First ReadingActs 12:24—13:5a

From the Acts of the Apostles

24But the word of God grew and multiplied.25Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalemwhen they had fulfilled their service,also taking with them John who was called Mark.

1Now in the assemblythat was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers:Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger,Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.2As they served the Lord and fasted,the Holy Spirit said,“Separate Barnabas and Saul for me,for the work to which I have called them.”

3Then, when they had fasted and prayedand laid their hands on them,they sent them away.4So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit,they went down to Seleucia.From there they sailed to Cyprus.5When they were at Salamis,they proclaimed God’s word in the Jewish synagogues.They also had John as their attendant.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 67:2-3, 5, 6 and 8

2May God be merciful to us, bless us,and cause his face to shine on us.3That your way may be known on earth,and your salvation among all nations,

5Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy,for you will judge the peoples with equity,and govern the nations on earth.

6Let the peoples praise you, God.Let all the peoples praise you.8God will bless us.All the ends of the earth shall fear him.

GospelJohn 12:44-50

From the Gospel according to John

44Jesus cried out and said,“Whoever believes in me,believes not in me,but in him who sent me.45He who sees me sees him who sent me.46I have come as a light into the world,that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.47If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe,I don’t judge him.For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.48He who rejects me,and doesn’t receive my sayings,has one who judges him.The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.49For I spoke not from myself,but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment,what I should say and what I should speak.50I know that his commandment is eternal life.The things therefore which I speak,even as the Father has said to me, so I speak.”

EpistleLectio

Eccli 31:8-11

Beátus vir, qui invéntus est sine mácula, et qui post aurum non ábiit, nec sperávit in pecúnia et thesáuris. Quis est hic, et laudábimus eum? fecit enim mirabília in vita sua. Qui probátus est in illo, et perféctus est, erit illi glória ætérna: qui potuit tránsgredi, et non est transgréssus: fácere mala, et non fecit: ídeo stabilíta sunt bona illíus in Dómino, et eleemósynas illíus enarrábit omnis ecclésia sanctórum.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Sir 31:8-11

Happy the man found without fault, who turns not aside after gain, nor puts his trust in money nor in treasures! Who is he, that we may praise him? For he has done wonders in his life. He has been tested by gold and come off safe, and this remains his glory forever; he could have sinned but did not, could have done evil but would not, so that his possessions are secure in the Lord, and the assembly of the Saints shall recount his alms.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 12:35-40

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Sint lumbi vestri præcíncti, et lucernæ ardéntes in mánibus vestris, et vos símiles homínibus exspectántibus dóminum suum, quando revertátur a núptiis: ut, cum vénerit et pulsáverit, conféstim apériant ei. ¶ Beáti servi illi, quos, cum vénerit dóminus, invénerit vigilántes: amen, dico vobis, quod præcínget se, et fáciet illos discúmbere, et tránsiens ministrábit illis. Et si vénerit in secúnda vigília, et si in tértia vigília vénerit, et ita invénerit, beáti sunt servi illi. Hoc autem scitóte, quóniam, si sciret paterfamílias, qua hora fur veníret, vigiláret útique, et non síneret pérfodi domum suam. Et vos estóte paráti, quia, qua hora non putátis, Fílius hóminis véniet.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 12:35-40

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, Let your loins be girt about and your lamps burning, and you yourselves like men waiting for their master’s return from the wedding; so that when he comes and knocks, they may straight-way open to him. Blessed are those servants whom the master, on his return, shall find watching. Amen I say to you, he will gird himself, and will make them recline at table, and will come and serve them. And if he comes in the second watch, and if in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those servants! But of this be assured, that if the householder had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would certainly have watched, and not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, because at an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man is coming.

PrefacePrefatio

Paschalis

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre: Te quidem, Dómine, omni témpore, sed in hoc potíssimum gloriósius prædicáre, cum Pascha nostrum immolátus est Christus. Ipse enim verus est Agnus, qui ábstulit peccáta mundi. Qui mortem nostram moriéndo destrúxit et vitam resurgéndo reparávit. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:

Easter

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, at all times to praise Thee, O Lord, but more gloriously especially in this season when Christ our Pasch was sacrificed. For He is the Lamb Who hath taken away the sins of the world: Who by dying hath destroyed our death: and by rising again hath restored us to life. And therefore with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
