First ReadingGenesis 17:1, 9-10, 15-22

From the Book of Genesis

1When Abram was ninety-nine years old,the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him,“I am God Almighty.Walk before me and be blameless.

verses 2–8 are not read9God said to Abraham,“As for you, you shall keep my covenant,you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.10This is my covenant,which you shall keep,between me and you and your offspring after you.Every male among you shall be circumcised.

verses 11–14 are not read15God said to Abraham,“As for Sarai your wife,you shall not call her name Sarai,but her name shall be Sarah.16I will bless her,and moreover I will give you a son by her.Yes, I will bless her,and she will be a mother of nations.Kings of peoples will come from her.”

17Then Abraham fell on his face,and laughed, and said in his heart,“Will a child be born to him who is one hundred years old?Will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?”18Abraham said to God,“Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”

19God said, “No, but Sarah, your wife, will bear you a son.You shall call his name Isaac.I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his offspring after him.20As for Ishmael, I have heard you.Behold, I have blessed him,and will make him fruitful,and will multiply him exceedingly.He will become the father of twelve princes,and I will make him a great nation.21But I will establish my covenant with Isaac,whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”

22When he finished talking with him,God went up from Abraham.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 128:1-2, 3, 4-5

1Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord,who walks in his ways.2For you will eat the labor of your hands.You will be happy, and it will be well with you.

3Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house,your children like olive shoots around your table.

4Behold, this is how the man who fears the Lord is blessed.5May the Lord bless you out of Zion,and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

GospelMatthew 8:1-4

From the Gospel according to Matthew

1When he came down from the mountain,great multitudes followed him.2Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him,saying, “Lord, if you want to,you can make me clean.”

3Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him,saying, “I want to.Be made clean.”Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.4Jesus said to him, “See that you tell nobody;but go, show yourself to the priest,and offer the gift that Moses commanded,as a testimony to them.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio Isaíæ Prophétæ

Isa 49:1-3; 49:5-7

Audíte, ínsulæ, et atténdite, pópuli, de longe: Dóminus ab útero vocavit me, de ventre matris meæ recordátus est nóminis mei. Et pósuit os meum quasi gládium acútum: in umbra manus suæ protéxit me, et pósuit me sicut sagíttam eléctam: in pháretra sua abscóndit me. Et dixit mihi: Servus meus es tu, Israël, quia in te gloriábor. Et nunc dicit Dóminus, formans me ex útero servum sibi: Ecce, dedi te in lucem géntium, ut sis salus mea usque ad extrémum terræ. Reges vidébunt, et consúrgent príncipes, et adorábunt propter Dominum et sanctum Israël, qui elégit te.

Lesson from the book of Isaias

Isa 49:1-3, 5-7.

Hear me, O coastlands, listen, O distant peoples. The Lord called me from birth, from my mother’s womb He gave me my name. He made of me a sharp-edged sword and concealed me in the shadow of His arm. He made me a polished arrow, in His quiver He hid me. You are My servant, He said to me, Israel, through whom I show My glory. And now says the Lord Who formed me as His servant from the womb, I will make you a light to the nations, that My salvation may reach to the ends of the earth. When kings shall see you, they shall stand up, and princes shall prostrate themselves because of the Lord, the Holy One of Israel Who has chosen you.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 1:57-68

Elísabeth implétum est tempus pariéndi, et péperit fílium. Et audiérunt vicíni et cognáti ejus, quia magnificávit Dóminus misericórdiam suam cum illa, et congratulabántur ei. Et factum est in die octávo, venérunt circumcídere púerum, et vocábant eum nómine patris sui Zacharíam. Et respóndens mater ejus, dixit: Nequáquam, sed vocábitur Joánnes. Et dixérunt ad illam: Quia nemo est in cognatióne tua, qui vocétur hoc nómine. Innuébant autem patri ejus, quem vellet vocári eum. Et póstulans pugillárem, scripsit, dicens: Joánnes est nomen ejus. Et miráti sunt univérsi. Apértum est autem illico os ejus et lingua ejus, et loquebátur benedícens Deum. Et factus est timor super omnes vicínos eórum: et super ómnia montána Judææ divulgabántur ómnia verba hæc: et posuérunt omnes, qui audíerant in corde suo, dicéntes: Quis, putas, puer iste erit? Etenim manus Dómini erat cum illo. Et Zacharías, pater ejus, repletus est Spíritu Sancto, et prophetávit, dicens: Benedíctus Dóminus, Deus Israël, quia visitávit et fecit redemptiónem plebis suæ.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 1:57-68

Elizabeth’s time was fulfilled that she should be delivered, and she brought forth a son. And her neighbors and kinsfolk heard that the Lord had magnified His mercy toward her, and they rejoiced with her. And it came to pass on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child, and they were going to call him by his father’s name, Zachary. And his mother answered and said, Not so, but he shall be called John. And they said to her, There is none of your kindred that is called by this name. And they kept inquiring by signs of his father what he would have him called. And asking for a writing-tablet he wrote the words, John is his name. And they all marveled. And immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he began to speak, blessing God. And fear came on all their neighbors; and all these things were spoken abroad in all the hill country of Judea. And all who heard them laid them up in their heart, saying, What then will this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him. And Zachary his father was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying, Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and wrought redemption for His people.

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.

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:
