Introitus Commune: Commune Plurimorum Martyrum
Intret in conspéctu tuo, Dómine, gémitus compeditórum: redde vicínis nostris séptuplum in sinu eórum: víndica sánguinem Sanctórum tuórum, qui effúsus est. Deus, venérunt gentes in hereditátem tuam: polluérunt templum sanctum tuum: posuérunt Jerúsalem in pomórum custódiam. Intret in conspéctu tuo, Dómine, gémitus compeditórum: redde vicínis nostris séptuplum in sinu eórum: víndica sánguinem Sanctórum tuórum, qui effúsus est.

Lesung (Lectio / Epistola)
Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Hebrǽos Fratres: Sancti per fidem vicérunt regna, operáti sunt justítiam, adépti sunt repromissiónes, obturavérunt ora leónum, exstinxérunt ímpetum ignis, effugérunt áciem gládii, convaluérunt de infirmitáte, fortes facti sunt in bello, castra vertérunt exterórum: accepérunt mulíeres de resurrectióne mórtuos suos: álii autem distenti sunt, non suscipiéntes redemptiónem, ut meliórem invenírent resurrectiónem: álii vero ludíbria et vérbera expérti, ínsuper et víncula et cárceres: lapidáti sunt, secti sunt, tentáti sunt, in occisióne gládii mórtui sunt: circuiérunt in melótis, in péllibus caprínis, egéntes, angustiáti, afflícti: quibus dignus non erat mundus: in solitudínibus errántes, in móntibus et spelúncis et in cavérnis terræ. Et hi omnes testimónio fídei probáti, invénti sunt in Christo Jesu, Dómino nostro.
Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews Who by faith conquered kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, recovered strength from weakness, became valiant in battle, put to flight the armies of foreigners: Women received their dead raised to life again. But others were racked, not accepting deliverance, that they might find a better resurrection. And others had trial of mockeries and stripes, moreover also of bands and prisons. They were stoned, they were cut asunder, they were tempted, they were put to death by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being in want, distressed, afflicted: Of whom the world was not worthy; wandering in deserts, in mountains, and in dens, and in caves of the earth. And all these being approved by the testimony of faith, received not the promise.
Graduale / Alleluia Commune: Commune Plurimorum Martyrum
Gloriósus Deus in Sanctis suis: mirábilis in majestáte, fáciens prodígia. V. Déxtera tua, Dómine, glorificáta est in virtúte: déxtera manus tua confrégit inimícos. Allelúja, allelúja. Córpora Sanctórum in pace sepúlta sunt, et nómina eórum vivent in generatiónem et generatiónem. Allelúja.

Evangelium Commune: Commune Plurimorum Martyrum
Sequéntia † sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Cum audiéritis prǽlia et seditiónes, nolíte terréri: opórtet primum hæc fíeri, sed nondum statim finis. Tunc dicébat illis: Surget gens contra gentem, et regnum advérsus regnum. Et terræmótus magni erunt per loca, et pestiléntiæ, et fames, terrorésque de coelo, et signa magna erunt. Sed ante hæc ómnia injícient vobis manus suas, et persequéntur tradéntes in synagógas et custódias, trahéntes ad reges et praesides propter nomen meum: contínget autem vobis in testimónium. Pónite ergo in córdibus vestris non præmeditári, quemádmodum respondeátis. Ego enim dabo vobis os et sapiéntiam, cui non potérunt resístere et contradícere omnes adversárii vestri. Tradémini autem a paréntibus, et frátribus, et cognátis, et amícis, et morte affícient ex vobis: et éritis ódio ómnibus propter nomen meum: et capíllus de cápite vestro non períbit. In patiéntia vestra possidébitis ánimas vestras.
