First ReadingEphesians 4:1-7, 11-13

From the Letter of Paul to the Ephesians

1I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord,beg you to walk worthily of the calling withwhich you were called,2with all lowliness and humility,with patience, bearing with one another in love,3being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.4There is one body and one Spirit,even as you also were called in one hope of your calling,5one Lord, one faith, one baptism,6one God and Father of all,who is over all and through all and in us all.7But to each one of us,the grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

verses 8–10 are not read11He gave some to be apostles;and some, prophets;and some, evangelists;and some, shepherds and teachers;12for the perfecting of the saints,to the work of serving,to the building up of the body of Christ,13until we all attain to the unity of the faithand of the knowledge of the Son of God,to a full grown man,to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 19:2-3, 4-5

2The heavens declare the glory of God.The expanse shows his handiwork.3Day after day they pour out speech,and night after night they display knowledge.

4There is no speech nor languagewhere their voice is not heard.5Their voice has gone out through all the earth,their words to the end of the world.In them he has set a tent for the sun,

GospelMatthew 9:9-13

From the Gospel according to Matthew

9As Jesus passed by from there,he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office.He said to him, “Follow me.”He got up and followed him.10As he sat in the house,behold, many tax collectors and sinners cameand sat down with Jesus and his disciples.11When the Pharisees saw it,they said to his disciples,“Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

12When Jesus heard it,he said to them, “Thosewho are healthy have no need for a physician,but those who are sick do.13But you go and learn what this means:‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’for I came not to call the righteous,but sinners to repentance.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio Ezechiélis Prophétæ

Ezech 1:10-14

Similitúdo vultus quátuor animálium: fácies hóminis, et fácies leónis a dextris ipsórum quatuor: fácies autem bovis a sinístris ipsórum quátuor, et fácies áquilæ désuper ipsórum quátuor. Fácies eórum et pennæ eórum exténtæ désuper: duæ pennæ singulórum jungebántur et duæ tegébant córpora eórum: et unumquódque eórum coram fácie sua ambulábat: ubi erat ímpetus spíritus, illuc gradiebántur, nec revertebántur cum ambulárent. Et similitúdo animálium, aspéctus eórum quasi carbónum ignis ardéntium et quasi aspéctus lampadárum. Hæc erat visio discúrrens in médio animálium, splendor ignis, et de igne fulgur egrédiens. Et animália ibant et revertebántur in similitúdinem fúlguris coruscántis.

Lesson from the book of Ezekiel

Ezek 1:10-14

And as for the likeness of their faces: there was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right side of all the four: and the face of an ox, on the left side of all the four: and the face of an eagle over all the four. And their faces, and their wings were stretched upward: two wings of every one were joined, and two covered their bodies: And every one of them went straight forward: whither the impulse of the spirit was to go, thither they went: and they turned not when they went. And as for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like that of burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps. This was the vision running to and fro in the midst of the living creatures, a bright fire, and lightning going forth from the fire. And the living creatures ran and returned like flashes of lightning.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 9:9-13

In illo témpore: Vidit Jesus hóminem sedéntem in telónio, Matthǽum nómine. Et ait illi: Séquere me. Et surgens, secútus est eum. Et factum est, discumbénte eo in domo, ecce, multi publicáni et peccatóres veniéntes discumbébant cum Jesu et discípulis ejus. Et vidéntes pharisæi, dicébant discípulis ejus: Quare cum publicánis et peccatóribus mandúcat Magíster vester? At Jesus áudiens, ait: Non est opus valéntibus médicus, sed male habéntibus. Eúntes autem díscite, quid est: Misericórdiam volo, et non sacrifícium. Non enim veni vocáre justos, sed peccatóres.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 9:9-13

At that time, Jesus saw a man named Matthew sitting in the tax-collector’s place, and said to him, Follow Me. And he arose and followed Him. And it came to pass as He was at table in the house, that, behold, many publicans and sinners came to the table with Jesus and His disciples. And the Pharisees seeing it, said to His disciples, Why does your Master eat with publicans and sinners? But Jesus heard it, and said, It is not the healthy who need a physician, but they who are sick. But go, and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I have come to call sinners, not the just.

PrefacePrefatio

de Apostolis

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre: Te, Dómine, supplíciter exoráre, ut gregem tuum, Pastor ætérne, non déseras: sed per beátos Apóstolos tuos contínua protectióne custódias. Ut iísdem rectóribus gubernétur, quos óperis tui vicários eídem contulísti præésse pastóres. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:

of Apostles

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, to entreat Thee humbly, O Lord, that Thou wouldst not desert Thy flock, O everlasting Shepherd, but, through Thy blessed Apostles, wouldst keep it under Thy constant protection; that it may be governed by those same rulers, whom as vicars of Thy work, Thou didst set over it to be its pastors. 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:
