First Reading2 Timothy 1:1-3, 6-12

From the Second Letter of Paul to Timothy

1Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God,according to the promise of the lifewhich is in Christ Jesus,2to Timothy, my beloved child:Grace, mercy, and peace,from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

3I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did,with a pure conscience.How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day

verses 4–5 are not read6For this cause, I remind youthat you should stir up the gift of Godwhich is in you through the laying on of my hands.7For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear,but of power, love, and self-control.8Therefore don’t be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord,nor of me his prisoner;but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,9who saved us and called us with a holy calling,not according to our works,but according to his own purpose and grace,which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,10but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior,Christ Jesus, who abolished death,and brought lifeand immortality to light through the Good News.11For this I was appointed as a preacher,an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.12For this cause I also suffer these things.

Yet I am not ashamed,for I know him whom I have believed,and I am persuaded that he is able to guard thatwhich I have committed to him against that day.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 123:1b-2ab, 2cdef

1I lift up my eyes to you,you who sit in the heavens.2Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master,

2as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,so our eyes look to the Lord, our God,until he has mercy on us.

GospelMark 12:18-27

From the Gospel according to Mark

18Some Sadducees, who saythat there is no resurrection, came to him.They asked him, saying,19“Teacher, Moses wrote to us,‘If a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife behind him,and leaves no children,that his brother should take his wifeand raise up offspring for his brother.’20There were seven brothers.The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.21The second took her,and died, leaving no children behind him.The third likewise;22and the seven took her and left no children.Last of all the woman also died.23In the resurrection,when they rise, whose wife will she be of them?For the seven had her as a wife.”

24Jesus answered them,“Isn’t this because you are mistaken,not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God?25For when they will rise from the dead,they neither marry nor are given in marriage,but are like angels in heaven.26But about the dead,that they are raised,haven’t you read in the book of Moses about the Bush,how God spoke to him,saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham,the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?27He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.You are therefore badly mistaken.”

Is 65:19; 65:23

Exsultábo in Jerúsalem et gaudébo in pópulo meo: et non audiétur in eo ultra vos fletus et vox clamóris. Elécti mei non laborábunt frustra neque generábunt in conturbatióne: quia semen benedictórum Dómini est, et nepótes eórum cum eis.

Ps 43:2

Deus, áuribus nostris audívimus: patres nostri narravérunt opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum.

Glória Patri…

Isa. 65:19; 65:23

I will rejoice in Jerusalem and exult in My people. No longer shall the sound of weeping be heard there, or the sound of crying. My elect shall not toil in vain, nor beget children for sudden destruction; for a race blessed by the Lord are they and their offspring.

Ps 43:2

O God, our ears have heard, our fathers have declared to us, the deeds You did in their days.

Glory Be to the Father…

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Eccli 44:1-15

Laudémus viros gloriósos et paréntes nostros in generatióne sua. Multam glóriam fecit Dóminus magnificéntia sua a sǽculo. Dominántes in potestátibus suis, hómines magni virtúte et prudéntia sua præditi, nuntiántes in prophétis dignitátem prophetárum, et imperántes in præsénti pópulo, et virtúte prudéntiæ pópulis sanctíssima verba. In perítia sua requiréntes modos músicos, et narrántes cármina scripturárum. Hómines dívites in virtúte, pulchritúdinis stúdium habéntes: pacificántes in dómibus suis. Omnes isti in generatiónibus gentis suæ glóriam adépti sunt, et in diébus suis habéntur in láudibus. Qui de illis nati sunt, reliquérunt nomen narrándi laudes eórum. Et sunt, quorum non est memória: periérunt, quasi qui non fúerint: et nati sunt, quasi non nati, et fílii ipsórum cum ipsis. Sed illi viri misericórdiæ sunt, quorum pietátes non defuérunt: cum sémine eórum pérmanent bona, heréditas sancta nepótes eórum, et in testaméntis stetit semen eórum: et fílii eórum propter illos usque in ætérnum manent: semen eórum et glória eórum non derelinquétur. Córpora ipsórum in pace sepúlta sunt, et nomen eórum vivit in generatiónem et generatiónem. Sapiéntiam ipsórum narrent pópuli, et laudem eórum núntiet Ecclésia.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Ecclus 44:1-15

Let us now praise men of renown, our ancestors, each in his own time. The Lord has wrought great glory through His magnificence from the beginning. Rulers of the earth by their authority, men of renown for their might, or counselors in their wisdom, or seers of all things in prophecy; resolute governors of peoples, or judges with discretion; authors skilled in composition, or poets with collected proverbs; composers of melodious psalms, or discoursers on lyric themes; stalwart men, solidly established, lovers of beauty, and at peace in their own estates - all these were glorious in their time, each illustrious in his day. Some of them have left behind a name that is remembered to their praise; but of others there is no memory, for it perished when they perished, and they are as though they had never lived, they and their children after them. Yet these also were godly men whose virtues have not been forgotten; their wealth remains in their families, their posterity are a holy inheritance, and their seed has stood in the covenants. And their children for their sakes remain forever; their seed and their glory shall not be forsaken. All these are buried in peace, but their name lives on and on. At gatherings their wisdom is retold and the assembly sings their praises.

Declinábo super eum quasi flúvium pacis, et quasi torréntem inundántem glóriam. Allelúja.

1 Peter 4:13-14.

Rejoice, in so far as you are partakers of the sufferings of Christ, that you may also rejoice with exultation in the revelation of His glory.

℣.If you are upbraided for the name of Christ, blessed will you be, because the honor, the glory and the power of God, and Spirit rest upon you. Alleluia, alleluia.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 5:1-12

In illo témpore: Videns Jesus turbas, ascéndit in montem, et cum sedísset, accessérunt ad eum discípuli ejus, et apériens os suum, docébat eos, dicens: Beáti páuperes spíritu: quóniam ipsórum est regnum cœlórum. Beáti mites: quóniam ipsi possidébunt terram. Beáti, qui lugent: quóniam ipsi consolabúntur. Beáti, qui esúriunt et sítiunt justítiam: quóniam ipsi saturabúntur. Beáti misericórdes: quóniam ipsi misericórdiam consequántur. Beáti mundo corde: quóniam ipsi Deum vidébunt. Beáti pacífici: quóniam fílii Dei vocabúntur. Beáti, qui persecutiónem patiúntur propter justítiam: quóniam ipsórum est regnum cœlórum. Beáti estis, cum maledíxerint vobis et persecúti vos fúerint, et díxerint omne malum advérsum vos, mentiéntes, propter me: gaudete et exsultáte, quóniam merces vestra copiósa est in cœlis.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 5:1-12

At that time, Jesus seeing the crowds, went up the mountain. And when He was seated, His disciples came to Him. And opening His mouth He taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are the meek, for they shall possess the earth. Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for justice, for they shall be satisfied. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the clean of heart, for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are you when men reproach you, and persecute you, and, speaking falsely, say all manner of evil against you, for My sake. Rejoice and exult, because your reward is great in heaven.

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:
