00:17When a wicked person turns from the wickedness he has committed, and does what is just and right, he will
00:26preserve his life.
00:30For I am aware of my rebellious acts, I am forever conscious of my sin.
00:39Hide your face from my sins, wipe away all my guilt.
00:47The sacrifices God desires are a humble spirit, O God, a humble and repentant heart you will not reject.
01:01Dearly beloved brothers and sisters, the scripture moves us in sundry places to acknowledge and confess our many sins and
01:10wickedness.
01:12We should not justify nor hide them before the face of Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, but confess them with
01:20a humble, lowly, penitent and obedient heart.
01:24To the end that we may obtain forgiveness of the same, by his infinite goodness and mercy.
01:35Although we ought always to humbly acknowledge our sins before God, we should do this particularly when we assemble and
01:43meet together,
01:44to give thanks for the great benefits we have received at his hands.
01:48To give him most worthy praise, to hear his most holy word, and to ask those things which are truly
01:57necessary as well for the body as the soul.
02:02Therefore I pray and ask you, who are present here today, to accompany me with a pure heart and humble
02:09voice to the throne of the heavenly grace, as we say together.
02:16Almighty and most merciful Father, we have erred and strayed from your ways like lost sheep.
02:23We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts.
02:29We have offended against your holy laws.
02:32We have failed to do those things which we ought to have done, and we have done things which we
02:39ought not to have done.
02:44But you, O Lord, have mercy upon us, miserable sinners.
02:49Spare those, O God, who confess their faults.
02:53Restore those who are truly penitent, according to your promises declared to mankind in Christ Jesus our Lord.
03:03Grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, that we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, to
03:12the glory of your holy name. Amen.
03:18Grant, we beseech you, merciful Lord, to your faithful people, pardon and peace, that they may be cleansed from all
03:26their sins, and serve you with a quiet mind.
03:30Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
03:38Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be your name.
03:43Your kingdom come, your will be done, in earth as it is in heaven.
03:49Give us this day our daily bread.
03:52Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
03:59Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
04:05For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
04:15O Lord, open our lips, and our mouths shall sing out your praise.
04:23O God, make speed to save us.
04:27O Lord, make haste to help us.
04:33Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
04:39As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
04:45Amen.
04:48Praise the Lord.
04:50The Lord's name be praised.
04:56Psalm 82
04:59God stands in the assembly of El.
05:03In the midst of the gods he renders judgment.
05:06He says,
05:07How long will you make unjust legal decisions and show favoritism to the wicked?
05:13Defend the cause of the poor and the fatherless.
05:17Vindicate the oppressed and suffering.
05:20Rescue the poor and needy.
05:22Deliver them from the power of the wicked.
05:25They neither know nor understand.
05:27They stumble around in the dark, while all the foundations of the earth crumble.
05:33I thought, you are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High.
05:38Yet, you will die like mortals.
05:41You will fall like all other rulers.
05:45Rise up, O God, and execute judgment on the earth.
05:49For you own all the nations.
05:53Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning,
05:59is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
06:03Amen.
06:07Psalm 83
06:11O God, do not be silent.
06:13Do not ignore us.
06:15Do not be inactive, O God.
06:17For look, your enemies are making a commotion.
06:21Those who hate you are hostile.
06:24They carefully plot against your people, and make plans to harm the ones you cherish.
06:30They say, come on, let's annihilate them, so they are no longer a nation.
06:35Then, the name of Israel will be remembered no more.
06:40Yes, they devise a unified strategy.
06:44They form an alliance against you.
06:47It includes the tents of Edom, and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,
06:54Jebal, Ammon, and Amalek, Philistere, and the inhabitants of Tyre.
07:00Even Assyria has allied with them, lending its strength to the descendants of Lot.
07:06Do to them, as you did to Midian, as you did to Caesara and Jebin at the Kishon River.
07:14They were destroyed at Endor.
07:16Their corpses were like manure on the ground.
07:20Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeb, and all their rulers like Zeber and Zalmunna,
07:26who said, let us take over the pastures of God.
07:31O my God, make them like dead thistles, like dead weeds blown away by the wind.
07:38Like the fire that burns down the forest, or the flames that consume the mountainsides.
07:44Chase them with your gale winds, and terrify them with your windstorm.
07:49Cover their faces with shame, that they might seek you, O Lord.
07:55May they be humiliated and continually terrified.
07:59May they die in shame.
08:02Then they will know that you alone are the Lord, the Most High over all the earth.
08:09Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
08:13as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
08:20Amen.
08:24Psalm 84
08:27How lovely is the place where you live, O Lord of Heaven's armies!
08:32I desperately want to be in the courts of the Lord's temple.
08:37My heart and my entire being shout for joy to the living God.
08:43Even the birds find a home there, and the swallows build a nest,
08:47where she can protect her young near your altars.
08:50O Lord of Heaven's armies, my King and my God!
08:56How blessed are those who live in your temple, and praise you continually!
09:01How blessed are those who find their strength in you,
09:05and long to travel the roads that lead to your temple!
09:10As they pass through the Bacar Valley, he provides a spring for them.
09:15The rain even covers it with pools of water.
09:20They are sustained as they travel along.
09:23Each one appears before God in Zion.
09:27O Lord God of Heaven's armies, hear my prayer.
09:31Listen, O God of Jacob!
09:33O God, take notice of our shield.
09:36Show concern for your chosen King.
09:40Certainly spending just one day in your temple courts
09:44is better than spending a thousand elsewhere.
09:48I would rather stand at the entrance to the temple of my God
09:51than live in the tents of the wicked.
09:55For the Lord God is our sovereign protector.
09:58The Lord bestows favour and honour.
10:01He withholds no good thing from those who have integrity.
10:07O Lord of Heaven's armies, how blessed are those who trust in you.
10:12Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
10:17as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
10:21world without end.
10:23Amen.
10:30The Prophet Daniel, Chapter 5
10:35Belshazzar, the king, made a great feast for a thousand of his lords,
10:39and drank wine before the thousand.
10:45Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine,
10:47commanded that the golden and silver vessels
10:49which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken from the temple
10:53that was in Jerusalem,
10:54be brought to him,
10:57that the king and his lords, his wives, and his concubines
11:00might drink from them.
11:04Then they brought the golden vessels
11:06that were taken out of the temple
11:08of God's house, which was at Jerusalem,
11:10and the king and his lords, his wives, and his concubines
11:14drank from them.
11:16They drank wine and praised the gods
11:18of gold, silver, brass, iron, wood, and of stone.
11:25In that very hour,
11:26the fingers of a man's hand came out
11:29and wrote near the lampstand
11:31on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace.
11:36The king saw the part of the hand that wrote,
11:40and the king's face was changed in him,
11:43and his thoughts troubled him.
11:46The joints of his thighs were loosened
11:48and his knees struck together.
11:52The king cried aloud to bring in
11:55the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers,
11:59saying to the wise men of Babylon,
12:01Whoever reads this writing
12:03and shows me its interpretation
12:05shall be clothed with purple
12:07and have a chain of gold around his neck
12:10and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
12:15All the king's wise men came in,
12:17but they could not read the writing
12:18and could not make known to the king
12:26and his face was changed in him,
12:28and his lords were perplexed.
12:33The queen, by reason of the words of the king
12:36and his lords, came into the banquet house.
12:40The queen spoke and said,
12:42O king, live forever.
12:44Do not let your thoughts trouble you
12:46nor let your face be changed.
12:49There is a man in your kingdom
12:51in whom is the spirit of the holy gods.
12:56In the days of your father,
12:59light, understanding, and wisdom,
13:01like the wisdom of the gods,
13:02were to be found in him.
13:06The king, Nebuchadnezzar, your father,
13:08yes, the king, your father,
13:10made him master of magicians,
13:12enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers,
13:15because an excellent spirit,
13:18knowledge, and understanding,
13:20interpretation of dreams,
13:22the showing of dark sentences,
13:23and the dissolution of doubt,
13:25were to be found in this same Daniel,
13:28whom the king named Belteshazzar.
13:33Now let Daniel be called,
13:35and he will show you the interpretation.
13:39And so Daniel was brought in before the king,
13:42and the king spoke and said to Daniel,
13:44Are you the Daniel of the children
13:46of the captivity of Judah,
13:47to whom my father the king
13:50brought out of Judah?
13:52I have heard that you,
13:54that the spirit of the gods is in you,
13:58and that light, understanding,
13:59and excellent wisdom,
14:00are to be found in you.
14:03Now the wise men,
14:05the enchanters,
14:05have been brought in before me,
14:07that they should read this writing,
14:08and make known to me its interpretation.
14:12But they could not show
14:13the interpretation of this thing.
14:16But I have heard of you,
14:18that you can give interpretations,
14:21and dissolve doubts.
14:24Now, if you could read the writing,
14:26and make known to me its interpretation,
14:29you will be clothed with purple,
14:31and have a chain of gold around your neck,
14:34and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
14:38This is the word of the Lord.
14:41Thanks be to God.
14:55Mary said,
14:56My soul exalts the Lord,
14:59and my spirit has begun to rejoice in God my Saviour,
15:03because he has looked upon the humble state of his servant.
15:09For from now on,
15:11all generations will call me blessed,
15:13because he who is mighty
15:15has done great things for me,
15:17and holy is his name.
15:20From generation to generation,
15:23he is merciful to those who fear him.
15:26He has demonstrated power with his arm.
15:30He has scattered those whose pride wells up
15:33from the sheer arrogance of their hearts.
15:36He has brought down the mighty from their thrones,
15:39and has lifted up those of lowly position.
15:43He has filled the hungry with good things,
15:46and has sent the rich away empty.
15:49He has helped his servant Israel,
15:52remembering his mercy,
15:54as he promised to our ancestors,
15:57to Abraham,
15:58and to his descendants for ever.
16:02Glory be to the Father,
16:04and to the Son,
16:04and to the Holy Spirit,
16:06as it was in the beginning,
16:09is now,
16:10and ever shall be,
16:11world without end.
16:13Amen.
16:21The Gospel according to Saint Mark,
16:23chapter 13.
16:27When you see the unclean thing,
16:29which makes destruction,
16:30in the place where it has no right to be,
16:33let this be clear to the reader,
16:36then let those who are in Judea
16:38go quickly into the mansions.
16:40Let the one who is on the housetop
16:42not go down,
16:43or go in,
16:44or take anything out of his house.
16:47Let not him who is in the field
16:49go back to get his coat.
16:52It will be hard for women who are with child,
16:55and for her who has a baby at the breast,
16:57in those days.
16:59Say a prayer that it may not be in the winter,
17:02for in those days there will be sorrow,
17:04such as there has not been,
17:07from the time that God made the world until now,
17:11and will not be ever again.
17:15If the Lord had not made the time short,
17:18no flesh would have been kept from destruction,
17:21but because of the saints
17:22he has made the time short.
17:25If any man says to you,
17:26see, here is Christ,
17:27or see there,
17:29have no faith,
17:30because there will be false Christs
17:32and false prophets,
17:33and they will give signs and wonders
17:35in the hope of turning even the saints
17:38from the true way.
17:40But take care,
17:42see,
17:43I have made all things clear to you
17:45before the time.
17:48In those days,
17:49after that time of trouble,
17:50the sun will be made dark,
17:52and the moon will not give her light.
17:55The stars will be falling from heaven,
17:57and the powers which are in the heavens
17:59will be moved.
18:02Then they will see the Son of Man
18:04coming in clouds with great power and glory.
18:08He will send out the angels,
18:10and will get together his saints
18:12from the four winds,
18:13from the farthest part of the earth
18:16to the farthest part of heaven.
18:20This is the word of the Lord.
18:23Thanks be to God.
18:35Now according to your word,
18:38Sovereign Lord,
18:39permit your servant to depart in peace.
18:42For my eyes have seen your salvation
18:45that you have prepared
18:47in the presence of all peoples,
18:50a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
18:53and for glory to your people Israel.
18:58Glory be to the Father,
19:00and to the Son,
19:01and to the Holy Spirit,
19:03as it was in the beginning,
19:04is now, and ever shall be,
19:07world without end.
19:08Amen.
19:13I believe in God the Father Almighty,
19:17maker of heaven and earth,
19:19and in Jesus Christ,
19:21his only Son, our Lord,
19:23who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
19:26born of the Virgin Mary,
19:28suffered unto Pontius Pilate,
19:31was crucified, dead, and buried.
19:35He descended into hell.
19:37On the third day,
19:38he rose again from the dead.
19:40He ascended into heaven,
19:43and is sitting at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.
19:48From there he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
19:52I believe in the Holy Spirit,
19:55the Holy Catholic Church,
19:56the communion of saints,
19:58the forgiveness of sins,
20:01the resurrection of the body,
20:03and the life everlasting.
20:05Amen.
20:11The Lord be with you,
20:14and with your spirit.
20:18Let us pray.
20:21Lord, have mercy upon us.
20:25Christ, have mercy upon us.
20:29Lord, have mercy upon us.
20:36Our Father, who is in heaven,
20:39holy is your name.
20:42May your kingdom come.
20:43May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
20:49Give us this day our daily bread.
20:51Forgive us our trespasses,
20:53as we forgive those who trespass against us.
20:58Lead us not into temptation,
21:00but deliver us from evil.
21:03For yours is the kingdom,
21:06the power and the glory,
21:08for ever and ever.
21:11Amen.
21:16O Lord, show your mercy upon us
21:18and grant us your salvation.
21:24Protect and guide those in authority over us
21:29and mercifully hear us when we call upon you.
21:35Endue your ministers with righteousness
21:38and make your chosen people joyful.
21:44O Lord, save your people
21:47and bless your inheritance.
21:52Give peace in our time, O Lord,
21:55because there is none other who fights for us
21:58but only you, O God.
22:02O God, make clean our hearts within us
22:07and take not your Holy Spirit from us.
22:18Let us pray.
22:21Keep, we beseech you, O Lord,
22:24your church with your perpetual mercy,
22:28because the frailty of man without you
22:30cannot but fail.
22:32Keep us ever by your help from all things hurtful
22:36and lead us to all things profitable to our salvation.
22:41through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
22:44Amen.
22:54O God, from whom all holy desires,
22:58all good counsels and all just works proceed,
23:01give to your servants that peace which the world cannot give,
23:07that our hearts may be set to obey your commandments,
23:11and also that, by you,
23:14we, being defended from the fear of our enemies,
23:18may pass our time in rest and quietness.
23:21through the merits of Jesus Christ, our Saviour.
23:25Amen.
23:31Lighten our darkness, we beseech you, O Lord,
23:34and by your great mercy defend us all
23:37from perils and dangers of this night.
23:41For the love of your only Son, our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
23:45Amen.
23:49Almighty God,
23:51who has given us grace at this time with one accord
23:54to make our common supplications to you
23:57and promises that when two or three are gathered together in your name,
24:02you will grant their requests.
24:06Fulfill now, O Lord,
24:08the desires and petitions of your servants
24:11as may be most beneficial for them,
24:15granting us in this world
24:17knowledge of your truth
24:19and in the world to come
24:21life everlasting.
24:24Amen.
24:27With the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ
24:29and the love of God
24:30and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit
24:33be with us all
24:35evermore.
24:36Amen.
