Nos stulti propter Christum, vos autem prudéntes in Christo: nos infírmi, vos autem fortes: vos nóbiles, nos autem ignóbiles. Usque in hanc horam et esurímus, et sitímus, et nudi sumus, et cólaphis cǽdimur, et instábiles sumus, et laborámus operántes mánibus nostris: maledícimur, et benedícimus: persecutiónem pátimur, et sustinémus: blasphemámur, et obsecrámus: tamquam purgaménta hujus mundi facti sumus, ómnium peripséma usque adhuc. Non ut confúndant vos, hæc scribo, sed ut fílios meos caríssimos móneo: in Christo Jesu, Dómino nostro. **English** A reading from the Epistle of Saint Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians Brothers and sisters: We have become a spectacle to the world, to Angels and to human beings. We are fools for Christ, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honoured, but we are despised. To this very hour we hunger and thirst, we lack clothing, we are beaten and have no settled home, and we toil, working with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when persecuted, we endure; when slandered, we appeal with kindness. We have become like the refuse of the world, the scum of all things, even now. I do not write this to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children, in Christ Jesus our Lord. ## Graduale [↗](https://missale.online/proprium/en/commune/commune_confessoris_non_pontificis_altera_missa#text-0cca5c0fea86034d50e3) **Latin** Os iusti meditabitur sapientiam, et lingua eius loquetur iudicium. ℣.
