LECTIO

Henoch pleased God, and was translated into paradise, that he may give repentance to the nations.
Noe was found perfect, just, and in the time of wrath he was made a reconciliation.
Therefore was there a remnant left to the earth, when the flood came.
The covenants of the world were made with him, that all flesh should no more be destroyed with the flood.
Abraham was the great father of a multitude of nations, and there was not found the like to him in glory, who kept the law of the most High, and was in covenant with him.
In his flesh he established the covenant, and in temptation he was found faithful.
Therefore by an oath he gave him glory in his posterity, that he should increase as the dust of the earth,
And that he would exalt his seed as the stars, and they should inherit from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
He glorified him in the sight of kings, and gave him commandments in the sight of his people, and shewed him his glory.
He sanctified him in his faith, and meekness, and chose him out of all flesh.
For he heard him, and his voice, and brought him into a cloud.
And he gave him commandments before his face, and a law of life and instruction, that he might teach Jacob his covenant, and Israel his judgments.
He exalted Aaron his brother, and like to himself of the tribe of Levi:
He made an everlasting covenant with him, and gave him the priesthood of the nation, and made him blessed in glory,
And he girded him about with a glorious girdle, and clothed him with a robe of glory, and crowned him with majestic attire.
He put upon him a garment to the feet, and breeches, and an ephod, and he compassed him with many little bells of gold all round about,
That as he went there might be a sound, and a noise made that might be heard in the temple, for a memorial to the children of his people.
He gave him a holy robe of gold, and blue, and purple, a woven work of a wise man, endued with judgment and truth:
Of twisted scarlet the work of an artist, with precious stones cut and set in gold, and graven by the work of a lapidary for a memorial, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
And a crown of gold upon his mitre wherein was engraved Holiness, an ornament of honour: a work of power, and delightful to the eyes for its beauty.
Before him there were none so beautiful, even from the beginning.

Brethren, be strengthened in the Lord and in the might of his power.  
Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil.
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.
Therefore, take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day and to stand in all things perfect.
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth and having on the breastplate of justice:
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.
In all things taking the shield of faith, wherewith you may be able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the most wicked one.
And take unto you the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit (which is the word of God).

Brethren, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall rise again incorruptible. And we shall be changed.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption: and this mortal must put on immortality.
And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.
O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?
Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, having the sign of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
Saying: Hurt not the earth nor the sea nor the trees, till we sign the servants of our God in their foreheads.
And I heard the number of them that were signed. An hundred forty-four thousand were signed, of every tribe of the children of Israel.
Of the tribe of Juda, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Ruben, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand signed:
Of the tribe of Aser, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Nephthali, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Manasses, twelve thousand signed:
Of the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand signed:
Of the tribe of Zabulon, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand signed.
After this, I saw a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and in sight of the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands.
And they cried with a loud voice, saying: Salvation to our God, who sitteth upon the throne and to the Lamb.
And all the angels stood round about the throne and the ancients and the four living creatures. And they fell down before the throne upon their faces and adored God,
Saying: Amen. Benediction and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving, honour and power and strength, to our God, for ever and ever. Amen.

We give thanks to God the Father, who hath made us worthy to be partakers of the lot of the saints in light:
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness and hath translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love,
In whom we have redemption through his blood, the remission of sins:
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
For in him were all things created in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominations, or principalities, or powers. All things were created by him and in him.
And he is before all: and by him all things consist.
And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he may hold the primacy:
Because in him, it hath well pleased the Father that all fulness should dwell:
And through him to reconcile all things unto himself, making peace through the blood of his cross, both as to the things that are on earth and the things that are in heaven.

And have stood in all the earth: and in every people,
And in every nation I have had the chief rule:
And by my power I have trodden under my feet the hearts of all the high and low: and in all these I sought rest, and I shall abide in the inheritance of the Lord.
Then the creator of all things commanded, and said to me: and he that made me, rested in my tabernacle,

Brethren, to every one of us is given grace, according to the measure of the giving of Christ.  
Wherefore he saith: Ascending on high, he led captivity captive: he gave gifts to men.
Now that he ascended, what is it, but because he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
He that descended is the same also that ascended above all the heavens: that he might fill all things.
And he gave some apostles, and some prophets, and other some evangelists, and other some pastors and doctors:
For the perfecting of the saints, for the word of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Until we all meet into the unity of faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the age of the fulness of Christ:

Brethren, see how you walk circumspectly: not as unwise,  
But as wise: redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Wherefore, become not unwise: but understanding what is the will of God.
And be not drunk with wine, wherein is luxury: but be ye filled with the Holy Spirit,
Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord:
Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father:
Being subject one to another, in the fear of Christ.
