First ReadingGenesis 49:2, 8-10

From the Book of Genesis

2Assemble yourselves, and hear, you sons of Jacob.Listen to Israel, your father. verses 3–7 are not read8“Judah, your brothers will praise you.Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies.Your father’s sons will bow down before you.9Judah is a lion’s cub.From the prey, my son, you have gone up.He stooped down, he crouched as a lion,as a lioness.Who will rouse him up?10The scepter will not depart from Judah,nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet,until he comes to whom it belongs.The obedience of the peoples will be to him.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 72:1-2, 3-4ab, 7-8, 17

1God, give the king your justice;your righteousness to the royal son.2He will judge your people with righteousness,and your poor with justice.

3The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people.The hills bring the fruit of righteousness.4He will judge the poor of the people.He will save the children of the needy,and will break the oppressor in pieces.

7In his days, the righteous shall flourish,and abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.8He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,from the River to the ends of the earth.

17His name endures forever.His name continues as long as the sun.Men shall be blessed by him.All nations will call him blessed.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Isaíæ Prophétæ

Is 11:1-5

Hæc dicit Dóminus Deus: Egrediétur virga de radíce Jesse, et flos de radíce ejus ascéndet. Et requiéscet super eum spíritus Dómini: spíritus sapiéntiæ et intelléctus, spíritus consílii et fortitúdinis, spíritus sciéntiæ et pietátis; et replébit eum spíritus timóris Dómini. Non secundum visiónem oculórum judicábit: neque secúndum audítum áurium árguet: sed judicábit in justítia páuperes, et árguet in æquitáte pro mansuétis terræ: et percútiet terram virga oris sui, et spíritu labiórum suórum interfíciet ímpium. Et erit justítia cíngulum lumbórum ejus: et fides cinctórium renum ejus.

Lesson from the book of Isaias

Isa 11:1-5

Thus says the Lord God: A shoot shall sprout from the stump of Jesse, and from his roots a bud shall blossom. The spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him: a spirit of wisdom and of understanding, a spirit of knowledge and of piety, and His delight shall be the fear of the Lord. Not by appearance shall He judge, nor by hearsay shall He decide, but He shall judge the poor with justice, and decide aright for the land’s afflicted. He shall strike the ruthless with the rod of His mouth, and with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked. Justice shall be the band around His waist, and faithfulness a belt upon His hips.

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 1:39-47

In illo témpore: Exsúrgens María ábiit in montána cum festinatióne in civitátem Juda: et intrávit in domum Zacharíæ et salutávit Elísabeth. Et factum est, ut audivit salutatiónem Maríæ Elísabeth, exsultávit infans in útero ejus: et repléta est Spíritu Sancto Elísabeth, et exclamávit voce magna et dixit: Benedícta tu inter mulíeres, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui. Et unde hoc mihi, ut véniat Mater Dómini mei ad me? Ecce enim, ut facta est vox salutatiónis tuæ in áuribus meis, exsultávit in gáudio infans in útero meo. Et beáta, quæ credidísti, quóniam perficiéntur ea, quæ dicta sunt tibi a Dómino. Et ait María: Magníficat ánima mea Dóminum: et exsultávit spíritus meus in Deo, salutári meo.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 1:39-47

At that time, Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town of Juda. And she entered the house of Zachary and saluted Elizabeth. And it came to pass, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe in her womb leapt. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, and cried out with a loud voice, saying, Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb! And how have I deserved that the Mother of my Lord should come to me? For behold, the moment that the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the babe in my womb leapt for joy. And blessed is she who has believed, because the things promised her by the Lord shall be accomplished. And Mary said, My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.

Communis

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces ut admítti jubeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessione dicéntes:

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:
