Epistle:
[Col. 3:12-17] Fratres: Indúite vos sicut elécti Dei, sancti, et dilécti, víscera misericórdiæ, benignitátem, humilitátem, modéstiam, patiéntiam: supportantes ínvicem, et donántes vobismetípsis, si quid advérsus áliquem habet querélam: sicut et Dóminus donávit vobis, ita et vos. Super ómnia autem hæc, caritátem habéte, quod est vínculum perfectiónis: et pax Christi exsúltet in córdibus vestris, in qua et vocáti estis in uno córpore: et grati estóte. Verbum Christi hábitet in vobis abundánter, in omni sapiéntia, docéntes, et commonéntes vosmetípsos psalmis, hymnis, et cánticis spirituálibus, in grátia cantántes in córdibus vestris Deo. Omne, quodcúmque fácitis in verbo, aut in ópere, ómnia in nómine Dómini Jesu Christi, grátias agéntes Deo, et Patri per Jesum Christum Dóminum nostrum.
[Col. 3:12-17] Brethren: Put ye on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, heartfelt mercy, benignity, humility, modesty, patience: bearing with one another and forgiving one another, if any have a complaint against another: even as the Lord hath forgiven you, so do you also. But above all these things have charity, which is the bond of perfection: and let the peace of Christ rejoice in your hearts, wherein also you are called in one body: and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly, in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, hymns and spiritual canticles, singing in grace in your hearts to God. All whatsoever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Gospel:
[Saint Matthew 22:15-21] In illo témpore:
Dixit Jesus turbis parábolam hanc:
Simile factum est regnum cælórum hómini, qui seminávit bonum semen in agro suo.
Cum autem dormírent hómines, venit inimícus ejus, et superseminávit zizánia in médio trítici, et ábiit.
Cum autem crevísset herba, et fructum fecísset, tunc apparuérunt et zizánia.
Accedéntes autem servi patrisfamílias, dixérunt ei: Dómine, nonne bonum semen seminásti in agro tuo?
Unde ergo habet zizánia?
Et ait illis:
Inimícus homo hoc fecít.
Servi autem dixérunt ei:
Vis, imus, et collígimus ea?
et ait:
Non:
ne forte colligéntes zizánia, eradicétis simul cum eis et tríticum.
Sínite útraque créscere usque ad messem, et in témpore messis dicam messóribus:
Collígite primum zizánia, et alligáte ea in fascículos ad comburéndum, tríticum autem congregáte in hórreum meum.
[Saint Matthew 22:15-21] At that time Jesus spoke this parable to the multitudes: The kingdom of heaven is likened to a man that sowed good seed in his field. But while men were asleep, his enemy came and oversowed cockle among the wheat, and went his way. And when the blade was sprung up and had brought forth fruit, then appeared also the cockle. And the servants of the good man of the house coming, said to him: Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? Whence then hath it cockle? And he said to them: An enemy hath done this. And the servants said to him: Wilt thou that we go and gather it up? And he said: No, lest perhaps, gathering up the cockle, you root up the wheat also together with it. Suffer both to grow until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather up first the cockle and bind it into bundles to burn, but the wheat gather ye into my barn.
Offertory:
Déxtera Dómini fecit virtútem:
déxtera Dómini exaltávit me:
non móriar, sed vivam, et narrábo ópera Dómini. [Psalm 117:16,17]
The right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength: the right hand of the Lord hath exalted me: I shall not die, but live, and shall declare the works of the Lord. [Psalm 117:16,17]
Secret:
Hóstias tibi, Dómine, placatiónis offérimus: ut et delícta nostra miserátus absólvas, et nutántia corda tu dírigas. Per Dóminum nostrum.
We offer unto Thee, O Lord, the sacrifice of propitiation, that Thou mayest of Thy mercy, absolve us from our sins, and Thyself direct our inconstant hearts. Through our Lord.
Preface: Preface of the Most Holy Trinity
Vere dignum et justum est, aéquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere:
Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus.
Qui cum unigénito Fílio tuo, et Spíritu Sancto, unus es Deus, unus es Dóminus:
non in uníus singularitáte persónæ, sed in uníus Trinitáte substántiæ.
Quod enim de tua glória, revelánte te, crédimus, hoc de Fílio tuo, hoc de Spíritu Sancto, sine differéntia discretiónis sentímus.
Ut in confessióne veræ sempiternaéque Deitátis, et in persónis propríetas, et in esséntia únitas, et in majestáte adorétur æquálitas.
Quam laudant Ángeli, atque Archángeli, Chérubim quoque ac Séraphim:
qui non cessant clamáre quotídie, 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 unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting 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 we believe by Thy revelation 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 everlasting Godhead, distinction in persons, unity in essence, and equality in majesty may be adored.
Which the angels and archangels, the cherubim also and seraphim do praise: who cease not daily to cry out, with one voice saying:
Holy, Holy Holy …
Communion:
Mirabántur omnes de his, quæ procedébant de ore Dei. [Saint Luke 5:22]
All wondered at these things which proceeded from the mouth of God.
Postcommunion:
Quǽsumus, omnípotens Deus: ut illíus salutáris capiámus efféctum, cujus per hæc mystéria pignus accépimus. Per Dóminum nostrum.
We beseech Thee, O almighty God, that we may obtain the effect of that salvation, the pledge of which we have received in these mysteries. Through our Lord.
