First ReadingHebrews 11:32-40

From the Letter to the Hebrews

32What more shall I say?For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon,Barak, Samson, Jephthah,David, Samuel, and the prophets—33who through faith subdued kingdoms,worked out righteousness,obtained promises,stopped the mouths of lions,34quenched the power of fire,escaped the edge of the sword,from weakness were made strong,grew mighty in war,and caused foreign armies to flee.35Women received their dead by resurrection.Others were tortured,not accepting their deliverance,that they might obtain a better resurrection.36Others were tried by mocking and scourging,yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.37They were stoned.They were sawn apart.They were tempted.They were slain with the sword.They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins;being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated—38of whom the world was not worthy—wandering in deserts,mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.

39These all, having been commended for their faith,didn’t receive the promise,40God having provided some better thing concerning us,so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 31:20-21a and 21bc, 22, 23, 24*

20Oh how great is your goodness,which you have laid up for those who fear you,which you have worked for those who take refuge in you,before the sons of men!21In the shelter of your presence you will hide them from the plotting of man.You will keep them secretly in a dwelling away from the strife of tongues.

22Praise be to the Lord,for he has shown me his marvelous loving kindness in a strong city.

23As for me, I said in my haste, “I am cut off from before your eyes.”Nevertheless you heard the voice of my petitions when I cried to you.

24Oh love the Lord, all you his saints!The Lord preserves the faithful,and fully recompenses him who behaves arrogantly.

GospelMark 5:1-20

From the Gospel according to Mark

1They came to the other side of the sea,into the country of the Gadarenes.2When he had come out of the boat,immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs.3He lived in the tombs.Nobody could bind him any more, not even with chains,4because he had been often bound with fetters and chains,and the chains had been torn apart by him,and the fetters broken in pieces.Nobody had the strength to tame him.5Always, night and day,in the tombs and in the mountains,he was crying out,and cutting himself with stones.6When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,7and crying out with a loud voice,he said, “What have I to do with you,Jesus, you Son of the Most High God?I adjure you by God, don’t torment me.”8For he said to him,“Come out of the man,you unclean spirit!”

9He asked him, “What is your name?”

He said to him, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”10He begged him muchthat he would not send them away out of the country.11Now on the mountainside there was a great herd of pigs feeding.12All the demons begged him,saying, “Send us into the pigs,that we may enter into them.”

13At once Jesus gave them permission.The unclean spirits came out and entered into the pigs.The herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea,and they were drowned in the sea.14Those who fed the pigs fled,and told it in the city and in the country.

The people came to see what it was that had happened.15They came to Jesus,and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting,clothed, and in his right mind,even him who had the legion;and they were afraid.16Those who saw it declared to them what happened to himwho was possessed by demons,and about the pigs.17They began to beg him to depart from their region.

18As he was entering into the boat,he who had been possessed by demons begged himthat he might be with him.19He didn’t allow him,but said to him, “Go to your house,to your friends,and tell them what great things the Lord has done for youand how he had mercy on you.”

20He went his way,and began to proclaim in Decapolis how Jesus had done great things for him,and everyone marveled.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Timótheum

2 Tim 4:1-8

Caríssime: Testíficor coram Deo, et Jesu Christo, qui judicatúrus est vivos et mórtuos, per advéntum ipsíus et regnum ejus: prǽdica verbum, insta opportúne, importune: árgue, óbsecra, íncrepa in omni patiéntia, et doctrína. Erit enim tempus, cum sanam doctrínam non sustinébunt, sed ad sua desidéria, coacervábunt sibi magistros, pruriéntes áuribus, et a veritáte quidem audítum avértent, ad fábulas autem converténtur. Tu vero vígila, in ómnibus labóra, opus fac Evangelístæ, ministérium tuum imple. Sóbrius esto. Ego enim jam delíbor, et tempus resolutiónis meæ instat. Bonum certámen certávi, cursum consummávi, fidem servávi. In réliquo repósita est mihi coróna justítiæ, quam reddet mihi Dóminus in illa die, justus judex: non solum autem mihi, sed et iis, qui díligunt advéntum ejus.

Lesson from the second letter of St Paul the Apostle to Timothy

2 Tim 4:1-8

Dearly beloved: I charge thee, before God and Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead, by his coming, and his kingdom: Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine. For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but, according to their own desires, they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears: And will indeed turn away their hearing from the truth, but will be turned unto fables. But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thy ministry. Be sober. For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 5:13-19

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Vos estis sal terræ. Quod si sal evanúerit, in quo saliétur? Ad níhilum valet ultra, nisi ut mittátur foras, et conculcétur ab homínibus. Vos estis lux mundi. ¶ Non potest cívitas abscóndi supra montem pósita. Neque accéndunt lucérnam, et ponunt eam sub módio, sed super candelábrum, ut lúceat ómnibus, qui in domo sunt. Sic luceat lux vestra coram homínibus, ut vídeant ópera vestra bona, et gloríficent Patrem vestrum, qui in cœlis est. Nolíte putáre, quóniam veni sólvere legem aut prophétas: non veni sólvere, sed adimplére. Amen, quippe dico vobis, donec tránseat cœlum et terra, jota unum aut unus apex non præteríbit a lege, donec ómnia fiant. Qui ergo sólverit unum de mandátis istis mínimis, et docúerit sic hómines, mínimus vocábitur in regno cœlórum: qui autem fécerit et docúerit, hic magnus vocábitur in regno cœlórum.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 5:13-19

In that time Jesus said to His disciples: You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men. You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house. So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled. He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But he that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

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.

Common

It is truly meet and just, and profitable unto salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, O Holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God, through Christ, our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominions adore it, the Powers are in awe. Which the heavens and the hosts of heaven together with the blessed Seraphim joyfully do magnify. And do Thou command that it be permitted us to join with them in confessing Thee, while we say with lowly praise:
