First ReadingActs 4:23-31

From the Acts of the Apostles

23Being let go, they came to their own company and reported allthat the chief priests and the elders had said to them.24When they heard it,they lifted up their voice to God with one accord and said,“O Lord, you are God,who made the sky, the earth,the sea, and all that is in them;25who by the mouth of your servant David, said,

‘Why do the nations rage,and the peoples plot a vain thing?26The kings of the earth take a stand,and the rulers plot together,against the Lord, and against his Christ.’

27“For truly, both Herod and Pontius Pilate,with the Gentiles and the people of Israel,were gathered together against your holy servant Jesus,whom you anointed,28to do whatever your handand your counsel foreordained to happen.29Now, Lord, look at their threats,and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,30while you stretch out your hand to heal;and that signsand wonders may be done through the name of your holy Servant Jesus.”

31When they had prayed,the place was shaken where they were gathered together.They were all filled with the Holy Spirit,and they spoke the word of God with boldness.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 2:1-3, 4-7a, 7b-9

1Why do the nations rage,and the peoples plot a vain thing?2The kings of the earth take a stand,and the rulers take counsel together,against the Lord, and against his Anointed, saying,3“Let’s break their bonds apart,and cast their cords from us.”

4He who sits in the heavens will laugh.The Lord will have them in derision.5Then he will speak to them in his anger,and terrify them in his wrath:6“Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”7I will tell of the decree:

7The Lord said to me, “You are my son.Today I have become your father.8Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance,the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.9You shall break them with a rod of iron.You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”

GospelJohn 3:1-8

From the Gospel according to John

1Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus,a ruler of the Jews.2He came to Jesus by night and said to him,“Rabbi, we know that you are a teacherwho has come from God,for no one can do these signs that you do,unless God is with him.”

3Jesus answered him,“Most certainly I tell you,unless one is born anew,he can’t see God’s Kingdom.”

4Nicodemus said to him,“How can a man be born when he is old?Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”

5Jesus answered, “Most certainly I tell you,unless one is born of water and Spirit,he can’t enter into God’s Kingdom.6That which is born of the flesh is flesh.That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.7Don’t marvel that I said to you,‘You must all be born anew.’8The wind blows where it wants to,and you hear its sound,but don’t know where it comes from and where it is going.So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Joánnis Apóstoli

1 Joannes 5:4-10

Caríssimi: Omne, quod natum est ex Deo, vincit mundum: et hæc est victória, quæ vincit mundum, fides nostra. Quis est, qui vincit mundum, nisi qui credit, quóniam Jesus est Fílius Dei? Hic est, qui venit per aquam et sánguinem, Jesus Christus: non in aqua solum, sed in aqua et sánguine. Et Spíritus est, qui testificátur, quóniam Christus est véritas. Quóniam tres sunt, qui testimónium dant in cœlo: Pater, Verbum, et Spíritus Sanctus: et hi tres unum sunt. Et tres sunt, qui testimónium dant in terra: Spíritus, et aqua, et sanguis: et hi tres unum sunt. Si testimónium hóminum accípimus, testimónium Dei majus est: quóniam hoc est testimónium Dei, quod majus est: quóniam testificátus est de Fílio suo. Qui credit in Fílium Dei, habet testimónium Dei in se.

Lesson from the first letter of St John the Apostle

1 John 5:4-10

Dearly beloved, Whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory, which overcometh the world, our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? This is He that came by water and blood, Jesus Christ: not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit which testifieth that Christ is the truth. And there are three who give testimony in heaven: the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that give testimony on earth: the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three are one. If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater: for this is the testimony of God, which is greater, because He hath testified of His Son. He that believeth in the Son of God hath the testimony of God in himself.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem

Joannes 20:19-31

In illo témpore: Cum sero esset die illo, una sabbatórum, et fores essent clausæ, ubi erant discípuli congregáti propter metum Judæórum: venit Jesus, et stetit in médio, et dixit eis: Pax vobis. Et cum hoc dixísset, osténdit eis manus et latus. Gavísi sunt ergo discípuli, viso Dómino. Dixit ergo eis íterum: Pax vobis. Sicut misit me Pater, et ego mitto vos. Hæc cum dixísset, insufflávit, et dixit eis: Accípite Spíritum Sanctum: quorum remiséritis peccáta, remittúntur eis; et quorum retinuéritis, reténta sunt. Thomas autem unus ex duódecim, qui dícitur Dídymus, non erat cum eis, quando venit Jesus. Dixérunt ergo ei álii discípuli: Vídimus Dóminum. Ille autem dixit eis: Nisi vídero in mánibus ejus fixúram clavórum, et mittam dígitum meum in locum clavórum, et mittam manum meam in latus ejus, non credam. Et post dies octo, íterum erant discípuli ejus intus, et Thomas cum eis. Venit Jesus, jánuis clausis, et stetit in médio, et dixit: Pax vobis. Deínde dicit Thomæ: Infer dígitum tuum huc et vide manus meas, et affer manum tuam et mitte in latus meum: et noli esse incrédulus, sed fidélis. Respóndit Thomas et dixit ei: Dóminus meus et Deus meus. Dixit ei Jesus: Quia vidísti me, Thoma, credidísti: beáti, qui non vidérunt, et credidérunt. Multa quidem et ália signa fecit Jesus in conspéctu discipulórum suórum, quæ non sunt scripta in libro hoc. Hæc autem scripta sunt, ut credátis, quia Jesus est Christus, Fílius Dei: et ut credéntes vitam habeátis in nómine ejus.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to John

John 20. 19-31

At that time, when it was late that same day, the first of the week, and the doors were shut, where the disciples were gathered together for fear of the Jews, Jesus came, and stood in the midst and said to them: Peace be to you. And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord. He said therefore to them again: Peace be to you. As the Father hath sent Me, I also send you. When He had said this, He breathed on them, and He said to them: Receive ye the Holy Ghost: whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained. Now Thomas, one of the Twelve, who is called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples therefore said to him: We have seen the Lord. But he said to them: Except I shall see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe. And after eight days, again His disciples were within, and Thomas with them. Jesus cometh, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said: Peace be to you. Then He saith to Thomas: Put in thy finger hither, and see My hands, and bring hither thy hand, and put into My side; and be not faithless, but believing. Thomas answered and said to Him: my Lord and my God. Jesus saith to him: Because thou hast seen Me, Thomas, thou hast believed; blessed are they that have not seen, and have believed. Many other signs also did Jesus in the sight of His disciples, which are not written in this book. But these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that, believing, you may have life in His Name.

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:
