First ReadingZephaniah 3:14-18a

From the Book of Zephaniah

or Romans 12:9-16

14Sing, daughter of Zion!Shout, Israel!Be glad and rejoice with all your heart,daughter of Jerusalem.15The Lord has taken away your judgments.He has thrown out your enemy.The King of Israel, the Lord, is among you.You will not be afraid of evil any more.16In that day, it will be said to Jerusalem,“Don’t be afraid, Zion.Don’t let your hands be weak.”17The Lord, your God,is among you, a mighty one who will save.He will rejoice over you with joy.He will calm you in his love.He will rejoice over you with singing.18I will remove thosewho grieve about the appointed feasts from you.They are a burden and a reproach to you.

Responsorial PsalmIsaiah 12:2-3, 4bcd, 5-6

From the Book of Isaiah

2Behold, God is my salvation.I will trust, and will not be afraid;for the Lord, the Lord, is my strength and song;and he has become my salvation.”3Therefore with joy you will draw water out of the wells of salvation.

4In that day you will say, “Give thanks to the Lord!Call on his name!Declare his doings among the peoples!Proclaim that his name is exalted!

5Sing to the Lord, for he has done excellent things!Let this be known in all the earth!6Cry aloud and shout,you inhabitant of Zion,for the Holy One of Israel is great among you!”

GospelLuke 1:39-56

From the Gospel according to Luke

39Mary arose in those daysand went into the hill country with haste,into a city of Judah,40and entered into the house of Zachariasand greeted Elizabeth.41When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting,the baby leaped in her womb;and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.42She called out with a loud voice and said,“Blessed are you among women,and blessed is the fruit of your womb!43Why am I so favored,that the mother of my Lord should come to me?44For behold, when the voice of your greeting came into my ears,the baby leaped in my womb for joy!45Blessed is she who believed,for there will be a fulfillment of the thingswhich have been spoken to her from the Lord!”

46Mary said,

“My soul magnifies the Lord.47My spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior,48for he has looked at the humble state of his servant.For behold, from now on, all generations will call me blessed.49For he who is mighty has done great things for me.Holy is his name.50His mercy is for generations and generations on those who fear him.51He has shown strength with his arm.He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.52He has put down princes from their thrones,and has exalted the lowly.53He has filled the hungry with good things.He has sent the rich away empty.54He has given help to Israel, his servant, that he might remember mercy,55as he spoke to our fathers,to Abraham and his offspring forever.”

56Mary stayed with her about three months,and then returned to her house.

EpistleLectio

Lectio libri Sapientiæ

Eccli 24:5, 7, 9-11, 30-31

Ego ex ore Altíssimi prodívi, primogénita ante omnem creatúram; ego in altíssimis habitávi, et thronus meus in colúmna nubis. In omni terra steti; et in omni pópulo, et in omni gente primátum hábui, et ómnium excelléntium et humílium corda virtúte calcávi. Qui audit me, non confundétur, et qui operántur in me, non peccábunt; qui elúcidant me, vitam ætérnam habébunt.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Eccli 24:5; 14:7; 14:9-11; 24:30-31

From the mouth of the Most High I came forth, the firstborn before all creatures. In the highest heavens did I dwell, my throne on a pillar cloud. Over all the land, over every people and nation I held sway, and by my power I have trodden under my feet the hearts of all the high and low. He who obeys me will not be put to shame, and they who work by me shall not sin. They who explain me shall have life everlasting.

GospelEvangelium

Sequentia sancti Evangelii secundum Lucam.

Luc 1:26-33

In illo témpore: Missus est Angelus Gábriel a Deo in civitátem Galilǽæ, cui nomen Názareth, ad Vírginem desponsátam viro, cui nomen erat Ioseph, de domo David, et nomen Vírginis María. Et ingréssus Angelus ad eam, dixit: Ave, grátia plena: Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus. Quæ cum audísset, turbáta est in sermóne eius: et cogitábat, qualis esset ista salutátio. Et ait Angelus ei: Ne tímeas, María, invenísti enim grátiam apud Deum: ecce concípies in útero, et páries fílium, et vocábis nomen eius Iesum. Hic erit magnus, et Fílius Altíssimi vocábitur, et dabit illi Dóminus Deus sedem David patris eius: et regnábit in domo Iacob in ætérnum, et regni eius non erit finis.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 1:26-33

At that time, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. And when the angel had come to her, he said, Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women. When she had heard him she was troubled at his word, and kept pondering what manner of greeting this might be. And the angel said to her, Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found grace with God. Behold, you shall conceive in your womb and shall bring forth a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of David His father, and He shall be king over the house of Jacob forever; and of His kingdom there shall be no end.

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Et te in festivitate beátæ Maríæ semper Vírginis collaudáre, benedícere et prædicáre.

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 Et te in festivitate 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:
