First Reading1 Maccabees 2:15-29

From the First Book of Maccabees

15And the king’s officerswho were enforcing the apostasy came into the city Modin to sacrifice.16Many of Israel came to them,and Mattathias and his sons were gathered together.17The king’s officers answered and spoke to Mattathias,saying, “You are a ruler and an honorableand great man in this city,and strengthened with sons and kindred.18Now therefore come firstand do the commandment of the king,as all the nations have done,including the men of Judahand those who remain in Jerusalem.You and your house will be numbered among the king’s friends,and you and your sons will be honored with silverand gold and many gifts.”

19And Mattathias answered and said with a loud voice,“If all the nationsthat are in the house of the king’s dominion listen to him,to fall away each one from the worship of his fathers,and have chosen to follow his commandments,20yet I and my sonsand my kindred will walk in the covenant of our fathers.21Far be it from usthat we should forsake the law and the ordinances.22We will not listen to the king’s words,to turn aside from our worship,to the right hand, or to the left.”

23When he had finished speaking these words,a Jew came in the sight of all to sacrifice on the altar which was at Modin,according to the king’s commandment.24Mattathias saw it,so his zeal was kindled,and his guts trembled,and he vented his wrath according to judgment,and ran and killed him upon the altar.25He killed the king’s officer,who compelled men to sacrifice,at the same time, and pulled down the altar.26He was zealous for the law,even as Phinehas did to Zimri the son of Salu.

27Mattathias cried out in the city with a loud voice,saying, “Whoever is zealous for the lawand maintains the covenant,let him follow me!”28He and his sons fled into the mountains,and left all that they had in the city.

29Then many who sought justiceand judgment went down into the wilderness to live there—

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 50:1b-2, 5-6, 14-15

1The Mighty One, God, the Lord, speaks,and calls the earth from sunrise to sunset.2Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,God shines out.

5“Gather my saints together to me,those who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”6The heavens shall declare his righteousness,for God himself is judge.

14Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving.Pay your vows to the Most High.15Call on me in the day of trouble.I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”

GospelLuke 19:41-44

From the Gospel according to Luke

41When he came near, he saw the city and wept over it,42saying, “If you, even you,had known today the things which belong to your peace!But now, they are hidden from your eyes.43For the days will come on youwhen your enemies will throw up a barricade against you,surround you, hem you in on every side,44and will dash youand your children within you to the ground.They will not leave in you one stone on another,because you didn’t know the time of your visitation.”

Eccli 44:16-27; 45, 3-20

Ecce sacérdos magnus, qui in diébus suis plácuit Deo, et invéntus est justus: et in témpore iracúndiæ factus est reconciliátio. Non est invéntus símilis illi, qui conservávit legem Excélsi.

Agnóvit eum in benedictiónibus suis: conservávit illi misericórdiam suam: et invénit grátiam coram óculis Dómini. Magnificávit eum in conspéctu regum: et dedit illi corónam glóriæ. Státuit illi testaméntum ætérnum, et dedit illi sacerdótium magnum: et beatificávit illum in glória. Fungi sacerdótio, et habére laudem in nómine ipsíus, et offérre illi incénsum dignum in odórem suavitátis.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Sir 44:16-27; 45:3-20

Behold, a great priest, who in his days pleased God, and was found just; and in the time of wrath he was made a reconciliation. There was not found the like to him, who kept the law of the Most High. Therefore, by an oath, the Lord made him to increase among his people. He gave him the blessing of all nations, and confirmed His covenant upon his head. He acknowledged him in His blessings; He preserved for him His mercy; and he found grace before the eyes of the Lord. He glorified him in the sight of kings, and gave him a crown of glory. He made an everlasting covenant with him, and gave him a great priesthood; and made him blessed in glory. To execute the office of the priesthood, and to have praise in His name, and to offer Him a worthy incense for an odor of sweetness.

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Marcum

Marc 11:22-24

In illo témpore: Respóndens Jesus discípulis suis, ait illis: Habéte fidem Dei. Amen, dico vobis, quia, quicúmque díxerit huic monti: Tóllere et míttere in mare, et non hæsitáverit in corde suo, sed credíderit, quia, quodcúmque díxerit, fiat, fiet ei. Proptérea dico vobis: Omnia quæcúmque orántes pétitis, crédite quia accipiétis, et evénient vobis.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Mark

Mark 11:22-24

At that time, Jesus answered and said to His disciples, Have faith in God. Amen I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Arise, and hurl yourself into the sea,’ and does not waver in his heart, but believes that whatever he says will be done, it shall be done for him. Therefore I say to you, all things whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you shall receive, and they shall come to you.

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.

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:
