First ReadingActs 18:9-18

From the Acts of the Apostles

9The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision,“Don’t be afraid, but speak and don’t be silent;10for I am with you,and no one will attack you to harm you,for I have many people in this city.”

11He lived there a year and six months,teaching the word of God among them.12But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia,the Jews with one accord rose up against Pauland brought him before the judgment seat,13saying, “This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”

14But when Paul was about to open his mouth,Gallio said to the Jews,“If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime,you Jews, it would be reasonablethat I should bear with you;15but if they are questions about wordsand names and your own law,look to it yourselves.For I don’t want to be a judge of these matters.”16So he drove them from the judgment seat.

17Then all the Greeks seized Sosthenes,the ruler of the synagogue,and beat him before the judgment seat.Gallio didn’t care about any of these things.

18Paul, having stayed after this many more days,took his leave of the brothers,and sailed from there for Syria,together with Priscilla and Aquila.He shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 47:2-3, 4-5, 6-7

2Oh clap your hands, all you nations.Shout to God with the voice of triumph!3For the Lord Most High is awesome.He is a great King over all the earth.

4He subdues nations under us,and peoples under our feet.5He chooses our inheritance for us,the glory of Jacob whom he loved.

6God has gone up with a shout,the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.7Sing praises to God! Sing praises!Sing praises to our King! Sing praises!

GospelJohn 16:20-23

From the Gospel according to John

20Most certainly I tell you that you will weep and lament,but the world will rejoice.You will be sorrowful,but your sorrow will be turned into joy.21A woman, when she gives birth,has sorrow because her time has come.But when she has delivered the child,she doesn’t remember the anguish any more,for the joy that a human being is born into the world.22Therefore you now have sorrow,but I will see you again,and your heart will rejoice,and no one will take your joy away from you.

23“In that day you will ask me no questions.Most certainly I tell you,whatever you may ask of the Father in my name,he will give it to you.

EpistleLectio

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Sap 5:1-5

Stabunt justi in magna constántia advérsus eos, qui se angustiavérunt et qui abstulérunt labóres eórum. Vidéntes turbabúntur timore horríbili, et mirabúntur in subitatióne insperátæ salútis, dicéntes intra se, pœniténtiam agéntes, et præ angústia spíritus geméntes: Hi sunt, quos habúimus aliquándo in derísum et in similitúdinem impropérii. Nos insensáti vitam illórum æstimabámus insániam, et finem illórum sine honóre: ecce, quómodo computáti sunt inter fílios Dei, et inter Sanctos sors illórum est.

Lesson from the book of Wisdom

Wis. 5:1-5

The just shall stand with great assurance before their oppressors who set at nought their labors. Seeing this, these shall be shaken with dreadful fear, and amazed at the suddenness of the unlooked-for salvation. They shall say among themselves, rueful and groaning through anguish of spirit: These are they whom once we held as a laughingstock and as a type for mockery, fools that we were! Their life we deemed madness, and their death dishonored. See how they are accounted among the sons of God; how their lot is with the Saints!

Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem

Joannes 4:46-53

In illo témpore: Erat quidam régulus, cujus fílius infirmabátur Caphárnaum. Hic cum audísset, quia Jesus adveníret a Judǽa in Galilǽam, ábiit ad eum, et rogábat eum, ut descénderet et sanáret fílium ejus: incipiébat enim mori. Dixit ergo Jesus ad eum: Nisi signa et prodígia vidéritis, non créditis. Dicit ad eum régulus: Dómine, descénde, priúsquam moriátur fílius meus. Dicit ei Jesus: Vade, fílius tuus vivit. Crédidit homo sermóni, quem dixit ei Jesus, et ibat. Jam autem eo descendénte, servi occurrérunt ei et nuntiavérunt, dicéntes, quia fílius ejus víveret. Interrogábat ergo horam ab eis, in qua mélius habúerit. Et dixérunt ei: Quia heri hora séptima relíquit eum febris. Cognóvit ergo pater, quia illa hora erat, in qua dixit ei Jesus: Fílius tuus vivit: et crédidit ipse et domus ejus tota.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to John

John 4:46-53

At that time, there was a certain royal official whose son was lying sick at Capharnaum. When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and besought Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. Jesus therefore said to him, Unless you see signs and wonders, you do not believe. The royal official said to Him, Sir, come down before my child dies. Jesus said to him, Go your way, your son lives. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and departed. But even as he was now going down, his servants met him and brought word saying that his son lived. He asked of them therefore the hour in which he had got better. And they told him, Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him. The father knew then that it was at that very hour in which Jesus had said to him, Your son lives. And he himself believed, and his whole household.

PrefacePrefatio

de Ascensione Domini

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. Qui post resurrectiónem suam ómnibus discípulis suis maniféstus appáruit et, ipsis cernéntibus, est elevátus in cælum, ut nos divinitátis suæ tribúeret esse partícipes. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:

Ascension

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: through Christ our Lord. Who, after His Resurrection, appeared openly to all His disciples, and, while they looked on, was taken up into heaven, that He might grant unto us to be sharers in His own divinity. 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:
