EPISTLE I Thess. 2.2-8
Brethren: We had confidence in our God, to speak unto you the gospel of God in much carefulness. For our exhortation was not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deceit: But as we were approved by God that the gospel should be committed to us: even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God, who proveth our hearts. For neither have we used, at any time, the speech of flattery, as you know; nor taken an occasion of covetousness, God is witness: Nor sought we glory of men, neither of you, nor of others. Whereas we might have been burdensome to you, as the apostles of Christ: but we became little ones in the midst of you, as if a nurse should cherish her children: So desirous of you, we would gladly impart unto you not only the gospel of God, but also our own souls: because you were become most dear unto us.
GRADUAL Ps. 39.10-11
I have announced justice in the great assembly. Lo, I have not restrained my lips. O Lord, thou knowest it. I have not hid thy justice within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy help.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Ps. 22.5-6. Thou dost prepare for me a table, thou dost anoint my head with oil: my cup is most rich. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John (21.15-17)
At that time, Jesus saith to Simon Peter: Simon son of John, lovest thou me more than 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.
OFFERTORY Ps. 33.12
Come, children hearken to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
