First ReadingJudges 11:29-39a

From the Book of Judges

29Then the Lord’s Spirit came on Jephthah,and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh,and passed over Mizpah of Gilead,and from Mizpah of Gilead he passed over to the children of Ammon.

30Jephthah vowed a vow to the Lord,and said, “If you will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand,31then it shall be,that whatever comes out of the doors of my house to meet mewhen I return in peace from the children of Ammon,it shall be the Lord’s,and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.”

32So Jephthah passed over to the children of Ammon to fight against them;and the Lord delivered them into his hand.33He struck them from Aroer until you come to Minnith,even twenty cities,and to Abelcheramim,with a very great slaughter.So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

34Jephthah came to Mizpah to his house;and behold, his daughter came out to meet him with tambourines and with dances.She was his only child.Besides her he had neither son nor daughter.35When he saw her, he tore his clothes,and said, “Alas, my daughter!You have brought me very low,and you are one of those who trouble me;for I have opened my mouth to the Lord,and I can’t go back.”

36She said to him, “My father,you have opened your mouth to the Lord;do to me according to thatwhich has proceeded out of your mouth,because the Lord has taken vengeance for you on your enemies,even on the children of Ammon.”37Then she said to her father,“Let this thing be done for me.Leave me alone two months,that I may depart and go down on the mountains,and bewail my virginity,I and my companions.”

38He said, “Go.”He sent her away for two months;and she departed, she and her companions,and mourned her virginity on the mountains.39At the end of two months,she returned to her father,who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed.She was a virgin.It became a custom in Israel

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 40:5, 7-8a, 8b-9, 10

5Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust,and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn away to lies.

7Sacrifice and offering you didn’t desire.You have opened my ears.You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.8Then I said, “Behold, I have come.

8It is written about me in the book in the scroll.9I delight to do your will, my God.Yes, your law is within my heart.”

10I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly.Behold, I will not seal my lips, Lord, you know.

GospelMatthew 22:1-14

From the Gospel according to Matthew

1Jesus answeredand spoke to them again in parables, saying,2“The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king,who made a wedding feast for his son,3and sent out his servants to call thosewho were invited to the wedding feast,but they would not come.4Again he sent out other servants,saying, ‘Tell those who are invited,“Behold, I have prepared my dinner.My cattle and my fatlings are killed,and all things are ready.Come to the wedding feast!”’5But they made light of it,and went their ways,one to his own farm,another to his merchandise;6and the rest grabbed his servants,treated them shamefully, and killed them.7When the king heard that,he was angry, and sent his armies,destroyed those murderers,and burned their city.

8“Then he said to his servants,‘The wedding is ready,but those who were invited weren’t worthy.9Go therefore to the intersections of the highways,and as many as you may find,invite to the wedding feast.’10Those servants went out into the highwaysand gathered together as many as they found,both bad and good.The wedding was filled with guests.

11“But when the king came in to see the guests,he saw there a man who didn’t have on wedding clothing,12and he said to him,‘Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?’He was speechless.13Then the king said to the servants,‘Bind him hand and foot,take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness.That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.’14For many are called, but few chosen.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Eccli 39:6-14

Justus cor suum tradet ad vigilándum dilúculo ad Dóminum, qui fecit illum, et in conspéctu Altíssimi deprecábitur. Apériet os suum in oratióne, et pro delíctis suis deprecábitur. Si enim Dóminus magnus volúerit, spíritu intellegéntias replébit illum: et ipse tamquam imbres mittet elóquia sapiéntiæ suæ, et in oratióne confitébitur Dómino: et ipse díriget consílium ejus et disciplínam, et in abscónditis suis consiliábitur. Ipse palam fáciet disciplínam doctrínæ suæ, et in lege testaménti Dómini gloriábitur. Collaudábunt multi sapiéntiam ejus, et usque in sǽculum non delébitur. Non recédet memória ejus, et nomen ejus requirétur a generatióne in generatiónem. Sapiéntiam ejus enarrábunt gentes, et laudem ejus enuntiábit ecclésia.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Ecclus 39:6-14

The just man will give his heart to resort early to the Lord his Maker, and he will pray in the sight of the Most High. He will open his mouth in prayer, and will ask pardon for his sins. Then, if it pleases the Lord Almighty, He will fill him with the spirit of understanding; and he will pour forth his words of wisdom as showers, and in prayer give thanks to the Lord, Who will direct his knowledge and his counsel, as he meditates upon His mysteries. He will show the wisdom of what he has learned and glory in the Law of the Lord’s covenant. Many will praise his understanding; his fame can never be effaced; unfading will be his memory, through all generations his name will live; peoples will speak of his wisdom, the assembly will sing his praises.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 5:13-19

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Vos estis sal terræ. Quod si sal evanúerit, in quo saliétur? Ad níhilum valet ultra, nisi ut mittátur foras, et conculcétur ab homínibus. Vos estis lux mundi. ¶ Non potest cívitas abscóndi supra montem pósita. Neque accéndunt lucérnam, et ponunt eam sub módio, sed super candelábrum, ut lúceat ómnibus, qui in domo sunt. Sic luceat lux vestra coram homínibus, ut vídeant ópera vestra bona, et gloríficent Patrem vestrum, qui in cœlis est. Nolíte putáre, quóniam veni sólvere legem aut prophétas: non veni sólvere, sed adimplére. Amen, quippe dico vobis, donec tránseat cœlum et terra, jota unum aut unus apex non præteríbit a lege, donec ómnia fiant. Qui ergo sólverit unum de mandátis istis mínimis, et docúerit sic hómines, mínimus vocábitur in regno cœlórum: qui autem fécerit et docúerit, hic magnus vocábitur in regno cœlórum.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 5:13-19

In that time Jesus said to His disciples: You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men. You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house. So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled. He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But he that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of 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.

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