First ReadingActs 14:19-28

From the Acts of the Apostles

19But some Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there,and having persuaded the multitudes,they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city,supposing that he was dead.

20But as the disciples stood around him,he rose up, and entered into the city.On the next day he went out with Barnabas to Derbe.

21When they had preached the Good News tothat city and had made many disciples,they returned to Lystra,Iconium, and Antioch,22strengthening the souls of the disciples,exhorting them to continue in the faith,and that through many afflictions we must enter into God’s Kingdom.23When they had appointed elders for them in every assembly,and had prayed with fasting,they commended them to the Lord on whom they had believed.

24They passed through Pisidia and came to Pamphylia.25When they had spoken the word in Perga,they went down to Attalia.26From there they sailed to Antioch,from where they had been committed to the grace of God for the workwhich they had fulfilled.27When they had arrivedand had gathered the assembly together,they reported all the things that God had done with them,and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.28They stayed there with the disciples for a long time.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 145:10-11, 12-13ab, 21

10All your works will give thanks to you, Lord.Your saints will extol you.11They will speak of the glory of your kingdom,and talk about your power,

12to make known to the sons of men his mighty acts,the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.13Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom.Your dominion endures throughout all generations.The Lord is faithful in all his words,and loving in all his deeds.

21My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord.Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.

GospelJohn 14:27-31a

From the Gospel according to John

27Peace I leave with you.My peace I give to you;not as the world gives, I give to you.Don’t let your heart be troubled,neither let it be fearful.28You heard how I told you,‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’If you loved me, you would have rejoicedbecause I said ‘I am going to my Father;’for the Father is greater than I.29Now I have told you before it happens sothat when it happens, you may believe.30I will no more speak much with you,for the prince of the world comes,and he has nothing in me.31But that the world may know that I love the Father,and as the Father commanded me, even so I do.Arise, let’s go from here.

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Eccli 39:6-14

Justus cor suum tradet ad vigilándum dilúculo ad Dóminum, qui fecit illum, et in conspéctu Altíssimi deprecábitur. Apériet os suum in oratióne, et pro delíctis suis deprecábitur. Si enim Dóminus magnus volúerit, spíritu intellegéntias replébit illum: et ipse tamquam imbres mittet elóquia sapiéntiæ suæ, et in oratióne confitébitur Dómino: et ipse díriget consílium ejus et disciplínam, et in abscónditis suis consiliábitur. Ipse palam fáciet disciplínam doctrínæ suæ, et in lege testaménti Dómini gloriábitur. Collaudábunt multi sapiéntiam ejus, et usque in sǽculum non delébitur. Non recédet memória ejus, et nomen ejus requirétur a generatióne in generatiónem. Sapiéntiam ejus enarrábunt gentes, et laudem ejus enuntiábit ecclésia.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Ecclus 39:6-14

The just man will give his heart to resort early to the Lord his Maker, and he will pray in the sight of the Most High. He will open his mouth in prayer, and will ask pardon for his sins. Then, if it pleases the Lord Almighty, He will fill him with the spirit of understanding; and he will pour forth his words of wisdom as showers, and in prayer give thanks to the Lord, Who will direct his knowledge and his counsel, as he meditates upon His mysteries. He will show the wisdom of what he has learned and glory in the Law of the Lord’s covenant. Many will praise his understanding; his fame can never be effaced; unfading will be his memory, through all generations his name will live; peoples will speak of his wisdom, the assembly will sing his praises.

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.

PrefacePrefatio

Paschalis

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre: Te quidem, Dómine, omni témpore, sed in hoc potíssimum gloriósius prædicáre, cum Pascha nostrum immolátus est Christus. Ipse enim verus est Agnus, qui ábstulit peccáta mundi. Qui mortem nostram moriéndo destrúxit et vitam resurgéndo reparávit. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:

Easter

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, at all times to praise Thee, O Lord, but more gloriously especially in this season when Christ our Pasch was sacrificed. For He is the Lamb Who hath taken away the sins of the world: Who by dying hath destroyed our death: and by rising again hath restored us to life. And therefore with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
