First ReadingActs 12:1-11

From the Acts of the Apostles

1Now about that time,King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.2He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.3When he saw that it pleased the Jews,he proceeded to seize Peter also.This was during the days of unleavened bread.4When he had arrested him,he put him in prisonand delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him,intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.5Peter therefore was kept in the prison,but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.6The same night when Herod was about to bring him out,Peter was sleeping between two soldiers,bound with two chains.Guards in front of the door kept the prison.

7And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him,and a light shone in the cell.He struck Peter on the side and woke him up,saying, “Stand up quickly!”His chains fell off his hands.8The angel said to him,“Get dressed and put on your sandals.”He did so. He said to him,“Put on your cloak and follow me.”9And he went out and followed him.He didn’t knowthat what was being done by the angel was real,but thought he saw a vision.10When they were past the first and the second guard,they came to the iron gate that leads into the city,which opened to them by itself.They went out and went down one street,and immediately the angel departed from him.

11When Peter had come to himself,he said, “Now I truly knowthat the Lord has sent out his angeland delivered me out of the hand of Herod,and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 34:2-3, 4-5, 6-7, 8-9

2I will bless the Lord at all times.His praise will always be in my mouth.3My soul shall boast in the Lord.The humble shall hear of it and be glad.

4Oh magnify the Lord with me.Let’s exalt his name together.5I sought the Lord, and he answered me,and delivered me from all my fears.

6They looked to him, and were radiant.Their faces shall never be covered with shame.7This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him,and saved him out of all his troubles.

8The Lord’s angel encamps around those who fear him,and delivers them.9Oh taste and see that the Lord is good.Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

Second Reading2 Timothy 4:6-8, 17-18

From the Second Letter of Paul to Timothy

6For I am already being offered,and the time of my departure has come.7I have fought the good fight.I have finished the course.I have kept the faith.8From now on, the crown of righteousness is stored up for me,which the Lord, the righteous judge,will give to me on that day;and not to me only,but also to all those who have loved his appearing. verses 9–16 are not read17But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me,that through me the message might be fully proclaimed,and that all the Gentiles might hear.So I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.18And the Lord will deliver me from every evil workand will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom.To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

GospelMatthew 16:13-19

From the Gospel according to Matthew

13Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi,he asked his disciples,saying, “Who do men say that I,the Son of Man, am?”

14They said, “Some say John the Baptizer,some, Elijah, and others,Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

15He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”

16Simon Peter answered,“You are the Christ,the Son of the living God.”

17Jesus answered him,“Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah,for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you,but my Father who is in heaven.18I also tell you that you are Peter,and on this rock I will build my assembly,and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.19I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven,and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven;and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Petri Apóstoli

1 Pet 3:8-15

Caríssimi: Omnes unánimes in oratióne estóte, compatiéntes, fraternitátis amatóres, misericórdes, modésti, húmiles: non reddéntes malum pro malo, nec maledíctum pro maledícto, sed e contrário benedicéntes: quia in hoc vocáti estis, ut benedictiónem hereditáte possideátis. Qui enim vult vitam dilígere et dies vidére bonos, coérceat linguam suam a malo, et lábia ejus ne loquántur dolum. Declínet a malo, et fáciat bonum: inquírat pacem, et sequátur eam. Quia óculi Dómini super justos, et aures ejus in preces eórum: vultus autem Dómini super faciéntes mala. Et quis est, qui vobis nóceat, si boni æmulatóres fuéritis? Sed et si quid patímini propter justítiam, beáti. Timórem autem eórum ne timuéritis: et non conturbémini. Dóminum autem Christum sanctificáte in córdibus vestris.

Lesson from the first letter of St. Peter the Apostle

1 Pet 3:8-15.

Beloved: Be all like-minded in prayer, compassionate, lovers of the brethren, merciful, reserved, humble; not rendering evil for evil, or abuse for abuse, but contrariwise, blessing; for unto this were you called that you might inherit a blessing. For, 'He who would love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good, let him seek after peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are upon the just, and His ears unto their prayers; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.' And who is there to harm you, if you are zealous for what is good? But even if you suffer anything for justice’ sake, blessed are you. So have no fear of their fear and do not be troubled. But hallow the Lord Christ in your hearts.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 5:20-24

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Nisi abundáverit justítia vestra plus quam scribárum et pharisæórum, non intrábitis in regnum cœlórum. Audístis, quia dictum est antíquis: Non occídes: qui autem occíderit, reus erit judício. Ego autem dico vobis: quia omnis, qui iráscitur fratri suo, reus erit judício. Qui autem díxerit fratri suo, raca: reus erit concílio. Qui autem díxerit, fátue: reus erit gehénnæ ignis. Si ergo offers munus tuum ad altáre, et ibi recordátus fúeris, quia frater tuus habet áliquid advérsum te: relínque ibi munus tuum ante altáre et vade prius reconciliári fratri tuo: et tunc véniens ófferes munus tuum.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 5:20-24.

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples: Unless your justice exceeds that of the Scribes and Pharisees, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven. You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘You shall not kill’; and that whoever shall kill shall be liable to judgment. But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment; and whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ shall be liable to the Sanhedrin; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’, shall be liable to the fire of Gehenna. Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you, leave your gift before the altar and go first to be reconciled to your brother; and then come and offer your gift.

I bless the Lord Who counsels me; I set God ever before me; with Him at my right hand I shall not be disturbed.

PrefacePrefatio

de sanctissima Trinitate

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Qui cum unigénito Fílio tuo et Spíritu Sancto unus es Deus, unus es Dóminus: non in uníus singularitáte persónæ, sed in uníus Trinitáte substántiæ. Quod enim de tua glória, revelánte te, crédimus, hoc de Fílio tuo, hoc de Spíritu Sancto sine differéntia discretiónis sentímus. Ut in confessióne veræ sempiternǽque Deitátis, et in persónis propríetas, et in esséntia únitas, et in majestáte adorétur æquálitas. Quam laudant Angeli atque Archángeli, Chérubim quoque ac Séraphim: qui non cessant clamáre cotídie, una voce dicéntes:

Holy Trinity

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God; Who, together with Thine only-begotten Son, and the Holy Ghost, art one God, one Lord: not in the oneness of a single Person, but in the Trinity of one substance. For what we believe by Thy revelation of Thy glory, the same do we believe of Thy Son, the same of the Holy Ghost, without difference or separation. So that in confessing the true and everlasting Godhead, distinction in persons, unity in essence, and equality in majesty may be adored. Which the Angels and Archangels, the Cherubim also and Seraphim do praise: who cease not daily to cry out, with one voice saying:

Ps 26:4

Unam pétii a Dómino, hanc requíram: ut inhábitem in domo Dómini ómnibus diébus vitæ meæ.

Ps. 26:4.

One thing I ask of the Lord; this I seek: to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.

Quos cœlésti, Dómine, dono satiásti: præsta, quǽsumus; ut a nostris mundémur occúltis et ab hóstium liberémur insídiis.

Grant us, we beseech You, O Lord, that we whom You have filled with the heavenly gift may be cleansed of our hidden sins and delivered from the snares of our enemies.
