De Epistola prima beati Pauli Apostoli ad Corinthios. |
Lesson from the first letter of St Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians |
|
1 Cor 7:25-31 |
1 Cor 7:25-31 |
|
25 De virginibus autem praeceptum Domini non habeo: consilium autem do, tamquam misericordiam consecutus a Domino, ut sim fidelis. |
25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful. |
|
26 Existimo ergo hoc bonum esse propter instantem necessitatem, quoniam bonum est homini sic esse. |
26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be. |
|
27 Alligatus es uxori? noli quaerere solutionem. Solutus es ab uxore? noli quaerere uxorem. |
27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife. |
|
28 Si autem acceperis uxorem, non peccasti. Et si nupserit virgo, non peccavit: tribulationem tamen carnis habebunt huiusmodi. Ego autem vobis parco. |
28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you. |
|
29 Hoc itaque dico, fratres: tempus breve est: reliquum est, ut et qui habent uxores, tamquam non habentes sint: |
29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none; |
|
30 Et qui flent, tamquam non flentes: et qui gaudent, tamquam non gaudentes: et qui emunt, tamquam non possidentes: |
30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not; |
|
31 Et qui utuntur hoc mundo, tamquam non utantur: praeterit enim figura huius mundi. |
31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away. |
|

1 Cor 7:32-35 |
|
32 Volo autem vos sine sollicitudine esse. Qui sine uxore est, sollicitus est quae Domini sunt, quomodo placeat Deo. |
32 But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God. |
|
33 Qui autem cum uxore est, sollicitus est quae sunt mundi, quomodo placeat uxori, et divisus est. |
33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided. |
|
34 Et mulier innupta, et virgo, cogitat quae Domini sunt, ut sit sancta corpore, et spiritu. Quae autem nupta est, cogitat quae sunt mundi, quomodo placeat viro. |
34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband. |
|
35 Porro hoc ad utilitatem vestram dico: non ut laqueum vobis iniiciam, sed ad id, quod honestum est, et quod facultatem praebeat sine impedimento Dominum obsecrandi. |
35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment. |
|
1 Cor 7:36-40 |
1 Cor 7:36-40 |
|
36 Si quis autem turpem se videri existimat super virgine sua, quod sit superadulta, et ita oportet fieri: quod vult faciat: non peccat, si nubat. |
36 But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry. |
|
37 Nam qui statuit in corde suo firmus, non habens necessitatem, potestatem autem habens suae voluntatis, et hoc iudicavit in corde suo, servare virginem suam, bene facit. |
37 For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well. |
|
38 Igitur et qui matrimonio iungit virginem suam, bene facit: et qui non iungit, melius facit. |
38 Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better. |
|
39 Mulier alligata est legi quanto tempore vir eius vivit, quod si dormierit vir eius, liberata est: cui vult nubat, tantum in Domino. |
39 A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord. |
|
40 Beatior autem erit si sic permanserit secundum meum consilium: puto autem quod et ego Spiritum Dei habeam. |
40 But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God. |

Cæcília, Virgo Romána, nóbili génere nata, a prima ætáte virginitátem suam Deo vovit. Sed, cum invíta núptui data esset Valeriáno, huic persuásit, ut ipsam illibátam relínqueret et ad beátum Urbánum Papam iret, ut, accépto baptísmate, dignus fieret, qui Angelum Cæcíliæ protectórem vidéret. Quod cum Valeriánus obtinuísset, fratrem suum Tibúrtium convértit ad Christum, ita ut ambo paulo post sub Almáchio præfécto martyrium subíerint. Cæcília autem ab eódem Almáchio comprehénsa, quod illórum facultátes in páuperes distribuísset, in bálneo combúri iussa est. Sed, cum flamma eam attíngere non audéret, ibídem secúri ter percússa et semivíva relícta, post tríduum virginitátis et martyrii palmam est consecúta, et in coemetério Callísti sepúlta. Eius et Urbáni ac Lúcii Pontíficum, Tibúrtii, Valeriáni et Máximi córpora, a Pascháli Papa primo in Urbem transláta, in ecclésia, ipsíus sanctæ Cæcíliæ nómine consecráta, cóndita sunt. |
Cecilia a Roman virgin of noble birth vowed her virginity to God at a very early age. Unwillingly given in marriage to Valerian, she persuaded him to leave her untouched and go to blessed Urban. the Pope, that when he had been baptized he might be worthy to see Cecilia's angelic protector. When Valerian had obtained this favor, he converted his brother Tiburtius to Christ, and a little later both were martyred under the prefect Almachius. But Cecilia was seized by the same prefect because she had distributed the two brothers' wealth to the poor, and orders were given to have her suffocated in a bath. When the heat dared not harm her. she was struck three times with an axe and left half dead. After three days she received the palm of virginity and of martyrdom, and was buried in the cemetery of Callistus. Her body and those of Popes Urban and Lucius, and of Tiburtins, Valerian and Maximus were transferred by Pope Paschal I to a church in the City dedicated to St. Cecilia. |

|
72:3 Quia zelávi super iníquos, * pacem peccatórum videns. |

72:20 As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing. |
|
72:21 Quia inflammátum est cor meum, et renes mei commutáti sunt: * et ego ad níhilum redáctus sum, et nescívi. |
72:21 For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not. |

72:22 Ut iuméntum factus sum apud te: * et ego semper tecum. |
72:22 I am become as a beast before thee: * and I am always with thee. |

72:25 Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum. |
72:25 For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: * thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever. |
