First Reading1 John 2:3-11

From the First Letter of John

3This is how we know that we know him:if we keep his commandments.4One who says, “I know him,”and doesn’t keep his commandments,is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him.5But God’s love has most certainly been perfected in whoever keeps his word.This is how we know that we are in him:6he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.

7Brothers, I write no new commandment to you,but an old commandment which you had from the beginning.The old commandment is the wordwhich you heard from the beginning.8Again, I write a new commandment to you,which is true in him and in you,because the darkness is passing awayand the true light already shines.9He who says he is in the lightand hates his brother is in the darkness even until now.10He who loves his brother remains in the light,and there is no occasion for stumbling in him.11But he who hates his brother is in the darkness,and walks in the darkness,and doesn’t know where he is going,because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 96:1-2a, 2b-3, 5b-6

1Sing to the Lord a new song!Sing to the Lord, all the earth.2Sing to the Lord!

2Bless his name!Proclaim his salvation from day to day!3Declare his glory among the nations,his marvelous works among all the peoples.

5For all the gods of the peoples are idols,but the Lord made the heavens.6Honor and majesty are before him.Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

GospelLuke 2:22-35

From the Gospel according to Luke

22When the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled,they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord23(as it is written in the law of the Lord,“Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”),24and to offer a sacrifice according to thatwhich is said in the law of the Lord,“A pair of turtledoves,or two young pigeons.”

25Behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon.This man was righteous and devout,looking for the consolation of Israel,and the Holy Spirit was on him.26It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spiritthat he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.27He came in the Spirit into the temple.When the parents brought in the child,Jesus, that they might do concerning him according to the custom of the law,28then he received him into his armsand blessed God, and said,

29“Now you are releasing your servant, Master,according to your word, in peace;30for my eyes have seen your salvation,31which you have prepared before the face of all peoples;32a light for revelation to the nations,and the glory of your people Israel.”

33Joseph and his mother were marveling at the thingswhich were spoken concerning him.34Simeon blessed them,and said to Mary, his mother,“Behold, this child is appointed for the fallingand the rising of many in Israel,and for a sign which is spoken against.35Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul,that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

Tit 3:4-7

Caríssime: Appáruit benígnitas et humánitas Salvatóris nostri Dei: non ex opéribus justítiæ, quæ fécimus nos, sed secúndum suam misericórdiam salvos nos fecit, per lavácrum regeneratiónis et renovatiónis Spíritus Sancti, quem effúdit in nos abúnde per Jesum Christum, Salvatórem nostrum: ut, justificáti grátia ipsíus, herédes simus secúndum spem vitæ ætérnæ: in Christo Jesu, Dómino nostro.

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

Titus 3:4-7

Dearly beloved: When the goodness and kindness of God our Saviour appeared, then not by reason of good works that we did ourselves, but according to His mercy, He saved us through the bath of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit; Whom He has abundantly poured out upon us through Jesus Christ our Saviour, in order that, justified by His grace, we may be heirs in the hope of life everlasting, in Christ Jesus our Lord.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 2:15-20

In illo témpore: Pastóres loquebántur ad ínvicem: Transeámus usque Béthlehem, et videámus hoc verbum, quod factum est, quod Dóminus osténdit nobis. Et venérunt festinántes, et invenérunt Maríam, et Joseph, et Infántem pósitum in præsépio. Vidéntes autem cognovérunt de verbo, quod dictum erat illis de Púero hoc. Et omnes, qui audiérunt, miráti sunt: et de his, quæ dicta erant a pastóribus ad ipsos. María autem conservábat ómnia verba hæc, cónferens in corde suo. Et revérsi sunt pastores, glorificántes et laudántes Deum in ómnibus, quæ audíerant et víderant, sicut dictum est ad illos.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 2:15-20

At that time, the shepherds were saying to one another, Let us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us. So they went with haste, and they found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in the manger. And when they had seen, they understood what had been told them concerning this Child. And all who heard marveled at the things told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept in mind all these things, pondering them in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen, even as it was spoken to them.

PrefacePrefatio

de Nativitate Domini

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Quia per incarnáti Verbi mystérium nova mentis nostræ óculis lux tuæ claritátis infúlsit: ut, dum visibíliter Deum cognóscimus, per hunc in invisibílium amorem rapiámur. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cæléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes.

Nativity

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, for through the Mystery of the Word made flesh, the new light of Thy glory hath shone upon the eyes of our mind, so that while we acknowledge God in visible form, we may through Him be drawn to the love of things invisible. And therefore with Angels and Archangels, with Throne and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
