First ReadingPhilippians 3:3-8a

From the Letter of Paul to the Philippians

3For we are the circumcision,who worship God in the Spirit,and rejoice in Christ Jesus,and have no confidence in the flesh;4though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh.If any other man thinksthat he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:5circumcised the eighth day,of the stock of Israel,of the tribe of Benjamin,a Hebrew of Hebrews;concerning the law, a Pharisee;6concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly;concerning the righteousnesswhich is in the law, found blameless.

7However, I consider those thingsthat were gain to me as a loss for Christ.8Yes most certainly,and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus,my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things,and count them nothing but refuse,that I may gain Christ

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 105:2-3, 4-5, 6-7

2Sing to him, sing praises to him!Tell of all his marvelous works.3Glory in his holy name.Let the heart of those who seek the Lord rejoice.

4Seek the Lord and his strength.Seek his face forever more.5Remember his marvelous works that he has done:his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,

6you offspring of Abraham, his servant,you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.7He is the Lord, our God.His judgments are in all the earth.

GospelLuke 15:1-10

From the Gospel according to Luke

1Now all the tax collectorsand sinners were coming close to him to hear him.2The Pharisees and the scribes murmured,saying, “This man welcomes sinners,and eats with them.”

3He told them this parable:4“Which of you men,if you had one hundred sheep and lost one of them,wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wildernessand go after the one that was lost,until he found it?5When he has found it,he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing.6When he comes home,he calls together his friends and his neighbors,saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me,for I have found my sheep which was lost!’7I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents,than over ninety-nine righteous peoplewho need no repentance.

8“Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins,if she lost one drachma coin,wouldn’t light a lamp,sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it?9When she has found it,she calls together her friends and neighbors,saying, ‘Rejoice with me,for I have found the drachma which I had lost!’10Even so, I tell you,there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Philippénses

Phil 3:17-21; 4:1-3

Fratres: Imitatóres mei estóte, et observáte eos, qui ita ámbulant, sicut habétis formam nostram. Multi enim ámbulant, quos sæpe dicébam vobis - nunc autem et flens dico - inimícos Crucis Christi: quorum finis intéritus: quorum Deus venter est: et glória in confusióne ipsórum, qui terréna sápiunt. Nostra autem conversátio in cœlis est: unde étiam Salvatórem exspectámus, Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum, qui reformábit corpus humilitátis nostræ, configurátum córpori claritátis suæ, secúndum operatiónem, qua étiam possit subjícere sibi ómnia. Itaque, fratres mei caríssimi et desideratíssimi, gáudium meum et coróna mea: sic state in Dómino, caríssimi. Evódiam rogo et Sýntychen déprecor idípsum sápere in Dómino. Etiam rogo et te, germáne compar, ádjuva illas, quæ mecum laboravérunt in Evangélio cum Cleménte et céteris adjutóribus meis, quorum nómina sunt in libro vitæ.

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Philippians

Phil 3:17-21; 4:1-3

Brethren: Be imitators of me, and mark those who walk after the pattern you have in us. For many walk, of whom I have told you often and now tell you even weeping, that they are enemies of the Cross of Christ. Their end is ruin, their god is the belly, their glory is in their shame, they mind the things of earth. But our citizenship is in heaven from which also we eagerly await a Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ, Who will refashion the body of our lowliness, conforming it to the body of His glory by exerting the power by which He is able also to subject all things to Himself. So then, my brethren, beloved and longed for, my joy and my crown, stand fast thus in the Lord, beloved. I entreat Evodia and I exhort Syntyche to be of one mind in the Lord. And I beseech you also, my loyal comrade, help them, for they have toiled with me in the gospel, as have Clement and the rest of my fellow-workers whose names are in the book of life.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 9:18-26

In illo témpore: Loquénte Jesu ad turbas, ecce, princeps unus accéssit et adorábat eum, dicens: Dómine, fília mea modo defúncta est: sed veni, impóne manum tuam super eam, et vivet. Et surgens Jesus sequebátur eum et discípuli ejus. Et ecce múlier, quæ sánguinis fluxum patiebátur duódecim annis, accéssit retro et tétigit fímbriam vestiménti ejus. Dicébat enim intra se: Si tetígero tantum vestiméntum ejus, salva ero. At Jesus convérsus et videns eam, dixit: Confíde, fília, fides tua te salvam fecit. Et salva facta est múlier ex illa hora. Et cum venísset Jesus in domum príncipis, et vidísset tibícines et turbam tumultuántem, dicebat: Recédite: non est enim mórtua puélla, sed dormit. Et deridébant eum. Et cum ejécta esset turba, intrávit et ténuit manum ejus. Et surréxit puélla. Et éxiit fama hæc in univérsam terram illam.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 9:18-26

At that time, as Jesus was speaking to the crowds, behold, a ruler came up and worshipped Him, saying, “Lord, my daughter has just now died; but come and lay Your hand upon her, and she will return to life.” And Jesus arose and followed him, and so did His disciples. Now a woman who for twelve years had been suffering from hemorrhage, came up behind him and touched the tassel of His cloak saying to herself, “If I touch but His cloak I shall be saved.” But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, “Take courage, daughter; your faith has saved you.” And the woman was restored to health from that moment. And when Jesus came to the ruler's house, and saw the flute players and the crowd making a din, He said, “Begone, the girl is asleep, not dead.” And they laughed Him to scorn. But when the crowd had been put out, He went in and took her by the hand; and the girl arose. And the report of this spread throughout all that district.

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.

And do Thou command that it be permitted us to join with them in confessing Thee, while we say with lowly praise:
