First ReadingRomans 6:12-18

From the Letter of Paul to the Romans

12Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body,that you should obey it in its lusts.13Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness,but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead,and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.14For sin will not have dominion over you,for you are not under law, but under grace.

15What then? Shall we sinbecause we are not under law but under grace?May it never be!16Don’t you know thatwhen you present yourselves as servants and obey someone,you are the servants of whomever you obey,whether of sin to death,or of obedience to righteousness?17But thanks be to God that,whereas you were bondservants of sin,you became obedient from the heart tothat form of teaching to which you were delivered.18Being made free from sin,you became bondservants of righteousness.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 124:1b-3, 4-6, 7-8

1If it had not been the Lord who was on our side,let Israel now say,2if it had not been the Lord who was on our side,when men rose up against us,3then they would have swallowed us up alive,when their wrath was kindled against us,

4then the waters would have overwhelmed us,the stream would have gone over our soul.5Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.6Blessed be the Lord,who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare.The snare is broken, and we have escaped.8Our help is in the Lord’s name,who made heaven and earth.

GospelLuke 12:39-48

From the Gospel according to Luke

39But know this,that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming,he would have watchedand not allowed his house to be broken into.40Therefore be ready also,for the Son of Man is coming in an hourthat you don’t expect him.”

41Peter said to him,“Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everybody?”

42The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward,whom his lord will set over his household,to give them their portion of food at the right times?43Blessed is that servantwhom his lord will find doing so when he comes.44Truly I tell youthat he will set him over all that he has.45But if that servant says in his heart,‘My lord delays his coming,’and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants,and to eat and drink and to be drunken,46then the lord of that servant will come in a daywhen he isn’t expecting himand in an hour that he doesn’t know,and will cut him in two,and place his portion with the unfaithful.47That servant who knew his lord’s will,and didn’t prepare nor do what he wanted,will be beaten with many stripes,48but he who didn’t know,and did things worthy of stripes,will be beaten with few stripes.To whomever much is given, of him will much be required;and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Jacóbi Apóstoli

Jac 2:12-17

Carissimi: Sic loquímini, et sic fácite sicut per legem libertátis incipiéntes judicári. Judícium enim sine misericórdia illi, qui non fecit misericórdiam: superexáltat autem misericórdia judícium. Quid próderit, fratres mei, si fidem quis dicat se habére, ópera autem non hábeat? Numquid poterit fides salváre eum? Si autem frater et soror nudi sint, et indígeant victu quotidiáno, dicat autem áliquis ex vobis illis: Ite in pace, calefacímini et saturámini: non dedéritis autem eis, quæ necessária sunt córpori, quid próderit? Sic et fides, si non hábeat ópera, mórtua est in semetípsa.

Lesson from the letter of St James the Apostle

James 2:12-17

Dearly beloved: So speak and so act as men about to be judged by the law of liberty. For judgment is without mercy to him who has not shown mercy; but mercy triumphs over judgment. What will it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith, but does not have works? Can the faith save him? And if a brother or a sister be naked and in want of daily food, and one of you say to them, Go in peace, be warmed and filled, yet you do not give them what is necessary for the body, what does it profit? So faith too, unless it has works, is dead in itself.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 12:35-40

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Sint lumbi vestri præcíncti, et lucernæ ardéntes in mánibus vestris, et vos símiles homínibus exspectántibus dóminum suum, quando revertátur a núptiis: ut, cum vénerit et pulsáverit, conféstim apériant ei. ¶ Beáti servi illi, quos, cum vénerit dóminus, invénerit vigilántes: amen, dico vobis, quod præcínget se, et fáciet illos discúmbere, et tránsiens ministrábit illis. Et si vénerit in secúnda vigília, et si in tértia vigília vénerit, et ita invénerit, beáti sunt servi illi. Hoc autem scitóte, quóniam, si sciret paterfamílias, qua hora fur veníret, vigiláret útique, et non síneret pérfodi domum suam. Et vos estóte paráti, quia, qua hora non putátis, Fílius hóminis véniet.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 12:35-40

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, Let your loins be girt about and your lamps burning, and you yourselves like men waiting for their master’s return from the wedding; so that when he comes and knocks, they may straight-way open to him. Blessed are those servants whom the master, on his return, shall find watching. Amen I say to you, he will gird himself, and will make them recline at table, and will come and serve them. And if he comes in the second watch, and if in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those servants! But of this be assured, that if the householder had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would certainly have watched, and not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, because at an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man is coming.

Justítia indútus sum, et vestívi me, sicut vestiménto et diadémate, judício meo. Oculus fui cæco et pes claudo: pater eram páuperum.

Job 29:14-16

I wore my honesty like a garment; justice was my robe and my turban. I was eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame was I; I was a father to the needy.

Communis

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. Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces ut admítti jubeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessione dicéntes:

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:
