Thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: their principality is exceedingly strengthened. Ps. Lord, Thou hast proved me, and known me: Thou hast known my sitting down, and my rising up. Glory be to the Father.

Mihi autem nimis honoráti sunt amíci tui, Deus: nimis confortátus est principátus eórum. Ps. Dómine, probásti me, et cognovísti me: tu cognovísti sessiónem meam, et resurrectiónem meam. Gloria Patri.

God, Who hast granted us to come to the knowledge of Thy name through Thy blessed Apostles Simon and Jude, grant us to celebrate their everlasting glory by advancing in knowledge and to improve by this celebration. Through our Lord.

 

Deus, qui nos per beátos Apóstolos tuos Simónem et Judam ad agnitiónem tui nóminis veníre tribuísti: da nobis eórum glóriam sempitérnam proficiéndo celebráre et celebrándo profícere. Per Dominum.

EPISTLE - Ephesians 4: 7-13

Brethren: to every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the giving of Christ. Wherefore He saith: Ascending on high, He led captivity captive; He gave gifts to men. Now, that He ascended, what is it, but because He also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same also that ascended above all the heavens, that He might fill all things. And He gave some apostles, and some prophets, and other some evangelists, and other some pastors and doctors, for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ; until we all meet into the unity of faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the age of the fullness of Christ.

Fratres: Unicuíque nostrum data est grátia secúndum mensúram donatiónis Christi. Propter quod dicit: Ascéndens in altum, captívam duxit captivitátem: dedit dona homínibus. Quod autem ascéndit, quid est, nisi quia et descéndit primum in inferióres partes terræ? Qui descéndit, ipse est qui et ascéndit super omnes cœlos, ut impléret ómnia. Et ipse dedit quosdam quidem apóstolos, quosdam autem prophétas, álios vero evangelístas, álios autem pastóres, et doctóres, ad consummatiónem sanctórum in opus ministérii, in ædificatiónem córporis Christi: donec occurrámus omnes in unitátem fidei, et agnitiónis Fílii Dei, in virum perféctum, in mensúram ætáis plenitúdinis Christi.

GRADUAL - Psalm 44: 17-18

Thou shalt make them princes over all the earth: they shall be mindful of Thy name, O Lord. Instead of Thy fathers sons are born to Thee: therefore shall people praise Thee.

Constitues eos príncipes super omnem terram: mémores erunt nóminis tui, Dómine. Pro pátribus tuis nati sunt tibi fílii: proptérea pópuli confitebúntur tibi.

ALLELUIA - Psalm 138: 17

Alleluia, alleluia. Thee, the glorious choir of the apostles doth praise, O Lord. Alleluia.

Alleluia, allelúia. Te gloriósus Apostolórum chorus laudat, Dómine. Allelúia.

GOSPEL - John 15: 17-25

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples: These things I command you, that you love one another. If the world hate you, know ye that it hath hated Me before you. If you had been of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remember My word that I said to you, The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you: If they have kept My word, they will keep yours also. But all these things they will do to you for My name's sake, because they know not Him that sent Me. If I had not come, and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. He that hateth Me, hateth My Father also. If I had not done among them the works that no other man hath done, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated both Me and My Father. But that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law: They hated Me without cause.

In illo tempore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Hæc mando vobis, ut diligátis ínvicem. Si mundus vos odit: scitóte, quia me priórem vobis ódio hábuit. Si de mundo fuissétis: mundus quod suum erat, dilígeret: quia vero de mundo non estis, sed ego elégi vos de mundo, proptérea odit vos mundus. Mementóte sermónis mei, quem ego dixit vobis: Non est servus major dómino suo. Si me persecúti sunt, et vos persequéntur: si sermónem meum servavérunt, et vestrum servábunt. Sed hæc ómnia fácient vobis propter nomen meum: quia nésciunt eum, qui misit me. Si non veníssem, et locútus fuíssem eis, peccátum non habérent: nunc autem excusatiónem non habent de peccáto suo. Qui me odit: et Patrem Meum odit. Si ópera non fecíssem in eis, quæ nemo álius fecit, peccátum non habérent: nunc autem et vidérunt, et odérunt et me, et Patrem meum. Sed ut adimpleátur sermo, qui in lege eórum scriptus est: Quia ódio habuérunt me gratis.

OFFERTORY - Psalm 18: 5

Their sound went forth into all the earth; and their words to the end of the world.

In omnem terram exívit sonus eórum: et in fines orbis terræ verba eórum.

SECRET

Venerating the everlasting glory of Thy holy Apostles, Simon and Jude, we beseech Thee, O Lord, that, being purified by these sacred mysteries, it may the more worthily be celebrated by us. Through our Lord.

Gloriam, Dómine, sanctórum Apostolórum tuórum Simónis et Judæ perpétuam venerántes: quæsumus; ut eam, sacris mystériis expiáti, dignius celebrémus. Per Dominum.

PREFACE OF THE APOSTLES

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, to entreat Thee humbly, O Lord, that Thou wouldst not desert Thy flock. O everlasting Shepherd; but through Thy blessed Apostles, wouldst keep it under Thy constant protection; that it may be governed by those same rulers, whom as vicars of Thy work, Thou didst set over it to be its pastors. And therefore with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of The glory, evermore saying…

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutare. Te Domine supplicitur exorare, ut gregem tuum, pastor æterne, non deseras: sed per beatos Apostolos tuos continua protectione custodias. Ut iisdem rectoribus gubernetur, quos operis tui vicarious eidem contulisti præsse pastores. Et ideo cum Angelis et Archangelis, cum Thronis et Dominationibus, cumque omni militia cœlestis exercitus, hymnum gloriæ tuæ canimus, sine fine dicéntes…

Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus Dóminus, Deus Sábaoth. Pleni sunt coeli et terra glória tua. Hosánna in excélsis. Benedíctus, qui venit in nómine Dómini. Hosánna in excélsis.

COMMUNION - Matthew 19: 28

You who have followed Me shall sit on seats judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Vos, qui secúti estis me, sedébitis super sedes, judicántes duódecim tribus Israel.

POSTCOMMUNION

Having received Thy sacraments, we beseech and supplicate Thee, O Lord, that, by the intercession of Thy blessed Apostles Simon and Jude, the things which we do for the veneration of their glory may profit us unto our healing. Through our Lord.

Perceptis, Dómine, sacraméntis, supplíciter exorámus; ut, intercedéntibus beátis Apóstolis tuis Simóne et Juda, quæ pro illórum veneránda gérimus passióne, nobis profíciant ad medélam. Per Dominum.
