EPISTLE II Tim 2.1-7
Dearly beloved: be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus: And the things which thou hast heard of me by many witnesses, the same commend to faithful men, who shall be fit to teach others also. Labour as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No man, being a soldier to God, entangleth himself with secular businesses; that he may please him to whom he hath engaged himself. For he also that striveth for the mastery, is not crowned, except he strive lawfully. The husbandman, that laboureth, must first partake of the fruits. Understand what I say: for the Lord will give thee in all things understanding.
GRADUAL Ps. 118.52-53.
I remembered, O Lord, thy judgments of old, and I was comforted; a fainting hath taken hold of me because of the wicked that forsake thy law. V. Ps. 39.11. I have not hid thy justice within my heart: I have declared thy truth and thy salvation.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Ecclus. 49.3-4. He was directed by God unto the repentance of the nation, and he took away the abomination of wickedness: and he directed his heart towards the Lord, and in the days of sinners he strengthened godliness. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke (10.1-9)
At that time, Jesus appointed also other seventy-two: and he sent them two and two before his face into every city and place whither he himself was to come. And he said to them: The harvest indeed is great, but the labourers are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send labourers into his harvest. Go: Behold I send you as lambs among wolves. Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes; and salute no man by the way. Into whatsoever house you enter, first say: Peace be to this house. And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him; but if not, it shall return to you. And in the same house, remain, eating and drinking such things as they have: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Remove not from house to house. And into what city soever you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you. And heal the sick that are therein, and say to them: The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
The Creed is said.
