God in His holy place; God Who maketh men of one mind to dwell in a house: He shall give power and strength to His people.
Psalm: Let God arise and let His enemies be scattered: and let them that hate Him flee from before His face.
Glory be to the Father. God in His holy place; God Who maketh men of one mind to dwell in a house: He shall give power and strength to His people.
Almighty and everlasting God, Who in the abundance of Thy kindness art wont to go beyond our merits and our prayers: pour down Thy mercy on us: forgive us aught whereof our conscience is afraid, and grant us all we dare not ask in prayer. Through our Lord.
Brethren: I make known unto you, the Gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand; By which also you are saved, if you hold fast after what manner I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures: And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day, according to the Scriptures: And that He was seen by Cephas; and after that by the eleven.
Then He was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once: of whom many remain until this present, and some are fallen asleep. After that, He was seen by James, then by all the Apostles. And last of all, He was seen also by me, as by one born out of due time. For I am the least of the Apostles, who am not worthy to be called an Apostle, because I persecuted the Church of God. But by the grace of God, I am what I am; and His grace in me hath not been void, but I have labored more abundantly than all they: yet not I, but the grace of God with me.
In God hath my heart confided, and I have been helped; and my flesh hath flourished again; and with my will I will give praise to Him. Unto Thee have I cried, O Lord: O my God, be not Thou silent: depart not from me.
Alleluia, alleluia. Rejoice in God our helper: sing aloud to the God of Jacob, take a pleasant psalm with the harp. Alleluia.
At that time, Jesus going out of the coasts of Tyre, He came by Sidon to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis. And they bring to Him one deaf and dumb; and they besought Him that He would lay His hand upon him. And taking him from the multitude apart, He put His fingers into his ears, and spitting, He touched his tongue: And looking up to heaven, He groaned, and said to him: Ephpheta, which is, Be thou opened. And immediately his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke right.
And He charged them that they should tell no man. But the more He charged them, so much the more a great deal did they publish it. And so much the more did they wonder, saying: He hath done all things well; He hath made both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
I will extol Thee, O Lord, for Thou hast upheld me; and hast not made mine enemies to rejoice over me: O Lord, I have cried to Thee, and Thou hast healed me.
Look graciously, we beseech Thee, O Lord, upon our service; that what we offer may be a gift acceptable to Thee, and a support to us in our weakness. Through our Lord.
Honor the Lord with thy substance, and with the first of all thy fruits: and thy barns shall be filled with abundance, and thy presses shall run over with wine.
By the reception of Thy Sacrament, we beseech Thee, O Lord, may we find support for mind and body: so that we may be healed in both and glory in the fullness of the heavenly remedy. Through our Lord.
