Ps 73:20; 73:19; 73:23
Look to Your covenant, O Lord, forsake not forever the lives of Your afflicted ones. Arise, O Lord; defend Your cause; be not unmindful of the voices of those who ask You.
Ps 73:1
Why, O God, have You cast us off forever? Why does Your anger smolder against the sheep of Your pasture?
Glory Be to the Father…
Look to Your covenant, O Lord, forsake not forever the lives of Your afflicted ones. Arise, O Lord; defend Your cause; be not unmindful of the voices of those who ask You.

Almighty, eternal God, grant us an increase of faith, hope and charity; and make us love what You command so that we may be made worthy to attain what You promise.

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Galatians
Gal 3:16-22
Brethren: The promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. He does not say, And to his offsprings, as of many; but as of one, And to your offspring, Who is Christ. Now I mean this: The Law which was made four hundred and thirty years later does not annul the covenant which was ratified by God, so as to make the promise void. For if the right to inherit be from the Law, it is no longer from a promise. But God gave it to Abraham by promise. What then was the Law? It was enacted on account of transgressions, being delivered by angels through a mediator, until the offspring should come to whom the promise was made. Now there is no intermediary where there is only one; but God is one. Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? By no means. For if a law had been given that could give life, justice would truly be from the Law. But the Scriptures shut up all things under sin, that by the faith of Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.

Ps 73:20, 19, 22
Look to Your covenant, O Lord, be not unmindful of the lives of Your afflicted ones.
℣. Arise, O Lord; defend Your cause; remember the reproach of Your servants.
Ps 89:1
℣. O Lord, You have been our refuge through all generations.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke
Luke 17:11-19
At that time, Jesus was going to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee. And as He was entering a certain village, there He met ten lepers, who stood afar off and lifted up their voice, crying, Jesus, Master, have pity on us. And when He saw them He said, Go, show yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass as they were on their way, that they were made clean. But one of them, seeing that he was made clean, returned, with a loud voice glorifying God, and he fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks; and he was a Samaritan. But Jesus answered and said, Were not the ten made clean? But where are the nine? Has no one been found to return and give glory to God, except this foreigner? And He said to him, Arise, go your way, for your faith has saved you.

Ps 30:15-16
My trust is in You, O Lord; I say, You are my God. In Your hands is my destiny.

Look with favor upon Your people, O Lord, look with favor upon their gifts; so that, appeased by this offering, You will grant us pardon and give us what we ask.

It is truly meet and just, and profitable unto salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, O Holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God, through Christ, our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominions adore it, the Powers are in awe. Which the heavens and the hosts of heaven together with the blessed Seraphim joyfully do magnify. And do Thou command that it be permitted us to join with them in confessing Thee, while we say with lowly praise:

Wis 16:20
You have given us, O Lord, bread from heaven, endowed with all delights and the sweetness of every taste.

Having received Your heavenly sacrament, O Lord, may we make progress, we beseech You, toward our everlasting salvation.
Through our Lord…
