Lesson from the letter of St Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews
Heb 10:32-38
Brethren: Call to mind the days gone by, in which, after you had been enlightened, you endured a great conflict of sufferings; partly by being made a public spectacle through reproaches and tribulations, and partly by making common cause with those who fared thus. For you both have had compassion on those in prison and have joyfully accepted the plundering of your own goods, knowing that you have a better possession and a lasting one. Do not, therefore, lose your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of patience that, doing the will of God, you may receive the promise: For yet a very little while, and He Who is to come, will come, and will not delay. Now My just one lives by faith.
Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Hebrǽos
Hebr 10:32-38
Fratres: Rememorámini prístinos dies, in quibus illumináti magnum certámen sustinuístis passiónum: et in áltero quidem oppróbriis et tribulatiónibus spectáculum facti: in áltero autem sócii táliter conversántium effécti. Nam et vinctis compássi estis, et rapínam bonórum vestrórum cum gáudio suscepístis, cognoscéntes vos habere meliórem et manéntem substántiam. Nolíte itaque amíttere confidéntiam vestram, quæ magnam habet remuneratiónem. Patiéntia enim vobis necessária est: ut, voluntátem Dei faciéntes, reportétis promissiónem. Adhuc enim módicum aliquántulum, qui ventúrus est, véniet, et non tardábit. Justus autem meus ex fide vivit.
Ps 39:18-19
When the just cry out the Lord hears them, and from all their distress He rescues them.
℣. The Lord is close to those who are contrite of heart; and those who are humble of spirit He saves. Alleluia, alleluia.
℣. The white-robed army of Martyrs praises You, O Lord. Alleluia.
Ps 33:18-19
Clamavérunt justi, et Dóminus exaudívit eos: et ex ómnibus tribulatiónibus eórum liberávit eos.
℣. Juxta est Dóminus his, qui tribuláto sunt corde: et húmiles spíritu salvábit. Allelúja, allelúja.
℣. Te Mártyrum candidátus laudat exércitus, Dómine. Allelúja.
Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
Matt 24:3-13
At that time, as Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying: Tell us, when are these things to happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the world? And in answer Jesus said to them, Take care that no one leads you astray. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. For you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars. Take care that you do not be alarmed, for these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be pestilences and famines and earthquakes in various places. But all these things are the beginnings of sorrows. Then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and will put you to death; and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. And then many will fall away, and will betray one another, and will hate one another. And many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray. And because iniquity will abound, the charity of the many will grow cold. But whoever perseveres to the end, he shall be saved.
Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum
Matt 24:3-13
In illo témpore: Sedénte Jesu super montem Olivéti, accessérunt ad eum discípuli secréto, dicéntes: Dic nobis, quando hæc erunt? et quod signum advéntus tui et consummatiónis sǽculi? ¶ Et respóndens Jesus, dixit eis: Vidéte, ne quis vos sedúcat. Multi enim vénient in nómine meo, dicéntes: Ego sum Christus: et multos sedúcent. Auditúri enim estis prælia et opiniónes prœliórum. Vidéte, ne turbémini. Opórtet enim hæc fíeri, sed nondum est finis. Consúrget enim gens in gentem, et regnum in regnum, et erunt pestiléntiæ et fames et terræmótus per loca. Hæc autem ómnia inítia sunt dolórum. Tunc tradent vos in tribulatiónem et occídent vos: et éritis odio ómnibus géntibus propter nomen meum. Et tunc scandalizabúntur multi, et ínvicem tradent, et odio habébunt ínvicem. Et multi pseudoprophétæ surgent, et sedúcent multos. Et quóniam abundávit iníquitas, refrigéscet cáritas multórum. Qui autem perseveráverit usque in finem, hic salvus erit.
Wis 3:1-3
The souls of the just are in the hand of God, and no torment shall touch them. They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead: but they are in peace, alleluia.
peace.
Sap 3:1-3
Justórum ánimæ in manu Dei sunt, et non tanget illos torméntum malítiæ: visi sunt óculis insipiéntium mori: illi autem sunt in
Be appeased by the gifts we offer You, O Lord, and through the intercession of Your holy Martyrs Januarius and Companions, safeguard us from all dangers.
Through our Lord…
Oblátis, quǽsumus, Dómine, placáre munéribus: et, intercedéntibus sanctis Martýribus tuis Januário et Sóciis ejus, a cunctis nos defénde perículis.

Common
It is truly meet and just, and profitable unto salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, O Holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God, through Christ, our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominions adore it, the Powers are in awe. Which the heavens and the hosts of heaven together with the blessed Seraphim joyfully do magnify. And do Thou command that it be permitted us to join with them in confessing Thee, while we say with lowly praise:
Communis
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. Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces ut admítti jubeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessione dicéntes:
Matt 10:27
What I tell you in darkness, speak it in the light, says the Lord; and what you hear whispered, preach it on the housetops.
Matt 10:27
Quod dico vobis in ténebris, dícite in lúmine, dicit Dóminus: et quod in aure audítis, prædicáte super tecta.
May this Communion, O Lord, cleanse us of sin, and, through the intercession of Your holy Martyrs Januarius and Companions, make us sharers of heavenly salvation.
Through our Lord…
Hæc nos commúnio, Dómine, purget a crímine: et, intercedéntibus sanctis Martýribus tuis Januário et Sóciis ejus, coeléstis remédii fáciat esse consórtes.
Per Dominum…
