First ReadingActs 6:8-15

From the Acts of the Apostles

8Stephen, full of faith and power,performed great wonders and signs among the people.9But some of thosewho were of the synagogue called “The Libertines”,and of the Cyrenians,of the Alexandrians,and of those of Cilicia and Asia arose,disputing with Stephen.10They weren’t able to withstand the wisdomand the Spirit by which he spoke.11Then they secretly induced men to say,“We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God.”12They stirred up the people,the elders, and the scribes,and came against him and seized him,then brought him in to the council,13and set up false witnesses who said,“This man never stops speaking blasphemous words against this holy place and the law.14For we have heard him saythat this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place,and will change the customs which Moses delivered to us.”15All who sat in the council,fastening their eyes on him,saw his face like it was the face of an angel.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 119:23-24, 26-27, 29-30

23Though princes sit and slander me,your servant will meditate on your statutes.24Indeed your statutes are my delight,and my counselors.

26I declared my ways, and you answered me.Teach me your statutes.27Let me understand the teaching of your precepts!Then I will meditate on your wondrous works.

29Keep me from the way of deceit.Grant me your law graciously!30I have chosen the way of truth.I have set your ordinances before me.

GospelJohn 6:22-29

From the Gospel according to John

22On the next day, the multitudethat stood on the other side of the sea sawthat there was no other boat there,except the one in which his disciples had embarked,and that Jesus hadn’t entered with his disciples into the boat,but his disciples had gone away alone.23However, boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.24When the multitude therefore saw that Jesus wasn’t there,nor his disciples,they themselves got into the boatsand came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.25When they found him on the other side of the sea,they asked him, “Rabbi,when did you come here?”

26Jesus answered them,“Most certainly I tell you,you seek me, not because you saw signs,but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.27Don’t work for the food which perishes,but for the food which remains to eternal life,which the Son of Man will give to you.For God the Father has sealed him.”

28They said therefore to him,“What must we do, that we may work the works of God?”

29Jesus answered them,“This is the work of God,that you believe in him whom he has sent.”

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Colossénses.

Col. 3:14-15, 17, 23-24

Fratres: Caritátem habéte, quod est vínculum perfectiónis, et pax Christi exsúltet in córdibus vestris, in qua et vocáti estis in uno córpore, et grati estóte. Omne quodcúmque fácitis in verbo aut in ópere, ómnia in nómine Dómini Jesu Christi, grátias agéntes Deo et Patri per ipsum. Quodcúmque fácitis, ex ánimo operámini sicut Dómino, et non homínibus, sciéntes quod a Dómino accipiétis retributiónem hereditátis. Dómino Christo servíte.

Col. 3:14-15, 17, 23-24

Brethren: Have charity, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of Christ rejoice in your hearts, wherein also you are called in one body: and be ye thankful. All whatsoever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by Him. Whatsoever you do, do it from the heart, as to the Lord, and not to men: knowing that you shall receive of the Lord the reward of inheritance. Serve ye the Lord Christ.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

Matt 13:54-58

In illo témpore: Véniens Jesus in pátriam suam, docébat eos in synagógis eórum, ita ut miraréntur et dícerent: Unde huic sapiéntia hæc et virtútes? Nonne hic est fabri fílius? Nonne mater ejus dícitur María, et fratres ejus Jacóbus et Joseph et Simon et Judas? Et soróres ejus nonne omnes apud nos sunt? Unde ergo huic ómnia ista? Et scandalizabántur in eo. Jesus autem dixit eis: Non est prophéta sine honóre nisi in pátria sua et in domo sua. Et non fecit ibi virtútes multas propter incredulitátem illórum.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 13:54-58

At that time: Jesus coming into His country, He taught them in their synagogues, so that they wondered and said: How came this Man by this wisdom and miracles? Is not this the carpenter's Son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brethren James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Jude: and His sisters, are they not all with us? Whence therefore hath He all these things? And they were scandalized in His regard. But Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. And He wrought not many miracles there, because of their unbelief.

PrefacePrefatio

de S. Joseph

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Et te in Solemnitáte beáti Joseph débitis magnificáre præcóniis, benedícere et prædicáre. Qui et vir justus, a te Deíparæ Vírgini Sponsus est datus: et fidélis servus ac prudens, super Famíliam tuam est constitútus: ut Unigénitum tuum, Sancti Spíritus obumbratióne concéptum, paterna vice custodíret, Jesum Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces ut admítti júbeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessióne dicéntes:

St. Joseph

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God: and that we should magnify with due praises, bless and proclaim Thee on the solemnity of blessed Joseph; who, being a just man, was given by Thee as a Spouse to the Virgin Mother of God, and, as a faithful and prudent servant was set over Thy Family, that, with fatherly care, he might guard Thine only-begotten Son, conceived by the overshadowing of the Holy Ghost, even Jesus Christ, our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominations worship it, and the Powers stand in awe. The heavens and the heavenly hosts together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it. Together with them we entreat Thee that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted, while we say with lowly praise:
