First ReadingActs 1:15-17, 20-26

From the Acts of the Apostles

15In these days, Peter stood up in the middle of the disciples (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,16“Brothers, it was necessarythat this Scripture should be fulfilled,which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas,who was guide to those who took Jesus.17For he was counted with us,and received his portion in this ministry. verses 18–19 are not read20For it is written in the book of Psalms,

‘Let his habitation be made desolate.Let no one dwell in it;’

and,

‘Let another take his office.’

21“Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the timethat the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,22beginning from the baptism of John to the daythat he was received up from us,of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”

23They put forward two:Joseph called Barsabbas,who was also called Justus, and Matthias.24They prayed and said,“You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men,show which one of these two you have chosen25to take part in this ministryand apostleship from which Judas fell away,that he might go to his own place.”26They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias;and he was counted with the eleven apostles.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 113:1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8

1Praise the Lord!Praise, you servants of the Lord,praise the Lord’s name.2Blessed be the Lord’s name,from this time forward and forever more.

3From the rising of the sun to its going down,the Lord’s name is to be praised.4The Lord is high above all nations,his glory above the heavens.

5Who is like the Lord, our God,who has his seat on high,6who stoops down to see in heaven and on the earth?

7He raises up the poor out of the dust,and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,8that he may set him with princes,even with the princes of his people.

GospelJohn 15:9-17

From the Gospel according to John

9Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you.Remain in my love.10If you keep my commandments,you will remain in my love,even as I have kept my Father’s commandmentsand remain in his love.11I have spoken these things to you,that my joy may remain in you,and that your joy may be made full.

12“This is my commandment,that you love one another,even as I have loved you.13Greater love has no one than this,that someone lay down his life for his friends.14You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.15No longer do I call you servants,for the servant doesn’t know what his lord does.But I have called you friends,for everything that I heard from my Father,I have made known to you.16You didn’t choose me,but I chose you and appointed you,that you should go and bear fruit,and that your fruit should remain;that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name,he may give it to you.

17“I command these things to you,that you may love one another.

Léctio Actuum Apostolórum

Act 2:14-21.

In diébus illis: Stans Petrus cum úndecim, levávit vocem suam, et locútus est eis: Viri Judǽi, et qui habitátis Jerúsalem univérsi, hoc vobis notum sit, et áuribus percípite verba mea. Non enim, sicut vos æstimátis, hi ébrii sunt, cum sit hora diéi tértia: sed hoc est, quod dictum est per Prophétam Joël: Et erit in novíssimis diébus - dicit Dóminus - effúndam de Spíritu meo super omnem carnem, et prophetábunt fílii vestri et fíliæ vestræ, et júvenes vestri visiónes vidébunt, et senióres vestri sómnia somniábunt. Et quidem super servos meos et super ancíllas meas in diébus illis effúndam de Spíritu meo, et prophetábunt: et dabo prodígia in cœlo sursum et signa in terra deórsum, sánguinem et ignem et vapórem fumi. Sol convertétur in ténebras et luna in sánguinem, antequam véniat dies Dómini magnus et maniféstus. Et erit: omnis, quicúmque invocáverit nomen Dómini, salvus erit.

Deo gratias.

Lesson from the Acts of Apostles

Acts 2:14-21.

In those days, Peter, standing up with the Eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke out to them: Men of Judea and all you who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. These men are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only the third hour of the day. But this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel: ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says the Lord, that I will pour forth of My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams. And moreover upon My servants and upon My handmaids in those days will I pour forth of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy. And I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth beneath, blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord comes, the great and manifest day. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’

Thanks be to God.

Léctio Actuum Apostolórum

Acts 5:12-16

In diébus illis: Per manus autem Apostolórum fiébant signa et prodígia multa in plebe. Et erant unanímiter omnes in pórticu Salomónis. Ceterórum autem nemo audébat se conjúngere illis: sed magnificábat eos pópulus. Magis autem augebátur credéntium in Dómino multitúdo virórum ac mulíerum, ita ut in pláteas ejícerent infírmos, et pónerent in léctulis ac grabátis, ut, veniénte Petro, saltem umbra illíus obumbráret quemquam illórum, et liberaréntur ab infirmitátibus suis. Concurrébat autem et multitúdo vicinárum civitátum Jerúsalem, afferéntes ægros et vexátos a spirítibus immúndis: qui curabántur omnes.

Lesson from the Acts of Apostles

Acts 5:12-16

In those days, by the hands of the Apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. And with one accord they all would meet in Solomon’s portico; but of the rest, no one dared to associate with them, yet the people made much of them. And the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord increased still more, so that they carried the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and pallets that, when Peter passed, his shadow at least might fall on some of them. And there came also multitudes from the towns near Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those troubled with unclean spirits, and they were all cured.

Pleasant coolness in the heat;

Visit Thou these hearts of Thine, And our inmost being fill.

If Thou take Thy grace away,

Nothing pure in man will stay;

All his good is turn’d to ill.

Heal our wounds - our strength renew;

On our dryness pour Thy dew;

Wash the stains of guilt away:

Bend the stubborn heart and will;

Melt the frozen, warm the chill;

Guide the steps that go astray.

Thou, on those who evermore

Thee confess and Thee adore,

In Thy sevenfold gifts descend.

Give them comfort when they die;

Give them life with Thee on high;

Give them joys which never end.

Amen. Alleluia.

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem

Joannes 6:44-52

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus turbis Judæórum: Nemo potest veníre ad me, nisi Pater, qui misit me, tráxerit eum: et ego resuscitábo eum in novíssimo die. Est scriptum in Prophétis: Et erunt omnes docíbiles Dei. Omnis, qui audívit a Patre et dídicit, venit ad me. Non quia Patrem vidit quisquam, nisi is, qui est a Deo, hic vidit Patrem. Amen, amen, dico vobis: qui credit in me, habet vitam ætérnam. Ego sum panis vitæ. Patres vestri manducavérunt manna in desérto, et mórtui sunt. Hic est panis de cœlo descéndens: ut, si quis ex ipso manducáverit, non moriátur. Ego sum panis vivus, qui de cœlo descéndi. Si quis manducáverit ex hoc pane, vivet in ætérnum: et panis, quem ego dabo, caro mea est pro mundi vita.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to John

John 6:44-52.

At that time, Jesus said to the Jews: No one can come to Me unless the Father Who sent Me draw him, and I will raise him up on the last day. It is written in the Prophets, “And they all shall be taught of God.” Everyone who has listened to the Father, and has learned, comes to Me; not that anyone has seen the Father except Him Who is from God, He has seen the Father. Amen, amen, I say to you, he who believes in Me has life everlasting. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the desert, and have died. This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that if anyone eat of it he will not die. I am the living bread that has come down from heaven. If anyone eat of this bread he shall live forever; and the bread that I will give is My flesh for the life of the world.
