deo quod fuístis servi peccáti, obedístis autem ex corde in eam formam doctrínæ, in quam tráditi estis.

17 But thanks be to God, that you were the servants of sin, but have obeyed from the heart, unto that form of doctrine, into which you have been delivered.

41:4 My tears have been my bread day and night, * whilst it is said to me daily: Where is thy God?

41:5 Hæc recordátus sum, et effúdi in me ánimam meam: * quóniam transíbo in locum tabernáculi admirábilis, usque ad domum Dei.

41:5 These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me: * for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God:

41:5 In voce exsultatiónis, et confessiónis: * sonus epulántis.

41:5 With the voice of joy and praise; * the noise of one feasting.

41:6 Quare tristis es, ánima mea? * et quare contúrbas me?

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.

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

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Romans

Rom 7:1-3

Rom 7:1-3

1 An ignorátis, fratres, (sciéntibus enim legem loquor) quia lex in hómine dominátur, quanto témpore vivit?

1 Know you not, brethren, for I speak to them that know the law, that the law hath dominion over a man, as long as it liveth?

2 Nam quæ sub viro est múlier, vivénte viro, alligáta est legi: si autem mórtuus fúerit vir eius, solúta est a lege viri.

2 For the woman that hath an husband, whilst her husband liveth is bound to the law. But if her husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

3 Igitur, vivénte viro, vocábitur adúltera si fúerit cum álio viro: si autem mórtuus fúerit vir eius, liberáta est a lege viri, ut non sit adúltera si fúerit cum álio viro.

3 Therefore, whilst her husband liveth, she shall be called an adulteress, if she be with another man: but if her husband be dead, she is delivered from the law of her husband; so that she is not an adulteress, if she be with another man.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Rom 7:4-6

Rom 7:4-6

4 Itaque, fratres mei, et vos mortificáti estis legi per corpus Christi: ut sitis altérius, qui ex mórtuis resurréxit, ut fructificémus Deo.

4 Therefore, my brethren, you also are become dead to the law, by the body of Christ; that you may belong to another, who is risen again from the dead, that we may bring forth fruit to God.

5 Cum enim essémus in carne, passiónes peccatórum, quæ per legem erant, operabántur in membris nostris, ut fructificárent morti.

5 For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members, to bring forth fruit unto death.

6 Nunc autem solúti sumus a lege mortis, in qua detinebámur, ita ut serviámus in novitáte spíritus, et non in vetustáte lítteræ.

6 But now we are loosed from the law of death, wherein we were detained; so that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

* She fed the Saviour of the world, The King of Angel hosts above, Jesus, our Redeemer blest, From the fountain of her breast.

℣. Domus pudíci péctoris templum repénte fit Dei: intácta nésciens virum, verbo concépit Fílium.

Rom 7:7-9

Rom 7:7-9

7 Quid ergo dicémus? lex peccátum est? Absit. Sed peccátum non cognóvi, nisi per legem: nam concupiscéntiam nesciébam, nisi lex díceret: Non concupísces.

7 What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? God forbid. But I do not know sin, but by the law; for I had not known concupiscence, if the law did not say: Thou shalt not covet.

8 Occasióne autem accépta, peccátum per mandátum operátum est in me omnem concupiscéntiam. Sine lege enim peccátum mórtuum erat.

8 But sin taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.

9 Ego autem vivébam sine lege aliquándo. Sed cum venísset mandátum, peccátum revíxit.

9 And I lived some time without the law. But when the commandment came, sin revived.

De Epístola ad Romános

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Romans

Rom 8:1-4

Rom 8:1-4

1 Nihil ergo nunc damnatiónis est iis, qui sunt in Christo Iesu, qui non secúndum carnem ámbulant.

1 There is now therefore no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh.

2 Lex enim spíritus vitæ in Christo Iesu liberávit me a lege peccáti et mortis.

2 For the law of the spirit of life, in Christ Jesus, hath delivered me from the law of sin and of death.

3 Nam quod impossíbile erat legi, in quo infirmabátur per carnem: Deus Fílium suum mittens in similitúdinem carnis peccáti, et de peccáto damnávit peccátum in carne,

3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh; God sending his own Son, in the likeness of sinful flesh and of sin, hath condemned sin in the flesh;

4 Ut iustificátio legis implerétur in nobis, qui non secúndum carnem ambulámus, sed secúndum spíritum.

4 That the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ecce Agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccáta mundi: ecce de quo dicébam vobis: Qui post me venit, ante me factus est:

℟. Behold the Lamb of God, behold Him Which taketh away the sins of the world; behold Him of Whom I said unto you: He That cometh after me is preferred before me

* Cuius non sum dignus corrígiam calceaménti sólvere.

* Whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

℣. Qui de terra est, de terra lóquitur: qui de cælo venit, super omnes est.

℣. He that is of the earth speaketh of the earth; He That cometh from heaven is above all.

℟. Cuius non sum dignus corrígiam calceaménti sólvere.

Rom 8:5-9

Rom 8:5-9

5 Qui enim secúndum carnem sunt: quæ carnis sunt, sápiunt. Qui vero secúndum spíritum sunt, quæ sunt spíritus, séntiunt.

5 For they that are according to the flesh, mind the things that are of the flesh; but they that are according to the spirit, mind the things that are of the spirit.

6 Nam prudéntia carnis, mors est: prudéntia autem spíritus, vita et pax.

6 For the wisdom of the flesh is death; but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace.

7 Quóniam sapiéntia carnis inimíca est Deo: legi enim Dei non est subiécta: nec enim potest.

7 Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither can it be.

8 Qui autem in carne sunt, Deo placére non possunt.

8 And they who are in the flesh, cannot please God.

9 Vos autem in carne non estis, sed in spíritu: si tamen Spíritus Dei hábitat in vobis.

9 But you are not in the flesh, but in the spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.

9 Si quis autem Spíritum Christi non habet: hic non est eius.

10 Si autem Christus in vobis est: corpus quidem mórtuum est propter peccátum, spíritus vero vivit propter iustificatiónem.

10 And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin; but the spirit liveth, because of justification.

11 Quod si Spíritus eius, qui suscitávit Iesum a mórtuis, hábitat in vobis: qui suscitávit Iesum Christum a mórtuis, vivificábit, et mortália córpora vestra, propter inhabitántem Spíritum eius in vobis.

In the country of Reims, by command of the President Rictiovarus, in the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian, the holy virgin and martyr Macra she was first cast into the fire but remained unhurt, whereupon her breasts were cut off, and she was thrust into a prison and rolled upon sharp potsherds and live coals until she passed away in prayer to be ever with the Lord.

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.

72:7 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.

72:11 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:

Sermo sancti Leónis Papæ

From the Sermons of Pope St. Leo (the Great)

Sermo 2 de Epiphania

2nd for Twelfth-Day.

Gaudéte in Dómino, dilectíssimi, íterum dico, gaudéte: quóniam brevi intervállo témporis, post solemnitátem Nativitátis Christi, festívitas declaratiónis eius illúxit: et quem in illo die Virgo péperit, in hoc mundus agnóvit. Verbum enim caro factum, sic susceptiónis nostræ temperávit exórdia, ut natus Iesus et credéntibus maniféstus, et persequéntibus esset occúltus. Iam tunc ergo cæli enarravérunt glóriam Dei, et in omnem terram sonus veritátis exívit, quando et pastóribus exércitus Angelórum Salvatóris éditi annuntiátor appáruit, et Magos ad eum adorándum prǽvia stella perdúxit: ut a solis ortu usque ad occásum veri Regis generátio coruscáret, cum rerum fidem et regna Oriéntis per Magos díscerent, et Románum impérium non latéret.

Dearly beloved brethren, rejoice in the Lord; again I say, rejoice. But a few days are past since the solemnity of Christ's Birth, and now the glorious light of His Manifestation is breaking upon us. On that day the Virgin brought Him forth, and on this the world knew Him. The Word made Flesh was pleased to reveal Himself by degrees to those for whom He had come. When Jesus was born He was manifested indeed to the believing, but hidden from His enemies. Already indeed the heavens declared the glory of God, and their sound went out into all lands, when the Herald Angels appeared to tell to the shepherds the glad tidings of a Saviour's Birth; and now the guiding star leadeth the wise men to worship Him, that from the rising of the sun to the going down thereof, the Birth of the true King may be known abroad; that through those wise men the kingdoms of the east might learn the great truth, and the Roman empire remain no more in darkness.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Illumináre, illumináre Ierúsalem, quia venit lux tua:

℟. Shine, shine, O Jerusalem, for thy light is come;

* Et glória Dómini super te orta est.

* And the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.

℣. Et ambulábunt gentes in lúmine tuo, et reges in splendóre ortus tui.

℣. And the Gentiles shall walk in thy light, and kings in the brightness of thy rising.

℟. Et glória Dómini super te orta est.

℟. And the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Benedictio. Christus perpétuæ det nobis gáudia vitæ.

Benediction. May Christ to all His people give, for ever in His sight to live.

℟. Amen.

Nam et sævítia Heródis volens primórdia suspécti sibi Regis exstínguere, huic dispensatíoni nésciens serviébat: ut dum atróci inténtus facínori, ignótum sibi púerum indiscréta infántium cæde perséquitur, annuntiátum cǽlitus dominatóris ortum insígnior ubíque fama loquerétur: quam promptiórem ad narrándum, diligentiorémque faciébat et supérnæ significatiónis nóvitas, et cruentíssimi persecutóris impíetas. Tunc autem étiam Ægýpto Salvátor illátus est, ut gens antíquis erróribus dédita, iam ad vicínam salútem per occúltam grátiam signarétur: et quæ nondum eiécerat ab ánimo superstitiónem, iam hospítio recíperet veritátem.

The very cruelty of Herod, when he strove to crush at His birth this King Whom he alone feared, was made a blind means to carry out this dispensation of mercy. While the tyrant with horrid guilt sought to slay the little Child he did not know, amid an indiscriminate slaughter of innocents, his infamous act served to spread wider abroad the heaven-told news of the Birth of the Lord. Thus were these glad tidings loudly proclaimed, both by the novelty of their story, and the iniquity of their enemies. Then was the Saviour borne into Egypt, that nation, of a long time hardened in idolatry, might by the mysterious virtue which went out of Him, even when His presence was unknown, be prepared for the saving light so soon to dawn on them, and might receive the Truth as a wanderer even before they had banished falsehood.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Agnoscámus ergo, dilectíssimi, in Magis adoratóribus Christi, vocatiónis nostræ fideíque primítias: et exsultántibus ánimis beátæ spei inítia celebrémus. Exínde enim in ætérnam hereditátem cœ́pimus introíre: exínde nobis Christum loquéntia Scripturárum arcána patuérunt, et véritas, quam Iudæórum obcæcátio non récipit, ómnibus natiónibus lumen suum invéxit. Honorétur ítaque a nobis sacratíssimus dies, in quo salútis nostræ Auctor appáruit: et quem Magi infántem veneráti sunt in cunábulis, nos omnipoténtem adorémus in cælis. Ac sicut illi de thesáuris suis mýsticas Dómino múnerum spécies obtulérunt, ita et nos de córdibus nostris, quæ Deo sunt digna, promámus.

Dearly beloved brethren, we recognize in the wise men who came to worship Christ, the first-fruits of that dispensation to the Gentiles wherein we also are called and enlightened. Let us then keep this Feast with grateful hearts, in thanksgiving for our blessed hope, whereof it doth commemorate the dawn. From that worship paid to the new-born Christ is to be dated the entry of us Gentiles upon our heirship of God and co-heirship with Christ. Since that joyful day the Scriptures which testify of Christ have lain open for us as well as for the Jews. Yea, their blindness rejected that Truth, Which, since that day, hath shed Its bright beams upon all nations. Let all observance, then, be paid to this most sacred day, whereon the Author of our salvation was made manifest, and as the wise men fell down and worshipped Him in the manger, so let us fall down and worship Him enthroned Almighty in heaven. As they also opened their treasures and presented unto Him mystic and symbolic gifts, so let us strive to open our hearts to Him, and offer Him from thence some worthy offering.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 2:1-12

Matt 2:1-12

Cum natus esset Iesus in Béthlehem Iuda in diébus Heródis regis, ecce Magi ab Oriénte venérunt Ierosólymam, dicéntes: Ubi est qui natus est Rex Iudæórum? Et réliqua.

When Jesus therefore was born in Bethlehem of Juda, in the days of king Herod, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, saying: Where is he that is born king of the Jews? And so on.

Homilía sancti Gregórii Papæ

Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great.

Homilia 10 in Evang.

10th on the Gospels

Sicut in lectióne evangélica, fratres caríssimi, audístis, cæli Rege nato, rex terræ turbátus est: quia nimírum terréna altitúdo confúnditur, cum celsitúdo cæléstis aperítur. Sed quæréndum nobis est, quidnam sit, quod, Redemptóre nato, pastóribus in Iudǽa Angelus appáruit, atque ad adorándum hunc ab Oriénte Magos non Angelus, sed stella perdúxit? Quia vidélicet Iudǽis, tamquam ratióne uténtibus, rationále ánimal, id est, Angelus prædicáre débuit: gentíles vero, quia uti ratióne nesciébant, ad cognoscéndum Dóminum non per vocem, sed per signa perducúntur. Unde étiam per Paulum dícitur: Prophetíæ fidélibus datæ sunt, non infidélibus: signa autem infidélibus, non fidélibus. Quia et illis prophetíæ tamquam fidélibus, non infidélibus: et istis signa tamquam infidélibus, non fidélibus data sunt.

Dearly beloved brethren, hear ye from the Gospel lesson how, when the King of heaven was born, the king of earth was troubled? The heights of heaven are opened and the depths of earth are stirred. Let us now consider the question, why, when the Redeemer was born, an angel brought the news to the shepherds of Judea, but a star led the wise men of the East to worship Him. It seemeth as if the Jews as reasonable creatures received a revelation from a reasonable being, that is, an angel, but the Gentiles without, being as brutes, are roused not by a voice, but by a sign, that is, a star. Hence Paul hath it: a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. 1 Cor. xiv. 22. So the prophesying, that is, of the angel was given to them that believed, and the sign to them that believed not.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Stella, quam víderant Magi in Oriénte, antecedébat eos, donec venírent ad locum, ubi puer erat.

℟. The star which the wise men had seen in the East, went before them, till they came where the young Child was.

* Vidéntes autem eam, gavísi sunt gáudio magno.

* And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

℣. Et intrántes domum, invenérunt púerum cum María matre eius, et procidéntes adoravérunt eum.

℣. And when they were come into the house, they found the young Child with Mary His Mother, and fell down and worshipped Him.

℟. Vidéntes autem eam, gavísi sunt gáudio magno.

℟. And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

Et notándum, quod Redemptórem nostrum, cum iam perféctæ esset ætátis, eísdem gentílibus Apóstoli prǽdicant, eúmque párvulum, et necdum per humáni córporis offícium loquéntem, stella géntibus denúntiat: quia nimírum ratiónis ordo poscébat, ut et loquéntem iam Dóminum loquéntes nobis prædicatóres innotéscerent, et necdum loquéntem eleménta muta prædicárent. Sed in ómnibus signis, quæ vel nascénte Dómino, vel moriénte eo monstráta sunt, considerándum nobis est, quanta fúerit in quorúmdam Iudæórum corde durítia, qui hunc nec per prophetíæ donum, nec per mirácula agnovérunt.

Thus also we remark that afterwards the Redeemer was preached among the Gentiles not by Himself, but by His Apostles, even as, when a little Child, He is shown to them, not by the voice of angels, but merely by the vision of a star. When He Himself had begun to speak He was made known to us by speakers, but when He lay silent in the manger, by that silent testimony in heaven. But whether we consider the signs which accompanied His birth or His death, this thing is wonderful, namely, the hardness of heart of the Jews, who would not believe in Him either for prophesying or for miracles.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

* Et intrántes domum invenérunt púerum cum María matre eius, et procidéntes adoravérunt eum: * Et apértis thesáuris suis obtulérunt ei múnera, aurum, thus, et myrrham.

* And when they were come into the house, they found the young Child with Mary His Mother, and fell down and worshipped Him; *

℣. Stella, quam víderant Magi in Oriénte, antecedébat eos, usque dum véniens staret supra ubi erat puer.

and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto Him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.

Omnia quippe eleménta auctórem suum venísse testáta sunt. Ut enim de eis quiddam usu humáno loquar: Deum hunc cæli esse cognovérunt, quia prótinus stellam misérunt. Mare cognóvit, quia sub plantis eius se calcábile prǽbuit. Terra cognóvit, quia eo moriénte contrémuit. Sol cognóvit, quia lucis suæ rádios abscóndit. Saxa et paríetes cognovérunt, quia témpore mortis eius scissa sunt. Inférnus agnóvit, quia hos, quos tenébat mórtuos, réddidit. Et tamen hunc, quem Dóminum ómnia insensibília eleménta sensérunt, adhuc infidélium Iudæórum corda Deum esse mínime cognóscunt, et durióra saxis, scindi ad pœniténdum nolunt.

All things which He had made, bore witness that their Maker was come. Let me reckon them after the manner of men. The heavens knew that He was God, and sent a star to shine over where He lay. The sea knew it, and bore Him up when He walked upon it. The earth knew it, and quaked when He died. The sun knew it, and was darkened. The rocks and walls knew it, and rent at the hour of His death. Hell knew it, and gave up the dead that were in it. And yet up to this very hour the hearts of the unbelieving Jews will not acknowledge that He to Whom all nature testified is their God, and, being more hardened than the rocks, refuse to be rent by repentance.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Rom 9:6-10

Rom 9:6-10

6 Non autem quod excíderit verbum Dei. Non enim omnes qui ex Israël sunt, ii sunt Israëlítæ:

6 Not as though the word of God hath miscarried. For all are not Israelites that are of Israel:

7 Neque qui semen sunt Abrahæ, omnes fílii: sed in Isaac vocábitur tibi semen:

7 Neither are all they that are the seed of Abraham, children; but in Isaac shall thy seed be called:

8 Id est, non qui fílii carnis, hi fílii Dei: sed qui fílii sunt promissiónis, æstimántur in sémine.

8 That is to say, not they that are the children of the flesh, are the children of God; but they, that are the children of the promise, are accounted for the seed.

9 Promissiónis enim verbum hoc est: Secúndum hoc tempus véniam: et erit Saræ fílius.

9 For this is the word of promise: According to this time will I come; and Sara shall have a son.

10 Non solum autem illa: sed et Rebécca ex uno concúbitu habens, Isaac patris nostri.

10 And not only she. But when Rebecca also had conceived at once, of Isaac our father.

Rom 9:11-16

Rom 9:11-16

11 Cum enim nondum nati fuíssent, aut áliquid boni egíssent, aut mali, (ut secúndum electiónem propósitum Dei manéret),

11 For when the children were not yet born, nor had done any good or evil that the purpose of God, according to election, might stand,

12 Non ex opéribus, sed ex vocánte dictum est ei: Quia maior sérviet minóri,

12 Not of works, but of him that calleth, it was said to her: The elder shall serve the younger.

13 Sicut scriptum est: Iacob diléxi, Esau autem ódio hábui.

13 As it is written: Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.

14 Quid ergo dicémus? numquid iníquitas apud Deum? Absit.

14 What shall we say then? Is there injustice with God? God forbid.

15 Móysi enim dicit: Miserébor cuius miséreor: et misericórdiam præstábo cuius miserébor.

15 For he saith to Moses: I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy; and I will shew mercy to whom I will shew mercy.

16 Igitur non voléntis, neque curréntis, sed miseréntis est Dei.

16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Ex Epístola sancti Ambrósii Epíscopi ad Sirícium Papam

From the letter of Blessed Ambrose, bishop of Milan, to Pope Siricius

Epist. 81, alias 7, post initium

Epist. 81, alias 7

De via perversitátis prodúntur dícere: Virgo concépit, sed non virgo generávit. Pótuit ergo virgo concípere, non pótuit virgo generáre, cum semper concéptus præcédat, partus sequátur? Sed, si doctrínis non créditur sacerdótum, credátur oráculis Christi; credátur mónitis Angelórum dicéntium: Quia non est impossíbile Deo omne verbum; credátur Sýmbolo Apostolórum, quod Ecclésia Romána intemerátum semper custódit et servat. Audívit María vocem Angeli, et, quæ ante díxerat: Quómodo fiet istud; non de fide generatiónis intérrogans, respóndit póstea: Ecce ancílla Dómini, contíngat mihi secúndum verbum tuum.

How great is the madness of their dismal barkings, that the same persons should say that Christ could not be born of a virgin, and yet assert that women, after having given birth to human pledges, remain virgins? But if they will not believe the doctrines of the Clergy, let them believe the oracles of Christ, let them believe the admonitions of Angels who say, For with God nothing shall be impossible. Let them give credit to the Creed of the Apostles, which the Roman Church has always kept and preserved undefiled. Mary heard the voice of the Angel, and she who before had said “How shall this be?”, not asking from want of faith in the mode of generation, afterwards replied: “Behold the handmaid of the Lord, be it unto me according to thy word.”

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Breve «Neminem fugit» 14 iunii 1892

Breve «Neminem fugit» 14 junii 1892

Miséricors Deus cum humánæ reparatiónis opus, quod diu sǽcula exspectábant, perfícere decrevísset, ita eiúsdem óperis ratiónem ordinémque dispósuit, ut prima ipsa eiúsdem inítia augústam mundo exhibérent spéciem Famíliæ divínitus constitútæ, in qua omnes hómines absolutíssimum domésticæ societátis, omnísque virtútis ac sanctitátis intueréntur exémplar. Talis quidem Família éxstitit Nazarethána illa, in qua, ántequam géntibus univérsis pleno lúmine emicuísset, Sol iustítiæ erat abscónditus: nimírum Christus Deus, Servátor noster, cum Vírgine Matre et Ioseph, viro sanctíssimo, qui erga Iesum patérno fungebátur múnere. Mínime dúbium est quin ex iis láudibus, quæ in societáte et consuetúdine doméstica ex mútuis caritátis offíciis, ex sanctitáte morum, ex pietátis exercitatióne proficiscúntur, máxima quæque enitúerit in sacra illa Família, quæ síquidem eárum futúra erat céteris documénto. Ac proptérea benígno Providéntiæ consílio sic illa cónstitit, ut sínguli christiáni, qualicúmque conditióne vel loco, si ad eam ánimum advértant, fácile possint cuiuscúmque virtútis exercéndæ habére causam et invitaméntum.

When God in his mercy determined to accomplish the work of man's renewal, which same had so many long ages awaited, he appointed and ordained this work on such wise that its very beginning might shew to the world the august spectacle of a Family which was known to be divinely constituted; that therein all men might behold a perfect model, as well of domestic life as of every virtue and pattern of holiness: for such indeed was the Holy Family of Nazareth. There in secret dwelt the Sun of Righteousness, until the time when he should shine out in full splendour in the sight of all nations. There Christ, our God and Saviour, lived with his Virgin Mother, and with that most holy man Joseph, who held to him the place of father. No one can doubt that in this Holy Family was displayed every virtue which can be called forth by an ordinary home life, with its mutual services of charity, its holy intercourse, and its practices of godly piety, since the Holy Family was destined to be a pattern to all others. For that very reason was it established by the merciful designs of Providence, namely, that every Christian, in every walk of life and in every place, might easily, if he would but give heed to it, have before him a motive and a pattern for the good life.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Ego autem mendícus sum et pauper:

℟. As for me, I am poor and needy:

* Dóminus sollícitus est mei.

* But the Lord careth for me.

℣. Labóres mánuum tuárum quia manducábis, beátus es, et bene tibi erit.

℣. Thou shalt eat the labours of thine hands; blessed art thou, and happy shalt thou be.

℟. Dóminus sollícitus est mei.

Habent revéra patresfamílias in Ioseph vigilántiæ providentiǽque patérnæ præclaríssimam normam: habent matres in sanctíssima Vírgine Deípara amóris, verecúndiæ, submissiónis ánimi perfectǽque fídei insígne spécimen: fílii vero famílias in Iesu, qui erat súbditus illis, habent divínum obediéntiæ exémplar quod admiréntur, colant, imiténtur. Qui nóbiles nati sunt, discent a Família régii sánguinis quómodo et in édita fortúna se témperent, et in afflícta retíneant dignitátem: qui dites, noscent ab ea quantum sint virtútibus posthabéndæ divítiæ. Operárii autem et ii omnes, qui familiárum rerum angústiis ac tenuióre conditióne tam ácriter irritántur, si ad sanctíssimos illíus domésticæ societátis consórtes respéctent, non déerit eis causa cur loco, qui sibi óbtigit, delecténtur pótius quam dóleant. Commúnes enim cum Sacra Família sunt illis labóres: commúnes curæ de vita cotidiána: débuit et Ioseph de mercéde sua vitæ ratiónibus consúlere: imo ipsæ divínæ manus se fabrílibus exercuérunt. Nec mirum sane est si sapientíssimi hómines divítiis affluéntes, eas abícere volúerint, sociámque cum Iesu, María et Ioseph sibi elígere paupertátem.

To all fathers of families, Joseph is verily the best model of paternal vigilance and care. In the most holy Virgin Mother of God, mothers may find an excellent example of love, modesty, resignation of spirit, and the perfecting of faith. And in Jesus, who was subject to his parents, the children of the family have a divine pattern of obedience which they can admire, reverence, and imitate. Those who are of noble birth may learn, from this Family of royal blood, how to live simply in times of prosperity, and how to retain their dignity in times of distress. The rich may learn that moral worth is to be more highly esteemed than wealth. Artisans, and all such as are bitterly grieved by the narrow and slender means of their families, if they would but consider the sublime holiness of the members of this domestic fellowship, cannot fail to find some cause for rejoicing in their lot, rather than for being merely dissatisfied with it. In common with the Holy Family, they have to work, and to provide for the daily wants of life. Joseph had to engage in trade, in order to live; even the divine hands laboured at an artisan's calling. It is not to be wondered at, that the wealthiest men, if truly wise, have been willing to cast away their riches, and to embrace a life of poverty with Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Vulpes fóveas habent, et vólucres cæli nidos,

Quibus e rebus iure meritóque apud cathólicos Sacræ Famíliæ cultus matúre invéctus, maius in dies síngulos increméntum capit. Id quidem probant tum christianórum sodalitátes sub invocatióne Sacræ Famíliæ institútæ, tum singuláres honóres ei rédditi, tum potíssimum a decessóribus Nostris ad excitándum erga eam pietátis stúdium impertíta privilégia et grátiæ. Huiúsmodi cultus magno in honóre hábitus est iam inde a sǽculo décimo séptimo, latéque per Itáliam, Gálliam et Bélgium propagátus, totam fere Európam pervásit: deínde prætergréssus vastos Océani tractus, in América per Canadénsem regiónem, sese exténdit, faustísque efflóruit auspíciis. Síquidem nihil magis salutáre aut éfficax famíliis christiánis cogitári potest exémplo Sacræ Famíliæ, quæ perfectiónem absolutionémque compléctitur ómnium virtútum domesticárum. Sic imploráti inter domésticos paríetes adsint propítii Iesus, María et Ioseph, caritátem alant, mores regant, ad virtútem próvocent imitatióne sui, et quæ úndique instant mortáles ærúmnæ, eas leniéndo fáciant tolerabilióres. - Ad cultum vero Sacræ Famíliæ augéndum Leo Papa décimus tértius christiánas famílias eídem Sacræ Famíliæ consecrári præscrípsit: Benedíctus autem décimus quintus Offícium et Missam ad univérsam Ecclésiam exténdit.

From the foregoing it is evident how natural and fitting it was that devotion to the Holy Family should in due time have grown up amongst Catholics; and once begun, that it should spread far and wide. Proof of this lieth first in the sodalities instituted under the ínvocation of the Holy Family; then in the unique honours bestowed upon it; and above all, by the privileges and favours granted to this devotion by our predecessors to stimulate fervour and piety in its regard. This devotion was already held in great esteem in the seventeenth century. Widely propagated in Italy, France, and Belgium, it spread over almost the whole of Europe; thence, crossing the wide ocean, through Canada it made is way in the Americas, and finding favour there, became very flourishing. Indeed, among Christian families, nothing more salutary nor efficacious can be imagined than the example of the Holy Family, where are to be found all domestic virtues in perfection and completeness. When Jesus, Mary, and Joseph are invoked in the home, charity is likely to be maintained in the family through their example and heavenly entreaty; a good influence is thus exerted over conduct; the practice of virtue is thus incited; and thus the hardships which are everywhere wont to harass mankind, are both mitigated and made easier to bear. To increase devotion to the Holy Family, Pope Leo XIII prescribed that Christian families should be consecrated thereto. Benedict XV extended the Mass and Office to the whole Church.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 2:42-52

Luke 2:42-52

Cum factus esset Iesus annórum duódecim, ascendéntibus illis Ierosólymam secúndum consuetúdinem diéi festi, consummatísque diébus, cum redirent, remánsit puer Iesus in Ierúsalem, et non cognovérunt paréntes eius. Et réliqua.

And when he was twelve years old, they going up into Jerusalem, according to the custom of the feast, And having fulfilled the days, when they returned, the child Jesus remained in Jerusalem; and his parents knew it not. And so on.

Homilía sancti Bernárdi Abbátis

Homily of St. Bernard Abbot

Homilia 1 super Missus est, n. 7-8

Homilia super Missus est, n. 7-8

Et erat súbditus illis. Quis, quibus? Deus homínibus; Deus, inquam, cui Angeli súbditi sunt, cui Principátus et Potestátes obédiunt, súbditus erat Maríæ, nec tantum Maríæ, sed étiam Ioseph propter Maríam. Miráre ergo utrúmlibet, et élige quid ámplius miréris, sive Fílii benigníssimam dignatiónem, sive Matris excellentíssimam dignitátem. Utrínque stupor, utrínque miráculum. Et quod Deus féminæ obtémperet, humílitas absque exémplo; et quod Deo fémina principétur, sublímitas sine sócio. In láudibus vírginum singuláriter cánitur quod sequúntur Agnum quocúmque íerit. Quibus ergo láudibus iúdicas dignam, quæ étiam præit?

And he was subject unto them. Who was subject? And to whom? God to man! God, I repeat, to whom the Angels are subject, whom the Principalities and Powers do obey, was subject to Mary; and not only to Mary, but to Joseph also for Mary's sake. Marvel, therefore, both at God and man, and choose that which giveth greater wonder, whether it be the most loving condescension of the Son, or the exceeding great dignity of his Mother. Both amaze us, both are marvellous. That God should obey a woman is lowliness without parallel, that woman should rule over God, an elevation beyond comparison. In praise of virgins it is sung of them alone, that they follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. Of what praise do ye judge that woman to be worthy who is thus placed before the Lamb of God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Vere tu es Rex abscónditus,

℟. Verily, thou art a King that hidest thyself,

* Deus Israël Salvátor.

* O God of Israel, the Saviour.

℣. Tu doces hóminem sciéntiam.

℣. Thou teachest man knowledge.

℟. Deus Israël Salvátor.

℟. O God of Israel, the Saviour.

℣. 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.

Disce, homo, obedíre; disce, terra, subdi; disce, pulvis, obtemperáre. De auctóre tuo loquens Evangelísta. Et erat, inquit, súbditus illis; haud dúbium, quin Maríæ et Ioseph. Erubésce, supérbe cinis! Deus se humíliat, et tu te exáltas? Deus se homínibus subdit, et tu, dominári géstiens homínibus, tuo te præpónis auctóri? Utinam mihi, aliquándo tale áliquid cogitánti, Deus respondére dignétur quod et suo increpándo respóndit Apóstolo: Vade, inquit, post me, sátana, quia non sapis ea quæ Dei sunt. Quóties enim homínibus præésse desídero, tóties Deum præíre conténdo; et tunc vere non sápio ea quæ Dei sunt. De ipso namque dictum est: Et erat súbditus illis. Si hóminis, o homo, imitári dedignáris exémplum, certe non erit tibi indígnum sequi auctórem tuum. Si non potes fórsitan sequi eum quocúmque íerit, dignáre vel sequi quo tibi condescéndit.

Learn, O man, to obey! Learn, O earth, to be subject! Learn, O dust, to submit! The Evangelist speaking of thy Creator saith: And he was subject unto them. And there is no doubt that this sheweth us that God was subject to Mary and Joseph. Shame on you, ye proud entities of dust and ashes! God abaseth himself, and dost thou, O creature sprung from the earth, exalt thyself? God maketh himself subject to man, and dost thou, who art always so eager to lord it over men, set up thyself to lord it over thy Creator? For as often soever as I desire pre-eminency over men, so often do I strive to excel God. For of him it was said: And he was subject unto them. If thou disdainest, O man, to follow the example of man, at least thou canst follow thy Creator without dishonour. If thou canst not, perchance, follow him whithersoever he goeth, deign at least to follow him in this thing wherein he hath emptied himself, and made himself of no reputation, for the sake of such as thou.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. As by one man's disobedience many were made sinners,

* Ita et per uníus obeditiónem iusti constituéntur multi.

* So by the obedience of one Man shall many be made righteous.

℣. Venit Názareth et erat súbditus illis.

℣. He came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them.

℟. Ita et per uníus obeditiónem iusti constituéntur multi.

℟. So by the obedience of one Man shall many be made righteous.

Si non potes sublímen incédere sémitam virginitátis, séquere vel Deum per tutíssimam viam humilitátis; a cuius rectitúdine si qui étiam de virgínibus deviáverint, ut verum fátear, nec ipsi sequúntur Agnum quocúmque íerit. Séquitur quidem Agnum coinquinátus húmilis, séquitur et virgo supérbus, sed néuter quocúmque íerit: quia nec ille ascéndere potest ad mundítiam Agni, qui sine mácula est; nec is ad eiúsdem mansuetúdinem descéndere dignátur, qua scílicet non coram tondénte, sed coram occidénte se obmútuit. Attamen salubriórem elégit sequéndi partem in humilitáte peccátor, quam in virginitáte supérbus; cum et illíus immundítiam sua húmilis satisfáctio purget, et huius pudicítiam supérbia ínquinet.

If thou canst not enter upon the lofty paths of virginity, at least follow God by the most safe road of humility. If any turn aside from this straight way, though they be virgins, they do not follow the Lamb, if the truth be told, whithersoever he goeth. The humble man, though stained with sin, followeth the Lamb; the virgin, though proud, also followeth; but neither of these twain followeth whithersoever he goeth. The former cannot attain unto the purity of the Lamb, for he is without spot; the latter deigneth not to descend to his meekness, who was dumb, not before the shearer, but before the murderer. Yet the sinner who followeth in humility hath chosen a more saving way than the proud man who followeth in virginity; for the humble one maketh satisfaction, and is cleansed of his impurity, but the proud one's chastity is stained by his pride.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

1 Et ego, cum veníssem ad vos, fratres, veni non in sublimitáte sermónis, aut sapiéntiæ, annúntians vobis testimónium Christi.

1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not in loftiness of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of Christ.

2 Non enim iudicávi me scire áliquid inter vos, nisi Iesum Christum, et hunc crucifíxum.

2 For I judged not myself to know anything among you, but Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

3 Et ego in infirmitáte, et timóre, et tremóre multo fui apud vos:

3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.

4 Et sermo meus, et prædicátio mea non in persuasibílibus humánæ sapiéntiæ verbis, sed in ostensióne spíritus et virtútis:

4 And my speech and my preaching was not in the persuasive words of human wisdom, but in shewing of the Spirit and power;

* Gold, to show His kingly power; frankincense, for our Great High Priest; and myrrh, against the Lord's burying.

6 Sapiéntiam autem lóquimur inter perféctos: sapiéntiam vero non huius sǽculi, neque príncipum huius sǽculi, qui destruúntur:

6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, neither of the princes of this world that come to nought;

7 Sed lóquimur Dei sapiéntiam in mystério, quæ abscóndita est, quam prædestinávit Deus ante sǽcula in glóriam nostram,

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory

8 Quam nemo príncipum huius sǽculi cognóvit: si enim cognovíssent, nunquam Dóminum glóriæ crucifixíssent.

8 Which none of the princes of this world knew; for if they had known it, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory.

9 Sed sicut scriptum est: Quod óculus non vidit, nec auris audívit, nec in cor hóminis ascéndit, quæ præparávit Deus iis, qui díligunt illum.

9 But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him.

1 Cor 2:10-13

10 Nobis autem revelávit Deus per Spíritum suum: Spíritus enim ómnia scrutátur, étiam profúnda Dei.

10 But to us God hath revealed them, by this Spirit. For the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

11 Quis enim hóminum scit quæ sunt hóminis, nisi spíritus hóminis, qui in ipso est? ita et quæ Dei sunt, nemo cognóvit, nisi Spíritus Dei.

11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man that is in him? So the things also that are of God no man knoweth, but the Spirit of God.

12 Nos autem non spíritum huius mundi accépimus, sed Spíritum, qui ex Deo est, ut sciámus, quæ a Deo donáta sunt nobis:

12 Now we have received not the spirit of this world, but the Spirit that is of God; that we may know the things that are given us from God.

13 Quæ et lóquimur non in doctis humánæ sapiéntiæ verbis, sed in doctrína Spíritus, spirituálibus spirituália comparántes.

13 Which things also we speak, not in the learned words of human wisdom; but in the doctrine of the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

1 Cor 5:1-5

1 Cor 5:1-5

1 Omníno audítur inter vos fornicátio, et talis fornicátio qualis nec inter gentes, ita ut uxórem patris sui áliquis hábeat.

1 It is absolutely heard, that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as the like is not among the heathens; that one should have his father's wife.

2 Et vos infláti estis: et non magis luctum habuístis, ut tollátur de médio vestrum qui hoc opus fecit.

2 And you are puffed up; and have not rather mourned, that he might be taken away from among you, that hath done this deed.

3 Ego quidem absens córpore, præsens autem spíritu, iam iudicávi ut præsens, eum, qui sic operátus est,

3 I indeed, absent in body, but present in spirit, have already judged, as though I were present, him that hath so done,

4 In nómine Dómini nostri Iesu Christi, congregátis vobis et meo spíritu, cum virtúte Dómini nostri Iesu,

4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus;

5 Trádere huiúsmodi sátanæ in intéritum carnis, ut spíritus salvus sit in die Dómini nostri Iesu Christi.

* In auro, ut ostendátur Regis poténtia: in thure, Sacerdótem magnum consídera: et in myrrha, Domínicam sepultúram.

* Gold, to show His kingly power; frankincense, for our Great High Priest; and myrrh, against the Lord's burying.

℣. Salútis nostræ auctórem Magi veneráti sunt in cunábulis, et de thesáuris suis mýsticas ei múnerum spécies obtulérunt.

℣. The wise men worshipped the Captain of our Salvation, as He lay in the manger, and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto Him mystic gifts.

1 Cor 5:6-8

6 Non est bona gloriátio vestra. Nescítis, quia módicum ferméntum totam massam corrúmpit?

6 Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump?

7 Expurgáte vetus ferméntum, ut sitis nova conspérsio, sicut estis ázymi. Etenim Pascha nostrum immolátus est Christus.

7 Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste, as you are unleavened. For Christ our pasch is sacrificed.

8 Itaque epulémur: non in ferménto véteri, neque in ferménto malítiæ, et nequítiæ: sed in ázymis sinceritátis et veritátis.

8 Therefore let us feast, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

10 I mean not with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the extortioners, or the servers of idols; otherwise you must needs go out of this world.

11 Nunc autem scripsi vobis non commiscéri: si is, qui frater nominátur, est fornicátor, aut avárus, aut idólis sérviens, aut malédicus, aut ebriósus, aut rapax: cum huiúsmodi nec cibum súmere.

11 But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or a server of idols, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat.

40:2 Beátus qui intéllegit super egénum, et páuperem: * in die mala liberábit eum Dóminus.

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.

40:8 All my enemies whispered together against me: * they devised evils to me.

40:9 Verbum iníquum constituérunt advérsum me: * Numquid qui dormit non adíciet ut resúrgat?

40:9 They determined against me an unjust word: * shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?

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.

40:13 Me autem propter innocéntiam suscepísti: * et confirmásti me in conspéctu tuo in ætérnum.

40:13 But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence: * and hast established me in thy sight for ever.

Psalm 41(2-6) [2]

41:2 Quemádmodum desíderat cervus ad fontes aquárum: * ita desíderat ánima mea ad te, Deus.

41:2 As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; * so my soul panteth after thee, O God.

41:3 Sitívit ánima mea ad Deum fortem vivum: * quando véniam, et apparébo ante fáciem Dei?

41:3 My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; * when shall I come and appear before the face of God?

41:4 My tears have been my bread day and night, * whilst it is said to me daily: Where is thy God?

41:5 Hæc recordátus sum, et effúdi in me ánimam meam: * quóniam transíbo in locum tabernáculi admirábilis, usque ad domum Dei.

41:5 These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me: * for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God:

41:5 In voce exsultatiónis, et confessiónis: * sonus epulántis.

41:5 With the voice of joy and praise; * the noise of one feasting.

41:6 Quare tristis es, ánima mea? * et quare contúrbas me?

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.

43:15 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.

De Epístola prima ad Corínthios

Lesson from the first letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians

1 Cor 6:1-6

1 Cor 6:1-6

1 Audet áliquis vestrum, habens negótium advérsus álterum, iudicári apud iníquos, et non apud sanctos?

1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to be judged before the unjust, and not before the saints

2 An nescítis quóniam sancti de hoc mundo iudicábunt? Et si in vobis iudicábitur mundus, indígni estis qui de mínimis iudicétis?

2 Know you not that the saints shall judge this world And if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters

3 Nescítis quóniam ángelos iudicábimus? quanto magis sæculária?

3 Know you not that we shall judge angels how much more things of this world

4 Sæculária ígitur iudícia, si habuéritis: contemptíbiles, qui sunt in Ecclésia, illos constitúite ad iudicándum.

4 If therefore you have judgments of things pertaining to this world, set them to judge, who are the most despised in the church.

5 Ad verecúndiam vestram dico. Sic non est inter vos sapiens quisquam, qui possit iudicáre inter fratrem suum?

5 I speak to your shame. Is it so that there is not among you any one wise man, that is able to judge between his brethren

6 Sed frater cum fratre iudício conténdit: et hoc apud infidéles?

6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before unbelievers.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Tria sunt múnera pretiósa, quæ obtulérunt Magi Dómino in die ista, et habent in se divína mystéria:

℟. There are three precious gifts which the wise men offered unto the Lord on this day, and they speak a mystery of the things of God:

* In auro, ut ostendátur Regis poténtia: in thure, Sacerdótem magnum consídera: et in myrrha, Domínicam sepultúram.

* Gold, to show His kingly power; frankincense, for our Great High Priest; and myrrh, against the Lord's burying.

℣. Salútis nostræ auctórem Magi veneráti sunt in cunábulis, et de thesáuris suis mýsticas ei múnerum spécies obtulérunt.

℣. The wise men worshipped the Captain of our Salvation, as He lay in the manger, and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto Him mystic gifts.

℟. In auro, ut ostendátur Regis poténtia: in thure, Sacerdótem magnum consídera: et in myrrha, Domínicam sepultúram.

℟. Gold, to show His kingly power; frankincense, for our Great High Priest; and myrrh, against the Lord's burying.

1 Cor 6:7-11

7 Iam quidem omníno delíctum est in vobis, quod iudícia habétis inter vos. Quare non magis iniúriam accípitis? quare non magis fraudem patímini?

7 Already indeed there is plainly a fault among you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

8 Sed vos iniúriam fácitis, et fraudátis: et hoc frátribus.

8 But you do wrong and defraud, and that to your brethren.

9 An nescítis quia iníqui regnum Dei non possidébunt? Nolíte erráre: neque fornicárii, neque idólis serviéntes, neque adúlteri,

9 Know you not that the unjust shall not possess the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,

10 Neque molles, neque masculórum concubitóres, neque fures, neque avári, neque ebriósi, neque malédici, neque rapáces, regnum Dei possidébunt.

10 Nor the effeminate, nor liers with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners, shall possess the kingdom of God.

11 Et hæc quidam fuístis: sed ablúti estis, sed sanctificáti estis, sed iustificáti estis in nómine Dómini nostri Iesu Christi, et in Spíritu Dei nostri.

11 And such some of you were; but you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Spirit of our God.

1 Cor 6:12-18

12 Omnia mihi licent, sed non ómnia expédiunt. Omnia mihi licent, sed ego sub nullíus rédigar potestáte.

12 All things are lawful to me, but all things are not expedient. All things are lawful to me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

13 Esca ventri, et venter escis: Deus autem et hunc, et has déstruet: corpus autem non fornicatióni, sed Dómino: et Dóminus córpori.

13 Meat for the belly, and the belly for the meats; but God shall destroy both it and them: but the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

14 Deus vero et Dóminum suscitávit: et nos suscitábit per virtútem suam.

14 Now God hath both raised up the Lord, and will raise us up also by his power.

15 Nescítis quóniam córpora vestra membra sunt Christi? Tollens ergo membra Christi, fáciam membra meretrícis? Absit.

15 Know you not that your bodies are the members of Christ Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot God forbid.

16 An nescítis quóniam qui adhǽret meretríci, unum corpus effícitur? Erunt enim (inquit) duo in carne una.

16 Or know you not, that he who is joined to a harlot, is made one body For they shall be, saith he, two in one flesh.

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.

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

1 Cor 7:1-4

1 De quibus autem scripsístis mihi: Bonum est hómini mulíerem non tángere:

1 Now concerning the thing whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

2 Propter fornicatiónem autem, unusquísque suam uxórem hábeat, et unaquǽque suum virum hábeat.

3 Uxóri vir débitum reddat: simíliter autem et uxor viro.

3 Let the husband render the debt to his wife, and the wife also in like manner to the husband.

4 Múlier sui córporis potestátem non habet, sed vir. Simíliter autem et vir sui córporis potestátem non habet, sed múlier.

1 Cor 7:5-9

1 Cor 7:5-9

5 Nolíte fraudáre ínvicem, nisi forte ex consénsu ad tempus, ut vacétis oratióni: et íterum revertímini in idípsum, ne tentet vos sátanas propter incontinéntiam vestram.

5 Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.

6 Hoc autem dico secúndum indulgéntiam, non secúndum impérium.

6 But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.

7 Volo enim omnes vos esse sicut meípsum: sed unusquísque próprium donum habet ex Deo: álius quidem sic, álius vero sic.

7 For I would that all men were even as myself: but every one hath his proper gift from God; one after this manner, and another after that.

8 Dico autem non nuptis, et víduis: bonum est illis si sic permáneant, sicut et ego.

8 But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.

9 Quod si non se cóntinent, nubant. Mélius est enim núbere, quam uri.

9 But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.

1 Cor 7:10-14

1 Cor 7:10-14

10 Iis autem, qui matrimónio iuncti sunt, præcípio non ego, sed Dóminus, uxórem a viro non discédere:

10 But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.

11 Quod si discésserit, manére innúptam, aut viro suo reconciliári. Et vir uxórem non dimíttat.

11 And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.

12 Nam céteris ego dico, non Dóminus. Si quis frater uxórem habet infidélem et hæc conséntit habitáre cum illo, non dimíttat illam.

12 For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

13 Et si qua múlier fidélis habet virum infidélem, et hic conséntit habitáre cum illa, non dimíttat virum:

13 And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.

14 Sanctificátus est enim vir infidélis per mulíerem fidélem, et sanctificáta est múlier infidélis per virum fidélem: alióquin fílii vestri immúndi essent, nunc autem sancti sunt.

14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.

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:

72:18 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:

Sermo sancti Gregórii Nazianzéni

From the Sermons of St. Gregory of Nazianzus, Patriarch of Constantinople.

Oratio in sancta Lumina

Discourse on the Epiphany, 2

Non possum cohibére lætítiæ voluptátem, sed mente extóllor, et affícior: et própriæ pusillitátis oblítus, offícium magni Ioánnis, immo pótius famulátum subíre conténdo, ac géstio: et licet non sim præcúrsor, de erémo tamen vénio. Christus ergo illuminátur, immo pótius fulgóre suo nos illúminat: Christus baptizátur, simul et nos descendámus, ut cum ipso páriter ascendámus.

I am not able to restrain the outbursts of my happiness. I feel changed and elated. I forget my own meanness while I undertake and try to discharge the office of the great John. It is true that I am not the Forerunner, but at least I come from the desert. Christ is enlightened, or rather, He enlighteneth us with His own light. Christ is baptized; let us go down with Him into the water, that we may come up with Him.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Illumináre, illumináre Ierúsalem, quia venit lux tua:

℟. Shine, shine, O Jerusalem, for thy light is come;

* Et glória Dómini super te orta est.

* And the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.

℣. Et ambulábunt gentes in lúmine tuo, et reges in splendóre ortus tui.

℣. And the Gentiles shall walk in thy light, and kings in the brightness of thy rising.

℟. Et glória Dómini super te orta est.

Ioánnes baptízat, et accédit Iesus, sanctíficans quidem et ipsum, qui baptízat, præcípue tamen ut et véterem Adam sepéliat in aquis, et ante ómnia, ut per hæc sanctificéntur aquæ Iordánis: ut sicut erat spíritus et caro, ita et his, qui baptizándi erant, in spíritu et aqua sanctificatiónis succéssio traderétur. Non súscipit Baptísta, conténdit Iesus. Ego, inquit, opus hábeo a te baptizári. Lucérna dicit ad Solem, et vox lóquitur ad Verbum.

John is baptizing. Jesus cometh. He cometh that He may make holy him who baptizeth Him; He cometh to bury the old Adam in the waters; He cometh to hallow the blessed flood of Jordan. He Who is Flesh and Spirit cometh to open for all that should ever be baptized that power of generation whereby new peoples are constantly begotten of water and the Holy Ghost. The Baptist will not receive Him. Jesus striveth with him. I, saith John, have need to be baptized of thee. Thus speaketh the candle to the Sun, the voice to the Word.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Ascéndit Iesus de aqua, secum quodámmodo demérsum edúcens et élevans mundum: et vidit non dívidi cælum, sed aperíri, quod sibi ac nobis post se aliquándo Adam ille conclúserat; sicut et ígneo gládio paradísus fúerat conclúsus. Spíritus Sanctus testimónium pérhibet: simília namque sibi ipsa concúrrunt. De cælo testimónium defértur: inde enim erat ille, cui testimónium perhibétur.

Jesus came up out of the water, having, in a manner, washed the whole world, and brought it up with Him. And He saw the heavens opened not divided, even those heavens which Adam had once shut upon himself and us his descendants, when the cherub's fiery sword barred the gates of Paradise. And the Holy Spirit bare witness, witness unto Him Who is of One Substance with Himself. And witness was given from Heaven, unto Him that came down from heaven.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 1:29-34

John 1:29-34

In illo témpore: Vidit Ioánnes Iesum veniéntem ad se, et ait: Ecce Agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccátum mundi. Et réliqua.

At that time, John saw Jesus coming to him, and he saith: Behold the Lamb of God, behold him who taketh away the sin of the world. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo.

Tract. 6 in Ioann., ante med.

6th Tract on John

Antequam veníret Dóminus ut baptizarétur a Ioánne in Iordáne, nóverat eum illis vócibus, ubi ait: Tu ad me venis baptizári? ego a te débeo baptizári. Sed ecce Dóminum nóverat, nóverat Fílium Dei. Unde probámus quod iam nóverat, quia ipse baptizáret in Spíritu Sancto? Antequam veníret ad flúvium, cum multi ad Ioánnem cúrrerent baptizári, ait illis: Ego quidem baptízo vos in aqua: qui autem post me venit, maior me est: cuius non sum dignus corrígiam calceaménti sólvere: ipse vos baptizábit in Spíritu Sancto, et igni. Iam et hoc nóverat.

John knew Jesus even before He came to be baptized of him in Jordan, as we perceive by the words I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest Thou to me? Behold, how he knew that He was the Lord, how he knew that He was the Son of God! How do we prove that he knew that He it was Who should baptize with the Holy Ghost? Before the Lord came to the river, when many betook themselves to John to be baptized of him, the Baptist said I indeed baptize you with water but One Mightier than I cometh; the latchet of Whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire. Luke iii. 16. Behold, John knew this also.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Stella, quam víderant Magi in Oriénte, antecedébat eos, donec venírent ad locum, ubi puer erat.

℟. The star which the wise men had seen in the East, went before them, till they came where the young Child was.

* Vidéntes autem eam, gavísi sunt gáudio magno.

* And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

℣. Et intrántes domum, invenérunt púerum cum María matre eius, et procidéntes adoravérunt eum.

℣. And when they were come into the house, they found the young Child with Mary His Mother, and fell down and worshipped Him.

℟. Vidéntes autem eam, gavísi sunt gáudio magno.

℟. And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

Quid ergo per colúmbam dídicit, ne mendax póstea inveniátur, (quod avértat a nobis Deus opinári) nisi quamdam proprietátem in Christo talem futúram, ut quamvis multi minístri baptizatúri essent, sive iusti, sive iniústi, non tribuerétur sánctitas baptísmi nisi illi, super quem descéndit colúmba, de quo dictum est: Hic est qui baptízat in Spíritu Sancto? Petrus baptízet, hic est qui baptízat: Paulus baptízet, hic est qui baptízat: Iudas baptízet, hic est qui baptízat. Nam si pro diversitáte meritórum baptísma sanctum est: quia divérsa sunt mérita, divérsa erunt baptísmata: et tanto quisque áliquid mélius putátur accípere, quanto a melióre vidétur accepísse.

Yet John saith: I knew Him Now, how are we to explain this without calling John a liar? and God forbid that we should ever even think anything of the kind. Was it not that when the Dove descended on Christ, John then for the first time knew Him to have that peculiar attribute, that, whosoever should baptize with His Baptism, whether they were themselves just or unjust, the virtue of the Sacrament should proceed, not from them, but from Him on Whom abode the Dove; so that He is the real Baptizer in every Christian Baptism until the end of time, and it is in this sense that it is said of Him the Same is He Which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost Whether it be Peter, or Paul, or Judas, that performeth the ceremony, the real Baptizer and effectual Worker is Christ. For if the holiness of the baptism depended on the holiness of the particular officiator, no two baptisms would be exactly alike, and every one would be supposed to be more or less regenerated according as the minister who baptized him was more or less of a saint.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Vidéntes stellam Magi, gavísi sunt gáudio magno:

℟. When the wise men saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

* Et intrántes domum invenérunt púerum cum María matre eius, et procidéntes adoravérunt eum: * Et apértis thesáuris suis obtulérunt ei múnera, aurum, thus, et myrrham.

* And when they were come into the house, they found the young Child with Mary His Mother, and fell down and worshipped Him; *

℣. Stella, quam víderant Magi in Oriénte, antecedébat eos, usque dum véniens staret supra ubi erat puer.

and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto Him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.

℟. Et intrántes domum invenérunt púerum cum María matre eius, et procidéntes adoravérunt eum:

℣. The star which the wise men had seen in the East, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was.

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

℟. And when they were come into the house, they found the young Child with Mary His Mother, and fell down and worshipped Him.

℟. Et apértis thesáuris suis obtulérunt ei múnera, aurum, thus, et myrrham.

Reading 9

Ipsi sancti, (intellégite, fratres) boni pertinéntes ad colúmbam, pertinéntes ad sortem civitátis illíus Ierúsalem, ipsi boni in Ecclésia, de quibus dicit Apóstolus: Novit Dóminus qui sunt eius; diversárum gratiárum sunt, non omnes pária mérita habent. Sunt álii áliis sanctióres, sunt álii áliis melióres. Quare ergo si unus ab illo, verbi grátia, iusto, sancto baptizétur, álius ab álio inferióris mériti apud Deum, inferióris gradus, inferióris continéntiæ, inferióris vitæ; unum tamen et par et æquále est quod accepérunt, nisi quia hic est, qui baptízat?

Now, my brethren, understand me. The saints themselves, those good men who appertain to the Dove, those good men whose portion is in Jerusalem, those good men in the Church, of whom the Apostle saith: the Lord knoweth them that are His, 2 Tim. ii. 19, these good men differ one from another by diversities of graces, and are not all of the same worthiness. Some are holier than others, and some are better than others. Supposing then for the sake of argument that A is baptized by B, a righteous saint, and C is baptized by D who is less worthy in the sight of God, who hath attained only a lower degree in godliness, who is not so chaste, and whose life is not so good as B's, yet A and C receive just the same thing. And how is this, unless it be that it is Christ Himself Who is the effectual Baptizer?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Bethlehem, of noblest cities

Maior Bethlem, cui cóntigit

Incorporátum gígnere.

To the lands their God announcing,

Cum carne terréstri Deum.

Vidére postquam illum Magi,

By its lambent beauty guided,

Eóa promunt múnera:

Thus, myrrham, et aurum régium.

Gold a royal child proclaimeth;

Pulvis sepúlcrum prǽdocet.

Myrrh a future tomb foreshows.

2 On the first day of the week let every one of you put apart with himself, laying up what it shall well please him; that when I come, the collections be not then to be made.

3 Cum autem præsens fúero: quos probavéritis per epístolas, hos mittam perférre grátiam vestram in Ierúsalem.

3 And when I shall be with you, whomsoever you shall approve by letters, them will I send to carry your grace to Jerusalem.

6 And with you perhaps I shall abide, or even spend the winter: that you may bring me on my way whithersoever I shall go.

11 Let no man therefore despise him, but conduct ye him on his way in peace: that he may come to me. For I look for him with the brethren.

12 De Apóllo autem fratre vobis notum fácio, quóniam multum rogávi eum, ut veníret ad vos cum frátribus: et útique non fuit volúntas, ut nunc veníret: véniet autem, cum ei vácuum fúerit.

Hilárius, in Aquitánia nóbili génere natus, doctrína et eloquéntia excélluit. Pictavórum epíscopus creátus, tale munus sic gessit, ut a fidélibus summam laudem consequerétur. Ob cathólicam fidem, quam strénue propugnávit, quadriénnio apud Phrýgiam relegátus, inter ália mirácula, mórtuum suscitávit. Duódecim libros scripsit de Trinitáte contra Ariános, et Gálliam univérsam addúxit, ut Arianórum impietátem condemnáret. Multos libros scripsit mira eruditióne; quos omnes sanctus Hierónymus ad Lætam sine ulla erróris suspicióne legi posse testátur illis verbis: Hilárii libros inoffénso decúrrat pede. Migrávit in cælum idibus ianuárii, anno trecentésimo sexagésimo nono. Eum Pius nonus Póntifex máximus, instánte sýnodo Burdigalénsi, Doctórem universális Ecclésiæ declarávit et confirmávit.

Hilary, born of a noble family in Aquitaine, had few equals in teaching and eloquence. Made bishop of Poitiers, he exercised his ministry in such a way as to gain the highest praise from the faithful. His vigorous campaign for the Catholic faith led to a four year exile in Phrygia. There he raised a dead man to life and performed other miracles. He wrote twelve books on the Trinity against the Arians, and induced all Gaul to condemn the Arian blasphemy. He wrote many books showing wonderful learning; St. Jerome writing to Laeta, testifies in these words that they can be read with out the least fear of error: one can run through Hilary's works without stumbling. He went to heaven on the 13th of January in the year 369. Pius IX, at the request of the synod of Bordeaux, declared and confirmed him to be a Doctor of the universal Church.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

6 Sive autem tribulámur pro vestra exhortatióne et salúte, sive consolámur pro vestra consolatióne, sive exhortámur pro vestra exhortatióne et salúte, quæ operátur tolerántiam earúndem passiónum, quas et nos pátimur:

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 2:1-11

John 2:1-11

In illo témpore: Núptiæ factæ sunt in Cana Galilǽæ, et erat mater Iesu ibi. Vocátus est autem et Iesus, et discípuli eius ad núptias. Et réliqua.

At that time, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there. And Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo.

Tract. 9 in Ioannem, post initium

Tract. 9 in John

Quod Dóminus invitátus venit ad núptias, étiam excépta mýstica significatióne, confirmáre vóluit, quod ipse fecit núptias. Futúri enim erant, de quibus dixit Apóstolus, prohibéntes núbere, et dicéntes quod malum essent núptiæ, et quod diábolus eas fecísset: cum idem Dóminus dicat in Evangélio interrogátus, utrum líceat hómini dimíttere uxórem suam ex quálibet causa, non licére, excépta causa fornicatiónis. In qua responsióne, si meminístis, hoc ait: Quod Deus coniúnxit, homo non séparet.

Even setting aside any mystical interpretation, the fact that the Lord was pleased to be asked, and to go to a marriage, showeth plainly enough that He is the Author and Blesser of marriage. There were yet to be those of whom the Apostle hath warned us as forbidding to marry; who say that marriage is a bad thing in itself, and a work of the devil. Yet we read in the Gospel that when the Lord was asked, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? He answered that it was not lawful, except it were for fornication. In which answer ye will remember that He used these words: What God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Noctem diémque qui regis,

Who day and night about dost bring:

Et témporum das témpora,

Who weary mortals to relieve,

Ut álleves fastídium.

Dost in their times the seasons give:

Noctúrna lux viántibus

Now the shrill cock proclaims the day,

A nocte noctem ségregans,

And calls the sun’s awak’ning ray

Præco diéi iam sonat,

The wand’ring pilgrim’s guiding light,

Iubárque solis évocat.

That marks the watches night by night.

Hoc excitátus Lúcifer

Roused at the note, the morning star

Solvit polum calígine:

Heaven’s dusky veil uplifts afar:

Night’s vagrant bands no longer roam,

Viam nocéndi déserit.

But from their dark ways hie them home.

Bestirs who still in sleep would lie,

Gallus negántes árguit.

New hope his clarion-note awakes,

Ægris salus refúnditur,

Sickness the feeble frame forsakes,

Mucro latrónis cónditur,

The robber sheathes his lawless sword,

Lapsis fides revértitur.

Faith to the fallen is restored.

Iesu, labántes réspice,

Look on us, Jesu, when we fall,

Et nos vidéndo córrige:

And with thy look our souls recall:

Si réspicis, labes cadunt,

If thou but look, our sins are gone,

Fletúque culpa sólvitur.

De Epístola secúnda ad Corínthios

Lesson from the second letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians

2 Cor 3:1-3

2 Cor 3:1-3

1 Incípimus íterum nosmetípsos commendáre? aut numquid egémus (sicut quidam) commendatítiis epístolis ad vos, aut ex vobis?

1 Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need (as some do) epistles of commendation to you, or from you?

2 Epístola nostra vos estis, scripta in córdibus nostris, quæ scitur, et legitur ab ómnibus homínibus:

2 You are our epistle, written in our hearts, which is known and read by all men:

3 Manifestáti quod epístola estis Christi, ministráta a nobis, et scripta non atraménto, sed Spíritu Dei vivi: non in tábulis lapídeis, sed in tábulis cordis carnálibus.

3 Being manifested, that you are the epistle of Christ, ministered by us, and written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in the fleshly tables of the heart.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Quam magna multitúdo dulcédinis tuæ, Dómine,

℟. O how great is thy goodness, O Lord

* Quam abscondísti timéntibus te!

* Which Thou hast laid up for them that fear thee!

℣. Et perfecísti eis qui sperant in te, Dómine, in conspéctu filiórum hóminum.

℣. Which Thou, O Lord, hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!

2 Cor 3:4-8

2 Cor 3:4-8

4 Fidúciam autem talem habémus per Christum ad Deum:

4 And such confidence we have, through Christ, towards God.

5 Non quod sufficiéntes simus cogitáre áliquid a nobis, quasi ex nobis: sed sufficiéntia nostra ex Deo est:

5 Not that we are sufficient to think any thing of ourselves, as of ourselves: but our sufficiency is from God.

6 Qui et idóneos nos fecit minístros novi Testaménti, non líttera, sed Spíritu: líttera enim occídit, Spíritus autem vivíficat.

6 Who also hath made us fit ministers of the new testament, not in the letter, but in the spirit. For the letter killeth, but the spirit quickeneth.

7 Quod si ministrátio mortis lítteris deformáta in lapídibus, fuit in glória, ita ut non possent inténdere fílii Israël in fáciem Móysi propter glóriam vultus eius, quæ evacuátur:

7 Now if the ministration of death, engraven with letters upon stones, was glorious; so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses, for the glory of his countenance, which is made void:

8 Quómodo non magis ministrátio Spíritus erit in glória?

8 How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather in glory?

2 Cor 3:9-14

2 Cor 3:9-14

9 Nam si ministrátio damnatiónis glória est: multo magis abúndat ministérium iustítiæ in glória.

9 For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more the ministration of justice aboundeth in glory.

10 Nam nec glorificátum est, quod cláruit in hac parte, propter excelléntem glóriam.

10 For even that which was glorious in this part was not glorified, by reason of the glory that excelleth.

11 Si enim quod evacuátur, per glóriam est: multo magis quod manet, in glória est.

11 For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is in glory.

12 Habéntes ígitur talem spem, multa fidúcia útimur:

12 Having therefore such hope, we use much confidence:

13 Et non sicut Móyses ponébat velámen super fáciem suam, ut non inténderent fílii Israël in fáciem eius, quod evacuátur,

13 And not as Moses put a veil upon his face, that the children of Israel might not steadfastly look on the face of that which is made void.

14 Sed obtúsi sunt sensus eórum. Usque in hodiérnum enim diem idípsum velámen in lectióne véteris Testaménti manet non revelátum, quóniam in Christo evacuátur.

14 But their senses were made dull. For, until this present day, the selfsame veil, in the reading of the old testament, remaineth not taken away (because in Christ it is made void).

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Benedícam Dóminum in omni témpore:

℟. I will bless the Lord at all times.

* Semper laus eius in ore meo.

* His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

℣. In Dómino laudábitur ánima mea, áudiant mansuéti, et læténtur.

℣. My soul shall make her boast in the Lord; the humble shall hear thereof and be glad.

℟. Semper laus eius in ore meo.

Marcéllus Románus, a Constántio et Galério usque ad Maxéntium pontificátum gessit. Eius hortátu Lucína, matróna Romána, bonórum suórum Dei Ecclésiam fecit herédem. Aucto in Urbe fidélium número, novos Títulos instítuit, et quasi álteras diœcéses distríbuit. Quare irátus Maxéntius, grávia supplícia minátur, nisi, depósito pontificátu, idólis immoláret. Acriter réstitit póntifex, ideóque missus fuit in catábulum, ut bestiárum, quæ públice alebántur, curam sustinéret. Novem menses ibi tradúxit, paróchias, quas præsens non póterat, vísitans per epístolas. Inde eréptus a cléricis, hospítio recípitur a beáta Lucína, in cuius ǽdibus ecclésiam dedicávit, ubi fidélibus prædicábat. Tunc Maxéntius in eam ecclésiam béstias catábuli transférri et a Marcéllo custodíri iubet: qui, loci fœditáte et ærúmnis afflíctus obdormívit in Dómino. Eius corpus in cœmetério Priscíllæ via Salária a beáta Lucína sepúltum est die décima sexta ianuárii.

Marcellus of Rome was Pope from the reign of Constantius and Galerius to that of Maxentius. At his suggestion the Roman lady Lucina willed her property to God's Church. Because the number of the faithful in the city had increased, he set up new parishes and divided the City into various districts. This angered Maxentius and he threatened Marcellus with heavy punishments unless he would abandon his pontificate and sacrifice to idols. The Pope resisted steadfastly, and so Maxentius had him sent to the stable to take care of the beasts fed at the public expense. Marcellus spent nine months there, and since he could not be present in his parishes in person, he visited them by his letters. He was rescued from this place by some clerics and given hospitality by Lucina in whose house he dedicated a church where he preached to the faithful. Then Maxentius ordered the beasts moved from the stable to the church, so that Marcellus again had to take care of them. The foul atmosphere of the place and his hardships soon proved fatal to Marcellus. He died in the Lord, and was buried in the cemetery of Priscilla on the Salarian Way by blessed Lucina, on January 16.

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.

2 Cor 5:1-4

2 Cor 5:1-4

1 Scimus enim quóniam, si terréstris domus nostra huius habitatiónis dissolvátur, quod ædificatiónem ex Deo habémus, domum non manufáctam, ætérnam in cælis.

1 For we know, if our earthly house of this habitation be dissolved, that we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in heaven.

2 Nam et in hoc ingemíscimus, habitatiónem nostram, quæ de cælo est, superíndui cupiéntes:

2 For in this also we groan, desiring to be clothed upon with our habitation that is from heaven.

3 Si tamen vestíti, non nudi inveniámur.

3 Yet so that we be found clothed, not naked.

4 Nam et qui sumus in hoc tabernáculo, ingemíscimus graváti: eo quod nólumus exspoliári, sed supervestíri, ut absorbeátur quod mortále est, a vita.

4 For we also, who are in this tabernacle, do groan, being burthened; because we would not be unclothed, but clothed upon, that that which is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Auribus pércipe, Deus, lácrimas meas: ne síleas a me, remítte mihi:

2 Cor 5:6-10

2 Cor 5:6-10

6 Audéntes ígitur semper, sciéntes, quóniam dum sumus in córpore, peregrinámur a Dómino:

6 Therefore having always confidence, knowing that, while we are in the body, we are absent from the Lord.

7 (per fidem enim ambulámus, et non per spéciem)

7 (For we walk by faith, and not by sight.)

8 Audémus autem, et bonam voluntátem habémus magis peregrinári a córpore, et præséntes esse ad Dóminum.

8 But we are confident, and have a good will to be absent rather from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

9 Et ídeo conténdimus sive abséntes, sive præséntes, placére illi.

9 And therefore we labour, whether absent or present, to please him.

10 Omnes enim nos manifestári opórtet ante tribúnal Christi, ut réferat unusquísque própria córporis, prout gessit, sive bonum, sive malum.

10 For we must all be manifested before the judgement seat of Christ, that every one may receive the proper things of the body, according as he hath done, whether it be good or evil.

2 Cor 5:11-15

2 Cor 5:11-15

11 Sciéntes ergo timórem Dómini homínibus suadémus, Deo autem manifésti sumus. Spero autem et in consciéntiis vestris maniféstos nos esse.

11 Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we use persuasion to men; but to God we are manifest. And I trust also that in your consciences we are manifest.

12 Non íterum commendámus nos vobis, sed occasiónem damus vobis gloriándi pro nobis: ut habeátis ad eos qui in fácie gloriántur, et non in corde.

12 We commend not ourselves again to you, but give you occasion to glory in our behalf; that you may have somewhat to answer them who glory in face, and not in heart.

13 Sive enim mente excédimus, Deo: sive sóbrii sumus, vobis.

13 For whether we be transported in mind, it is to God; or whether we be sober, it is for you.

14 Cáritas enim Christi urget nos: æstimántes hoc, quóniam si unus pro ómnibus mórtuus est, ergo omnes mórtui sunt:

14 For the charity of Christ presseth us: judging this, that if one died for all, then all were dead.

15 Et pro ómnibus mórtuus est Christus: ut et qui vivunt, iam non sibi vivant, sed ei qui pro ipsis mórtuus est et resurréxit.

15 And Christ died for all; that they also who live, may not now live to themselves, but unto him who died for them, and rose again.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Reading 3

Antónius Ægýptius, cum ingréssus ecclésiam ex Evangélio audivísset: Si vis perféctus esse, vade, et vende ómnia quæ habes, et da paupéribus; tamquam ea sibi dicta essent, sic Christo Dómino obtemperándum existimávit. Itaque, véndita re familiári, prétium distríbuit paupéribus, ipséque in vastam Ægýpti solitúdinem recéssit. Virtútum ómnium stúdio ita incénsus fuit, ut, quemcúmque vidéret áliqua virtútis laude excelléntem, illum imitári studéret. Nihil ígitur eo continéntius, nihil vigilántius erat. Tanto terróri dæmónibus erat, ut multi per Ægýptum ab illis agitáti, nómine Antónii super ipsos invocáto, liberaréntur. Ita, sanctitáte et miráculis clarus, cum innumerábiles sui institúti imitatóres habéret, annum agens quintum ultra centésimum, e vita migrávit décimo sexto kaléndas februárias.

When Anthony of Egypt entered a church and heard the words of the Gospel, “If you will be perfect, go, sell all that you have and give to the poor,” he took them as if said to him personally, thinking that this is how Christ should be obeyed. And so, having sold his family possessions and distributed the money to the poor, he withdrew to the vast solitudes of Egypt. He was so fired with zeal for all virtues that, whenever he saw anyone praiseworthy for excelling in any virtue, he strove to imitate him. None was more disciplined than he, none more watchful. He was so great a terror to the demons that many persons throughout Egypt who were troubled by them were set free merely by invoking Anthony's name. And so, famous for his holiness and his miracles, when he had drawn innumerable other men and women to follow his example, he departed this life in the hundred and fifth Year of his age, on January 17.

2 Cor 7:8-10

8 Quóniam etsi contristávi vos in epístola, non me pœ́nitet: et si pœnitéret, videns quod epístola illa (etsi ad horam) vos contristávit;

8 For although I made you sorrowful by my epistle, I do not repent; and if I did repent, seeing that the same epistle (although but for a time) did make you sorrowful;

9 Nunc gáudeo: non quia contristáti estis, sed quia contristáti estis ad pœniténtiam. Contristáti enim estis secúndum Deum, ut in nullo detriméntum patiámini ex nobis.

9 Now I am glad: not because you were made sorrowful; but because you were made sorrowful unto penance. For you were made sorrowful according to God, that you might suffer damage by us in nothing.

10 Quæ enim secúndum Deum tristítia est, pœniténtiam in salútem stábilem operátur: sǽculi autem tristítia mortem operátur.

10 For the sorrow that is according to God worketh penance, steadfast unto salvation; but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

January 19th 2034, the 29th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Romæ, via Cornélia, sanctórum Mártyrum Márii et Marthæ coniúgum, et filiórum Audifácis et Abachum, nobílium Persárum; qui Romam, tempóribus Cláudii Príncipis, ad oratiónem vénerant. Ex eis vero, post tolerátos fustes, equúleum, ignes, ungues férreos manuúmque præcisiónem, Martha in Nympha necáta est; ceteri sunt decolláti, et córpora eórum incénsa.

At Worcester, in England, (in the year 1095,) the holy Confessor Wolstan, Bishop of that see, famous for his worthy and wondrous works, whose name was enrolled among those of the saints by Innocent III.

Item sancti Canúti, Regis et Mártyris.

At Rome, (in the year 270,) upon the Cornelian Way, the holy martyrs Maris, and Martha, his wife, and their sons Audifax and Abachum. These were noble Persians, who came to Rome for prayer's sake in the time of the Emperor Claudius. They were cudgelled, racked, burnt, torn with iron hooks, and had their hands cut off. At length Martha was drowned and the others beheaded, and their bodies cast into the fire.

Smyrnæ natális beáti Germánici Mártyris, qui, sub Marco Antoníno et Lúcio Aurélio, cum primǽvæ ætátis venustáte floréret, damnátus a Iúdice, et, per grátiam virtútis Dei, metum córporeæ fragilitátis exclúdens, præparátam sibi béstiam sponte provocávit; cuius déntibus comminútus, vero pani Dómino Iesu Christo, pro ipso móriens, méruit incorporári.

At Smyrna, in the time of the Emperors Marcus Antoninus and Lucius Aurelius, the blessed martyr Germanicus. He was a very beautiful youth, but by the power of God's grace he laid aside all the weakness of bodily fear, and of his own accord provoked the beast by which he had been condemned by the judge to be killed and so being ground through its teeth, and so dying for the Lord Jesus Christ, he earned to be made one body with Him who is Himself the very Bread which came down from heaven.

In Africa sanctórum Mártyrum Pauli, Geróntii, Ianuárii, Saturníni, Succéssi, Iúlii, Cati, Piæ et Germánæ.

In Africa, the holy martyrs Paul, Gerontius, Januarius, Saturninus, Successus, Julius, Catus, Pia, and Germana, (and others to the number in all of 600.)

Apud Spolétum pássio sancti Pontiáni Mártyris, qui, témpore Antoníni Imperatóris, a Fabiáno Iúdice, pro Christo vehementíssime virgis cæsus, iussus est super carbónes nudis pédibus ambuláre, sed a carbónibus nil læsus, equúleo et uncínis férreis iussus est suspéndi, et sic in cárcerem trudi, ubi Angélica visitatióne méruit confortári; postque leónibus expósitus et plumbo fervénti perfúsus, tandem gládio percússus est.

At Spoleto, in the time of the Emperor Antonine, the holy martyr Pontian. Fabian, the judge, caused him to be first most grievously beaten with rods and then to walk barefoot upon live coals by these he was unhurt, and was therefore racked, lacerated with iron hooks, and cast into prison, where he was comforted by a visitation of angels. Lastly he was thrown to the lions, had molten lead poured over him, and was then beheaded.

Laudæ, in Insúbria, sancti Bassiáni, Epíscopi et Confessóris, qui advérsus hæréticos, una cum sancto Ambrósio, strénue decertávit.

At Lodi, (about the year 413,) the holy Confessor Bassian, Bishop of that see, who fought manfully along with holy Ambrose against the heretics.

2 Cor 10:8-12

8 Nam, et si ámplius áliquid gloriátus fúero de potestáte nostra, quam dedit Dóminus in ædificatiónem, et non in destructiónem vestram: non erubéscam.

8 For if also I should boast somewhat more of our power, which the Lord hath given us unto edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed.

9 Ut autem non exístimer tamquam terrére vos per epístolas:

9 But that I may not be thought as it were to terrify you by epistles,

10 Quóniam quidem epístolæ, ínquiunt, graves sunt et fortes: præséntia autem córporis infírma, et sermo contemptíbilis:

10 (For his epistles indeed, say they, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible,)

11 Hoc cógitet qui eiúsmodi est, quia quales sumus verbo per epístolas abséntes, tales et præséntes in facto.

11 Let such a one think this, that such as we are in word by epistles, when absent, such also we will be indeed when present.

12 Non enim audémus insérere, aut comparáre nos quibúsdam, qui seípsos comméndant: sed ipsi in nobis nosmetípsos metiéntes, et comparántes nosmetípsos nobis.

12 For we dare not match, or compare ourselves with some, that commend themselves; but we measure ourselves by ourselves, and compare ourselves with ourselves.

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

℣. Sed et lingua mea meditábitur iustítiam tuam, tota die laudem tuam.

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.

72:24 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:

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?

77:19 And they spoke ill of God: * they said: Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?

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?

77:20 Can he also give bread, * or provide a table for his people?

77:21 Ídeo audívit Dóminus, et dístulit: * et ignis accénsus est in Iacob, et ira ascéndit in Israël.

77:21 Therefore the Lord heard, and was angry: * and a fire was kindled against Jacob, and wrath came up against Israel.

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.

77:26 Tránstulit Austrum de cælo: * et indúxit in virtúte sua Áfricum.

77:26 He removed the south wind from heaven: * and by his power brought in the southwest wind.

77:27 Et pluit super eos sicut púlverem carnes: * et sicut arénam maris volatília pennáta.

77:27 And he rained upon them flesh as dust: * and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea.

77:28 Et cecidérunt in médio castrórum eórum: * circa tabernácula eórum.

77:28 And they fell in the midst of their camp, * round about their pavilions.

77:29 Et manducavérunt, et saturáti sunt nimis, et desidérium eórum áttulit eis: * non sunt fraudáti a desidério suo.

77:29 So they did eat, and were filled exceedingly, and he gave them their desire: * they were not defrauded of that which they craved.

77:30 Adhuc escæ eórum erant in ore ipsórum: * et ira Dei ascéndit super eos.

77:30 As yet their meat was in their mouth: * and the wrath of God came upon them.

77:31 Et occídit pingues eórum, * et eléctos Israël impedívit.

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?

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.

78:5 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:

1 Si gloriári opórtet (non éxpedit quidem) véniam autem ad visiónes, et revelatiónes Dómini.

1 If I must glory (it is not expedient indeed): but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

2 Scio hóminem in Christo ante annos quatuórdecim (sive in córpore néscio, sive extra corpus, néscio, Deus scit:) raptum huiúsmodi usque ad tértium cælum.

2 I know a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I know not, or out of the body, I know not; God knoweth), such a one caught up to the third heaven.

3 Et scio huiúsmodi hóminem, (sive in córpore, sive extra corpus, néscio, Deus scit:)

3 And I know such a man (whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not: God knoweth):

4 Quóniam raptus est in paradísum: et audívit arcána verba, quæ non licet hómini loqui.

4 That he was caught up into paradise, and heard secret words, which it is not granted to man to utter.

2 Cor 12:5-9

2 Cor 12:5-9

5 Pro huiúsmodi gloriábor: pro me autem nihil gloriábor, nisi in infirmitátibus meis.

5 For such an one I will glory; but for myself I will glory nothing, but in my infirmities.

6 Nam, et si volúero gloriári, non ero insípiens: veritátem enim dicam: parco autem, ne quis me exístimet supra id, quod videt in me, aut áliquid audit ex me.

6 For though I should have a mind to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I will say the truth. But I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth in me, or any thing he heareth from me.

7 Et ne magnitúdo revelatiónum extóllat me, datus est mihi stímulus carnis meæ ángelus sátanæ, qui me colaphízet.

7 And lest the greatness of the revelations should exalt me, there was given me a sting of my flesh, an angel of Satan, to buffet me.

8 Propter quod ter Dóminum rogávi, ut discéderet a me:

8 For which thing thrice I besought the Lord, that it might depart from me.

9 Et dixit mihi: Súfficit tibi grátia mea: nam virtus in infirmitáte perfícitur.

9 And he said to me: My grace is sufficient for thee; for power is made perfect in infirmity.

2 Cor 12:9-11

2 Cor 12:9-11

9 Libénter ígitur gloriábor in infirmitátibus meis, ut inhábitet in me virtus Christi.

9 Gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me.

10 Propter quod pláceo mihi in infirmitátibus meis, in contuméliis, in necessitátibus, in persecutiónibus, in angústiis pro Christo: Cum enim infírmor, tunc potens sum.

10 For which cause I please myself in my infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ. For when I am weak, then am I powerful.

11 Factus sum insípiens, vos me coëgístis. Ego enim a vobis débui commendári: nihil enim minus fui ab iis, qui sunt supra modum, Apóstoli: tamétsi nihil sum.

11 I am become foolish: you have compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you: for I have no way come short of them that are above measure apostles, although I be nothing.

Fabiánus Románus, a Maximíno usque ad Décium regens Ecclésiam, septem diáconis regiónes divísit, qui páuperum curam habérent. Tótidem subdiáconos creávit, qui res gestas Mártyrum a septem notáriis scriptas collígerent. Idem státuit, ut quotánnis féria quinta in Cœna Dómini, vétere combústo, Chrisma renovarétur. Dénique décimo tértio kaléndas februárii martýrio coronátus, in cœmetério Callísti via Appia sepelítur. Sebastiánus, ob géneris nobilitátem et virtútem Diocletiáno carus, dux primæ cohórtis, Christiános, quorum fidem clam colébat, ópera et facultátibus adiuvábat, et in Christi confessióne confirmábat. Quibus Diocletiáno delátis, Sebastiánum ómnibus artifíciis a Christi fide conátur avértere. Sed cum nihil nec pollicéndo, nec terréndo profíceret, ad palum alligátum sagíttis confígi iubet. Verum Dei servus, ómnium opinióne mórtuus iudicátus, cum paulo post, sanus Diocletiáno óbviam factus, eius impietátem libérius accusáret, iussu tyránni támdiu virgis cæsus est, donec spíritum rédderet.

Fabian, a Roman, ruled the Church from the time of Maximian to that of Decius. He divided the City into seven districts and assigned a deacon to each to care for the poor. He appointed the same number of subdeacons to collect the Acts of the Martyrs from the records of the district notaries. He decreed that every year on Holy Thursday the old chrism be burned and new chrism consecrated. At length, on January 20, he was crowned with martyrdom and buried in the cemetery of Callistus on the Appian Way. Sebastian was a favorite with Diocletian for his noble birth and his bravery, and was made captain of the first company of the Praetorian guards. He aided the Christians, whose faith he secretly practiced, both by deeds and by material help and strengthened them in professing Christ. When all this was reported to Diocletian, he tried by every means to turn Sebastian away from faith in Christ. But when neither promises nor threats were successful, he ordered him to be tied to a post and shot through with arrows. The servant of God was then thought by all to be dead, but shortly afterwards, restored to health, he appeared in Diocletian's presence and boldly rebuked him for his wickedness. Then the tyrant ordered him beaten with rods until he expired.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

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:

45:20 I have not spoken in secret, * in a dark place of the earth:

45:21 Non dixi sémini Iacob frustra: Quǽrite me: * ego Dóminus loquens iustítiam, annúntians recta.

45:23 They have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven work, * and pray to a god that cannot save.

45:24 Annuntiáte, et veníte, et consiliámini simul: * Quis audítum fecit hoc ab inítio, ex tunc prædíxit illud?

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 In memetípso iurávi, egrediétur de ore meo iustítiæ verbum, * et non revertétur:

45:28 Quia mihi curvábitur omne genu, * et iurábit omnis lingua.

Ex libro S. Ambrósii Epíscopi de Virgínibus

From the book of St. Ambrose, Bishop, on Virgins

Liber 1, post initium

Book I, near the beginning

Hódie natális est Vírginis, integritátem sequámur. Natális est Mártyris, hóstias immolémus. Natális est sanctæ Agnétis, miréntur viri, non despérent párvuli, stúpeant nuptæ, imiténtur innúptæ. Sed quid dignum ea loqui póssumus, cuius ne nomen quidem vácuum laudis est? Devótio supra ætátem, virtus supra natúram: ut mihi videátur non hóminis habuísse nomen, sed oráculum Mártyris, quod indicávit, quid esset futúra. Nomen Vírginis títulus est pudóris. Appellábo Mártyrem: prædicávi satis. Prolíxa laudátio est, quæ non quǽritur, sed tenétur. Nemo est laudabílior, quam qui ab ómnibus laudári potest. Quot hómines, tot præcónes, qui Mártyrem prǽdicant, dum loquúntur. Hæc trédecim annórum martýrium fecísse tráditur. Quo destabílior crudélitas quæ nec minúsculæ pepércit ætáti; immo magna vis fídei, quæ étiam ab illa testimónium invénit ætáte.

Today is the birthday of a Virgin; let us imitate her virginal innocence. It is the birthday of a Martyr; let us also bring sacrifice. It is the birthday of St. Agnes; let men look up in admiration and children not be disheartened. You married, be filled with wonder; you unmarried, follow in her footsteps. But where shall we find words of adequate praise, since her very name bespeaks her glory and renown? In her we see a devotion that far surpasses her age; a virtue that exceeds all Power of nature. Hence, it seems to me that she had not merely a human name, but, prophetically, she was given the name of a Martyr to indicate beforehand what she was to be. The name of our Virgin to a guarantee of her purity. If I call her Martyr, already I have praised enough. For, that is great praise indeed, which one does not need to seek but is freely given by others. No one can be more praised than one who is praised by all. As many men, so many encomiums. They have only to mention her name to praise her as a Martyr. According to tradition, it was in her thirteenth year that she suffered martyrdom. How despicable the cruelty that spared not even this tender age! But how great the power of faith that found even that age its witness.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Undécimo Kaléndas Februárii Luna secúnda Anno Dómini 2034

January 22nd 2034, the 2nd day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Valéntiæ, in Hispánia Tarraconénsi, sancti Vincéntii, Levítæ et Mártyris; qui, sub impiíssimo Prǽside Daciáno, cárceres, famem, equúleum, distorsiónes membrórum, láminas candéntes, férream cratem ignítam áliaque tormentórum génera perpéssus, ad martýrii prǽmium evolávit in cælum; cuius passiónis nóbilem triúmphum Prudéntius luculénter vérsibus exséquitur, et beátus Augustínus ac sanctus Leo Papa summis láudibus comméndant.

At Valentia, in Spain, the holy Levite and martyr Vincent. Under the wicked Prefect Dacian he suffered imprisonment, starvation, racking, twisting of his limbs, red-hot plates, and bed of red-hot iron, and other kinds of torments, and passed away to heaven to receive there a martyr's reward, (in the year 304.) The glorious triumph of his passion hath been set forth by Prudentius in noble poetry, and the blessed Augustine and the holy Pope Leo have praised him in the highest language.

Apud Bethsáloën, in Assýria, sancti Anastásii Persæ Mónachi, qui, post plúrima torménta cárceris, vérberum et vinculórum, quæ in Cæsaréa Palæstínæ perpéssus fúerat, a Persárum Rege Chósroa multis pœnis afféctus, ad últimum decollátus est, cum prius septuagínta Sócios, qui fúerant in fluénta demérsi, ad martýrium præmisísset. Eius caput Romam, ad Aquas Sálvias, delátum est, una cum veneránda eius imágine, cuius aspéctu fugári dǽmones morbósque curári, Acta secúndi Concílii Nicǽni testántur.

In Persia, the holy monk Anastasius, who, after enduring many torments of imprisonment, stripes, and bonds at Caesarea, in Palestine, suffered much again under Chosroes, King of the Persians, and was at length beheaded, when he had sent before him seventy companions who suffered martyrdom by drowning, (in the year 628.) His head and his venerable image were afterwards brought to Rome, and the acts of the Second Council of Nicea bear witness that at the sight of them devils fly and diseases are healed.

Ebredúni, in Gálliis, sanctórum Mártyrum Vincéntii, Oróntii et Victóris, qui martýrio in Diocletiáni persecutióne coronáti sunt.

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

Nováriæ sancti Gaudéntii, Epíscopi et Confessóris.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Gal 1:6-10

Gal 1:6-10

6 Miror quod sic tam cito transferímini ab eo, qui vos vocávit in grátiam Christi in áliud Evangélium:

6 I wonder that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ, unto another gospel.

7 Quod non est áliud, nisi sunt áliqui, qui vos contúrbant, et volunt convértere Evangélium Christi.

7 Which is not another, only there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 Sed licet nos, aut Angelus de cælo evangelízet vobis prætérquam quod evangelizávimus vobis, anáthema sit.

8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema.

9 Sicut prædíximus, et nunc íterum dico: Si quis vobis evangelizáverit præter id, quod accepístis, anáthema sit.

9 As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema.

10 Modo enim homínibus suádeo, an Deo? An quæro homínibus placére? Si adhuc homínibus placérem, Christi servus non essem.

10 For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? If I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Gal 1:11-14

Gal 1:11-14

11 Notum enim vobis fácio, fratres, Evangélium, quod evangelizátum est a me, quia non est secúndum hóminem:

11 For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.

12 Neque enim ego ab hómine accépi illud, neque dídici, sed per revelatiónem Iesu Christi.

12 For neither did I receive it of man, nor did I learn it; but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

13 Audístis enim conversatiónem meam aliquándo in Iudaísmo: quóniam supra modum persequébar Ecclésiam Dei, et expugnábam illam,

13 For you have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion: how that, beyond measure, I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it.

14 Et proficiébam in Iudaísmo supra multos coætáneos meos in génere meo, abundántius æmulátor exístens paternárum meárum traditiónum.

14 And I made progress in the Jews' religion above many of my equals in my own nation, being more abundantly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. A dextris est mihi Dóminus, ne commóvear:

℟. The Lord is at my right hand, I shall never be moved.

* Propter hoc dilatátum est cor meum, et exsultávit lingua mea.

* Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoiceth.

℣. Dóminus pars hereditátis meæ, et cálicis mei.

℣. The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance, and of my cup.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 8:1-13

Matt 8:1-13

In illo témpore: Cum descendísset Iesus de monte, secútæ sunt eum turbæ multæ: et ecce leprósus véniens, adorábat eum. Et réliqua.

At that time, when Jesus was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him: And behold a leper came and adored him. And so on.

Homilía sancti Hierónymi Presbýteri

Homily by St. Jerome, Priest at Bethlehem.

Liber 1 Comment. in cap. 8 Matth.

Bk. i, Comm. on Matth. viii

De monte Dómino descendénte, occúrrunt turbæ, quia ad altióra ascéndere non valuérunt. Et primus ei occúrrit leprósus: necdum enim póterat cum lepra tam multíplicem in monte Salvatóris audíre sermónem. Et notándum, quod hic primus speciáliter curátus sit: secúndo, puer centuriónis: tértio, socrus Petri fébriens in Caphárnaum: quarto loco, qui obláti sunt ei a dæmónio vexáti: quorum spíritus verbo eiciébat, quando et omnes male habéntes curávit.

When the Lord was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him. They were not able to follow Him when He went up. And first there came a leper. This poor creature's disease had prevented him from hearing the Saviour's long sermon on the Mount. Let it be noted that he is the first person specially named as being healed. The second was the Centurion's servant; the third was Peter's wife's mother, who was sick of a fever at Capernaum; the fourth were they who were brought unto Christ as being troubled with evil spirits, from whom He by His word cast out the evil spirits, at the same time that He healed all that were sick.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Ætérne rerum Cónditor,

Maker of all, eternal King,

Noctem diémque qui regis,

Who day and night about dost bring:

Et témporum das témpora,

Who weary mortals to relieve,

Ut álleves fastídium.

Dost in their times the seasons give:

Noctúrna lux viántibus

Now the shrill cock proclaims the day,

A nocte noctem ségregans,

And calls the sun’s awak’ning ray

Præco diéi iam sonat,

The wand’ring pilgrim’s guiding light,

Iubárque solis évocat.

That marks the watches night by night.

Hoc excitátus Lúcifer

Roused at the note, the morning star

Solvit polum calígine:

Heaven’s dusky veil uplifts afar:

Hoc omnis errónum cohors

Night’s vagrant bands no longer roam,

Viam nocéndi déserit.

But from their dark ways hie them home.

Hoc nauta vires cólligit,

The encouraged sailor’s fears are o’er,

Et somnoléntos íncrepat,

Bestirs who still in sleep would lie,

Gallus negántes árguit.

And shames who would their Lord deny.

Gallo canénte, spes redit,

New hope his clarion-note awakes,

Ægris salus refúnditur,

Sickness the feeble frame forsakes,

Mucro latrónis cónditur,

The robber sheathes his lawless sword,

Lapsis fides revértitur.

Faith to the fallen is restored.

Iesu, labántes réspice,

Look on us, Jesu, when we fall,

Et nos vidéndo córrige:

And with thy look our souls recall:

Si réspicis, labes cadunt,

If thou but look, our sins are gone,

Fletúque culpa sólvitur.

And with due tears our pardon won.

Tu, lux, refúlge sénsibus,

Shed through our hearts thy piercing ray,

De Epístola ad Gálatas

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Galatians

Gal 3:1-6

Gal 3:1-6

1 O insensáti Gálatæ, quis vos fascinávit non obedíre veritáti, ante quorum óculos Iesus Christus præscríptus est, in vobis crucifíxus?

1 O senseless Galatians, who hath bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been set forth, crucified among you?

2 Hoc solum a vobis volo díscere: ex opéribus legis Spíritum accepístis, an ex audítu fídei?

2 This only would I learn of you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

3 Sic stulti estis, ut cum Spíritu cœpéritis, nunc carne consummémini?

3 Are you so foolish, that, whereas you began in the Spirit, you would now be made perfect by the flesh?

4 Tanta passi estis sine causa? si tamen sine causa.

4 Have you suffered so great things in vain? If it be yet in vain.

5 Qui ergo tríbuit vobis Spíritum, et operátur virtútes in vobis: ex opéribus legis, an ex audítu fídei?

5 He therefore who giveth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you; doth he do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of the faith?

6 Sicut scriptum est: Abraham crédidit Deo, et reputátum est illi ad iustítiam:

6 As it is written: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

* Quam abscondísti timéntibus te!

* Which Thou hast laid up for them that fear thee!

℣. Et perfecísti eis qui sperant in te, Dómine, in conspéctu filiórum hóminum.

℣. Which Thou, O Lord, hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!

℟. Quam abscondísti timéntibus te!

Gal 3:7-10

Gal 3:7-10

7 Cognóscite ergo quia qui ex fide sunt, ii sunt fílii Abrahæ.

7 Know ye therefore, that they who are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

8 Próvidens autem Scriptúra quia ex fide iustíficat gentes Deus, prænuntiávit Abrahæ: Quia benedicéntur in te omnes gentes.

8 And the scripture, foreseeing, that God justifieth the Gentiles by faith, told unto Abraham before: In thee shall all nations be blessed.

9 Igitur qui ex fide sunt, benedicéntur cum fidéli Abraham.

9 Therefore they that are of faith, shall be blessed with faithful Abraham.

10 Quicúmque enim ex opéribus legis sunt, sub maledícto sunt. Scriptum est enim: Maledíctus omnis qui non permánserit in ómnibus quæ scripta sunt in libro legis ut fáciat ea.

10 For as many as are of the works of the law, are under a curse. For it is written: Cursed is every one, that abideth not in all things, which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Gal 3:11-14

Gal 3:11-14

11 Quóniam autem in lege nemo iustificátur apud Deum, maniféstum est: quia iustus ex fide vivit.

11 But that in the law no man is justified with God, it is manifest: because the just man liveth by faith.

12 Lex autem non est ex fide, sed: Qui fécerit ea, vivet in illis.

12 But the law is not of faith: but, He that doth those things, shall live in them.

13 Christus nos redémit de maledícto legis, factus pro nobis maledíctum: quia scriptum est: Maledíctus omnis qui pendet in ligno:

13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written: Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

14 Ut in géntibus benedíctio Abrahæ fíeret in Christo Iesu, ut pollicitatiónem Spíritus accipiámus per fidem.

14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus: that we may receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.

Raymúndus Barcinonénsis, ex nóbili família de Péñafort, Bonóniæ pietátis offíciis ac pontifício civilíque iuri sédulo incúmbens ac doctóris láurea insignítus, ibídem sacros cánones magna cum laude est interpretátus. Mox Barcinonénsis ecclésiæ canonicátu et præpositúra ab antístite Berengário ornátus, virtúte, doctrína et morum suavitáte præfúlsit, ac Deíparæ Vírginis cultum pro víribus auxit. Annum agens quadragésimum quintum inter fratres Prædicatóres adscítus, auctor fuit, ut sanctus Petrus Noláscus (cuius ipse confessiónes audiébat) una cum Iacóbo primo Aragóniæ rege, órdinem beátæ Maríæ de mercéde redemptiónis captivórum fundáverit, cui ipse Raymúndus probatíssimas vivéndi leges præscrípsit. Iussu Gregórii noni Romæ summórum Pontíficum decréta in unum Decretálium volúmen redégit. Tarraconénsi archiepiscopátu constantíssime recusáto, et magistério generáli órdinis Prædicatórum, quod per biénnium sanctíssime administráverat, dimísso, prope centenárius obdormívit in Dómino, anno salútis millésimo ducentésimo septuagésimo quinto. Quem Clemens octávus in Sanctórum númerum rétulit.

Raymond of Barcelona, of the noble family of Pennafort, zealously applied himself at Bologna to works of charity and to the study of ecclesiastical and civil law. When he had received his doctorate, he taught there, gaining great praise for interpreting the sacred canons. Soon Bishop Berengarius honoured him with the offices of canon and provost of the church of Barcelona, and he gave a shining example by his virtue, teaching and gentle ways, also striving with all his power to promote the cult of the Virgin Mother of God. At the age of forty-five, he was professed in the Order of Friars Preachers. It was at his instigation that St. Peter Nolasco, who was his penitent, together with James I, King of Aragon, founded the Order of Our Lady of Mercy for the Redemption of Captives, and Raymond himself drew up admirable rules for its way of life. At the command of Gregory IX, he was summoned to Rome to collect the decrees of the various popes into one volume, called the Decretals. He consistently refused the archbishopric of Tarragona, and he resigned the office of master general of the Order of Preachers after exercising it in a most holy manner for two years. He was nearly an hundred years old when he fell asleep in the Lord in 1275. Clement VIII enrolled his name among those of the Saints.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

De Epístola ad Gálatas

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Galatians

Gal 5:1-5

Gal 5:1-5

1 State, et nolíte íterum iugo servitútis continéri.

1 Stand fast, and be not held again under the yoke of bondage.

2 Ecce ego Paulus dico vobis: quóniam si circumcidámini, Christus vobis nihil próderit.

2 Behold, I Paul tell you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

3 Testíficor autem rursus omni hómini circumcidénti se, quóniam débitor est univérsæ legis faciéndæ.

3 And I testify again to every man circumcising himself, that he is a debtor to the whole law.

4 Evacuáti estis a Christo, qui in lege iustificámini: a grátia excidístis.

4 You are made void of Christ, you who are justified in the law: you are fallen from grace.

5 Nos enim spíritu ex fide, spem iustítiæ exspectámus.

5 For we in spirit, by faith, wait for the hope of justice.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Auribus pércipe, Deus, lácrimas meas: ne síleas a me, remítte mihi:

℟. O God, give ear unto my tears; hold not thy peace, but, O, spare me!

* Quóniam íncola ego sum apud te, et peregrínus.

* For I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner.

℣. Compláceat tibi, ut erípias me: Dómine, ad adiuvándum me festína.

Gal 5:6-10

Gal 5:6-10

6 Nam in Christo Iesu neque circumcísio áliquid valet, neque præpútium: sed fides, quæ per caritátem operátur.

6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision: but faith that worketh by charity.

7 Currebátis bene: quis vos impedívit veritáti non obedíre?

7 You did run well, who hath hindered you, that you should not obey the truth?

8 Persuásio hæc non est ex eo, qui vocat vos.

8 This persuasion is not from him that calleth you.

9 Módicum ferméntum totam massam corrúmpit.

9 A little leaven corrupteth the whole lump.

10 Ego confído in vobis in Dómino, quod nihil áliud sapiétis: qui autem contúrbat vos, portábit iudícium, quicúmque est ille.

10 I have confidence in you in the Lord: that you will not be of another mind: but he that troubleth you, shall bear the judgment, whosoever he be.

Gal 5:11-17

Gal 5:11-17

11 Ego autem, fratres, si circumcisiónem adhuc prǽdico: quid adhuc persecutiónem pátior? ergo evacuátum est scándalum crucis.

11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? Then is the scandal of the cross made void.

12 Utinam et abscindántur qui vos contúrbant.

12 I would they were even cut off, who trouble you.

13 Vos enim in libertátem vocáti estis, fratres: tantum ne libertátem in occasiónem detis carnis, sed per caritátem Spíritus servíte ínvicem.

13 For you, brethren, have been called unto liberty: only make not liberty an occasion to the flesh, but by charity of the spirit serve one another.

14 Omnis enim lex in uno sermóne implétur: Díliges próximum tuum sicut teípsum.

14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

15 Quod si ínvicem mordétis, et coméditis: vidéte ne ab ínvicem consumámini.

15 But if you bite and devour one another; take heed you be not consumed one of another.

16 Dico autem: Spíritu ambuláte, et desidéria carnis non perficiétis.

16 I say then, walk in the spirit, and you shall not fulfil the lusts of the flesh.

17 Caro enim concupíscit advérsus spíritum, spíritus autem advérsus carnem: hæc enim sibi ínvicem adversántur, ut non quæcúmque vultis, illa faciátis.

17 For the flesh lusteth against the spirit: and the spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary one to another: so that you do not the things that you would.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Timótheus, Lystris in Lycaónia natus ex patre gentíli et matre iudǽa, christiánam colébat religiónem, cum in ea loca venit Paulus Apóstolus. Qui fama commótus, quæ de Timóthei sanctitáte percrebúerat, ipsum adhíbuit sócium suæ peregrinatiónis: sed propter Iudǽos qui se ad Christum convérterant, sciéntes Timóthei patrem esse gentílem, eum circumcídit. Cum ígitur ambo Ephesum veníssent, ibi ordinátus est epíscopus ab Apóstolo, ut eam ecclésiam gubernáret. Ad quem Apóstolus duas epístolas scripsit, álteram Laodicéa, álteram Roma. Quibus in pastorális offícii cura confirmátus, cum sacrifícium, quod uni Deo debétur fíeri dǽmonum simulácris, ferre non posset; pópulum Ephesínum, Diánæ in eius celebritáte immolántem, ab illa impietáte removére conátus, lapídibus óbrutus est; ac pene mórtuus, a Christiánis eréptus et in montem óppido vicínum delátus, nono caléndas februárii obdormívit in Dómino.

Timothy was born in Lystra in Lycaonia of a gentile father and a Jewish mother, and was a follower of the Christian religion when the Apostle Paul visited that city. Paul was so moved by what he repeatedly heard of Timothy's holiness that he took him with him as a companion on his journeys; yet, because of the Jews who had been converted to Christ and who knew that Timothy's father had been a Gentile, he had him circumcised. When they both arrived at Ephesus, the Apostle ordained him bishop to govern the Church there. The Apostle wrote him two letters, one from Laodicea, the other from Rome. Strengthened by these letters in the ministry of his pastoral office, he could not endure that the sacrifice which is due to God alone should be offered to the images of demons, and he strove to win over the people of Ephesus from the impiety of offering sacrifice to Diana on her feast day. He was stoned, and was nearly dead when the Christians rescued him and took him to a village on a neighboring mountain. There he died in the Lord on January 24.

De Actibus Apostolórum

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Act 9:1-5

Acts 9:1-5

1 Saulus autem adhuc spirans minárum et cædis in discípulos Dómini, accéssit ad príncipem sacerdótum,

1 And Saul, as yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,

2 Et pétiit ab eo epístolas in Damáscum ad synagógas: ut si quos invenísset huius viæ viros ac mulíeres, vinctos perdúceret in Ierúsalem.

2 And asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and women of this way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

3 Et cum iter fáceret, cóntigit ut appropinquáret Damásco: et súbito circumfúlsit eum lux de cælo.

3 And as he went on his journey, it came to pass that he drew nigh to Damascus; and suddenly a light from heaven shined round about him.

4 Et cadens in terram audívit vocem dicéntem sibi: Saule, Saule, quid me perséqueris?

4 And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

5 Qui dixit: Quis es, dómine? Et ille: Ego sum Iesus, quem tu perséqueris: durum est tibi contra stímulum calcitráre.

5 Who said: Who art thou, Lord? And he: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kick against the goad.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Qui operátus est Petro in apostolátum, operátus est et mihi inter gentes:

℟. He That wrought effectually in Peter to the Apostleship, the Same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles,

* Et cognovérunt grátiam Dei, quæ data est mihi.

* And they perceived the grace that was given unto me of the Lord Christ.

℣. Grátia Dei in me vácua non fuit, sed grátia eius semper in me manet.

℣. The grace of God which was bestowed upon me was not in vain, but His grace abideth ever in me.

℟. Et cognovérunt grátiam Dei, quæ data est mihi.

6 Et tremens ac stupens dixit: Dómine, quid me vis fácere?

6 And he trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?

7 Et Dóminus ad eum: Surge, et ingrédere civitátem, et ibi dicétur tibi quid te opórteat fácere. Viri autem illi qui comitabántur cum eo, stabant stupefácti, audiéntes quidem vocem, néminem autem vidéntes.

7 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the city, and there it shall be told thee what thou must do. Now the men who went in company with him, stood amazed, hearing indeed a voice, but seeing no man.

8 Surréxit autem Saulus de terra, apertísque óculis nihil vidébat. Ad manus autem illum trahéntes, introduxérunt Damáscum.

8 And Saul arose from the ground; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. But they leading him by the hands, brought him to Damascus.

10 Erat autem quidam discípulus Damásci, nómine Ananías: et dixit ad illum in visu Dóminus: Ananía. At ille ait: Ecce ego, Dómine.

10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision: Ananias. And he said: Behold I am here, Lord.

11 Et Dóminus ad eum: Surge, et vade in vicum qui vocátur Rectus: et quære in domo Iudæ Saulum nómine Tarsénsem: ecce enim orat.

11 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the street that is called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas, one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold he prayeth.

12 (Et vidit virum Ananíam nómine, introeúntem, et imponéntem sibi manus ut visum recípiat.)

12 And he saw a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.

13 Respóndit autem Ananías: Dómine, audívi a multis de viro hoc, quanta mala fécerit sanctis tuis in Ierúsalem:

13 But Ananias answered: Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints in Jerusalem.

14 Et hic habet potestátem a princípibus sacerdótum alligándi omnes qui ínvocant nomen tuum.

14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that invoke thy name.

15 Dixit autem ad eum Dóminus: Vade, quóniam vas electiónis est mihi iste, ut portet nomen meum coram géntibus, et régibus, et fíliis Israël.

15 And the Lord said to him: Go thy way; for this man is to me a vessel of election, to carry my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.

Saulus autem adhuc spirans minárum et cædis in discípulos Dómini, accéssit ad príncipem sacerdótum, et pétiit ab eo epístolas in Damáscum ad synagógas: ut si quos invenísset huius viæ viros ac mulíeres, vinctos perdúceret in Ierúsalem.

And Saul, as yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest, and asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and women of this way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

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.

Ex libro sancti Hierónymi Presbýteri de Scriptóribus ecclesiásticis

From the Book on Ecclesiastical Writers, composed by St. Jerome, Priest at Bethlehem.

Cap. 17

Chapter 17

Polycárpus, Ioánnis Apóstoli discípulus et ab eo Smyrnæ epíscopus ordinátus, totíus Asiæ princeps fuit, quippe qui nonnúllos Apostolórum et eórum qui víderant Dóminum, magístros habúerit et víderit. Hic propter quasdam super die Paschæ quæstiónes, sub imperatóre Antoníno Pio, Ecclésiam in Urbe regénte Anicéto, Romam venit; ubi plúrimos credéntium, Marciónis et Valentíni persuasióne decéptos, redúxit ad fidem. Cumque ei fortúito óbviam fuísset Márcion et díceret: Cognóscis nos? respóndit: Cognósco primogénitum diáboli. Póstea vero, regnánte Marco Antoníno et Lúcio Aurélio Cómmodo, quarta post Nerónem persecutióne, Smyrnæ, sedénte procónsule et univérso pópulo in amphitheátro advérsus eum personánte, igni tráditus est. Scripsit ad Philippénses valde útilem epístolam, quæ usque hódie in Asiæ convéntu légitur.

Polycarp was a disciple of the Apostle John, and was consecrated by him Bishop of Smyrna. He was reckoned the chief of all the Christians of Asia, because he had been taught by several of the Apostles, and other persons who had seen the Lord. During the reign of the Emperor Antoninus Pius, and while Anicetus presided over the Church of Rome, Polycarp came thither to discuss some questions regarding the time for observing Easter. He found some heretics at Rome, who had been led astray by the doctrine of Marcion and Valentine, and brought back many of them to the faith. One day Marcion met him by accident, and said to him: Do you recognise me? whereto he replied: I recognise the devil's eldest son. Some time after, in the reign of Mark Antonine and Lucius Aurelius Commodus, during the fourth persecution since Nero, when the Pro-consul was ruling in Smyrna, the whole population being assembled in the theatre, clamoured against Polycarp, and to please them he was burnt. He wrote an extremely useful Epistle to the Philippians, which is publicly read in the Churches of Asia even to this day.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

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

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.

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.

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Ephesians

Eph 5:1-4

Eph 5:1-4

1 Estóte ergo imitatóres Dei, sicut fílii caríssimi,

1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as most dear children;

2 Et ambuláte in dilectióne, sicut et Christus diléxit nos, et trádidit semetípsum pro nobis, oblatiónem et hóstiam Deo in odórem suavitátis.

2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.

3 Fornicátio autem, et omnis immundítia, aut avarítia, nec nominétur in vobis, sicut decet sanctos:

3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not so much as be named among you, as becometh saints:

4 Aut turpitúdo, aut stultilóquium, aut scurrílitas, quæ ad rem non pértinet: sed magis gratiárum áctio.

4 Or obscenity, or foolish talking, or scurrility, which is to no purpose; but rather giving of thanks.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Confitébor tibi, Dómine Deus, in toto corde meo, et honorificábo nomen tuum in ætérnum:

* Quia misericórdia tua, Dómine, magna est super me.

* For great is thy mercy, O Lord, toward me.

℣. Deus meus es tu, et confitébor tibi: Deus meus es tu, et exaltábo te.

Eph 5:5-8

Eph 5:5-8

5 Hoc enim scitóte intellegéntes: quod omnis fornicátor, aut immúndus, aut avárus, quod est idolórum sérvitus, non habet hereditátem in regno Christi et Dei.

5 For know you this and understand, that no fornicator, or unclean, or covetous person (which is a serving of idols), hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

6 Nemo vos sedúcat inánibus verbis: propter hæc enim venit ira Dei in fílios diffidéntiæ.

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words. For because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the children of unbelief.

7 Nolíte ergo éffici partícipes eórum.

7 Be ye not therefore partakers with them.

8 Erátis enim aliquándo ténebræ: nunc autem lux in Dómino. Ut fílii lucis ambuláte:

8 For you were heretofore darkness, but now light in the Lord. Walk then as children of the light.

Eph 5:9-14

Eph 5:9-14

9 Fructus enim lucis est in omni bonitáte, et iustítia, et veritáte:

9 For the fruit of the light is in all goodness, and justice, and truth;

10 Probántes quid sit beneplácitum Deo:

10 Proving what is well pleasing to God:

11 Et nolíte communicáre opéribus infructuósis tenebrárum, magis autem redargúite.

11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

Ioánnes Antiochénus, propter áureum eloquéntiæ flumen cognoménto Chrysóstomus, présbyter Antiochénæ ecclésiæ factus, mórtuo Nectário, Arcádii imperatóris ópera, invítus Constantinopolitánæ ecclésiæ præfícitur. Quo in múnere, cum depravátos mores et nobílium hóminum vivéndi licéntiam veheméntius obiurgáret, magnam multórum súbiit invídiam. Apud Eudóxiam étiam, quod eam propter Callítropæ víduæ pecúniam, et altérius víduæ agrum reprehendísset, gráviter offéndit. Quare exsuláre cógitur, víduis et egéntibus ómnibus commúnis paréntis eiectiónem lugéntibus. Incredíbile dictu est, quanta mala in exsílio perpéssus sit, et quam multos ad Iesu Christi fidem convérterit. Multitúdinem, pietátem ac splendórem conciónum ceterorúmque eius scriptórum, omnes admirántur. Animam Deo réddidit décimo octávo kaléndas octóbris, eiúsque corpus in basílica Vaticána cónditum est. Hunc præclárum totíus Ecclésiæ Doctórem Pius Papa décimus cæléstem prædicatórum patrónum constítuit.

John came from Antioch and was called “Chrysostom” because of the golden flood of his eloquence. Ordained a priest of the Church of Antioch, he was later, against his will made archbishop of Constantinople to succeed Nectarius, through the influence of Arcadius the emperor. In this office, since he spoke out strongly against the degradation of public morals and the licentious lives of the nobility, he drew down on himself the hatred of many persons. He gravely offended Empress Eudoxia also, because he reprehended her for taking the money of the widow Callitropa and the land of another widow. For all these reasons he was forced into exile, while all the widows and the needy mourned at being deprived of their common father. It is beyond belief how many hardships he suffered in his exile and how many people he converted to the faith of Jesus Christ. The number, warmth and brilliance of his sermons and other writings are universally admired. He gave up his soul to God on September 14, and his body was buried in the Vatican basilica. This outstanding Doctor of the universal Church was appointed the heavenly patron of preachers by Pope Pius X.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Peter Nolasco, born of a noble family at Recaudun near Carcassonne in France, was bereaved of his parents in his youth. Loathing the heresy of the Albigenses, he divided his patrimony and went to Spain. There, as he was praying one night, the Blessed Virgin appeared to him and suggested that it would be most pleasing to her Son and to herself to have a religious order founded for the purpose of freeing those taken captive in the power of unbelievers. And so, together with St. Raymond of Pennafort and James I, king of Aragon, who had been told the same thing by the Mother of God on the very same night, he established the Order of Our Lady of Mercy for the redemption of captives, the members taking a fourth vow to remain as hostages in the power of pagans if this were needed to free Christians. He was often cheered by apparitions of his guardian Angel and of the Virgin Mother of God; and when he had attained a good old age, he died a holy death in the middle of the night of the Vigil of Christmas, in the year 1256.

8 Testis enim mihi est Deus, quómodo cúpiam omnes vos in viscéribus Iesu Christi.

Who weary mortals to relieve,

Ut álleves fastídium.

Dost in their times the seasons give:

Noctúrna lux viántibus

Now the shrill cock proclaims the day,

A nocte noctem ségregans,

And calls the sun’s awak’ning ray

Præco diéi iam sonat,

The wand’ring pilgrim’s guiding light,

Iubárque solis évocat.

That marks the watches night by night.

Ægris salus refúnditur,

Sickness the feeble frame forsakes,

Mucro latrónis cónditur,

The robber sheathes his lawless sword,

Lapsis fides revértitur.

Faith to the fallen is restored.

Iesu, labántes réspice,

Look on us, Jesu, when we fall,

Et nos vidéndo córrige:

And with thy look our souls recall:

Si réspicis, labes cadunt,

If thou but look, our sins are gone,

At Antioch, the blessed martyr Hippolytus, (third century.) He was a Priest who had been led astray into the Novatian schism, but by the operation of the grace of Christ had corrected himself, and had returned into the unity of the Church, for which and within which he afterwards achieved a noble martyrdom. When he was asked by his people which were the true Body, he denied the doctrine of Novatus, and declared that the faith which men ought to keep is the faith which the See of Peter keepeth, and so offered his neck to the executioner.

Antiochíæ pássio beáti Hippólyti Presbýteri, qui, decéptus aliquándiu schísmate Nováti, sed, operánte grátia Christi, corréctus, ad unitátem Ecclésiæ rédiit, pro qua et in qua póstea illústre martýrium consummávit.

At Jerusalem, holy Matthias, Patriarch of that place, (in the second century,) of whom are narrated wondrous acts of faith. He suffered much for Christ's sake under the Emperor Hadrian, but at length fell asleep in peace.

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.

Martína virgo Romána, illústri génere nata, téneris adhuc annis orbáta paréntibus, ingéntes divítias lárgiter in páuperes distríbuit. Sub Alexándro príncipe iussa inánibus diis sacrificáre, immáne fácinus detestátur. Quare divérsis tormentórum genéribus cruciáta, demum in amphitheátro damnátur ad béstias; a quibus illǽsa divínitus evádens, in ardéntem rogum iniécta, incólumis páriter servátur. Nonnúlli ex eius tortóribus, capti novitáte miráculi, Christi fidem amplecténtes, palmam martýrii adépti sunt. Précibus Martínæ multa Deus prodígia patrávit, quibus iudex ácriter permótus et Vírginis constántiam demirátus, caput eídem amputári præcépit, sedénte sancto Urbáno Papa primo. Martínæ corpus, Urbáno octávo Pontífice máximo, in vetústa eiúsdem ecclésia ad Mamertínum cárcerem, cum sanctórum Mártyrum Concórdii, Epiphánii et Sociórum corpóribus repértum, eódem loco, decéntius ornáto, totíus Urbis lætítia solémniter repósitum fuit.

Martina, a Roman virgin of an illustrious family, lost her parents while she was still young and distributed her vast fortune lavishly to the poor. Under the emperor Alexander, she was commanded to sacrifice to the imaginary gods, and refused to commit this great crime. First she was subjected to many kinds of tortures and, finally condemned to the beasts in the amphitheater, was left unharmed by divine protection. Then she was thrown into a burning furnace, and again was preserved safe. Some of her tormentors moved by this unheard-of miracle embraced the faith of Christ and received the crown of martyrdom. At Martina's prayers, God worked many marvels. Angered by these and confounded by the Virgin's constancy, the judge ordered her beheaded. All this took place when St. Urban I was pope. Under Urban VIII, her body was found in the old church named after her at the Mamertine Prison together with the bodies of the holy Martyrs Concordius, Epiphanius and their companions. When the place had been renovated and decorated, her body was solemnly reburied, amid the rejoicing of the whole City.

Ioánnes Bosco, húmili loco natus, post ærumnósam innocentissimámque puerítiam, stúdiis Chérii óperam dedit, quo quidem témpore ingénii et virtútum laude enítuit. Sacérdos creátus, Augústam Taurinórum pétiit, ubi ómnibus ómnia factus est; sed præsértim in adolescéntulos eósque páuperes ac derelíctos adiuvándos curam impéndit. Liberálibus disciplínis, opifícum scholis, festórum diérum ascetériis a venenátis errórum vitiorúmque pábulis puerílem ætátem removére omni ope stúduit: quam ad rem duas in Ecclésia virórum virginúmque famílias excitávit. Plúrimos ipse édidit libros christiána sapiéntia refértos. De ætérna étiam infidélium salúte per sacras suórum sodálium expeditiónes óptime méruit. Mente in Deum constánter erécta, nullis homo sanctíssimus, nec minis terréri, nec labóribus fatigári, nec curis ópprimi, nec rebus advérsis perturbári videbátur. Obiit anno salútis millésimo octingentésimo octogésimo octávo, ætátis septuagésimo tértio. A Pio undécimo, Pontífice máximo, in Sanctórum númerum relátus est.

The childhood of Don Bosco, who was born in a small village was marked both by its hardship and by his happy innocence of soul. He studied at Chieri, where in a short time he earned great praise for his brilliance and his virtue. Ordained priest, he went to Turin, where he made himself all things to all men, and undertook in particular the work of aiding poor and neglected boys. By providing them with teaching in the liberal arts and in trades and keeping them occupied on holidays, he strove with all his might to remove young people from poisonous sources of delinquency and vice. For this purpose, he established two congregations in the Church, one for men and one for women religious. He himself published many books filled with Christian wisdom. He also accomplished great things for the eternal salvation of unbelievers through the missionary enterprises of his congregations. With his mind constantly raised to God, this holy man never seemed to be terrified by threats, worn out by labors, oppressed by cares, or disturbed by adversities. He died in the year of salvation 1888 at the age of seventy-three, and was numbered among the Saints by Pope Pius XI.
