EPISTLE
II Cor. 1:3-7
Fratres: Benedictus Deus et Pater Domini nostri Jesu Christi, Pater misericordiarum, et Deus Totius consolationis, qui consolatur nos in omni tribulatione nostra: ut possimus et issi consolarieos, qui in omni pressura sunt, per exhortationem, qua exhortamur et ipsi a Deo Quoniam sicut adbundant passiones Christum abundat consolatio nostra. Sive autem tirbulamur pro vestra exhortatione salute, sive consolamur vetra consolatione, siveexhortamur pro vestra echortatione et salute, quae operatur tolerantiam earumdem passionum quas et nos patimur: ut spes nostra firma sit pro vobis: scientes quod sicut socii passionum estis sic eritis et consolationis in Christo Jesu Domino nostro.
Brethren, Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort. Who comforteth us in all our tribulation; that we also may be able to comfort them who are in all distress, by the exhortation wherewith we also are exhorted by God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound. Now whether we be in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation: or whether we be exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which worketh the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer. That our hope for you may be steadfast: knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation, in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Gloria et honore coronasti eum, Et constituisti eum super opera manuumtuarum Domine.

GOSPEL
Mt. 16:24-27
In illo tempore: Dixit Jesus discipulis suis: Si quis vult post me venire, abneget semetipsum, et tollat crucem suam, et sequatur me. Qui enim voluerit animam suam salvam facere, perdet eam qui autem perdiderit animam suam propter me inveniet eam. Quid enim prodest homini, si mundum universum lucretur, animae vero suae detrimentum patiatur? Aut quam dabit homo communtationem pro anima sua? Filius enim hominis venturus est in gloria Patris sui cum angelis suis: et tunc reddet unicuique secundum opera ejus.
At that time, Jesus said to his disciples: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For he that will save his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall find it. For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works.
