Léctio libri Isaíæ prophétæ (55,1-3)
Hæc dicit Dominus: Omnes sitiéntes, veníte ad aquas; et, qui non habétis argéntum, properáte, émite et comédite, veníte, émite absque argénto et absque ulla commutatióne vinum et lac. Quare appénditis argéntum non in pánibus et labórem vestrum non in saturitáte? Audíte, audiéntes me, et comédite bonum, ut delectétur in crassitúdine ánima vestra. Inclináte aurem vestram et veníte ad me; audíte, ut vivat ánima vestra, et fériam vobíscum pactum sempitérnum, misericórdias David fidéles.
This is what the Lord says: All ye that thirst come to the waters: and you that have no silver, make haste, buy, & eat: come, buy without silver, and without any exchange wine and milk. Why bestow you silver not for bread, & your labour not for satiety? Hearing hear ye me, and eat that which is good, and your soul shall be delighted in fatness. Incline your ear, & come to me: hear, and your soul shall live, and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the faithful mercies of David.
