WEEKDAY (15) / OUR LADY OF MT. CARMEL (OPT. MEM.)

Office: Psalter Week 3

Mass and Preface: Mass and Preface of the day or Memorial

Vestment: Green/White

Today’s Rosary: Luminous Mystery

FIRST READING: A reading from the Book of Isaiah 26:7-9.12.16-19 “O dwellers in the dust, awake and sing for joy.” The way of the righteous is level; you make smooth the path of the righteous. In the path of your judgements, O Lord, we wait for you; your memorial name is the desire of our soul. My soul yearns for you in the night, my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgements are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness. O Lord, you will ordain peace for us, you have wrought for us all our works. O Lord, in distress they sought you, they poured out a prayer when your chastening was upon them. Like a woman with child, who writhes and cries out in her pangs, when she is near her time, so were we because of you, O Lord; we were with child, we writhed, but we gave birth only to wind. We have wrought no deliverance in the earth, and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen. Your dead shall live, their bodies shall rise. O dwellers in the dust, awake and sing for joy! For your dew is a dew of light, and on the land of the shades you will let it fall.

V/ The word of the Lord.

R/ Thanks be to God
