Dominica X post Pentecosten

When I cried to the Lord, He heard my voice, from them that draw near to me: and He humbled them, who is before all ages, and remains forever: cast thy care upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee.

O God, who dost manifest Thine almighty power most chiefly in showing mercy and pity: multiply upon us Thy mercy, that we, running to Thy promises, may be made partakers of Thy heavenly treasures. Through our Lord.

Brethren: You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led. Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man, speaking by the Spirit of God, saith Anathema to Jesus. And no man can say The Lord Jesus, but by the Holy Ghost. Now there are diversities of graces, but the same Spirit. And there are diversities of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all.

Keep me, O Lord, as the apple of Thy eye: protect me under the shadow of Thy wings. Let my judgment come forth from Thy countenance: let Thy eyes behold the things that are equitable.

At that time: Jesus spoke to some who trusted in themselves as just, and despised others, this parable: Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee standing, prayed thus with himself: O God, I give Thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, as also is this publican. I fast twice in a week: I give tithes of all that I possess.

We beseech Thee, O Lord our God, that Thou wouldst not withdraw Thy gracious assistance from those whom Thou dost not cease to restore with divine sacraments. Through our Lord.
