Epistle
Léctio Joélis ProphétæLesson from the book of Joel
Joël 2:23-24; 2:26-27
Hæc dicit Dóminus Deus: Exsultáte, fílii Sion, et lætámini in Dómino, Deo vestro: quia dedit vobis doctórem justítiæ, et descéndere fáciet ad vos imbrem matutínum et serótinum, sicut in princípio. Et implebúntur áreæ fruménto et redundábunt torculária vino et óleo. Et comedétis vescéntes et saturabímini, et laudábitis nomen Dómini, Dei vestri, qui fecit mirabília vobíscum: et non confundétur pópulus meus in sempitérnum. Et sciétis, quia in médio Israël ego sum: et ego Dóminus, Deus vester, et non est ámplius: et non confundétur pópulus meus in ætérnum: ait Dóminus omnípotens.Thus says the Lord God: O children of Sion, exult and rejoice in the Lord, your God! He has given you the teacher of justice: He has made the rain come down for you, the early and the late rain as before. The threshing floors shall be full of grain and the vats shall overflow with wine and oil. You shall eat and be filled, and shall praise the name of the Lord, your God, because He has dealt wondrously with you; My people shall nevermore be put to shame. And you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel; I am the Lord, your God, and there is no other; My people shall nevermore be put to shame, says the Lord almighty.

Gospel
Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum LucamContinuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke
Luc 5:17-26
In illo témpore: Factum est in una diérum, et Jesus sedébat docens. Et erant pharisǽi sedéntes, et legis doctóres, qui vénerant ex omni castéllo Galilǽæ et Judǽæ et Jerúsalem: et virtus Dómini erat ad sanándum eos. Et ecce, viri portántes in lecto hóminem, qui erat paralýticus: et quærébant eum inférre, et pónere ante eum. Et non inveniéntes, qua parte illum inférrent præ turba, ascendérunt supra tectum, et per tégulas summisérunt eum cum lecto in médium ante Jesum. Quorum fidem ut vidit, dixit: Homo, remittúntur tibi peccáta tua. Et cœpérunt cogitáre scribæ et pharisǽi, dicéntes: Quis est hic, qui lóquitur blasphémias ? Quis potest dimíttere peccáta nisi solus Deus? Ut cognóvit autem Jesus cogitatiónes eórum, respóndens dixit ad illos: Quid cogitátis in córdibus vestris? Quid est facílius dícere: Dimittúntur tibi peccáta, an dícere: Surge et ámbula? Ut autem sciátis, quia Fílius hóminis habet potestátem in terra dimitténdi peccáta, ait paralýtico: Tibi dico, surge, tolle lectum tuum et vade in domum tuam. Et conféstim consúrgens coram illis, tulit lectum, in quo jacébat: et ábiit in domum suam, magníficans Deum. Et stupor apprehéndit omnes et magnificábant Deum. Et repléti sunt timóre, dicéntes: Quia vídimus mirabília hódie.At that time, it came to pass on one of the days, that Jesus sat teaching. And there were Pharisees and teachers of the Law sitting by, who had come out of every village of Galilee and Judea and out of Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them. And behold, some men were carrying upon a pallet a man who was paralyzed, and they were trying to bring him in and to lay him before Him. And as they found no way of bringing him in, because of the crowd, they went up onto the roof and lowered him through the tiles, with his pallet, into the midst before Jesus. And seeing their faith, He said, Man, your sins are forgiven you. And the Scribes and Pharisees began to argue, saying, Who is this man who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God only? But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, answered and said to them, “Why are you arguing in your hearts? Which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven you,' or to say, 'Arise and walk'?” But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins - He said to the paralytic - I say to you, arise, take up your pallet and go to your house. And immediately he arose before them, took up what he had been lying on, and went away to his house, glorifying God. And astonishment seized upon them all, and they glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen wonderful things today.

Preface
de Spiritu Sancto
Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Qui, ascéndens super omnes cælos sedénsque ad déxteram tuam, promíssum Spíritum Sanctum hodierna die in fílios adoptiónis effúdit. Quaprópter profúsis gáudiis totus in orbe terrárum mundus exsúltat. Sed et supérnæ Virtútes atque angélicæ Potestátes hymnum glóriæ tuæ cóncinunt, sine fine dicéntes: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: through Christ our Lord. Who ascending above all in the heavens and sitting at Thy Right Hand, poured out the Holy Spirit upon the children of adoption. Wherefore the whole world doth rejoice with overflowing joy; and the heavenly Hosts also and the angelic Powers sing together the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
