First ReadingActs 14:19-28

From the Acts of the Apostles

19But some Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there,and having persuaded the multitudes,they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city,supposing that he was dead.

20But as the disciples stood around him,he rose up, and entered into the city.On the next day he went out with Barnabas to Derbe.

21When they had preached the Good News tothat city and had made many disciples,they returned to Lystra,Iconium, and Antioch,22strengthening the souls of the disciples,exhorting them to continue in the faith,and that through many afflictions we must enter into God’s Kingdom.23When they had appointed elders for them in every assembly,and had prayed with fasting,they commended them to the Lord on whom they had believed.

24They passed through Pisidia and came to Pamphylia.25When they had spoken the word in Perga,they went down to Attalia.26From there they sailed to Antioch,from where they had been committed to the grace of God for the workwhich they had fulfilled.27When they had arrivedand had gathered the assembly together,they reported all the things that God had done with them,and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.28They stayed there with the disciples for a long time.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 145:10-11, 12-13ab, 21

10All your works will give thanks to you, Lord.Your saints will extol you.11They will speak of the glory of your kingdom,and talk about your power,

12to make known to the sons of men his mighty acts,the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.13Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom.Your dominion endures throughout all generations.The Lord is faithful in all his words,and loving in all his deeds.

21My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord.Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.

GospelJohn 14:27-31a

From the Gospel according to John

27Peace I leave with you.My peace I give to you;not as the world gives, I give to you.Don’t let your heart be troubled,neither let it be fearful.28You heard how I told you,‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’If you loved me, you would have rejoicedbecause I said ‘I am going to my Father;’for the Father is greater than I.29Now I have told you before it happens sothat when it happens, you may believe.30I will no more speak much with you,for the prince of the world comes,and he has nothing in me.31But that the world may know that I love the Father,and as the Father commanded me, even so I do.Arise, let’s go from here.

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!

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

Paschalis

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre: Te quidem, Dómine, omni témpore, sed in hoc potíssimum gloriósius prædicáre, cum Pascha nostrum immolátus est Christus. Ipse enim verus est Agnus, qui ábstulit peccáta mundi. Qui mortem nostram moriéndo destrúxit et vitam resurgéndo reparávit. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:

Easter

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, at all times to praise Thee, O Lord, but more gloriously especially in this season when Christ our Pasch was sacrificed. For He is the Lamb Who hath taken away the sins of the world: Who by dying hath destroyed our death: and by rising again hath restored us to life. 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:
