First ReadingPhilippians 1:18b-26

From the Letter of Paul to the Philippians

18What does it matter?Only that in every way,whether in pretense or in truth,Christ is proclaimed.I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.19For I know that this will turn out to my salvation through your prayersand the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,20according to my earnest expectation and hope,that I will in no way be disappointed,but with all boldness,as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body,whether by life or by death.21For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.22But if I live on in the flesh,this will bring fruit from my work;yet I don’t know what I will choose.23But I am hard pressed between the two,having the desire to depart and be with Christ,which is far better.24Yet to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.25Having this confidence,I know that I will remain,yes, and remain with you all for your progressand joy in the faith,26that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence with you again.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 42:2, 3, 5cdef

2As the deer pants for the water brooks,so my soul pants after you, God.

3My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.When shall I come and appear before God?

5These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me,how I used to go with the crowd, and led them to God’s house,with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day.

GospelLuke 14:1, 7-11

From the Gospel according to Luke

1When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread,they were watching him.

verses 2–6 are not read7He spoke a parable to those who were invited,when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,8“When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast,don’t sit in the best seat,since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,9and he who invited both of you would come and tell you,‘Make room for this person.’Then you would begin,with shame, to take the lowest place.10But when you are invited,go and sit in the lowest place,so that when he who invited you comes,he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’Then you will be honored in the presence of allwho sit at the table with you.11For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled,and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Eccli 24:14-16

Ab inítio et ante sǽcula creáta sum, et usque ad futúrum sǽculum non désinam, et in habitatióne sancta coram ipso ministrávi. Et sic in Sion firmáta sum, et in civitáte sanctificáta simíliter requiévi, et in Jerúsalem potéstas mea. Et radicávi in pópulo honorificáto, et in parte Dei mei heréditas illíus, et in plenitúdine sanctórum deténtio mea.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Ecclus 24:14-16

Before all ages, in the beginning, He created me, and through all ages I shall not cease to be. In the holy Tent I ministered before Him, and in Sion I fixed my abode. Thus in the chosen city He has given me rest, in Jerusalem is my domain. I have struck root among the glorious people, in the portion of my God, His heritage, and my abode is in the full assembly of Saints.

PrefacePrefatio

de Beata Maria Virgine

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Et te in veneratióne beátæ Maríæ semper Vírginis collaudáre, benedícere et prædicáre. Quæ et Unigénitum tuum Sancti Spíritus obumbratióne concépit: et, virginitátis glória permanénte, lumen ætérnum mundo effúdit, Jesum Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces ut admítti jubeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessióne dicéntes:

Blessed Virgin

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: and that we should praise and bless, and proclaim Thee, in the veneratióne of the Blessed Mary, ever-Virgin: Who also conceived Thine only-begotten Son by the overshadowing of the Holy Ghost, and the glory of her virginity still abiding, gave forth to the world the everlasting Light, Jesus Christ our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominations worship it, and the Powers stand in awe. The Heavens and the heavenly hosts together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it. Together with these we entreat Thee that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted while we say with lowly praise:

CommunionCommunio

Beáta víscera Maríæ Vírginis, quæ portavérunt ætérni Patris Fílium. (Allelúja.)

Per Dominum…

Having received the aids conducive to our salvation, O Lord, we beseech You, grant that we may everywhere be protected by the patronage of blessed Mary, ever Virgin, in veneration of whom we have made these offerings to Your Majesty.
