First Reading2 Kings 22:8-13; 23:1-3*

From the Second Book of Kings

8Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe,“I have found the book of the law in the Lord’s house.”Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.9Shaphan the scribe came to the king,and brought the king word again,and said, “Your servants have emptied out the moneythat was found in the house,and have delivered it into the hands of the workmenwho have the oversight of the Lord’s house.”10Shaphan the scribe told the king,saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me.”Then Shaphan read it before the king.

11When the king had heard the words of the book of the law,he tore his clothes.12The king commanded Hilkiah the priest,Ahikam the son of Shaphan,Achbor the son of Micaiah,Shaphan the scribe,and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying,13“Go inquire of the Lord for me,and for the people,and for all Judah,concerning the words of this book that is found;for great is the Lord’s wrath that is kindled against us,because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book,to do according to all thatwhich is written concerning us.”

some verses are not read1The king sent,and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.2The king went up to the Lord’s house,and all the men of Judahand all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him—with the priests, the prophets,and all the people,both small and great;and he read in their hearing all the words of the book of the covenantwhich was found in the Lord’s house.3The king stood by the pillarand made a covenant before the Lord to walk after the Lordand to keep his commandments,his testimonies,and his statutes with all his heart and all his soul,to confirm the words of this covenantthat were written in this book;and all the people agreed to the covenant.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 119:33-34, 35-36, 37 and 40*

33Teach me, Lord, the way of your statutes.I will keep them to the end.34Give me understanding, and I will keep your law.Yes, I will obey it with my whole heart.

35Direct me in the path of your commandments,for I delight in them.36Turn my heart toward your statutes,not toward selfish gain.

37Turn my eyes away from looking at worthless things.Revive me in your ways.40Behold, I long for your precepts!Revive me in your righteousness.

GospelMatthew 7:15-20

From the Gospel according to Matthew

15“Beware of false prophets,who come to you in sheep’s clothing,but inwardly are ravening wolves.16By their fruits you will know them.Do you gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles?17Even so, every good tree produces good fruit,but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.18A good tree can’t produce evil fruit,neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.19Every tree that doesn’t grow good fruit is cut downand thrown into the fire.20Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Eccli 44:10-15

Hi viri misericórdiæ sunt, quorum pietátes non defuérunt: cum semine 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

Eccli 44:10-15

These 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.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 12:1-8

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Atténdite a ferménto pharisæórum, quod est hypócrisis. Nihil autem opértum est, quod non revelétur: neque abscónditum, quod non sciátur. ¶ Quóniam, quæ in ténebris dixístis, in lúmine dicéntur: et quod in aurem locúti estis in cubículis, prædicábitur in tectis. Dico autem vobis amícis meis: Ne terreámini ab his, qui occídunt corpus, et post hæc non habent ámplius quid fáciant. Osténdam autem vobis, quem timeátis: timéte eum, qui postquam occíderit, habet potestátem míttere in gehénnam. Ita dico vobis: hunc timéte. Nonne quinque pásseres véneunt dipóndio, et unus ex illis non est in oblivióne coram Deo? Sed et capílli cápitis vestri omnes numeráti sunt. Nolíte ergo timére: multis passéribus pluris estis vos. Dico autem vobis: Omnis, quicúmque conféssus fúerit me coram homínibus, et Fílius hóminis confitébitur illum coram Angelis Dei.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 12:1-8

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. But there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known. For what you have said in darkness will be said in the light; and what you have whispered in the inner chambers will be preached on the housetops. But I say to you, My friends: Do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do. But I will show you Whom you shall be afraid of; be afraid of Him Who, after He has killed, has power to cast into hell. Yes, I say to you, be afraid of Him. Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings? And yet not one of them is forgotten before God. Yes, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore do not be afraid, you are of more value than many sparrows. And I say to you, everyone who acknowledges Me before men, him will the Son of Man also acknowledge before the angels of God.

PrefacePrefatio

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:

Sap 3:4-6

Et si coram homínibus torménta passi sunt, Deus tentávit eos: tamquam aurum in fornáce probávit eos, et quasi holocáusta accépit eos.

Wis 3:4-6

For if before men they be punished, God tried them; as gold in the furnace, He proved them, and as sacrificial offerings He took them to Himself.

Súmpsimus, Dómine, sanctórum Martyrum tuórum Joánnis et Pauli sollémnia celebrántes, sacraménta cœléstia: præsta, quǽsumus; ut, quod temporáliter gérimus, ætérnis gáudiis consequámur.
