First ReadingActs 7:51—8:1a

From the Acts of the Apostles

51“You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears,you always resist the Holy Spirit!As your fathers did, so you do.52Which of the prophets didn’t your fathers persecute?They killed thosewho foretold the coming of the Righteous One,of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.53You received the law as it was ordained by angels,and didn’t keep it!”

54Now when they heard these things,they were cut to the heart,and they gnashed at him with their teeth.55But he, being full of the Holy Spirit,looked up steadfastly into heavenand saw the glory of God,and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,56and said, “Behold,I see the heavens openedand the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”

57But they cried out with a loud voiceand stopped their ears,then rushed at him with one accord.58They threw him out of the city and stoned him.The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.59They stoned Stephen as he called out,saying, “Lord Jesus,receive my spirit!”60He kneeled down and cried with a loud voice,“Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!”When he had said this, he fell asleep.

1Saul was consenting to his death.A great persecution arose against the assemblywhich was in Jerusalem in that day.They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria,except for the apostles.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 31:3cd-4, 6 and 7b and 8a, 17 and 21ab

3Bow down your ear to me.Deliver me speedily.Be to me a strong rock,a house of defense to save me.4For you are my rock and my fortress,therefore for your name’s sake lead me and guide me.

6Into your hand I commend my spirit.You redeem me, Lord, God of truth.7I hate those who regard lying vanities,but I trust in the Lord.8I will be glad and rejoice in your loving kindness,for you have seen my affliction.You have known my soul in adversities.

17Make your face to shine on your servant.Save me in your loving kindness.21In the shelter of your presence you will hide them from the plotting of man.You will keep them secretly in a dwelling away from the strife of tongues.

GospelJohn 6:30-35

From the Gospel according to John

30They said therefore to him,“What then do you do for a sign,that we may see and believe you?What work do you do?31Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness.As it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”

32Jesus therefore said to them,“Most certainly, I tell you,it wasn’t Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven,but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.33For the bread of God is thatwhich comes down out of heavenand gives life to the world.”

34They said therefore to him,“Lord, always give us this bread.”

35Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life.Whoever comes to me will not be hungry,and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Corínthios.

2 Cor 4:5-14.

Fratres: Non nosmetípsos prædicámus, sed Jesum Christum, Dóminum nostrum: nos autem servos vestros per Jesum: quóniam Deus, qui dixit de ténebris lucem splendéscere, ipse illúxit in córdibus nostris ad illuminatiónem sciéntiæ claritátis Dei, in fácie Christi Jesu. Habémus autem thesáurum istum in vasis fictílibus: ut sublímitas sit virtútis Dei, et non ex nobis. In ómnibus tribulatiónem pátimur, sed non angustiámur: aporiámur, sed non destitúimur: persecutiónem pátimur, sed non derelínquimur: dejícimur, sed non perímus: semper mortificatiónem Jesu in córpore nostro circumferéntes, ut et vita Jesu manifestétur in corpóribus nostris. Semper enim nos, qui vívimus, in mortem trádimur propter Jesum: ut et vita Jesu manifestétur in carne nostra mortáli. Ergo mors in nobis operátur, vita autem in vobis. Habéntes autem eúndem spíritum fídei, sicut scriptum est: Crédidi, propter quod locútus sum: et nos crédimus, propter quod et lóquimur: sciéntes, quóniam qui suscitávit Jesum, et nos cum Jesu suscitábit et constítuet vobíscum.

Lesson from the second letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians

2 Cor. 4:5-14

Brethren: We preach not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves merely as your servants in Jesus. For God, Who commanded light to shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts, to give enlightenment concerning the knowledge of the glory of God, shining on the face of Christ Jesus. But we carry this treasure in vessels of clay, to show that the abundance of the power is God’s and not ours. In all things we suffer tribulation, but we are not distressed; we are sore pressed, but we are not destitute; we endure persecution, but we are not forsaken; we are cast down, but we do not perish; always bearing about in our body the dying of Jesus, so that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in our bodily frame. For we the living are constantly being handed over to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in our mortal flesh. Thus death is at work in us, but life in you. But since we have the same spirit of faith, as shown in that which is written - I believed, and so I spoke - we also believed, wherefore we also speak. For we know that He Who raised up Jesus will raise up us also with Jesus, and will place us with you.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum.

Matt 10:23-28

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Cum persequéntur vos in civitáte ista, fúgite in áliam. Amen dico vobis, non consummábitis civitátes Israël, donec véniat Fílius hóminis. Non est discípulus super magistrum, nec servus super dóminum suum. Súfficit discípulo, ut sit sicut magister ejus: et servo, sicut dóminus ejus. Si patremfamílias Beélzebub vocavérunt: quanto magis domésticos ejus? Ne ergo timuéritis eos. Nihil enim est opértum, quod non revelábitur: et occúltum, quod non sciétur. Quod dico vobis in ténebris, dícite in lúmine: et, quod in aure audítis, prædicáte super tecta. Et nolíte timére eos, qui occídunt corpus, ánimam autem non possunt occídere: sed pótius timéte eum, qui potest et ánimam et corpus pérdere in gehénnam.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 10:23-28

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, When they persecute you in one town, flee to another. Amen I say to you, you will not have gone through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes. No disciple is above his teacher, nor is the servant above his master. It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and for the servant to be like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more those of his household! Therefore do not be afraid of them. For there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known. What I tell you in darkness, speak it in the light; and what you hear whispered, preach it on the housetops. And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather be afraid of Him, Who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

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:
