LESSON Acts 13.16, 26-33.

In those days, Then Paul rising up and with his hand bespeaking silence, said: Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear God: to you the word of this salvation is sent. For they that inhabited Jerusalem and the rulers thereof, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath, judging him, have fulfilled them. And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate that they might kill him. And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, taking him down from the tree, they laid him in a sepulchre. But God raised him up from the dead the third day. Who was seen for many days by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who to this present are his witnesses to the people. And we declare unto you that the promise which was made to our fathers, This same God hath fulfilled to our children, raising up Jesus Christ Our Lord.

GRADUAL Ps. 117.24; Ps. 106.2

This is the day that the Lord hath made; let us be glad and rejoice in it. V. Let those who have been redeemed by the Lord now speak, those whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy and gathered together from all lands.

Alleluia, alleluia. V. The Lord, who was suspended upon the Cross for us, is risen from the tomb.

SEQUENCE – Victimae Paschali
As on Easter Sunday

+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke (24.36-47.)

At that time, Now, whilst they were speaking these things, Jesus stood in the midst of them and saith to them: Peace be unto you. It is I: Fear not. But they being troubled and frightened, supposed that they saw a spirit. And he said to them: Why are you troubled, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? See my hands and feet, that it is I myself. Handle, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as you see me to have. And when he had said this, he shewed them his hands and feet. But while they yet believed not and wondered for joy, he said: Have you here any thing to eat? And they offered him a piece of a broiled fish and a honeycomb. And when he had eaten before them, taking the remains, he gave to them. And he said to them: These are the words which I spoke to you while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled which are written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms, concerning me. Then he opened their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures. And he said to them: Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer and to rise again from the dead, the third day: And that penance and remission of sins should be preached in his Name, unto all nations.

The Creed is said.
