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.
03:14Amen.
03:18Grant, we beseech you, merciful Lord, to your faithful people, pardon and peace,
03:24that they may be cleansed from all their sins, and serve you with a quiet mind, through Jesus Christ our
03:32Lord.
03:33Amen.
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.
04:10Amen.
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,
04:43world without end.
04:45Amen.
04:48Praise the Lord.
04:50The Lord's name be praised.
04:56Psalm 73
05:00Certainly God is good to Israel, and to those whose motives are pure.
05:06But as for me, my feet almost slipped, my feet almost slid out from under me.
05:12For I envied those who are proud, as I observe the prosperity of the wicked.
05:19For they suffer no pain, their bodies are strong and well fed.
05:24They are immune to the common trouble to men, they do not suffer as other men do.
05:31Arrogance is their necklace, and violence covers them like clothing.
05:36Their prosperity causes them to do wrong, and their thoughts are sinful.
05:43They mock and say evil things.
05:46They proudly threaten violence.
05:49They speak as if they rule in heaven, and lay claim to the earth.
05:55Therefore they have more than enough food to eat, and even suck up the water of the sea.
06:00They say, how does God know what we do?
06:05Is the Most High aware of what goes on?
06:10Take a good look.
06:12This is what the wicked are like.
06:15Those who always have it so easy, and get richer and richer.
06:20I concluded, surely in vain, I have kept my motives pure, and maintained a pure lifestyle.
06:29I suffer all day long, and I am punished every morning.
06:35If I had publicized these thoughts, I would have betrayed your people.
06:40And when I tried to make sense of this, it was troubling to me.
06:46Then I entered the precincts of God's temple, and I understood the destiny of the wicked.
06:55Surely you put them in slippery places, and you bring them down to ruin.
07:01How desolate they become in a mere moment.
07:05Terrifying judgments make their demise complete.
07:10They are like a dream after one wakes up.
07:13O Lord, when you awake, you will despise them.
07:18Yes, my spirit was bitter, and my insides felt a sharp pain.
07:24I was ignorant, and lacked insight.
07:27I was as senseless as an animal before you.
07:32But I am continually with you.
07:34You hold my right hand.
07:36You guide me by your wise advice, and then you will lead me to a position of honor.
07:43Whom do I have in heaven but you?
07:45I desire no one but you on earth.
07:50My flesh and my heart may grow weak, but God always protects my heart and gives me stability.
07:58Yes, look, those far from you die.
08:01You destroy everyone who is unfaithful to you.
08:06But as for me, God's presence is all I need.
08:10I have made the Sovereign Lord my shelter, as I declare all the things you have done.
08:17Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning,
08:23is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
08:27Amen.
08:31Psalm 74
08:34Why, O God, have you permanently rejected us?
08:38Why does your anger burn against the sheep of your pasture?
08:46Remember your people, whom you acquired in ancient times,
08:50whom you rescued, so that they could be your very own nation, as well as Mount Zion, where you dwell.
08:58Hurry, to the permanent ruins, and to all the damage the enemy has done to the temple.
09:05Your enemies roar in the middle of your sanctuary.
09:08They set up their battle flags.
09:11They invade like lumberjacks, swinging their axes in a thick forest.
09:17And now they are tearing down all its engravings with axes and crowbars.
09:23They set your sanctuary on fire.
09:26They desecrate your dwelling place by knocking it to the ground.
09:32They say to themselves, we will oppress all of them.
09:37They burn down all the places where people worship God in the land.
09:43We do not see any signs of God's presence.
09:46There are no longer any prophets, and we have no one to tell us how long this will last.
09:53How long, O God, will the adversary hurl insults?
09:57Will the enemy blaspheme your name forever?
10:01Why do you remain inactive?
10:05Intervene and destroy him.
10:08But God has been my king from ancient times, performing acts of deliverance on the earth.
10:16You destroyed the sea by your strength.
10:19You shattered the heads of the sea monster in the water.
10:24You crushed the heads of the Leviathan.
10:26You fed him to the people who live along the coast.
10:30You broke open the spring and the stream.
10:33You dried up perpetually flowing rivers.
10:37You established the cycle of day and night.
10:41You put the moon and the sun in place.
10:45You set up all the boundaries of the earth.
10:48You created the cycle of summer and winter.
10:52Remember how the enemy hurls insults, O Lord,
10:56and how a foolish nation blasphemes your name.
11:01Do not hand the life of your dove over to a wild animal.
11:06Do not continue to disregard the lives of your oppressed people.
11:12Remember your covenant promises,
11:14for the dark regions of the earth are full of places where violence rules.
11:20Do not let the afflicted be turned back in shame.
11:25Let the oppressed and the poor praise your name.
11:29Rise up, O God, defend your honour.
11:32Remember how fools insult you all day long.
11:36Do not disregard what your enemies say.
11:40Or the unceasing shouts of those who defy you.
11:45Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
11:49As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be.
11:53World without end.
11:55Amen.
12:02The Book of Ecclesiasticus, Chapter 39
12:07Listen to me, you holy children.
12:10Bud forth as a rose growing by a brook of water.
12:15Give you a sweet flavour as frankincense.
12:19Put forth flowers as a lily.
12:21Spread abroad a sweet smell, and sing a song of praise.
12:53You should bless the Lord for all his works.
12:54All be sought out.
12:56At his word, the waters stood in a heap.
13:00Are the receptacles of the waters at the word of his mouth.
13:04At his command is all his good pleasure done.
13:08There is none that shall hinder his salvation.
13:13The works of all flesh are before him.
13:16It is not possible to be hid from his eyes.
13:20He sees from everlasting to everlasting.
13:23There is nothing wonderful above him.
13:27None can say what is this, and why is that.
13:30For all things are created for their uses.
13:34His blessings covered the dry land like a river, and saturated it like a flood.
13:40As he turned the waters into saltiness, so shall the heathen inherit his rob.
13:47His ways are plain to the holy, and so are they stumbling blocks to the wicked.
13:53Good things are created from the beginning for the good, and so are evil things for sinners.
14:01The sheaf of all things necessary for the life of man are water, fire, iron, salt, flour, honey, and milk.
14:10The blood of the grape, oil, and clothing.
14:16All these things are for the good of the godly, so to the sinners they shall be turned to evil.
14:24There are winds that are created for vengeance, and in their fury lay their scourges heavily.
14:31In the time of consummation they pour out their strength, appeasing the wrath of the one who made them.
14:38Hail, fire, famine, and death, these are created for vengeance.
14:44Teeth of wild beasts, scorpions, serpents, and a sword punishing the ungodly to destruction.
14:52They shall rejoice in his commandments, and shall be made ready upon the earth when necessary.
14:58In their seasons they shall not transgress his word.
15:03Therefore from the beginning I was resolved, I thought this and left it in writing.
15:09All the works of the Lord are good, he will supply every need in its season.
15:17None can say this is worse than that, for they shall all be well approved in their season.
15:24Now, with all your heart and myth, sing praises and bless the name of the Lord.
15:32This is the word of the Lord.
15:35Thanks be to God.
15:47Mary said,
15:48My soul exalts the Lord, and my spirit has begun to rejoice in God my Saviour,
15:55because he has looked upon the humble state of his servant.
16:01For from now on all generations will call me blessed,
16:05because he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.
16:12From generation to generation he is merciful to those who fear him.
16:18He has demonstrated power with his arm.
16:22He has scattered those whose pride wells up from the sheer arrogance of their hearts.
16:28He has brought down the mighty from their thrones,
16:31and has lifted up those of lowly position.
16:35He has filled the hungry with good things, and has sent the rich away empty.
16:41He has helped his servant Israel, remembering his mercy,
16:46as he promised to our ancestors, to Abraham, and to his descendants for ever.
16:54Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
16:58as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
17:03world without end.
17:05Amen.
17:12The Gospel according to St. John, Chapter 4
17:16Now when Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that he was winning and baptising more disciples than John,
17:24although Jesus himself was not baptising, but his disciples were,
17:29he left Judea and set out once more for Galilee.
17:34But he had to pass through Samaria.
17:37He came to a Samaritan town called Sikar,
17:41near the plot of land that Jacob had given to his son, Joseph.
17:46Jacob's well was there, and so Jesus, since he was tired from the journey,
17:51sat down beside the well.
17:53It was about midday.
17:57A Samaritan woman came to draw water.
18:00Jesus said to her,
18:02Please, give me some water to drink.
18:05For his disciples had gone off into the town to buy food.
18:11So the Samaritan woman said to him,
18:13How can you, a Jew, ask me, a Samaritan woman, for water to drink?
18:18For Jews use nothing in common with Samaritans.
18:23Jesus answered,
18:24If you had known the gift of God,
18:27and who it is who said to you,
18:29Give me some water to drink,
18:31you would have asked him,
18:33and he would have given you living water.
18:37Sir, the woman said to him,
18:39You have no bucket, and the well is deep.
18:42Where then are you going to get this living water?
18:46Surely you are not greater than our ancestor Jacob, are you?
18:49For he left us this will,
18:52and drank from it himself,
18:54along with all his sons and his livestock.
18:59Jesus replied,
19:00Everyone who drinks some of this water
19:02will be thirsty again.
19:05But whoever drinks some of the water I will give
19:08will never be thirsty again.
19:11The water I will give him
19:12will become in him
19:13a fountain of water
19:15springing up to eternal life.
19:19The woman said to him,
19:21Sir, give me some of this water,
19:24that I will never be thirsty again,
19:26or have to come here to draw water.
19:29He replied to her,
19:31Go, call your husband,
19:33and come back here.
19:35The woman replied,
19:37I have no husband.
19:39Jesus said to her,
19:41You are correct when you said,
19:43I have no husband.
19:45For you have had five husbands,
19:47and the man you are living with now
19:49is not your husband.
19:51This you said truthfully.
19:54The woman said to him,
19:57Sir, I see that you are a prophet.
20:00Our fathers worshipped on this mountain,
20:02and you people say that the place
20:04where people must worship
20:05is in Jerusalem.
20:08Jesus said to her,
20:10Believe me, woman,
20:11there is a time coming
20:12when you will worship the Father
20:14neither on this mountain
20:15nor in Jerusalem.
20:17For you worship
20:19what you do not know.
20:20We worship what we do know,
20:23because salvation
20:24is from the Jews.
20:26But the time is coming,
20:28it is already here,
20:29when the true worshippers
20:30will worship the Father
20:31in spirit and truth.
20:33For the Father seeks
20:35such people
20:36to worship him.
20:38God is spirit,
20:40and the people
20:41who worship him
20:42must worship
20:43in spirit and truth.
20:48The woman said to him,
20:51I know that the Messiah
20:53is coming,
20:54the one called Christ.
20:56Whenever he comes,
20:58he will tell us everything.
21:00Jesus said to her,
21:02I,
21:03the one who speaks with you,
21:05am he.
21:08Now at that moment
21:10his disciples returned,
21:12and they were shocked
21:13because he was speaking
21:14with this woman.
21:16However,
21:17no one said,
21:18What do you want
21:18or why are you speaking
21:20with her?
21:21Then the woman
21:22left her water jar,
21:24went off into the town
21:25and said to the people,
21:26Come,
21:27see a man
21:28who told me
21:28everything I ever did.
21:31Surely,
21:32he cannot be
21:33the Messiah,
21:34can he?
21:35And so they left the town
21:37and came to him.
21:40This is the word of the Lord.
21:43Thanks be to God.
21:54Now according to your word,
21:56Sovereign Lord,
21:57permit your servant
21:58to depart in peace.
22:01For my eyes
22:02have seen your salvation
22:03that you have prepared
22:05in the presence
22:06of all peoples,
22:08a light for revelation
22:10to the Gentiles
22:11and for glory
22:13to your people Israel.
22:16Glory be to the Father
22:18and to the Son
22:19and to the Holy Spirit,
22:20as it was in the beginning,
22:22is now and ever shall be,
22:25world without end.
22:26Amen.
22:32I believe in God
22:34the Father Almighty,
22:35maker of heaven and earth,
22:37and in Jesus Christ,
22:39his only Son,
22:40our Lord,
22:41who was conceived
22:43by the Holy Spirit,
22:44born of the Virgin Mary,
22:46suffered unto Pontius Pilate,
22:50was crucified,
22:51dead,
22:52and buried.
22:53He descended into hell.
22:55On the third day
22:56he rose again
22:57from the dead.
22:59He ascended into heaven
23:01and is sitting
23:02at the right hand
23:03of God the Father Almighty.
23:06From there he shall come
23:07to judge the living
23:08and the dead.
23:11I believe in the Holy Spirit,
23:13the Holy Catholic Church,
23:15the communion of saints,
23:16the forgiveness of sins,
23:19the resurrection of the body,
23:21and the life everlasting.
23:24Amen.
23:29The Lord be with you
23:31and with your spirit.
23:36Let us pray.
23:40Lord, have mercy upon us.
23:43Christ, have mercy upon us.
23:47Lord, have mercy upon us.
23:54Our Father,
23:55who is in heaven,
23:57holy is your name.
24:00May your kingdom come.
24:02May your will be done
24:04on earth as it is in heaven.
24:07Give us this day
24:08our daily bread.
24:10Forgive us our trespasses
24:12as we forgive those
24:13who trespass against us.
24:16Lead us not into temptation,
24:19but deliver us from evil.
24:21For yours is the kingdom,
24:24the power and the glory,
24:26for ever and ever.
24:29Amen.
24:34O Lord, show your mercy upon us
24:37and grant us your salvation.
24:43Protect and guide those
24:45in authority over us
24:47and mercifully hear us
24:50when we call upon you.
24:53Endue your ministers
24:55with righteousness
24:57and make your chosen people
24:59joyful.
25:02O Lord, save your people
25:05and bless your inheritance.
25:10Give peace in our time,
25:12O Lord,
25:14because there is none other
25:15who fights for us
25:17but only you, O God.
25:20O God, make clean
25:22our hearts within us
25:25and take not
25:26your Holy Spirit
25:27from us.
25:34Let us pray.
25:37O Lord, we beseech you,
25:40absolve your people
25:41from their offenses
25:42that, through your
25:44bountiful goodness,
25:46we may all be delivered
25:48from the bands
25:49of those sins
25:50which, by our frailty,
25:52we have committed.
25:55Grab this, O Heavenly Father,
25:57for Jesus Christ's sake,
25:59our beloved Lord
26:00and Saviour.
26:02Amen.
26:09O God,
26:10from whom all
26:12holy desires,
26:13all good counsels
26:14and all just works
26:16proceed,
26:17give to your servants
26:19that peace
26:19which the world
26:21cannot give,
26:22that our hearts
26:23may be set to
26:24obey your commandments
26:26and also that,
26:28by you,
26:29we, being defended
26:31from the fear
26:31of our enemies,
26:33may pass our time
26:34in rest and quietness.
26:37Through the merits
26:38of Jesus Christ,
26:39our Saviour.
26:41Amen.
26:46Lighten our darkness,
26:47we beseech you,
26:48O Lord,
26:49and by your great mercy
26:51defend us all
26:52from perils
26:53and dangers
26:54of this night.
26:56For the love
26:57of your only Son,
26:58our Saviour,
26:59Jesus Christ.
27:01Amen.
27:04Almighty God,
27:06who has given us
27:07grace at this time
27:08with one accord
27:09to make our common
27:11supplications
27:12to you
27:12and promises
27:14that when two or three
27:15are gathered together
27:16in your name,
27:18you will grant
27:19their requests.
27:21Fulfill now,
27:22O Lord,
27:23the desires
27:24and petitions
27:25of your servants
27:26as may be
27:28most beneficial
27:29for them.
27:31Granting us
27:31in this world
27:32knowledge
27:33of your truth
27:34and in the world
27:35to come
27:36life everlasting.
27:39Amen.
27:42With the grace
27:43of our Lord Jesus Christ
27:44and the love
27:45of God
27:45and the fellowship
27:47of the Holy Spirit
27:48be with us all
27:50evermore.
27:51Amen.
