Twenty-Second Week after Pentecost
Mass of the Preceding Sunday
INTROIT - Psalm 129: 3-4
Si
iniquitátes observáveris, Dómine, Dómìne, quis sustinébit? quía apud te
propitátio est, Deus Israël. Ps. 129: 1, 2. De profúndis clamávi ad te, Dómíne:
Dómine, exáudì vocem meam. V. Gloria Patri.
If
Thou shalt observe iniquities, O Lord, Lord, who shall endure it? for with Thee
is propitiation, O God of Israel. Ps. From the depths I have cried to Thee, O
Lord: Lord, hear my voice. V. Glory be to the Father
COLLECT
O
God, our refuge and our strength, give ear to the holy prayers of Thy
Church, and grant, that what we ask with
faith, we may effectually obtain. Through our Lord.
EPISTLE - Philippians 1: 6-11
Brethren,
we are confident of this very thing, that He Who hath begun a good work in you,
will perfect it unto the day of Christ Jesus. As it is meet for me to think
this for you all: for that I have you in my heart and that, in my bands, and in
the defense and confirmation of the Gospel, you are all partakers of my joy.
For God is my witness, how I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.
And this I pray, that your charity may more and more abound in knowledge and in
all understanding that you may approve the better things, that you may be
sincere and without offense unto the day of Christ, filled with the fruits of
justice, through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
GRADUAL
Behold
how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. V. It
is like the precious ointment on the head, that ran down upon the beard, the
beard of Aaron.
ALLELUIA
Alleluia,
alleluia. V. Let them that fear the Lord, hope in Him; He is their helper and
their protector. Alleluia.
GOSPEL
At
that time, the Pharisees went and consulted among themselves, how to ensnare
Jesus in His speech. And they sent to Him their disciples, with the Herodians,
Saying: Master, we know that Thou art a true speaker, and teachest the way of
God in truth, neither carest Thou for any man, for Thou dost not regard the
person of men. Tell us therefore, what dost Thou think? Is it lawful to give
tribute to Caesar, or not? But Jesus knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you
tempt Me, you hypocrites? Show Me the coin of the tribute. And they offered Him
a penny. And Jesus saith to them: Whose image and superscription is this? They
say to Him: Caesar's. Then He saith to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things
that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.
OFFERTORY
Remember
me, O Lord, Thou Who rulest above all power; and give a well-ordered speech in
my mouth, that my words may be pleasing in the sight of the prince.
SECRET
Grant
unto us, O merciful God, that this saving oblation may unceasingly free us from
our own guilty deeds, and keep us from all things that may hurt us. Through our
Lord.
COMMON PREFACE
It
is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation that we should at all times
and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, eternal
God: through Christ our Lord, through Whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty,
Dominations worship, Powers stand in awe. The Heavens and the Heavenly hosts
together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it.
Together with them we entreat Thee, that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be
admitted, while we say in lowly praise:
SANCTUS
Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dóminus Deus Sábaoth. Pleni sunt cæli et
terra glória tua. Hosánna in excélsis. Benedíctus qui venit in nómine Dómini.
Hosánna in excélsis.
COMMUNION
I
have cried, for Thou, O God, hast heard me: O incline Thine ear unto me, and
hear my words.
POSTCOMMUNION
We
have received, O Lord, the gifts of this sacred Mystery, and humbly beseech
Thee: that what Thou hast bidden us to do in memory of Thee may avail us in our
weakness. Who livest and reignest.
