Réspice in me, et miserére mei, Dómine:

Deus meus, in te confído, non erubéscam.
[Psalm 24:1-2]
Glória Patri …
Réspice in me …
Look Thou upon me, O Lord, and have mercy on me;
for I am alone and poor.
See my abjection and my labour;
and forgive me all my sins, O my God.

Ps. To Thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul:
in Thee, my God, I put my trust;
let me not be ashamed.

Look Thou upon me …
Collect:
Protéctor in te sperántium, Deus, sine quo nihil est válidum, nihil sanctum: multíplica super nos misericórdiam tuam, ut, te rectóre, te duce, sic transeámus per bona temporália, ut non amittámus ætérna. Per Dóminum.
O God, the protector of all that trust in Thee, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy, multiply Thy mercies upon us; that having Thee for our ruler and guide, we may so pass through things temporal, that we finally lose not those which are eternal. Through our Lord.
Epistle:
[I Peter 5:6-11] Caríssime: Humiliámini sub poténti manu Dei, ut vos exáltet in témpore visitatiónis: omnem sollicitúdinem vestram projiciéntes in eum, quóniam ipsi cura est de vobis. Sóbrii estóte et vigiláte: quia adversárius vester diábolus tamquam leo rúgiens círcuit, quærens quem dévoret: cui resístite fortes in fide: sciéntes eámdem passiónem ei, quæ in mundo est, vestræ fraternitáti fíeri. Deus autem omnis grátiæ, qui vocávit nos in ætérnam suam glóriam in Christo Jesu, módicum passos ipse perfíciet, confirmábit solidabitque. Ipsi glória et impérium in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
[I Peter 5:6-11] Dearly beloved: Be you humbled under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in the time of visitation; casting all your care upon Him, for He hath care of you. Be sober and watch, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, gœth about seeking whom he may devour. Whom resist ye, strong in faith; knowing that the same affliction befalls your brethren who are in the world. But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto the eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, will Himself perfect you, and confirm you, and establish you. To Him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.

[Psalm 54:23,17,19] Jacta cogitátum tuum in Dómino: et ipse te enutriet. V. Dum clamárem ad Dóminum, exaudívit vocem meam ab his qui appropínquant mihi.
[Psalm 54:23,17,19] Cast thy care upon the Lord and He shall sustain Thee. V. When I cried to the Lord He heard my voice, from them that draw near to me.

[Psalm 7:12] Alleluia, alleluia. V. God is a just judge, strong and patient; is He angry every day? Alleluia.
Gospel:
[Luke 15:1-10] In illo témpore: Erant appropinquántes ad Jesum publicáni, et peccatóres, ut audírent illum. Et murmurábant pharisǽi et scribæ, dicéntes: Quia hic peccatóres récipit, et mandúcat cum illis. Et ait ad illos parábolam istam, dicens: Quis ex vobis homo, qui habet centum oves: et si perdíderit unam ex illis, nonne dimíttit nonaginta nóvem in desérto, et vadit ad illam, quæ períerat, donec invéniat eam? Et cum invénerit eam, impónit in húmeros suos gaudens: et véniens domum, cónvocat amícos, et vicínos, dicens illis: Congratulámini mihi, quia invéni ovem meam, quæ períerat? Dico vobis, quod ita gáudium erit in cœlo super uno peccatóre pœniténtiam agénte, quam super nonaginta nóvem justis, qui non índigent pœniténtia. Aut quæ múlier habens drachmas decem, si perdíderit drachmam unam, nonne accéndit lucérnam, et evérrit domum, et quærit diligénter, donec invéniat? Et cum invénerit, cónvocat amícas et vicínas, dicens: Congratulámini mihi, quia invéni drachmam quam perdíderam? Ita dico vobis: gáudium erit coram Angelis Dei super uno peccatóre pœniténtiam agénte.
[Luke 15:1-10] At that time, the publicans and sinners drew near unto Jesus to hear Him: and the Pharisees and Scribes murmured, saying: This man receiveth sinners and eateth with them. And He spoke to them this parable, saying: What man is there of you that hath a hundred sheep, and if he shall lose one of them, doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the desert, and go after that which was lost, until he find it? And when he hath found it, lay it upon his shoulders rejoicing, and coming home, call together his friends and neighbours, saying to them: Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost? I say to you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven upon one sinner that doth penance, more than upon ninety-nine just who need not penance. Or what woman having ten groats, if she lose one groat, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she find it? And when she hath found it, call together her friends and neighbours, saying: Rejoice with me, because I have found the groat which I had lost? So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance.
Offertory:
Sperent in te omnes, qui novérunt nomen tuum, Dómine:
quóniam non derelínquis quæréntes te:
psállite Dómino, qui hábitat in Sion:
quóniam non est oblítus oratiónem páuperum.
[Psalm 9:11,12,13]
Let them trust in Thee, all who know Thy name, O Lord: for Thou hast not forsaken them that seek Thee: sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: for He hath not forgotten the cry of the poor. [Psalm 9:11,12,13]
Secret:
Réspice, Dómine, múnera supplicántis Ecclésiæ: et salúti credéntium perpétua sanctificatióne suménda concéde. Per Dóminum.
Look, O Lord, upon the offerings of Thy suppliant Church, and grant to Thy faithful receiving them, that they may avail unto salvation. Through our Lord.
Preface: Preface of the Most Holy Trinity
Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubique grátias ágere, Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Qui cum unigénito Fílio tuo, et Spíritu Sancto, unus es Deus, unus es Dóminus: non in unius singularitáte persónæ, sed in unius Trinitáte substántiæ. Quod enim de tua glória, revelánte te, crédimus, hoc de Fílio tuo, hoc de Spiritu Sancto, sine differéntia discretiónis sentímus. Ut in confessióne veræ, sempiternæque Deitátis, et in persónis propríetas et in esséntia únitas, et in majestáte adorétur æquálitas. Quam laudant Angelí, atque Archángeli, Chérubim quoque ac Séraphim: qui non cessant clamáre quotidíe, una voce dicéntes: Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus.
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, holy Lord,
Father almighty, eternal God:
Who, together with Thine only-begotten Son and the Holy Ghost, art one God, one Lord:
not in the Oneness of a single Person, but in the Trinity of one substance.
For what by Thy revelation we believe of Thy glory, the same do we believe of Thy Son, the same of the Holy Ghost, without difference or separation;
so that in confessing the true and eternal Godhead, in It we should adore distinction in persons, unity in Essence, and equality in Majesty:
in praise of which Angels and Archangels, Cherubim also and Seraphim day and night exclaim, without end and with one voice saying:
Holy, Holy, Holy.
Communion:
Dico vobis: gáudium est Angelis Dei super uno peccatóre pœniténtiam agénte. [Luke 15:10]
I say to you: there is joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance. [Luke 15:10]
Postcommunion:
Sancta tua nos, Dómine, sumpta vivíficent: et misericórdiæ sempitérnæ prǽparent expiátos. Per Dóminum.
May the Sacrament which we have received quicken us, O Lord: and atoning for our sins, prepare us to share everlastingly in Thy mercies. Through our Lord.
