Optional memorial: Saint Paul of the Cross, Priest

First ReadingEphesians 2:12-22

From the Letter of Paul to the Ephesians

12that you were at that time separate from Christ,alienated from the commonwealth of Israel,and strangers from the covenants of the promise,having no hope and without God in the world.13But now in Christ Jesus youwho once were far off are made near in the blood of Christ.14For he is our peace,who made both one,and broke down the middle wall of separation,15having abolished in his flesh the hostility,the law of commandments contained in ordinances,that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace,16and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross,having killed the hostility through it.17He came and preached peace to youwho were far off and to those who were near.18For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.19So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners,but you are fellow citizens with the saintsand of the household of God,20being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets,Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;21in whom the whole building,fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;22in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 85:9ab-10, 11-12, 13-14

9I will hear what God, the Lord, will speak,for he will speak peace to his people, his saints;but let them not turn again to folly.10Surely his salvation is near those who fear him,that glory may dwell in our land.

11Mercy and truth meet together.Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.12Truth springs out of the earth.Righteousness has looked down from heaven.

13Yes, the Lord will give that which is good.Our land will yield its increase.14Righteousness goes before him,and prepares the way for his steps.

GospelLuke 12:35-38

From the Gospel according to Luke

35“Let your waist be dressed and your lamps burning.36Be like men watching for their lordwhen he returns from the wedding feast,that when he comes and knocks,they may immediately open to him.37Blessed are those servantswhom the lord will find watching when he comes.Most certainly I tell you that he will dress himself,make them recline,and will come and serve them.38They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch and finds them so.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Jacóbi Apóstoli

Jac 2:12-17

Carissimi: Sic loquímini, et sic fácite sicut per legem libertátis incipiéntes judicári. Judícium enim sine misericórdia illi, qui non fecit misericórdiam: superexáltat autem misericórdia judícium. Quid próderit, fratres mei, si fidem quis dicat se habére, ópera autem non hábeat? Numquid poterit fides salváre eum? Si autem frater et soror nudi sint, et indígeant victu quotidiáno, dicat autem áliquis ex vobis illis: Ite in pace, calefacímini et saturámini: non dedéritis autem eis, quæ necessária sunt córpori, quid próderit? Sic et fides, si non hábeat ópera, mórtua est in semetípsa.

Lesson from the letter of St James the Apostle

James 2:12-17

Dearly beloved: So speak and so act as men about to be judged by the law of liberty. For judgment is without mercy to him who has not shown mercy; but mercy triumphs over judgment. What will it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith, but does not have works? Can the faith save him? And if a brother or a sister be naked and in want of daily food, and one of you say to them, Go in peace, be warmed and filled, yet you do not give them what is necessary for the body, what does it profit? So faith too, unless it has works, is dead in itself.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Luc 12:35-40

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Sint lumbi vestri præcíncti, et lucernæ ardéntes in mánibus vestris, et vos símiles homínibus exspectántibus dóminum suum, quando revertátur a núptiis: ut, cum vénerit et pulsáverit, conféstim apériant ei. ¶ Beáti servi illi, quos, cum vénerit dóminus, invénerit vigilántes: amen, dico vobis, quod præcínget se, et fáciet illos discúmbere, et tránsiens ministrábit illis. Et si vénerit in secúnda vigília, et si in tértia vigília vénerit, et ita invénerit, beáti sunt servi illi. Hoc autem scitóte, quóniam, si sciret paterfamílias, qua hora fur veníret, vigiláret útique, et non síneret pérfodi domum suam. Et vos estóte paráti, quia, qua hora non putátis, Fílius hóminis véniet.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luke 12:35-40

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, Let your loins be girt about and your lamps burning, and you yourselves like men waiting for their master’s return from the wedding; so that when he comes and knocks, they may straight-way open to him. Blessed are those servants whom the master, on his return, shall find watching. Amen I say to you, he will gird himself, and will make them recline at table, and will come and serve them. And if he comes in the second watch, and if in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those servants! But of this be assured, that if the householder had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would certainly have watched, and not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, because at an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man is coming.

Job 29:14-16

Justítia indútus sum, et vestívi me, sicut vestiménto et diadémate, judício meo. Oculus fui cæco et pes claudo: pater eram páuperum.

Job 29:14-16

I wore my honesty like a garment; justice was my robe and my turban. I was eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame was I; I was a father to the needy.

Communis

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. 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 jubeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessione dicéntes:

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:
