| 5 | And some saying of the temple that it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said: | et quibusdam dicentibus de templo quod lapidibus bonis et donis ornatum esset dixit |
| 6 | These things which you see, the days will come in which there shall not be left a stone upon a stone that shall not be thrown down. | haec quae videtis venient dies in quibus non relinquetur lapis super lapidem qui non destruatur |
| 7 | And they asked him, saying: Master, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign when they shall begin to come to pass? | interrogaverunt autem illum dicentes praeceptor quando haec erunt et quod signum cum fieri incipient |
| 8 | Who said: Take heed you be not seduced: for many will come in my name, saying: I am he and the time is at hand. Go ye not therefore after them. | qui dixit videte ne seducamini multi enim venient in nomine meo dicentes quia ego sum et tempus adpropinquavit nolite ergo ire post illos |
| 9 | And when you shall hear of wars and seditions, be not terrified. These things must first come to pass: but the end is not yet presently. | cum autem audieritis proelia et seditiones nolite terreri oportet primum haec fieri sed non statim finis |
| 10 | Then he said to them: Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. | tunc dicebat illis surget gens contra gentem et regnum adversus regnum |
| 11 | And there shall be great earthquakes in divers places and pestilences and famines and terrors from heaven: and there shall be great signs. | terraemotus magni erunt per loca et pestilentiae et fames terroresque de caelo et signa magna erunt |

for many will come in my name, saying, I am he ... .......................... †JMJ† .......................... -- Tuesday, 34th Week in Ordinary Time -- ....................... † AMDG † ....................... I confess to almighty God, and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have sinned through my own fault --strike the breast— in my thoughts and in my words in what I have done, and in what I have failed to do; and I ask blessed Mary, ever virgin, all the angels and saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God. FIRST READING – Apoc 14:14-19 The time to reap has come because the earth's harvest is fully ripe. And the smoke of their torments shall ascend up for ever and ever: neither have they rest day nor night, who have adored the beast, and his image, and whoever receiveth the character of his name. 12 Here is the patience of the saints, who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. 13 And I heard a voice from heaven, saying to me: Write: Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord. From henceforth now, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; for their works follow them. And I saw, and behold a white cloud; and upon the cloud one sitting like to the Son of man, having on his head a crown of gold, and in his hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out from the temple crying with a loud voice to him that sat upon the cloud: Thrust in thy sickle, and reap, because the hour is come to reap: for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And he that sat on the cloud thrust his sickle into the earth, and the earth was reaped. And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. And another angel came out from the altar, who had power over fire; and he cried with a loud voice to him that had the sharp sickle, saying: Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vineyard of the earth; because the grapes thereof are ripe. And the angel thrust in his sharp sickle into the earth, and gathered the vineyard of the earth, and cast it into the great press of the wrath of God: 20 And the press was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the press, up to the horses' bridles, for a thousand and six hundred furlongs. ================================================== 13 "Die in the Lord"... It is understood of the martyrs who die for the Lord. RESPONSORIAL PSALM – Ps 95:10, 11-12, 13 Venit Dóminus iudicáre terram. He shall judge the world with justice. 1 A canticle for David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: sing to the Lord, all the earth. 2 Sing ye to the Lord and bless his name: shew forth his salvation from day to day. 3 Declare his glory among the Gentiles: his wonders among all people. 4 For the Lord is great, and exceedingly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. 5 For all the gods of the Gentiles are devils: but the Lord made the heavens. 6 Praise and beauty are before him: holiness and majesty in his sanctuary. 7 Bring ye to the Lord, O ye kindreds of the Gentiles, bring ye to the Lord glory and honour: 8 Bring to the Lord glory unto his name. Bring up sacrifices, and come into his courts: 9 Adore ye the Lord in his holy court. Let all the earth be moved at his presence. Say ye among the Gentiles, the Lord hath reigned. For he hath corrected the world, which shall not be moved: he will judge the people with justice. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad , let the sea be moved, and the fulness thereof: The fields and all things that are in them shall be joyful. Then shall all the trees of the woods rejoice Before the face of the Lord, because he cometh: because he cometh to judge the earth. He shall judge the world with justice, and the people with his truth. ================================================ 1 "When the house was built"... Alluding to that time, and then ordered to be sung: but principally relating to the building of the church of Christ, after our redemption from the captivity of Satan. ALLELUIA – Rv 2:10c Esto fidelis usque ad mortem, dicit Dóminus, et dabo tibi corónam vitæ. R. Alleluia, alleluia Be thou faithful until death: and I will give thee the crown of life. R. Alleluia, alleluia GOSPEL – Lk 21:5-11 There will not be left a stone upon another stone. And some saying of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said: These things which you see, the days will come in which there shall not be left a stone upon a stone that shall not be thrown down. And they asked him, saying: Master, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when they shall begin to come to pass? Who said: Take heed you be not seduced; for many will come in my name, saying, I am he; and the time is at hand: go ye not therefore after them. And when you shall hear of wars and seditions, be not terrified: these things must first come to pass; but the end is not yet presently. Then he said to them: Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there shall be great earthquakes in divers places, and pestilences, and famines, and terrors from heaven; and there shall be great signs. |
Thanks to you both for your faithfulness.
