EPISTLE II Tim. 3.14-17; 4.1-5.

Dearly beloved: Continue thou in those things which thou hast learned, and which have been committed to thee: knowing of whom thou hast learned them; And because from thy infancy thou hast known the holy scriptures, which can instruct thee to salvation, by the faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture, inspired of God, is profitable to teach, to reprove, to correct, to instruct in justice, That the man of God may be perfect, furnished to every good work. 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.

GRADUAL Ps. 121.8.

For my brethren's and my neighbors' sake I spoke peace concerning thee. V. Ps. 36.37. Keep innocence, and behold equity; for to a man who loveth peace there are things that remain over.

Alleluia, alleluia. V. Ecclus. 6.35. Stand the multitude of the prudent priest, and from thy heart join thyself to their wisdom, that thou mayest hear every discourse of God. Alleluia.

+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew (10.28-33)

At that time, Jesus said to his disciples: Fear ye not them that kill the body, and are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him that can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: better are you than many sparrows. Every one therefore that shall confess me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.

OFFERTORY Ecclus. 22.44.

My doctrine I shall make to shine for all like the dawn at morn, and will declare it afar off.

SECRET

O God, who sufferest not the nations who believe in thee to be overwhelmed by any terror: vouchsafe to receive the prayers and oblations of thy people that of thy mercy thou wouldst grant peace, and make safe the borders of Christendom against every enemy. Through.

EPISTLE Acts 3.1-10

In those days, Peter and John went up into the temple at the ninth hour of prayer. And a certain man who was lame from his mother's womb, was carried: whom they laid every day at the gate of the temple, which is called Beautiful, that he might ask alms of them that went into the temple. He, when he had seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked to receive an alms. But Peter with John fastening his eyes upon him, said: Look upon us. But he looked earnestly upon them, hoping that he should receive something of them. But Peter said: Silver and gold I have none; but what I have, I give thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, arise, and walk. And taking him by the right hand, he lifted him up, and forthwith his feet and soles received strength. And he leaping up, stood, and walked, and went in with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God. And all the people saw him walking and praising God. And they knew him, that it was he who sat begging alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened to him.

GRADUAL Ps. 18.5,2

Their sound went forth into all the earth: and their words to the end of the world. The heavens show forth the glory of God: and the firmament declareth the works of his hands.

+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John (21.15-19)

At that time, Jesus said to Simon Peter: Simon, son of John, lovest thou me more then these? He saith to him: Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him: Feed my lambs. He saith to him again: Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? He saith to him: Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him: Feed my lambs. He said to him the third time: Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved, because he had said to him the third time: Lovest thou me? And he said to him: Lord, thou knowest all things: thou knowest that I love thee. He said to him: Feed my sheep. Amen, amen I say to thee, when thou wast younger, thou didst gird thyself, and didst walk where thou wouldst. But when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and lead thee whither thou wouldst not. And this he said, signifying by what death he should glorify God.

OFFERTORY Ps. 138.17

Thy friends, O God, are exceedingly honorable; their principality is exceedingly strengthened.
