Levit 23:26-32
In diébus illis: Locútus est Dóminus ad Móysen, dicens: Décimo die mensis huius séptimi, dies expiatiónum erit celebérrimus, et vocábitur sanctus: affligetísque ánimas vestras in eo, et offerétis holocáustum Dómino. Omne opus servíle non faciétis in témpore diéi huius: quia dies propitiatiónis est, ut propitiétur vobis Dóminus, Deus vester. Omnis ánima, quæ afflicta non fúerit die hac, períbit de pópulis suis: et quæ óperis quídpiam fécerit, delébo eam de pópulo suo. Nihil ergo óperis faciétis in eo: legítimum sempitérnum erit vobis in cunctis generatiónibus et habitatiónibus vestris. Sábbatum requietiónis est, et affligétis ánimas vestras die nono mensis: a véspera usque ad vésperam celebrábitis sábbata vestra: dicit Dóminus omnípotens.
℟. Deo grátias.

Lesson
Lesson from the book of Leviticus
Lev 23:26-32
In those days, the Lord said to Moses, The tenth of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement; it shall be most solemn, and shall be called holy; and you shall mortify yourselves on that day and offer an oblation to the Lord. On this day you shall not do any work, because it is the Day of Atonement, when atonement is made for you before the Lord, your God. Anyone who does not mortify himself on this day shall be cut off from his people; and if anyone does any work on this day, I will remove him from the midst of his people. This is a perpetual statute for you and your descendants wherever you dwell: you shall do no work, but shall keep a Sabbath of complete rest and mortify yourselves. Beginning on the evening of the ninth of the month, you shall keep this Sabbath of yours from evening to evening, says the Lord almighty.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Hebrǽos
Hebr 9:2-12
Fratres: Tabernáculum factum est primum, in quo erant candelábra, et mensa, et proposítio panum, quæ dícitur Sancta. Post velaméntum autem secúndum, tabernáculum, quod dícitur Sancta sanctórum: áureum habens thuríbulum, et arcam testaménti circumtéctam ex omni parte auro, in qua urna áurea habens manna, et virga Aaron, quæ frondúerat, et tábulæ testaménti, supérque eam erant Chérubim glóriæ obumbrántia propitiatórium: de quibus non est modo dicéndum per síngula. His vero ita compósitis; in prióri quidem tabernáculo semper introíbant sacerdótes, sacrificiórum offícia consummántes: in secúndo autem semel in anno solus póntifex, non sine sánguine, quem offert pro sua et pópuli ignorántia: hoc significánte Spíritu Sancto, nondum propalátam esse sanctórum viam, adhuc prióre tabernaculo habénte statum. Quæ parábola est témporis instántis: iuxta quam múnera et hóstiæ offerúntur, quæ non possunt iuxta consciéntiam perféctum fácere serviéntem, solummodo in cibis, et in pótibus, et váriis baptismátibus, et iustítiis carnis usque ad tempus correctiónis impósitis. Christus autem assístens póntifex futurórum bonórum, per ámplius et perféctius tabernáculum non manufáctum, id est, non huius creatiónis; neque per sánguinem hircórum aut vitulórum, sed per próprium sánguinem introívit semel in Sancta, ætérna redemptióne invénta.
℟. Deo grátias.
Lesson
Heb 9:2-12
Brethren: There was set up a tabernacle in the outer part of which were the lampstand and the table and the showbread, and this is called the Holy Place; but beyond the second veil was the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies, having a golden censer and the ark of the covenant, overlaid on every side with gold. In the ark was a golden pot containing the manna and the rod of Aaron which had budded, and the tablets of the covenant; and above it were the Cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat. But of all these we cannot now speak in detail. Such then being the arrangements, the priests always used to enter into the first tabernacle to perform the sacred rites; but into the second tabernacle the high priest alone entered once a year, not without blood, which he offered for his own and the people’s sins of ignorance. The Holy Spirit signified by this that the way into the Holies was not yet thrown open while the first tabernacle was still standing. This first tabernacle is a figure of the present time, inasmuch as gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect the worshipper in conscience, since they refer only to food and drink and various ablutions and bodily regulations imposed until a time of reformation. But when Christ appeared once for all through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made by hands - that is, not of this creation, - nor again by virtue of blood of goats and calves, but by virtue of His own Blood, into the Holies, having obtained eternal redemption.
℟. Thanks be to God.
Ps 116:1-2
Laudáte Dóminum, omnes gentes: et collaudáte eum, omnes pópuli.
℣. Quóniam confirmáta est super nos misericórdia eius: et véritas Dómini manet in ætérnum.
Ps 116:1-2
Praise the Lord, all you nations; glorify Him, all you peoples!
℣. For steadfast is His kindness toward us, and the fidelity of the Lord endures forever.

Luc 13:6-17
In illo témpore: Dicébat Iesus turbis hanc similitúdinem: Arbórem fici habébat quidam plantátam in vínea sua, et venit quærens fructum in illa, et non invénit. Dixit autem ad cultórem víneæ: Ecce, anni tres sunt, ex quo vénio quærens fructum in ficúlnea hac, et non invénio: succíde ergo illam: ut quid étiam terram óccupat? At ille respóndens, dicit illi: Dómine, dimítte illam et hoc anno, usque dum fódiam circa illam et mittam stércora: et si quidem fécerit fructum: sin autem, in futúrum succídes eam. Erat autem docens in synagóga eórum sábbatis. Et ecce múlier, quæ habébat spíritum infirmitátis annis decem et octo: et erat inclináta, nec omníno póterat sursum respícere. Quam cum vidéret Iesus, vocávit eam ad se, et ait illi: Múlier, dimíssa es ab infirmitáte tua. Et impósuit illi manus, et conféstim erécta est, et glorificábat Deum. Respóndens autem archisynagógus, indígnans quia sábbato curásset Iesus, dicébat turbæ: Sex dies sunt, in quibus opórtet operári: in his ergo veníte, et curámini, et non in die sábbati. Respóndens autem ad illum Dóminus, dixit: Hypócritæ, unusquísque vestrum sábbato non solvit bovem suum aut ásinum a præsépio, et ducit adaquáre? Hanc autem fíliam Abrahæ, quam alligávit sátanas, ecce decem et octo annis, non opórtuit solvi a vínculo isto die sábbati? Et cum hæc díceret, erubescébant omnes adversárii eius: et omnis pópulus gaudébat in univérsis, quæ glorióse fiébant ab eo.
℟. Laus tibi, Christe.

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to
℟. Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
Luke 13:6-17
At that time, Jesus spoke to the multitudes this parable: A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit thereon, and found none. And he said to the vine-dresser, ‘Behold, for three years now I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. Cut it down, therefore; why does it still encumber the ground?’ But he answered him and said, ‘Sir, let it alone this year too, till I dig around it and manure it. Perhaps it may bear fruit; but if not, then afterwards you shall cut it down.’ Now He was teaching in one of their synagogues on the Sabbath. And behold, there was a woman who for eighteen years had had a sickness caused by a spirit; and she was bent over and utterly unable to look upwards. When Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, Woman, you are delivered from your infirmity. And He laid His hands upon her, and instantly she was made straight, and glorified God. But the ruler of the synagogue, indignant that Jesus had cured on the Sabbath, addressed the crowd, saying, There are six days in which one ought to work; on these therefore come and be cured, and not on the Sabbath. But the Lord answered him and said, Hypocrites! does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or ass from the manger, and lead it forth to water? And this woman, daughter of Abraham as she is, whom Satan has bound, lo, for eighteen years, ought not she to be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath? And as He said these things, all His adversaries were put to shame; and the entire crowd rejoiced at all the glorious things that were done by Him.
℟. Praise be to Thee, O Christ.
S. By the words of the Gospel may our sins be blotted out.

It is truly meet and just, and profitable unto salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, O Holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God, through Christ, our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominions adore it, the Powers are in awe. Which the heavens and the hosts of heaven together with the blessed Seraphim joyfully do magnify. And do Thou command that it be permitted us to join with them in confessing Thee, while we say with lowly praise:
Levit 23:41; 23:43
Mense séptimo festa celebrábitis, cum in tabernáculis habitáre fécerim fílios Israël, cum edúcerem eos de terra Ægýpti, ego Dóminus, Deus vester.
