Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam (7,11-17)
In illo tempore: Abiit Iesus in civitátem, quæ vocátur Naim, et ibant cum illo discípuli eíus et turba copiósa. Cum autem appropinquáret portæ civitátis, et ecce defúnctus efferebátur fílius únicus matri suæ; et hæc vídua erat, et turba civitátis multa cum illa. Quam cum vidísset Dóminus, misericórdia motus super ea dixit illi: “Noli flere!” Et accéssit et tétigit lóculum; hi autem, qui portábant, stetérunt. Et ait: “Aduléscens, tibi dico: Surge!” Et resédit, qui erat mórtuus, et cœpit loqui; et dedit illum matri suæ. Accépit autem omnes timor, et magnificábant Deum dicéntes: “Prophéta magnus surréxit in nobis” et: “Deus visitávit plebem suam.” Et éxiit hic sermo in univérsam Iudǽam de eo et omnem circa regiónem.
At that time, Jesus came to pass afterwards, that he went into a city that is called Naim; and there went with him his disciples, and a great multitude. And when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow: and a great multitude of the city was with her. Whom when the Lord had seen, being moved with mercy towards her, he said to her: Weep not. And he came near and touched the bier. And they that carried it, stood still. And he said: Young man, I say to thee, arise. And he that was dead, sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother. And there came a fear on them all: and they glorified God, saying: A great prophet is risen up among us: and, God hath visited his people. And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the country round about.
