First ReadingIsaiah 2:1-5

From the Book of Isaiah

1This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

2It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains,and shall be raised above the hills;and all nations shall flow to it.3Many peoples shall go and say,“Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the Lord,to the house of the God of Jacob;and he will teach us of his ways,and we will walk in his paths.”For the law shall go out of Zion,and the Lord’s word from Jerusalem.4He will judge between the nations,and will decide concerning many peoples.They shall beat their swords into plowshares,and their spears into pruning hooks.Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,neither shall they learn war any more.5House of Jacob, come, and let’s walk in the light of the Lord.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 122:1-2, 3-4, 4-5, 6-7, 8-9

1I was glad when they said to me,“Let’s go to the Lord’s house!”2Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!

3Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,4where the tribes go up, even the Lord’s tribes,

4according to an ordinance for Israel,to give thanks to the Lord’s name.5For there are set thrones for judgment,the thrones of David’s house.

6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.Those who love you will prosper.7Peace be within your walls,and prosperity within your palaces.

8For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes,I will now say, “Peace be within you.”9For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,I will seek your good.

Second ReadingRomans 13:11-14

From the Letter of Paul to the Romans

11Do this, knowing the time,that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep,for salvation is now nearer to us thanwhen we first believed.12The night is far gone, and the day is near.Let’s therefore throw off the deeds of darkness,and let’s put on the armor of light.13Let’s walk properly, as in the day;not in reveling and drunkenness,not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts,and not in strife and jealousy.14But put on the Lord Jesus Christ,and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts.

GospelMatthew 24:37-44

From the Gospel according to Matthew

37As the days of Noah were,so will the coming of the Son of Man be.38For as in those dayswhich were before the flood they were eating and drinking,marrying and giving in marriage,until the day that Noah entered into the ship,39and they didn’t know until the flood cameand took them all away,so will the coming of the Son of Man be.40Then two men will be in the field:one will be taken and one will be left.41Two women will be grinding at the mill:one will be taken and one will be left.42Watch therefore, for you don’t know in what hour your Lord comes.43But know this,that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming,he would have watched,and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.44Therefore also be ready,for in an hour that you don’t expect,the Son of Man will come.

EpistleLectio

Lectio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Romános

Rom 13:11-14.

Fratres: Sciéntes, quia hora est jam nos de somno súrgere. Nunc enim própior est nostra salus, quam cum credídimus. Nox præcéssit, dies autem appropinquávit. Abjiciámus ergo ópera tenebrárum, et induámur arma lucis. Sicut in die honéste ambulémus: non in comessatiónibus et ebrietátibus, non in cubílibus et impudicítiis, non in contentióne et æmulatióne: sed induímini Dóminum Jesum Christum.

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

Rom 13:11-14

Brethren: Understand, for it is now the hour for us to rise from sleep, because now our salvation is nearer than when we came to believe. The night is far advanced; the day is at hand. Let us therefore lay aside the works of darkness, and put on the armor of light. Let us walk becomingly as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in debauchery and wantonness, not in strife and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secundum Lucam

Luc 21:25-33.

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Erunt signa in sole et luna et stellis, et in terris pressúra géntium præ confusióne sónitus maris et flúctuum: arescéntibus homínibus præ timóre et exspectatióne, quæ supervénient univérso orbi: nam virtútes cœlórum movebúntur. Et tunc vidébunt Fílium hóminis veniéntem in nube cum potestáte magna et majestáte. His autem fíeri incipiéntibus, respícite et leváte cápita vestra: quóniam appropínquat redémptio vestra. Et dixit illis similitúdinem: Vidéte ficúlneam et omnes árbores: cum prodúcunt jam ex se fructum, scitis, quóniam prope est æstas. Ita et vos, cum vidéritis hæc fíeri, scitóte, quóniam prope est regnum Dei. Amen, dico vobis, quia non præteríbit generátio hæc, donec ómnia fiant. Cœlum et terra transíbunt: verba autem mea non transíbunt.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 21:25-33

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples: There will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations bewildered by the roaring of sea and waves; men fainting for fear and for expectation of the things that are coming on the world; for the powers of heaven will be shaken. And then they will see the son of Man coming upon a cloud with great power and majesty. but when these things begin to come to pass, look up, and lift up your heads, because your redemption is at hand. And He spoke to them a parable. Behold the fig tree, and all the trees. When they now put forth their buds, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see these things coming to pass, know that the kingdom of God is near. Amen I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all things have been accomplished. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.

PrefacePrefatio

de sanctissima Trinitate

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Qui cum unigénito Fílio tuo et Spíritu Sancto unus es Deus, unus es Dóminus: non in uníus singularitáte persónæ, sed in uníus Trinitáte substántiæ. Quod enim de tua glória, revelánte te, crédimus, hoc de Fílio tuo, hoc de Spíritu Sancto sine differéntia discretiónis sentímus. Ut in confessióne veræ sempiternǽque Deitátis, et in persónis propríetas, et in esséntia únitas, et in majestáte adorétur æquálitas. Quam laudant Angeli atque Archángeli, Chérubim quoque ac Séraphim: qui non cessant clamáre cotídie, una voce dicéntes:

Holy Trinity

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God; Who, together with Thine only-begotten Son, and the Holy Ghost, art one God, one Lord: not in the oneness of a single Person, but in the Trinity of one substance. For what we believe by Thy revelation of Thy glory, the same do we believe of Thy Son, the same of the Holy Ghost, without difference or separation. So that in confessing the true and everlasting Godhead, distinction in persons, unity in essence, and equality in majesty may be adored. Which the Angels and Archangels, the Cherubim also and Seraphim do praise: who cease not daily to cry out, with one voice saying:

Ps 84:13.

Dóminus dabit benignitátem: et terra nostra dabit fructum suum.

The Lord will give His benefits: and our land shall yield its increase.

PostcommunionPostcommunio

Suscipiámus, Dómine, misericórdiam tuam in médio templi tui: ut reparatiónis nostræ ventúra sollémnia cóngruis honóribus præcedámus.

Per Dominum…

May we receive Your mercy, O Lord, in the midst of Your temple, and thus prepare with due observance for the coming festal season of our redemption.

Through our Lord…
