Esto mihi in Deum protectorem, et in locum refugii, ut salvum me facias : quoniam firmamentum meum, et refugium meum es tu: et propter nomen tuum dux mihi eris, et enutries me. (Ps. 30. 2).

EPISTLE:   2 Corinthians 13: 1-13

Lectio Epistolae beati Pauli Apostoli ad Corinthios. Fratres: Si linguis hominum loquar, et Angelorum, caritatem autem non habeam, factus sum velut aes sonas, aut cymbalum tinniens. Et si habuero prophetetiam, et noverim mysteria omnia et omnes sicentiam : et si habuero omnem fidem ita ut montes transferam, caritatem autem non habuero, Nihil sum. Et si distribuero in cibos papuperumomnes faculates meas, et si tradidero corpus meum, ita ut ardeam, caritatem autem non habuero, Nihil mihi prodest. Caritas patiens est, benigna est : Caritas non aemulatur, non agi perperam, non inflator, non est ambitiosa, non inflator, non est ambitiosa, non quaerit quae sua sunt non irriatur, non cogitate malum, non gaudet super inquitate, cogaudet autem veritati : omnia suffert, omnia credit, omnia seperat, omnia sustinet. Caritas nunquam excdidt :sive linguae cessabunt, sive scientia destruetur. Ex patre enim cognoscimus, et ex parte prophetamus. Cum autem venerit quod perfectum est, evacuabitur quod ex parte est. Cum essem parvulus, Loquebar ut parvulus, sapiebam ut parvulus, cogitabam ut parvulus. Quando autem factus sum vir, evacuavi quae errant parvuli, Videmus nunc per speculum in aenigmate: tunc autem facie ad vadiem. Nunc cognosco ex parte: tunc autem cognoscam sicuit et cognitius sum. Nunc autem manent, fides, spes, caritas, tria haec : major autem horum est caritas. Deo Gratias.		Lesson from the Epistle of Blessed Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians. Brethren: If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal. And if I should have prophecy, and should know all mysteries, and all knowledge; and if I should have all faith so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And if I should distribute all my goods to feed the poor, and if I should deliver my body to be burned and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing; Charity envieth not, dealeth not perversely, is not puffed up, is not ambitious, seeketh not her own, is not provoked to anger, thinketh no evil, rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth with the truth: beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never falleth away; whether prophecies shall be away; whether prophecies shall be made void, or tongues shall cease, or knowledge shall pass be destroyed. For we now in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child. I understood as a child I thought as a child. But when I became a man, I put away the things of a child. We see now through a glass in a dark manner; but then face to face. Now I know in part; but then I shall know even as I am known. And now there remain faith, hope, and charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. Thanks be to God.

GOSPEL:    Luke 18: 31-43

Dominus vobiscum. R. Et cum spiritu tuo. Sequentia sancti Evangelii secundum Lucam. R.Gloria tibi, Domine In illo tempore : Assumpsit Jesus duodecim, et ait illis :' Ecce ascendimus Jerosolymam, et consummabuntur omnia, quae scripta sunt per Phophetas de Filio hominis. Tradetur enim gentibus, et illudetur, et flagellabitur, et conspuetur : et postquam flagllaverint, occident eum, et territa die resurget.' Et ipsi Nihil horum intellexerunt, et eat verbum istud absconditium ab eis, et non intelligebant quae dicebantur. Factum est autem cum appropinquaret Jericho, caecus quidam sedebit secus viam, mendicans. Et cum audiret turban praetereuntem, interrogabat guid hoc esset. Dixerunt autem ei, quod Jesus Nazarenus transfiret. Et clamavit, dicens : 'Jesu, fili David, Miserere mei.' Et qui praeibant, increpabant eum ut traceret. Ipse vero multo magis clamabat : 'Fili David, Miserere mei.' Stans autem Jesus, jussit illum adduci ad se. Et cum appropinquasset, interrogavit illum, dicens : 'Quid tibi vis faciam?' At ille dixit : 'Domine, ut videam.' Et Jesus dixit illi : 'Respice, fides tua te salvum fecit.' Et confestim vidit, et sequebatur illum magnificans Deum. Et omnis plebs ut vidit, dedit laudem Deo.		The Lord be with you. R. And with thy spirit. The continuation of the holy Gospel according to Luke. R. Glory to Thee, O Lord At that time Jesus took unto Him the twelve and said to them :' Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things shall by accomplished which were written by the Prophets concerning the Son of Man. For He shall be delivered to the Gentiles, and shall be mocked and scourged and spit upon: and after they have scourged Him, they will put Him to death, and the third day He shall rise again.' And they understood none of these things, and the word was hid from them, and they understood not the things that were said. Now it came to pass, when He drew nigh to Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the wayside begging. And when he heard the multitude passing by, he asked what this meant. And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. And he cried out, saying : 'Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me.' And they that went before rebuked him, that he cried out much more : 'Son of David, have mercy on me.' And Jesus standing, commanded him to brought unto him. And when he was come near, He asked him, saying : 'What wilt thou that I do to thee?' But he said: 'Lord, that I may see.' And Jesus said to him: 'Receive thy sight, thy faith hath made thee whole.' And immediately he saw and followed Him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God. Praise be to Christ
