First ReadingJudges 2:11-19

From the Book of Judges

11The children of Israel did thatwhich was evil in the Lord’s sight,and served the Baals.12They abandoned the Lord,the God of their fathers,who brought them out of the land of Egypt,and followed other gods,of the gods of the peoples who were around them,and bowed themselves down to them;and they provoked the Lord to anger.13They abandoned the Lord,and served Baal and the Ashtaroth.14The Lord’s anger burned against Israel,and he delivered them into the hands of raiders who plundered them.He sold them into the hands of their enemies all around,so that they could no longer stand before their enemies.15Wherever they went out,the Lord’s hand was against them for evil,as the Lord had spoken,and as the Lord had sworn to them;and they were very distressed.16The Lord raised up judges,who saved them out of the hand of those who plundered them.17Yet they didn’t listen to their judges;for they prostituted themselves to other gods,and bowed themselves down to them.They quickly turned away from the way inwhich their fathers walked,obeying the Lord’s commandments.They didn’t do so.18When the Lord raised up judges for them,then the Lord was with the judge,and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge;for it grieved the Lordbecause of their groaning by reason of thosewho oppressed them and troubled them.19But when the judge was dead,they turned back,and dealt more corruptly than their fathers in following other gods to serve themand to bow down to them.They didn’t cease what they were doing,or give up their stubborn ways.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 106:34-35, 36-37, 39-40, 43ab and 44

34They didn’t destroy the peoples,as the Lord commanded them,35but mixed themselves with the nations,and learned their works.

36They served their idols,which became a snare to them.37Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.

39Thus they were defiled with their works,and prostituted themselves in their deeds.40Therefore the Lord burned with anger against his people.He abhorred his inheritance.

43He rescued them many times,but they were rebellious in their counsel,and were brought low in their iniquity.44Nevertheless he regarded their distress,when he heard their cry.

GospelMatthew 19:16-22

From the Gospel according to Matthew

16Behold, one came to him and said,“Good teacher, what good thing shall I do,that I may have eternal life?”

17He said to him, “Why do you call me good?No one is good but one, that is, God.But if you want to enter into life,keep the commandments.”

18He said to him, “Which ones?”

Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder.’‘You shall not commit adultery.’‘You shall not steal.’‘You shall not offer false testimony.’19‘Honor your father and your mother.’And, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”

20The young man said to him,“All these things I have observed from my youth.What do I still lack?”

21Jesus said to him,“If you want to be perfect,go, sell what you have,and give to the poor,and you will have treasure in heaven;and come, follow me.”22But when the young man heard this,he went away sad, for he was onewho had great possessions.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Corínthios

1 Cor 12:2-11

Fratres: Scitis, quóniam, cum gentes essétis, ad simulácra muta prout ducebámini eúntes. Ideo notum vobisfacio, quod nemo in Spíritu Dei loquens, dicit anáthema Jesu. Et nemo potest dícere, Dóminus Jesus, nisi in Spíritu Sancto. Divisiónes vero gratiárum sunt, idem autem Spíritus. Et divisiónes ministratiónum sunt, idem autem Dóminus. Et divisiónes operatiónum sunt, idem vero Deus, qui operátur ómnia in ómnibus. Unicuíque autem datur manifestátio Spíritus ad utilitátem. Alii quidem per Spíritum datur sermo sapiéntiæ álii autem sermo sciéntiæ secúndum eúndem Spíritum: álteri fides in eódem Spíritu: álii grátia sanitátum in uno Spíritu: álii operátio virtútum, álii prophetía, álii discrétio spirítuum, álii génera linguárum, álii interpretátio sermónum. Hæc autem ómnia operátur unus atque idem Spíritus, dívidens síngulis, prout vult.

Lesson from the first letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians

1 Cor. 12:2-11

Brethren: You know that when you were Gentiles, you went to dumb idols according as you were led. Wherefore I give you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God, says Anathema to Jesus. And no one can say Jesus is Lord, except in the Holy Spirit. Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of ministries, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of workings, but the same God, Who works all things in all. Now the manifestation of the Spirit is given to everyone for profit. To one through the Spirit is given the utterance of wisdom; and to another the utterance of knowledge, according to the same Spirit; to another faith, in the same Spirit; to another the gift of healing, in the one Spirit; to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another the distinguishing of spirits; to another various kinds of tongues; to another interpretation of tongues. But all these things are the work of one and the same Spirit, Who allots to everyone according as He will.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 18:9-14

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus ad quosdam, qui in se confidébant tamquam justi et aspernabántur céteros, parábolam istam: Duo hómines ascendérunt in templum, ut orárent: unus pharisǽus, et alter publicánus. Pharisǽus stans, hæc apud se orábat: Deus, grátias ago tibi, quia non sum sicut céteri hóminum: raptóres, injústi, adúlteri: velut étiam hic publicánus. Jejúno bis in sábbato: décimas do ómnium, quæ possídeo. Et publicánus a longe stans nolébat nec óculos ad cœlum leváre: sed percutiébat pectus suum, dicens: Deus, propítius esto mihi peccatóri. Dico vobis: descéndit hic justificátus in domum suam ab illo: quia omnis qui se exáltat, humiliábitur: et qui se humíliat, exaltábitur.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 18:9-14

At that time, Jesus spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves as being just and despised others. Two men went up to the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and began to pray thus within himself: ‘O God, I thank You that I am not like the rest of men, robbers, dishonest, adulterers, or even like this publican. I fast twice a week; I pay tithes of all that I possess.’ But the publican, standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes to heaven, but kept striking his breast, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to me the sinner!’ I tell you, this man went back to his home justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.

Ps 24:1-3

Ps 24:1-3

To You I lift up my soul, O Lord. In You, O my God, I trust; let me not be put to shame, let not my enemies exult over me. No one who waits for You shall be put to shame.

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:
