Lectio brevis (1Thess 2, 9-12)
Mémores estis, fratres, labóris nostri et fatigatiónis; nocte et die operántes, ne quem vestrum gravarémus, prædicávimus in vobis evangélium Dei. Vos testes estis et Deus, quam sancte et iuste et sine queréla vobis, qui credidístis, fúimus; sicut scitis quáliter unumquémque vestrum, tamquam pater fílios suos, deprecántes vos et consolántes testificáti sumus, ut ambularétis digne Deo, qui vocat vos in suum regnum et glóriam.
For you remember, brethren, our labour and toil: working night and day, lest we should be chargeable to any of you, we preached among you the gospel of God. You are witnesses, and God also, how holily, and justly, and without blame, we have been to you that have believed: As you know in what manner, entreating and comforting you, (as a father doth his children,) We testified to every one of you, that you would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
Verbum Dómini. r. Deo grátias.
