| # | Douay-Rheims | Vulgate |
| 5 | And the apostles said to the Lord: Increase our faith. | et dixerunt apostoli Domino adauge nobis fidem |
| 6 | And the Lord said: If you had faith like to a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this mulberry tree: Be thou rooted up and be thou transplanted into the sea. And it would obey you. | dixit autem Dominus si haberetis fidem sicut granum sinapis diceretis huic arbori moro eradicare et transplantare in mare et oboediret vobis |
| 7 | But which of you, having a servant ploughing or feeding cattle, will say to him, when he is come from the field: Immediately go. Sit down to meat. | quis autem vestrum habens servum arantem aut pascentem qui regresso de agro dicet illi statim transi recumbe |
| 8 | And will not rather say to him: Make ready my supper and gird thyself and serve me, whilst I eat and drink; and afterwards thou shalt eat and drink? | et non dicet ei para quod cenem et praecinge te et ministra mihi donec manducem et bibam et post haec tu manducabis et bibes |
| 9 | Doth he thank that servant for doing the things which he commanded him? | numquid gratiam habet servo illi quia fecit quae sibi imperaverat non puto |
| 10 | I think not. So you also, when you shall have done all these things that are commanded you, say: We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which we ought to do. | sic et vos cum feceritis omnia quae praecepta sunt vobis dicite servi inutiles sumus quod debuimus facere fecimus |
(*) "I think not" belongs to v. 9 in Vulgate
Question: I know that the Pope and many of the faithful prayed the rosary the day of the battle.
I thought I had read at one time that the sailors/soldiers were instructed (on the Christian ships in the battle) to pray the Rosary as they went into battle.
But I have had trouble finding this anywhere.
I believe the Pope prayed the rosary at Saint Mary Major Basilica that day...
