First ReadingActs 18:23-28

From the Acts of the Apostles

23Having spent some time there,he departed and went through the region of Galatia and Phrygia,in order, establishing all the disciples.24Now a certain Jew named Apollos,an Alexandrian by race,an eloquent man, came to Ephesus.He was mighty in the Scriptures.25This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord;and being fervent in spirit,he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus,although he knew only the baptism of John.26He began to speak boldly in the synagogue.But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him,they took him aside,and explained to him the way of God more accurately.

27When he had determined to pass over into Achaia,the brothers encouraged him;and wrote to the disciples to receive him.When he had come, he greatly helped thosewho had believed through grace;28for he powerfully refuted the Jews,publicly showing by the Scripturesthat Jesus was the Christ.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 47:2-3, 8-9, 10

2Oh clap your hands, all you nations.Shout to God with the voice of triumph!3For the Lord Most High is awesome.He is a great King over all the earth.

8For God is the King of all the earth.Sing praises with understanding.9God reigns over the nations.God sits on his holy throne.

10The princes of the peoples are gathered together,the people of the God of Abraham.For the shields of the earth belong to God.He is greatly exalted!

GospelJohn 16:23b-28

From the Gospel according to John

23“In that day you will ask me no questions.Most certainly I tell you,whatever you may ask of the Father in my name,he will give it to you.24Until now, you have asked nothing in my name.Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.

25“I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech.But the time is comingwhen I will no more speak to you in figures of speech,but will tell you plainly about the Father.26In that day you will ask in my name;and I don’t say to youthat I will pray to the Father for you,27for the Father himself loves you,because you have loved me,and have believed that I came from God.28I came from the Father and have come into the world.Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Sap 5:1-5

Stabunt justi in magna constántia advérsus eos, qui se angustiavérunt et qui abstulérunt labóres eórum. Vidéntes turbabúntur timore horríbili, et mirabúntur in subitatióne insperátæ salútis, dicéntes intra se, pœniténtiam agéntes, et præ angústia spíritus geméntes: Hi sunt, quos habúimus aliquándo in derísum et in similitúdinem impropérii. Nos insensáti vitam illórum æstimabámus insániam, et finem illórum sine honóre: ecce, quómodo computáti sunt inter fílios Dei, et inter Sanctos sors illórum est.

Lesson from the book of Wisdom

Wis. 5:1-5

The just shall stand with great assurance before their oppressors who set at nought their labors. Seeing this, these shall be shaken with dreadful fear, and amazed at the suddenness of the unlooked-for salvation. They shall say among themselves, rueful and groaning through anguish of spirit: These are they whom once we held as a laughingstock and as a type for mockery, fools that we were! Their life we deemed madness, and their death dishonored. See how they are accounted among the sons of God; how their lot is with the Saints!

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem

Joannes 4:46-53

In illo témpore: Erat quidam régulus, cujus fílius infirmabátur Caphárnaum. Hic cum audísset, quia Jesus adveníret a Judǽa in Galilǽam, ábiit ad eum, et rogábat eum, ut descénderet et sanáret fílium ejus: incipiébat enim mori. Dixit ergo Jesus ad eum: Nisi signa et prodígia vidéritis, non créditis. Dicit ad eum régulus: Dómine, descénde, priúsquam moriátur fílius meus. Dicit ei Jesus: Vade, fílius tuus vivit. Crédidit homo sermóni, quem dixit ei Jesus, et ibat. Jam autem eo descendénte, servi occurrérunt ei et nuntiavérunt, dicéntes, quia fílius ejus víveret. Interrogábat ergo horam ab eis, in qua mélius habúerit. Et dixérunt ei: Quia heri hora séptima relíquit eum febris. Cognóvit ergo pater, quia illa hora erat, in qua dixit ei Jesus: Fílius tuus vivit: et crédidit ipse et domus ejus tota.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to John

John 4:46-53

At that time, there was a certain royal official whose son was lying sick at Capharnaum. When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and besought Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. Jesus therefore said to him, Unless you see signs and wonders, you do not believe. The royal official said to Him, Sir, come down before my child dies. Jesus said to him, Go your way, your son lives. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and departed. But even as he was now going down, his servants met him and brought word saying that his son lived. He asked of them therefore the hour in which he had got better. And they told him, Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him. The father knew then that it was at that very hour in which Jesus had said to him, Your son lives. And he himself believed, and his whole household.

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:
