First ReadingTobit 2:9-14

From the Book of Tobit

9The same night I returned from burying him,and slept by the wall of my courtyard, being polluted;and my face was uncovered.10I didn’t know that there were sparrows in the wall.My eyes were openand the sparrows dropped warm dung into my eyes,and white films came over my eyes.I went to the physicians, and they didn’t help me;but Achiacharus nourished me, until I went into Elymais.

11My wife Anna wove cloth in the women’s chambers,12and sent the work back to the owners.They on their part paid her wages,and also gave her a kid.13But when it came to my house,it began to cry, and I said to her,“Where did this kid come from?Is it stolen?Give it back to the owners;for it is not lawful to eat anything that is stolen.”14But she said, “It has been given to me for a gift more than the wages.”

I didn’t believe her,and I asked her to return it to the owners;and I was ashamed of her.

But she answered and said to me,“Where are your alms and your righteous deeds?Behold, you and all your works are known.”

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 112:1-2, 7-8, 9

1Praise the Lord!Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,who delights greatly in his commandments.2His offspring will be mighty in the land.The generation of the upright will be blessed.

7He will not be afraid of evil news.His heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.8His heart is established.He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.

9He has dispersed, he has given to the poor.His righteousness endures forever.His horn will be exalted with honor.

GospelMark 12:13-17

From the Gospel according to Mark

13They sent some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him,that they might trap him with words.14When they had come,they asked him, “Teacher,we know that you are honest,and don’t defer to anyone;for you aren’t partial to anyone,but truly teach the way of God.Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?15Shall we give, or shall we not give?”

But he, knowing their hypocrisy,said to them, “Why do you test me?Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”

16They brought it.

He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?”

They said to him, “Caesar’s.”

17Jesus answered them,“Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s,and to God the things that are God’s.”

They marveled greatly at him.

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Sap 7:7-14

Optávi, et datus est mihi sensus: et invocávi, et venit in me spíritus sapiéntiæ: et præpósui illam regnis et sédibus, et divítias nihil esse duxi in comparatióne illíus: nec comparávi illi lápidem pretiósum: quóniam omne aurum in comparatióne illíus arena est exígua, et tamquam lutum æstimábitur argéntum in conspéctu illíus. Super salútem et spéciem diléxi illam, et propósui pro luce habére illam: quóniam inexstinguíbile est lumen illíus. Venérunt autem mihi ómnia bona páriter cum illa, et innumerábilis honéstas per manus illíus, et lætátus sum in ómnibus: quóniam antecedébat me ista sapiéntia, et ignorábam, quóniam horum ómnium mater est. Quam sine fictióne dídici et sine invídia commúnico, et honestátem illíus non abscóndo. Infinítus enim thesáurus est homínibus: quo qui usi sunt, partícipes facti sunt amicítiæ Dei, propter disciplínæ dona commendáti.

Lesson from the book of Wisdom

Wis 7:7-14.

I prayed, and prudence was given me; I pleaded, and the spirit of Wisdom came to me. I preferred her to scepter and throne, and deemed riches nothing in comparison with her. Nor did I liken any priceless gem to her; because all gold, in view of her, is a little sand, and before her, silver is to be accounted mire. Beyond health and comeliness I loved her, and I chose to have her rather than the light, because the splendor of her never yields to sleep. Yet all good things together came to me in her company, and countless riches at her hands; and I rejoiced in them all, because Wisdom is their leader, though I had not known that she is the mother of these. Simply I learned about her, and ungrudgingly do I share - her riches I do not hide away; for to men she is an unfailing treasure; those who gain this treasure win the friendship of God, to Whom the gifts they have from discipline commend them.

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.

Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant.

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:
