First ReadingIsaiah 25:6-10a

From the Book of Isaiah

6In this mountain, the Lord of Armies will make all peoples a feast of choice meat,a feast of choice wines,of choice meat full of marrow,of well refined choice wines.7He will destroy in this mountain the surface of the coveringthat covers all peoples,and the veil that is spread over all nations.8He has swallowed up death forever!The Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces.He will take the reproach of his people away from off all the earth,for the Lord has spoken it.

9It shall be said in that day, “Behold, this is our God!We have waited for him, and he will save us!This is the Lord!We have waited for him.We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation!”10For the Lord’s hand will rest in this mountain.

Moab will be trodden down in his place,even like straw is trodden down in the water of the dunghill.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 23:1-3a, 3b-4, 5, 6

1The Lord is my shepherd;I shall lack nothing.2He makes me lie down in green pastures.He leads me beside still waters.3He restores my soul.

3He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.4Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil, for you are with me.Your rod and your staff,they comfort me.

5You prepare a table before mein the presence of my enemies.You anoint my head with oil.My cup runs over.

6Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life,and I will dwell in the Lord’s house forever.

GospelMatthew 15:29-37

From the Gospel according to Matthew

29Jesus departed from thereand came near to the sea of Galilee;and he went up on the mountain and sat there.30Great multitudes came to him,having with them the lame,blind, mute, maimed,and many others, and they put them down at his feet.He healed them,31so that the multitude wonderedwhen they saw the mute speaking,the injured healed,the lame walking, and the blind seeing—and they glorified the God of Israel.

32Jesus summoned his disciples and said,“I have compassion on the multitude,because they have continued with me now three daysand have nothing to eat.I don’t want to send them away fasting,or they might faint on the way.”

33The disciples said to him,“Where could we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?”

34Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?”

They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”

35He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;36and he took the seven loaves and the fish.He gave thanks and broke them,and gave to the disciples,and the disciples to the multitudes.37They all ate and were filled.They took up seven baskets full of the broken piecesthat were left over.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Hebrǽos

Hebr 13:7-17

Fratres: Mementóte præpositórum vestrórum, qui vobis locúti sunt verbum Dei: quorum intuéntes éxitum conversatiónis, imitámini fidem. Jesus Christus heri et hódie: ipse et in sǽcula. Doctrínis váriis et peregrínis nolíte abdúci. Optimum est enim grátia stabilíre cor, non escis, quæ non profuérunt ambulántibus in eis. Habémus altáre, de quo édere non habent potestátem, qui tabernáculo deserviunt. Quorum enim animálium infértur sanguis pro peccáto in Sancta per pontíficem, horum córpora cremántur extra castra. Propter quod et Jesus, ut sanctificáret per suum sánguinem pópulum, extra portam passus est. Exeámus ígitur ad eum extra castra, impropérium ejus portántes. Non enim habémus hic manéntem civitátem, sed futúram inquírimus. Per ipsum ergo offerámus hóstiam laudis semper Deo, id est fructum labiórum confiténtium nómini ejus. Beneficéntiæ autem et communiónis nolíte oblivísci: tálibus enim hóstiis promerétur Deus. Obœdíte præpósitis vestris et subjacéte eis. Ipsi enim pervígilant, quasi ratiónem pro animábus vestris redditúri.

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews

Heb 13:7-17

Brethren: Remember your superiors, who spoke to you the word of God. Consider how they ended their lives, and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday and today, yes, and forever. Do not be led away by various and strange doctrines. For it is good to make steadfast the heart by grace, not by foods, in which those who walked found no profit. We have an altar, from which they have no right to eat who serve the tabernacle. For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the Holies by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp; and so Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people by His Blood, suffered outside the gate. Let us therefore go forth to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach; for here we have no permanent city, but we seek for the city that is to come. Through Him, therefore, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise always to God, that is, fruit of lips praising His name. And do not forget kindness and charity, for by such sacrifices God’s favor is obtained. Obey your superiors and be subject to them, for they keep watch as having to render an account of your souls.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 25:14-23

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis parábolam hanc: Homo péregre proficíscens vocávit servos suos, et trádidit illis bona sua. Et uni dedit quinque talénta, álii autem duo, álii vero unum, unicuíque secúndum própriam virtútem, et proféctus est statim. Abiit autem, qui quinque talénta accéperat, et operátus est in eis, et lucrátus est ália quinque. Simíliter et, qui duo accéperat, lucrátus est ália duo. Qui autem unum accéperat, ábiens fodit in terram, et abscóndit pecúniam dómini sui. Post multum vero témporis venit dóminus servórum illórum, et pósuit ratiónem cum eis. Et accédens qui quinque talénta accéperat, óbtulit ália quinque talénta, dicens: Dómine, quinque talénta tradidísti mihi, ecce, ália quinque superlucrátus sum. Ait illi dóminus ejus: Euge, serve bone et fidélis, quia super pauca fuísti fidélis, super multa te constítuam: intra in gáudium dómini tui. Accéssit autem et qui duo talénta accéperat, et ait: Dómine, duo talénta tradidísti mihi, ecce, ália duo lucrátus sum. Ait illi dóminus ejus: Euge, serve bone et fidélis, quia super pauca fuísti fidélis, super multa te constítuam: intra in gáudium dómini tui.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 25:14-23

At that time, Jesus spoke this parable to His disciples: A man going abroad, called his servants and handed over his goods to them. And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his particular ability, and then he went on his journey. And he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and gained five more. In like manner, he who had received the two gained two more. But he who had received the one went away and dug in the earth and hid his master’s money. Then after a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. And he who had received the five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, ‘Master, you handed over to me five talents; behold, I have gained five others in addition.’ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; because you have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many; enter into the joy of your master.’ And he also who had received the two talents came, and said, ‘Master, you handed over to me two talents; behold, I have gained two more.’ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; because you have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many; enter into the joy of your master.’

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.

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:
