A Reading from the Book of the Acts of the Apostles 8: 14-17
Cum autem audissent apostoli qui erant Hierosolymis quia recepit Samaria verbum Dei, miserunt ad illos Petrum et Iohannem. Qui, cum venissent oraverunt pro ipsis ut acciperent Spiritum Sanctum.
Nondum enim in quemquam illorum venerat: sed baptizati tantum erant in nomine Domini Iesu. Tunc inponebant manus super illos et accipiebant Spiritum Sanctum.
|
Now, when the apostles, who were in Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John. Who, when they were come, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Ghost. For he was not as yet come upon any of them: but they were only baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they laid their hands upon them: and they received the Holy Ghost.

The Holy Gospel of Our Lord, Jesus Christ, according to Saint John 10: 1-10
Amen, amen, dico vobis: Qui non intrat per ostium in ovile ovium sed ascendit aliunde, ille fur est et latro. Qui autem intrat per ostium pastor est ovium. Huic ostiarius aperit et oves vocem eius audiunt et proprias oves vocat nominatim et educit eas. Et cum proprias oves emiserit ante eas vadit et oves illum sequuntur quia sciunt vocem eius. Alienum autem non sequuntur sed fugient ab eo quia non noverunt vocem alienorum.
Hoc proverbium dixit eis Iesus illi autem non cognoverunt quid loqueretur eis.
|
Amen, amen, I say to you: He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold but climbeth up another way, the same is a thief and a robber. But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the porter openeth: and the sheep hear his voice. And he calleth his own sheep by name and leadeth them out. And when he hath let out his own sheep, he goeth before them: and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice. But a stranger they follow not, but fly from him, because they know not the voice of strangers. This proverb Jesus spoke to them. But they understood not what he spoke.

XI. THE HOLY ANGELS
ST MICHAEL ARCHANGEL
(i. 200 Days, once a day. ii. Plenary, once a month. I, II, IV. (See Instructions.) 289 Pius VII, May 6, 1817.)
TE splendor et virtus PATRIS,
Te vita JESU, cordium,
Ab ore qui pendent tuo,
Laudamus inter Angelos,
Tibi mille densa millium
Ducum corona militat:
Sed explicat victor crucem
Michael salutis signifer.
Draconis hic dirum caput
In ima pellit tartara,
Ducemque cum rebellibus
Coelesti ab arce fulminat.
Contra ducem superbiæ
Sequamur hunc nos Principem,
Ut detur ex AGNI throno
Nobis corona gloriæ.
PATRI, simulque FILIO,
Tibi que, SANCTE SPIRITUS,
Sicut fuit, sit jugiter
Sæclum per omne gloria Amen.
Ant. Princeps gloriosissime, Michael Archangele,
esto memor nostri: hic et ubique semper precare
pro nobis FILIUM DEI
V/. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi, DEUS
meus.
R/. Adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum, et
confitebor nomini tuo
Oremus.
DEUS, qui miro ordine angelorum ministeria,
hominumque dispensas: concede propitius, ut a
quibus tibi ministrantibus in coelo semper
assistitur, ab his in terra vita nostra muniatur. Per
CHRISTUM DOMINUM, etc.
O JESU! life-spring of the soul !
The FATHER’S Power and Glory bright !
Thee with the Angels we extol ;
From Thee they draw their life and light.
Thy thousand, thousand hosts are spread, [
Embattled o’er the azure sky;
But Michael bears thy standard dread,
And lifts the mighty Cross on high.
He in that Sign the rebel powers
Did with their Dragon Prince expel ;
And hurled them from
the Heaven’s high towers,
Down like a thunderbolt to hell.
Grant us with Michael still, O LORD,
Against the Prince of Pride to fight ;
So may a crown be our reward,
Before the LAMB’S pure throne of light.
To GOD the FATHER and the SON,
Who rose from death, all glory be;
With Thee, O blessed PARACLETE,
Henceforth through all eternity. Amen.
Ant. Most glorious Prince, Michael the Archangel,
be mindful of us: pray for us always both here and
everywhere to the SON of GOD.
V/. In the sight of the Angels I will sing psalms to
Thee, O my GOD.
R/. I will adore at thy holy temple, and will confess
to thy name.
Let us pray.
O GOD, who disposest the services of Angels and
men in a wonderful order; mercifully grant that
those who ever stand before Thee, ministering to
Thee in Heaven, may themselves also protect our
life here upon earth. Through CHRIST our LORD.
Amen.
(From the Raccolta, 1910)
|
Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio; contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium. Imperat illi Deus; supplices deprecamur: tuque, Princeps militiae coelestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo, divina virtute in infernum detrude. Amen.
|
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in the battle, be our safeguard and protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
|
St. Michael Chaplet
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell, but most of all because they offend Thee, my God, Who art All Good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, by the help of Thy Grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life.

MAGNIFICAT * anima mea DOMINUM.
Et exultavit spiritus meus * in DEO salutari meo.

Quia fecit mihi magna, qui potens est, * et sanctum nomen ejus.
Et misericordia ejus a progenie in progenies * timentibus eum.
Fecit potentiam in brachio suo: * dispersit superbos mente cordis sui.
Deposuit potentes de sede, * et exaltavit humiles.
Esurientes implevit bonis, * et divites dimisit inanes.
Suscepit Israel puerum suum, * recordatus misericordiæ suæ.
Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros, * Abraham et semini ejus in saecula.

AD DOMINUM, cum tribularer, clamavi : * et exaudivit me.
Domine, libera animam meam a labiis iniquis,* et a lingua dolosa.
Quid detur tibi, aut quid apponatur tibi, * ad linguam dolosam?
Sagittæ potentis acutæ, * cum carbonibus desolatoriis.
Heu mihi, quia incolatus meus prolongatus est! habitavi cum habitantibus Cedar: * multum incola fuit
anima mea.
Cum his, qui oderunt pacem, eram pacificus : * cum loquebar illis, impugnabant me gratis.
Gloria PATRI, etc.

RETRIBUE servo tuo, vivifica me : * et custodiam sermones tuos.
Revela oculos meos, * et considerabo mirabilia de lege tua.
Incola ego sum in terra, * non abscondas a me mandata tua.
Concupivit anima mea desiderare justificationes tuas * in omni tempore.
Increpasti superbos: * maledicti qui declinant a mandatis tuis.
Aufer a me opprobrium, et contemptum, * quia testimonia tua exquisivi.
Etenim sederunt principes, et adversus me loquebantur: * servus autem tuus exercebatur in
justificationibus tuis.
Nam et testimonia tua meditatio mea est: * et consilium meum justificationes tuae.
Adhæsit pavimento anima mea: * vivifica me secundum verbum tuum.
Vias meas enuntiavi, et exaudisti me: * doce me justificationes tuas.
Viam justificationum tuarum instrue me, * et exercebor in mirabilibus tuis.
Dormitavit anima mea præ tædio: * confirma me in verbis tuis.
Viam iniquitatis amove a me, * et de lege tua miserere mei.
Viam veritatis elegi: * judicia tua non sum oblitus.
Adhæsi testimoniis tuis, DOMINE:
* noli me confundere.iam mandatorum tuorum cucurri, * cum dilatasti cor meum.
Gloria PATRI, etc.

Psalm, cxxv.
IN convertendo DOMINUS captivitatem Sion, * facti sumus sicut consolati.
Tunc repletum est gaudio os nostrum, * et lingua nostra exultatione.
Tunc dicent inter gentes: * magnificavit DOMINUS facere cum eis.
Magnificavit DOMINUS facere nobiscum: * facti sumus lætantes.
Converte, DOMINE, captivitatem nostram, * sicut torrens in austro.
Qui seminantin lacrymis,*in exultatione metent.
Euntes ibant, et flebant, * mittentes seminasua.
Venientes autem venient cum exultatione * portantes manipulos suos.
Gloria PATRI, etc.

Psalm, cxxii.
AD te levavi oculos meos, * qui habitas in coelis.
Ecce sicut oculi servorum * in manibus dominorum suorum.
Sicut oculi ancillæ in manibus dominæ suæ: * ita oculi nostri ad DOMINUM DEUM nostrum, donec
misereatur nostri.
Miserere nostri, DOMINE, miserere nostri, *quia multum repleti sumus despectione.
Quia multum repleta est anima nostra, * opprobrium abundantibus, et despectio superbis.
Gloria PATRI, etc.

protectione lætantur; ejus pia intercessione a cunclis malis liberentur in terris, et ad gaudia aeterna
pervenire mereantur in caelis. Per CHRISTUM DOMINUM, etc.
