Lesson from the second letter of St. Paul the Apostle to Timothy Beloved: I charge you, in the sight of God and Christ Jesus, Who will judge the living and the dead by His coming and by His kingdom, preach the word, be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, entreat, rebuke with all patience and teaching. For there will come a time when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but having itching ears, will heap up to themselves teachers according to their own lusts, and they will turn away their hearing from the truth and turn aside rather to fables. But be watchful in all things, bear with tribulation patiently, work as a preacher of the Gospel, fulfill your ministry. As for me, I am already being poured out in sacrifice, and the time of my deliverance is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith. For the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord, the just Judge, will give to me in that day; yet not to me only, but also to those who love His coming.

Præsens oblátio fiat, Dómine, pópulo tuo salutáris: pro quo dignátus es Patri tuo te vivéntem hóstiam immoláre: Qui cum eódem Deo Patre et Spíritu Sancto vivis et regnas Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.

May the offering here before You, O Lord, bring safety to Your people, for whom You mercifully offered Yourself a living victim to the Father, Who, with the same God the Father and the Holy Spirit, live and reign, God forever and ever.

Divínis, Dómine, munéribus satiáti: quǽsumus; ut, beáti Antónii Confessóris tui atque Doctóris méritis et intercessióne, salutáris sacrifícii sentiámus efféctum.

Os justi meditábitur sapiéntiam, et lingua ejus loquétur judícium: lex Dei ejus in corde ipsíus. (Allelúja, allelúja.) Noli æmulári in malignántibus: neque zeláveris faciéntes iniquitátem. Os justi meditábitur sapiéntiam, et lingua ejus loquétur judícium: lex Dei ejus in corde ipsíus. (Allelúja, allelúja.)

Justus ut palma florébit: sicut cedrus Líbani multiplicábitur in domo Dómini. Ad annuntiándum mane misericórdiam tuam, et veritátem tuam per noctem. Allelúja, allelúja Beátus vir, qui suffert tentatiónem: quóniam, cum probátus fúerit, accípiet corónam vitæ. Allelúja.

Sequéntia † sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Sint lumbi vestri præcíncti, et lucernæ ardéntes in mánibus vestris, et vos símiles homínibus exspectántibus dóminum suum, quando revertátur a núptiis: ut, cum vénerit et pulsáverit, conféstim apériant ei. Beáti servi illi, quos, cum vénerit dóminus, invénerit vigilántes: amen, dico vobis, quod præcínget se, et fáciet illos discúmbere, et tránsiens ministrábit illis. Et si vénerit in secúnda vigília, et si in tértia vigília vénerit, et ita invénerit, beáti sunt servi illi. Hoc autem scitóte, quóniam, si sciret paterfamílias, qua hora fur veníret, vigiláret útique, et non síneret pérfodi domum suam. Et vos estóte paráti, quia, qua hora non putátis, Fílius hóminis véniet.

Véritas mea et misericórdia mea cum ipso: et in nómine meo exaltábitur cornu ejus. (Allelúja.)

Beátus servus, quem, cum vénerit dóminus, invénerit vigilántem: amen, dico vobis, super ómnia bona sua constítuet eum. (Allelúja.)
