First ReadingSirach 4:11-18

From the Book of Sirach

11Wisdom exalts her sons,and takes hold of those who seek her.12He who loves her loves life.Those who seek her early will be filled with gladness.13He who holds her fast will inherit glory.Where he enters, the Lord will bless.14Those who serve her minister to the Holy One.The Lord loves those who love her.15He who listens to her will judge the nations.He who heeds her will dwell securely.16If he trusts her, he will inherit her,and his generations will possess her.17For at the first she will walk with him in crooked ways,and will bring fear and dread upon him,and torment him with her discipline,until she may trust his soul, and try him by her judgments.18Then she will return him again to the straight way,and will gladden him, and reveal to him her secrets.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 113:1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8

1Praise the Lord!Praise, you servants of the Lord,praise the Lord’s name.2Blessed be the Lord’s name,from this time forward and forever more.

3From the rising of the sun to its going down,the Lord’s name is to be praised.4The Lord is high above all nations,his glory above the heavens.

5Who is like the Lord, our God,who has his seat on high,6who stoops down to see in heaven and on the earth?

7He raises up the poor out of the dust,and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,8that he may set him with princes,even with the princes of his people.

Second Reading1 Corinthians 1:18-25

From the First Letter of Paul to the Corinthians

18For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying,but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.19For it is written,

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise.I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.”

20Where is the wise?Where is the scribe?Where is the debater of this age?Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?21For seeing that in the wisdom of God,the world through its wisdom didn’t know God,it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.22For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,23but we preach Christ crucified,a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Greeks,24but to those who are called,both Jews and Greeks,Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;25because the foolishness of God is wiser than men,and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

GospelJohn 19:25-27

From the Gospel according to John

25But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother,his mother’s sister,Mary the wife of Clopas,and Mary Magdalene.26Therefore when Jesus saw his mother,and the disciple whom he loved standing there,he said to his mother,“Woman, behold, your son!”27Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!”From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Petri Apóstoli

1 Pet 5:1-4; 5:10-11

Caríssimi: Senióres, qui in vobis sunt, obsécro consénior et testis Christi passiónum, qui et ejus, quæ in futúro revelánda est, glóriæ communicátor: páscite qui in vobis est gregem Dei, providéntes non coácte, sed spontánee secúndum Deum, neque turpis lucri grátia, sed voluntárie; neque ut dominántes in cleris, sed forma facti gregis ex ánimo. Et, cum apparúerit princeps pastórum, percipiétis immarcescíbilem glóriæ corónam. Deus autem omnis grátiæ, qui vocávit nos in ætérnam suam glóriam in Christo Jesu, módicum passos ipse perfíciet, confirmábit solidabítque. Ipsi glória et impérium in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Lesson from the first letter of St Peter the Apostle

1 Pet 5:1-4; 5:10-11.

Dearly beloved brethren: The ancients therefore that are among you, I beseech, who am myself also an ancient, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ: as also a partaker of that glory which is to be revealed in time to come: Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking care of it, not by constraint, but willingly, according to God: not for filthy lucre's sake, but voluntarily: Neither as lording it over the clergy, but being made a pattern of the flock from the heart. And when the prince of pastors shall appear, you shall receive a never fading crown of glory. But the God of all grace, who hath called us into his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, will himself perfect you, and confirm you, and establish you. To him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 16:13-19

In illo témpore: Venit Jesus in partes Cæsaréæ Philíppi, et interrogábat discípulos suos, dicens: Quem dicunt hómines esse Fílium hóminis? At illi dixérunt: Alii Joánnem Baptístam, alii autem Elíam, álii vero Jeremíam, aut unum ex prophétis. Dicit illis Jesus: Vos autem quem me esse dícitis? Respóndens Simon Petrus, dixit: Tu es Christus, Fílius Dei vivi. Respóndens autem Jesus, dixit ei: Beátus es, Simon Bar Jona: quia caro et sanguis non revelávit tibi, sed Pater meus, qui in cœlis est. Et ego dico tibi, quia tu es Petrus, et super hanc petram ædificábo Ecclésiam meam, et portæ ínferi non prævalébunt advérsus eam. Et tibi dabo claves regni cœlórum. Et quodcúmque ligáveris super terram, erit ligátum et in cœlis: et quodcúmque sólveris super terram, erit solútum et in cœlis.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 16:13-19

In that time: Jesus came into the quarters of Caesarea Philippi: and he asked his disciples, saying: Whom do men say that the Son of man is? But they said: Some John the Baptist, and other some Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets. Jesus saith to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answering, said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.

PrefacePrefatio

de Ascensione Domini

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Qui post resurrectiónem suam ómnibus discípulis suis maniféstus appáruit et, ipsis cernéntibus, est elevátus in cælum, ut nos divinitátis suæ tribúeret esse partícipes. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:

Ascension

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: through Christ our Lord. Who, after His Resurrection, appeared openly to all His disciples, and, while they looked on, was taken up into heaven, that He might grant unto us to be sharers in His own divinity. And therefore, with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
