Léctio Epístolæ secundæ beáti Petri apóstoli (3,12-15a.17-18)
Carissimi: Exspectántes et properántes advéntum diéi Dei, propter quam cæli ardéntes solvéntur, et eleménta ignis ardóre tabéscent! Novos vero cælos et terram novam secúndum promíssum ipsíus exspectámus, in quibus iustítia hábitat. Propter quod, caríssimi, hæc exspectántes satágite immaculáti et invioláti ei inveníri in pace; et Dómini nostri longanimitátem. Vos ígitur, dilécti, præsciéntes custodíte, ne iniquórum erróre simul abdúcti excidátis a própria firmitáte; créscite vero in grátia et in cognitióne Dómini nostri et Salvatóris Iésu Christi. Ipsi glória et nunc et in diem æternitátis. Amen.

In illo tempore: Mittunt ad Iesum quosdam ex pharisǽis et herodiánis, ut eum cáperent in verbo. Qui veniéntes dicunt ei: “Magíster, scimus quia verax es et non curas quemquam; nec enim vides in fáciem hóminum, sed in veritáte viam Dei doces. Licet dare tribútum Cǽsari an non? Dábimus an non dábimus?”Qui sciens versútiam eórum ait illis: “Quid me tentátis? Afférte mihi denárium, ut vídeam.”At illi attulérunt. Et ait illis: “Cuíus est imágo hæc et inscríptio?” Illi autem dixérunt ei: “Cæsáris.” Iésus autem dixit illis: “Quæ sunt Cǽsaris, réddite Cǽsari et, quæ sunt Dei, Deo.” Et mirabántur super eo.

After this, standing in the center of the altar, facing the people, extending and then joining his hands, he said:
Oráte, fratres, ut meum ac vestrum sacrifícium acceptábile fiat apud Deum Patrem omnipoténtem.
Pray, brethren, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father.

May the Lord accept the sacrifice at thy hands for the praise and glory of his name, for our good and the good of all his holy Church.

PRÆFATIO I DE SANCTIS
FIRST PREFACE OF THE SAINTS
De gloria Sanctorum
On the Glory of the Saints
Vere dignum et iustum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine, sancte Pater, omnípotens ætérne Deus:
Verily, it is worthy and just, equitable and salutary, for us, evermore and everywhere to give thee thanks: Eternal and Almighty God :
Qui in Sanctórum concílio celebráris, et eórum coronándo mérita tua dona corónas. Qui nobis eórum conversatióne largíris exémplum, et communióne consórtium, et intercessióne subsídium; ut, tantis téstibus confirmáti, ad propósitum certámen currámus invícti et immarcescíbilem cum eis corónam glóriæ consequámur, per Christum Dóminum nostrum.
for thee are glorified in the assembly of the saints, and by crowning their merits, Thou crown Thy own gifts. In their lives, Thou provide us with a model; in communion with them, a family; and in their intercession, support; so that, sustained by so many witnesses, we may run the race set before us unto the end and receive with them the imperishable crown of glory, through Christ our Lord.
Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cumque multíplici congregatióne Sanctórum, hymnum laudis tibi cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:
That is wherefore, together with the angels and archangels, as well as the multitude of saints, we sing a hymn of praise unto thee, repeating without ceasing:
