First ReadingActs 13:44-52

From the Acts of the Apostles

44The next Sabbath, almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.45But when the Jews saw the multitudes,they were filled with jealousy,and contradicted the thingswhich were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.

46Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly,and said, “It was necessarythat God’s word should be spoken to you first.Since indeed you thrust it from yourselves,and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life,behold, we turn to the Gentiles.47For so has the Lord commanded us, saying,

‘I have set you as a light for the Gentiles,that you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”

48As the Gentiles heard this,they were glad and glorified the word of God.As many as were appointed to eternal life believed.49The Lord’s word was spread abroad throughout all the region.50But the Jews stirred up the devoutand prominent women and the chief men of the city,and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas,and threw them out of their borders.51But they shook off the dust of their feet against them,and came to Iconium.52The disciples were filled with joyand with the Holy Spirit.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 98:1, 2-3ab, 3cd-4

1Sing to the Lord a new song,for he has done marvelous things!His right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.

2The Lord has made known his salvation.He has openly shown his righteousness in the sight of the nations.3He has remembered his loving kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel.

3All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.4Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!Burst out and sing for joy, yes, sing praises!

GospelJohn 14:7-14

From the Gospel according to John

7If you had known me, you would have known my Father also.From now on, you know him and have seen him.”

8Philip said to him,“Lord, show us the Father,and that will be enough for us.”

9Jesus said to him,“Have I been with you such a long time,and do you not know me, Philip?He who has seen me has seen the Father.How do you say, ‘Show us the Father’?10Don’t you believe that I am in the Father,and the Father in me?The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself;but the Father who lives in me does his works.11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me;or else believe me for the very works’ sake.12Most certainly I tell you,he who believes in me,the works that I do, he will do also;and he will do greater works than these,because I am going to my Father.13Whatever you will ask in my name,I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.14If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.

Eccli 24:14-16

Ab inítio et ante sǽcula creáta sum, et usque ad futúrum sǽculum non désinam, et in habitatióne sancta coram ipso ministrávi.

Ecclus 24:14-16

Before all ages, in the beginning, He created me, and through all ages I shall not cease to be. In the holy Tent I ministered before Him, and in Sion I fixed my abode. Thus in the chosen city He has given me rest, in Jerusalem is my domain.

Joannes 19:25-27

In illo témpore: Stabant juxta Crucem Jesu Mater ejus, et soror Matris ejus, María Cléophæ, et María Magdaléne.

Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen. When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son. After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own.

PrefacePrefatio

de Beata Maria Virgine

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Et te in veneratione beátæ Maríæ semper Vírginis collaudáre, benedícere et prædicáre. Quæ et Unigénitum tuum Sancti Spíritus obumbratióne concépit: et, virginitátis glória permanénte, lumen ætérnum mundo effúdit, 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 jubeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessióne dicéntes:

Blessed Virgin

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 praise and bless, and proclaim Thee, in the veneration of the Blessed Mary, ever-Virgin: Who also conceived Thine only-begotten Son by the overshadowing of the Holy Ghost, and the glory of her virginity still abiding, gave forth to the world the everlasting Light, 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 these we entreat Thee that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted while we say with lowly praise:

Per Dominum…

Having received the aids conducive to our salvation, O Lord, we beseech You, grant that we may everywhere be protected by the patronage of blessed Mary, ever Virgin, in veneration of whom we have made these offerings to Your Majesty.
