Antiphon
As the serpent was elevated in the wilderness,
 so the Son of Man must be raised up.

Sicut exaltátus est serpens in erémo, ita exaltári opórtet Fílium hóminis.

PSALM 110

The Lord has said to my lord:
  “Sit at my right hand

PSALM 109:1-5,7
Dixit Dóminus Dómino meo:*
  «Sede a dextris meis,





Antiphon
The Lord of hosts guards and liberates; he directs and he rescues

Dóminus exercítuum, prótegens et líberans, tránsiens et salvans.

PSALM 114

When Israel came out of Egypt,
  Jacob’s people from a land of strangers,

PSALM 113A:1-8
In éxitu Israel de Ægýpto,*
  domus Iacob de pópulo bárbaro,





Antiphon
He was lacerated for our lapses, he was crushed for our weaknesses.
 Through his gashes we are made whole

Ipse vulnerátus est propter iniquitátes nostras, attrítus est propter scélera nostra 
et livóre eius sanáti sumus.

1 PETER 2

Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, to follow in his path

Christus passus est pro vobis†  vobis relínquens exémplum,*  ut sequámini vestígia eius:


Extended Reading Acts 13:15-33 

15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying: Ye men, brethren, if you have any word of exhortation to make to the people, speak.

 16 Then Paul rising up, and with his hand bespeaking silence, said: Ye men of Israel, and you that fear God, give ear.

 17 The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they were sojourners in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought them out from thence,

 18 And for the space of forty years endured their manners in the desert.

 19 And destroying seven nations in the land of Chanaan, divided their land among them, by lot,

 20 As it were, after four hundred and fifty years: and after these things, he gave unto them judges, until Samuel the prophet.

 21 And after that they desired a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years.

 22 And when he had removed him, he raised them up David to be king: to whom giving testimony, he said: I have found David, the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who shall do all my wills.

 23 Of this man's seed God according to his promise, hath raised up to Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

 24 John first preaching, before his coming, the baptism of penance to all the people of Israel.

 25 And when John was fulfilling his course, he said: I am not he, whom you think me to be: but behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.

 26 Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear God, to you the word of this salvation is sent.

 27 For they that inhabited Jerusalem, and the rulers thereof, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets, which are read every sabbath, judging him have fulfilled them.

 28 And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.

 29 And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, taking him down from the tree, they laid him in a sepulchre.

 30 But God raised him up from the dead the third day:

 31 Who was seen for many days, by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who to this present are his witnesses to the people.

 32 And we declare unto you, that the promise which was made to our fathers,

 33 This same God hath fulfilled to our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second psalm also is written: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

Hear us, O God, and have mercy, for we have sinned against you.
Listen, O Christ, to our humble prayers.

If I am raised up from the earth, I shall attract all things to myself..
