A reading from the book of Proverbs.
"The Lord begot me, the firstborn of his ways,
the forerunner of his prodigies of long ago.
From of old I was poured forth at the first before the earth.
When there were no depths, I was brought forth.
When there were not fountains or springs of water,
before the mountains were settled into place,
before the hills, I was brought forth.
While as yet the earth and the fields were not made,
nor the first cloths of the world,
when he established the heavens i was there when he marked out the vault over the face of the deep when he made firm the skies above and poised the fountains of waters
when he set for the sea its limit so that the waters shall not transgress his command
When he fixed fast the foundations of the earth,
then was I beside him as his craftsman,
and I was his delight day by day,
playing before him all the while,
playing on the surface of his earth,
and I found delight in the sons of men.
So now, O children, listen to me.
Happy those who keep my ways.
Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
Happy the man who obeys me, watching daily at my gates,
waiting at my doorsteps, for he who finds me finds life
and wins favor from the Lord.
Blessed and Venerable art thou, O Virgin Mary.
O Virgin Mother of God, he whom the world cannot contain,
Alleluia.
Happy art thou, O Holy Virgin Mary, and most worthy of all his praise.
Cleanse my heart and my lips, Almighty God,
who did send thy holy angel from on high
to cleanse the lips of thy holy prophet Isaiah
with a burning coal.
And thou say to thy gracious mercies to purify me,
that I may worthily proclaim thy holy gospel
through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
The Lord be with you.
And with thy spirit.

The beginning of the Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Lord Saint John.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men, and the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not.
There was a man sent from God whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the light, that all men through him might believe.
He was not that light, but was sent to bear witness of that light.
That was the true light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to
them that believe on his name, which were born not of blood, nor of the will of the
flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
And the word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.
And we beheld his glory, the glory as is the only begotten of the Father, full of grace
and truth.
Thanks be to God.
