First ReadingIsaiah 40:1-11

From the Book of Isaiah

1“Comfort, comfort my people,” says your God.2“Speak comfortably to Jerusalem,and call out to her that her warfare is accomplished,that her iniquity is pardoned,that she has received of the Lord’s hand double for all her sins.”

3The voice of one who calls out,“Prepare the way of the Lord in the wilderness!Make a level highway in the desert for our God.4Every valley shall be exalted,and every mountain and hill shall be made low.The uneven shall be made level,and the rough places a plain.5The Lord’s glory shall be revealed,and all flesh shall see it together;for the mouth of the Lord has spoken it.”6The voice of one saying, “Cry out!”One said, “What shall I cry?”“All flesh is like grass,and all its glory is like the flower of the field.7The grass withers,the flower fades,because the Lord’s breath blows on it.Surely the people are like grass.8The grass withers,the flower fades;but the word of our God stands forever.”9You who tell good news to Zion, go up on a high mountain.You who tell good news to Jerusalem, lift up your voice with strength!Lift it up! Don’t be afraid!Say to the cities of Judah, “Behold, your God!”10Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a mighty one,and his arm will rule for him.Behold, his reward is with him,and his recompense before him.11He will feed his flock like a shepherd.He will gather the lambs in his arm,and carry them in his bosom.He will gently lead those who have their young.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 96:1-2, 3 and 10ac, 11-12, 13

1Sing to the Lord a new song!Sing to the Lord, all the earth.2Sing to the Lord!Bless his name!Proclaim his salvation from day to day!

3Declare his glory among the nations,his marvelous works among all the peoples.10Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.”The world is also established.It can’t be moved.He will judge the peoples with equity.

11Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice.Let the sea roar, and its fullness!12Let the field and all that is in it exult!Then all the trees of the woods shall sing for joy

13before the Lord; for he comes,for he comes to judge the earth.He will judge the world with righteousness,the peoples with his truth.

GospelMatthew 18:12-14

From the Gospel according to Matthew

12“What do you think?If a man has one hundred sheep,and one of them goes astray,doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine,go to the mountains,and seek that which has gone astray?13If he finds it, most certainly I tell you,he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-ninewhich have not gone astray.14Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaventhat one of these little ones should perish.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Timótheum

2 Tim 4:1-8

Caríssime: Testíficor coram Deo, et Jesu Christo, qui judicatúrus est vivos et mórtuos, per advéntum ipsíus et regnum ejus: prǽdica verbum, insta opportúne, importune: árgue, óbsecra, íncrepa in omni patiéntia, et doctrína. Erit enim tempus, cum sanam doctrínam non sustinébunt, sed ad sua desidéria, coacervábunt sibi magistros, pruriéntes áuribus, et a veritáte quidem audítum avértent, ad fábulas autem converténtur. Tu vero vígila, in ómnibus labóra, opus fac Evangelístæ, ministérium tuum imple. Sóbrius esto. Ego enim jam delíbor, et tempus resolutiónis meæ instat. Bonum certámen certávi, cursum consummávi, fidem servávi. In réliquo repósita est mihi coróna justítiæ, quam reddet mihi Dóminus in illa die, justus judex: non solum autem mihi, sed et iis, qui díligunt advéntum ejus.

Lesson from the second letter of St Paul the Apostle to Timothy

2 Tim 4:1-8

Dearly beloved: I charge thee, before God and Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead, by his coming, and his kingdom: Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine. For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but, according to their own desires, they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears: And will indeed turn away their hearing from the truth, but will be turned unto fables. But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thy ministry. Be sober. For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.

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.

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:
