Lectio Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ Sap 7:7-14 Optávi, et datus est mihi sensus: et invocávi, et venit in me spíritus sapiéntiæ: et præpósui illam regnis et sédibus, et divítias nihil esse duxi in comparatióne illíus: nec comparávi illi lápidem pretiósum: quóniam omne aurum in comparatióne illíus arena est exígua, et tamquam lutum æstimábitur argéntum in conspéctu illíus. Super salútem et spéciem diléxi illam, et propósui pro luce habére illam: quóniam inexstinguíbile est lumen illíus. Venérunt autem mihi ómnia bona páriter cum illa, et innumerábilis honéstas per manus illíus, et lætátus sum in ómnibus: quóniam antecedébat me ista sapiéntia, et ignorábam, quóniam horum ómnium mater est. Quam sine fictióne dídici et sine invídia commúnico, et honestátem illíus non abscóndo. Infinítus enim thesáurus est homínibus: quo qui usi sunt, partícipes facti sunt amicítiæ Dei, propter disciplínæ dona commendáti. ℟. Deo grátias. | Lesson Lesson from the book of Wisdom Wis 7:7-14. I prayed, and prudence was given me; I pleaded, and the spirit of Wisdom came to me. I preferred her to scepter and throne, and deemed riches nothing in comparison with her. Nor did I liken any priceless gem to her; because all gold, in view of her, is a little sand, and before her, silver is to be accounted mire. Beyond health and comeliness I loved her, and I chose to have her rather than the light, because the splendor of her never yields to sleep. Yet all good things together came to me in her company, and countless riches at her hands; and I rejoiced in them all, because Wisdom is their leader, though I had not known that she is the mother of these. Simply I learned about her, and ungrudgingly do I share – her riches I do not hide away; for to men she is an unfailing treasure; those who gain this treasure win the friendship of God, to Whom the gifts they have from discipline commend them. ℟. Thanks be to God. |
Graduale Ps 36:30-31 Os iusti meditábitur sapiéntiam, et lingua eius loquétur iudícium. ℣. Lex Dei eius in corde ipsíus: et non supplantabúntur gressus eius. Tractus Ps 111:1-3 Beátus vir, qui timet Dóminum: in mandátis eius cupit nimis. ℣. Potens in terra erit semen eius: generátio rectórum benedicétur. ℣. Glória et divítiæ in domo eius: et iustítia eius manet in sǽculum sǽculi. | Gradual Ps 36:30-31 The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom : ℣. And his tongue shall speak judgment. The law of his God is in his heart, and his steps shall not be supplanted. Ps 111:1-3 Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments. ℣. His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed. ℣. Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever. |
Evangelium Sequéntia + sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum ℟. Glória tibi, Dómine. Matt 5:13-19 In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus 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, iota 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. ℟. Laus tibi, Christe. S. Per Evangélica dicta, deleántur nostra delícta. | Gospel Continuation + of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew ℟. Glory be to Thee, O Lord. 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. ℟. Praise be to Thee, O Christ. S. By the words of the Gospel may our sins be blotted out. |
