The Introit Psalm
119 XV. Iniquos odio
habui.
I HATE them that imagine evil
things; * but thy law do I love.
114 Thou art my defence and shield; * and my trust is in thy
word.
115 Away from me, ye wicked; * I will keep the commandments
of my God.
116 O stablish me according to thy word, that I may live; *
and let me not be disappointed of my hope.
117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe; * yea, my delight
shall be ever in thy statutes.
118 Thou hast trodden down all them that depart from thy
statutes; * for they imagine but deceit.
119 Thou puttest away all the ungodly of the earth like
dross; * therefore I love thy testimonies.
120 My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; * and I am afraid
of thy judgments.
The Collect.
KEEP, we beseech thee, O Lord, thy Church with thy perpetual mercy;
and, because the frailty of man without thee cannot but fall, keep us ever by
thy help from all things hurtful, and lead us to all things profitable to our
salvation; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Epistle. Gal. vi. 11.
YE see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own
hand. As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to
be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of
Christ. For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but
desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. But God
forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom
the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. For in Christ Jesus
neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new
creature. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and
mercy, and upon the Israel of God. From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I
bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus. Brethren, the grace of our Lord
Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
The Gradual Ps
92:1-3
IT is a
good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, / and to sing praises unto thy Name, O
thou Most High;
2 To tell of thy loving-kindness in the morning, / and of thy faithfulness in
the night-season;
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the lute, / with a melody upon
the harp.
The Alleluia Ps 92:4
Alleluia! Alleluia! For thou, Lord, hast made me glad throught thy
works; * and I will rejoice in giving Praise for the operations of they hands. Alleluia!
The Gospel. St. Matt. vi. 24.
NO man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and
love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye
cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your
life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye
shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold
the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into
barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take
ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they
toil not, neither do they spin: and yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in
all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe
the grass of the field, which to day is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven,
shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? There fore take no
thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal
shall we be clothed? (for after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for
your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye
first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be
added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall
take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof.

The Epistle 1 Tim. i. 8-14
Dearly beloved, we know that the law is good, if a man
use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man,
but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for
unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for
manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for
menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing
that is contrary to sound doctrine; According to the glorious gospel of the
blessed God, which was committed to my trust. And I thank Christ Jesus our
Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the
ministry; Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I
obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. And the grace of our
Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus our
Lord.
The Gospel Luke xx. 1-8
At that time it came to pass, that on one of those
days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief
priests and the scribes came upon him with the elders, And spake unto him,
saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that
gave thee this authority? And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask
you one thing; and answer me: The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of
men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven;
he will say, Why then believed ye him not? But and if we say, Of men; all the
people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet. And they
answered, that they could not tell whence it was. And Jesus said unto them,
Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
