Epistle:
[Eph. 5:15-21] Fratres: Vidéte quomodo caute ambulétis: non quasi insipiéntes, sed ut sapiéntes: rediméntes tempus, quoniam dies, mali sunt. Proptérea nolíte fieri imprudéntes, sed intelligéntes quæ sit volúntas Dei. Et nolíte inebríari vino, in quo est luxúria, sed implémini Spíritu Sancto, loquéntes vobismetípsis in psalmis, et hymnis, et cáncticis spirituálibus, cantántes, et psalléntes in córdibus vestris Dómino, grátias agéntes semper pro ómnibus, in nómine Dómini nostri Jesu Christi Deo et Patri. Subjécti invícem in timóre Christi.
[Eph. 5:15-21] Brethren: See how you walk circumspectly, not as unwise, but as wise redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore, become not unwise, but understanding what is the will of God. And be not drunk with wine, wherein is luxury but be ye filled with the Holy Spirit, speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things, in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father being subject one to another in the fear of Christ.
Gradual:
[Psalm 144:15,16] Oculi ómnium in te sperant, Dómine: et tu das illia escam in témpore opportúno. Aperis tu manum tuam, et imples omni ánimal benedictióne.
[Psalm 144:15,16] The eyes of all hope in Thee, O Lord and Thou givest them meat in due season. Thou openest Thy hand, and fillest every living creature with Thy blessing.
Alleluia:
[Psalm 107:2] Allelúia, allelúia. Parátum cor meum, Deus, parátum cor meum, cantábo, et psallam tibi, glória mea. Allelúia.
[Psalm 107:2] Alleluia, alleluia. My heart is ready, O God my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise to Thee, my glory. Alleluia.
Gospel:
[John 4:46-53] In illo témpore: Erat quidam régulus, cujus fílius infirmabátur Caphárnaum. Hic cum audísset, quia Jesus adveníret a Judæa in Galilæam, ábiit ad eum: et rogábat eum ut descénderet et sanáret fílium ejus: incipiébat enim mori. Dixit ergo Jesus ad eum: Nisi signa, et prodígia vidéritis, non créditis. Dicit ad eum régulus: Dómine, descénde priúsquam moriétur fílius meus. Dicit ei Jesus: Vade fílius tuus vivit. Crédidit homo sermóni, quem dixit ei Jesus, et ibat. Jam autem eo descendéntem, servi occurrérunt eí, et nuntiavérunt dicéntes, quía fílius ejus víveret. Interrogábat ergo horam ab eis, in qua mélius habúerit. Et dixérunt ei: Quia heri hora séptima reliquit eum febris. Cognóvit ergo pater, quia illa hora erat, in qua dixit ei Jesus: Fílius tuus vivit: et crédidit ipse, et domus ejus tota.
[John 4:46-53] At that time, there was a certain ruler whose son was sick at Capharnaum. He having heard that Jesus was come from Judæa into Galilee, went to Him, and prayed Him to come down, and heal his son for he was at the point of death. Jesus therefore said to him: Unless you see signs and wonders, you believe not. The ruler saith to Him: Lord, come down before my son die. Jesus saith to him: Go on thy way, thy son liveth. The man believed the word which Jesus had said to him, and went his way. And as he was going down, his servants met him, and they brought word, saying that his son lived. He asked therefore of them the hour wherein he grew better. And they said to him: Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him. The father therefore knew that it was at the same hour that Jesus said to him: Thy son liveth and himself believed, and his whole house.
Offertory:
Super flumina Babylónis illic sédimus, et flevimus, dum recordarémur tui, Sion.
[Psalm 136:1]
Upon the rivers of Babylon there we sat, and wept; when we remembered thee, O Sion. [Psalm 136:1]
Secret:
Cæléstem nobis præbeant hæc mysteria, quæsumus Dómine, medicí-nam: et vitia nostri cordis expúrgent. Per Dóminum.
May these mysteries, we beseech Thee, O Lord, provide us with a Heavenly remedy: and purge our hearts from their vices. Through our Lord.
Preface: Preface of the Most Holy Trinity
Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubique grátias ágere, Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Qui cum unigénito Fílio tuo, et Spíritu Sancto, unus es Deus, unus es Dóminus: non in unius singularitáte persónæ, sed in unius Trinitáte substántiæ. Quod enim de tua glória, revelánte te, crédimus, hoc de Fílio tuo, hoc de Spiritu Sancto, sine differéntia discretiónis sentímus. Ut in confessióne veræ, sempiternæque Deitátis, et in persónis propríetas et in esséntia únitas, et in majestáte adorétur æquálitas. Quam laudant Angelí, atque Archángeli, Chérubim quoque ac Séraphim: qui non cessant clamáre quotidíe, una voce dicéntes: Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus.
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, holy Lord,
Father almighty, eternal God:
Who, together with Thine only-begotten Son and the Holy Ghost, art one God, one Lord:
not in the Oneness of a single Person, but in the Trinity of one substance.
For what by Thy revelation we believe of Thy glory, the same do we believe of Thy Son, the same of the Holy Ghost, without difference or separation;
so that in confessing the true and eternal Godhead, in It we should adore distinction in persons, unity in Essence, and equality in Majesty:
in praise of which Angels and Archangels, Cherubim also and Seraphim day and night exclaim, without end and with one voice saying:
Holy, Holy, Holy.
Communion:
Meménto verbi tui servo tuo, Dómíne, in quo mihí spem dedísti: hæc me consoláta est in humilitáte mea. [Psalm 118:49-50]
Be Thou mindful of Thy word to Thy servant, O Lord, in which Thou hast given me hope: this hath comforted me in my humiliation. [Psalm 118:49-50]
Postcommunion:
Ut sacris, Dómine, reddámur digni munéribus: fac nos, quæsumus, tuis semper obedíre mandátis. Per Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum.
That we may be made worthy, O Lord, of these holy gifts: make us, we beseech Thee, ever to obey Thy commandments. Through the same Lord Jesus Christ.
