jr 18,18–23
Latin

Léctio Jeremíæ Prophétæ In diébus illis: Dixérunt ímpii Judǽi ad ínvicem: Veníte, et cogitémus contra justum cogitatiónes: non enim períbit lex a sacerdóte, neque consílium a sapiénte, nec sermo a prophéta: veníte, et percutiámus eum lingua, et non attendámus ad univérsos sermónes ejus. Atténde, Dómine, ad me, et audi vocem adversariórum meórum. Numquid rédditur pro bono malum, quia fodérunt fóveam ánimæ meæ? Recordáre, quod stéterim in conspéctu tuo, ut lóquerer pro eis bonum, et avérterem indignatiónem tuam ab eis. Proptérea da fílios eórum in famem, et deduc eos in manus gládii: fiant uxóres eórum absque líberis, et víduæ: et viri eárum interficiántur morte: júvenes eórum confodiántur gládio in prǽlio. Audiátur clamor de dómibus eórum: addúces enim super eos latrónem repénte: quia fodérunt fóveam, ut cáperent me, et láqueos abscondérunt pédibus meis. Tu autem, Dómine, scis omne consílium eórum advérsum me in mortem: ne propitiéris iniquitáti eórum, et peccátum eórum a fácie tua non deleátur. Fiant corruéntes in conspéctu tuo, in témpore furóris tui abútere eis, Dómine, Deus noster.

English

Lesson from the Prophecy of Jeremias In those days, the wicked Jews said to one another, Come, let us contrive a plot against the Just. It will not mean the loss of instruction from the priests, nor of counsel from the wise, nor of messages from the prophets. And so, let us destroy him with the tongue, let us pay no heed to all his words. Heed me, O Lord, and listen to what my adversaries say. Must good be repaid with evil that they should dig a pit to take my life? Remember that I stood before You to speak in their behalf, to turn away Your wrath from them. So now, deliver their children to famine, do away with them by the sword. Let their wives be made childless and widows; let their men die of pestilence, their young men be slain by the sword in battle. May cries be heard from their homes, when suddenly You send plunderers against them. For they have dug a pit to capture me, they have hid snares for my feet; but You, O Lord, know all their plans to slay me. Forgive not their crime, blot not out their sin in Your sight! Let them go down before you, proceed against them in the time of Your anger, O Lord, our God.

Latin

Deo grátias.

English

Thanks be to God.

Latin

Sequéntia ✠ sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem.

℟. Glória tibi, Dómine.

In illo témpore: Cogitavérunt príncipes sacerdótum, ut et Lázarum interfícerent: quia multi propter illum abíbant ex Judǽis, et credébant in Jesum. In crástinum autem turba multa, quæ vénerat ad diem festum, cum audíssent, quia venit Jesus Jerosólymam, accepérunt ramos palmárum, et processérunt óbviam ei, et clamábant: Hosánna, benedíctus, qui venit in nómine Dómini, Rex Israël. Et invénit Jesus aséllum, et sedit super eum, sicut scriptum est: Noli timére, fília Sion: ecce, Rex tuus venit sedens super pullum ásinæ. Hæc non cognovérunt discípuli ejus primum: sed quando glorificátus est Jesus, tunc recordáti sunt, quia hæc erant scripta de eo: et hæc fecérunt ei. Testimónium ergo perhibébat turba, quæ erat cum eo, quando Lázarum vocávit de monuménto, et suscitávit eum a mórtuis. Proptérea et óbviam venit ei turba: quia audiérunt eum fecísse hoc signum. Pharisǽi ergo dixérunt ad semetípsos: Vidétis, quia nihil profícimus? Ecce, mundus totus post eum ábiit. Erant autem quidam gentíles ex his, qui ascénderant, ut adorárent in die festo. Hi ergo accessérunt ad Philíppum, qui erat a Bethsáida Galilǽæ: et rogábant eum, dicéntes: Dómine, vólumus Jesum vidére. Venit Philíppus, et dicit Andréæ: Andréas rursum et Philíppus dixérunt Jesu. Jesus autem respóndit eis, dicens: Venit hora, ut clarificétur Fílius hóminis. Amen, amen, dico vobis, nisi granum fruménti cadens in terram mórtuum fúerit, ipsum solum manet: si autem mórtuum fúerit, multum fructum affert. Qui amat ánimam suam, perdet eam: et qui odit ánimam suam in hoc mundo, in vitam ætérnam custódit eam. Si quis mihi minístrat, me sequátur: et ubi sum ego, illic et miníster meus erit. Si quis mihi ministráverit, honorificábit eum Pater meus. Nunc ánima mea turbáta est. Et quid dicam? Pater, salvífica me ex hac hora. Sed proptérea veni in horam hanc. Pater, clarífica nomen tuum. Venit ergo vox de cœlo: Et clarificávi, et íterum clarificábo. Turba ergo, quæ stabat et audíerat, dicebat tonítruum esse factum. Alii dicébant: Angelus ei locútus est. Respóndit Jesus et dixit: Non propter me hæc vox venit, sed propter vos. Nunc judícium est mundi, nunc princeps hujus mundi ejiciétur foras. Et ego si exaltátus fúero a terra, ómnia traham ad meípsum. - Hoc autem dicébat, signíficans, qua morte esset moritúrus. - Respóndit ei turba: Nos audívimus ex lege, quia Christus manet in ætérnum, et quómodo tu dicis: Opórtet exaltári Fílium hominis? Quis est iste Fílius hominis? Dixit ergo eis Jesus: Adhuc módicum lumen in vobis est. Ambuláte, dum lucem habétis, ut non vos ténebræ comprehéndant: et qui ámbulat in ténebris, nescit, quo vadat. Dum lucem habétis, crédite in lucem: ut fílii lucis sitis. Hæc locútus est Jesus: et ábiit, et abscóndit se ab eis.

℟. Laus tibi, Christe.

English

A reading from the holy Gospel according to John.

℟. Glory to you, O Lord.

At that time, the chief priests planned to put Lazarus to death also. For on his account many of the Jews began to leave them and to believe in Jesus. Now the next day, the great crowd which had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took the branches of palms and went forth to meet Him. And they cried out, Hosanna! Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel! And Jesus found a young ass, and sat upon it, as it is written, Fear not, daughter of Sion; behold, your King comes, sitting upon the colt of an ass. These things His disciples did not at first understand. But when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about Him, and that they had done these things to Him. The crowd therefore, which was with Him when He called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead, bore witness to Him. And the reason why the crowd also went to meet Him was that they heard that He had worked this sign. The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Do you see that we avail nothing? Behold, the entire world has gone after Him! Now there were certain Gentiles among those who had gone up to worship on the feast. These therefore approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we wish to see Jesus. Philip came and told Andrew; again, Andrew and Philip spoke to Jesus. But Jesus answered them, The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Amen, amen, I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone. But if it dies, it brings forth much fruit. He who loves his life, loses it; and he who hates his life in this world keeps it unto life everlasting. If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am there also shall My servant be. If anyone serves Me, My Father will honor him. Now my soul is troubled. And what shall I say? Father, save Me from this hour! No, this is why I came to this hour. Father, glorify Your name! There came therefore a voice from heaven, I have both glorified it, and I will glorify it again. Then the crowd which was standing round and had heard, said that it had thundered. Others said, An angel has spoken to Him. Jesus answered and said, Not for Me did this voice come, but for you. Now is the judgment of the world; now will the prince of the world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all things to Myself. Now He said this signifying by what death He was to die. The crowd answered Him, We have heard from the Law that the Christ abides forever. And how can You say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man? Jesus therefore said to them, Yet a little while the light is among you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness may not overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes. While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light. These things Jesus spoke, and He went away and hid Himself from them.

℟. Praise to you, O Christ.
