De libro Génesis

The Lesson is taken from
the book of Genesis

Dixit Dóminus ad Noë : Ingrédere tu, et omnis domus tua in arcam : te enim vidi justum coram me in generatióne hac.  Ex ómnibus animántibus mundis tolles septéna et septéna, másculum et féminam : de animántibus vero immúndis duo et duo, másculum et féminam.  Sed et de volatílibus cæli septéna et septéna, másculum et féminam : ut salvétur semen super fáciem univérsæ terræ.  Adhuc enim, et post dies septem ego pluam super terram quadragínta diébus et quadragínta nóctibus : et delébo omnem substántiam, quam feci, de superfície terræ. 

And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.  Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.  Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.  For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

V.  Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R.  Deo grátias.

V.  But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R.  Thanks be to God.

R.  In artículo diéi illíus ingréssus est Noë in arcam et fílii ejus, * Uxor illíus et uxóres filiórum ejus.
V.  Deléta sunt univérsa de terra, remánsit autem solus Noë, et qui cum eo erant in arca.
R.  Uxor illíus et uxóres filiórum ejus.

R.  In the selfsame day entered Noah into the ark, *  His sons, and his wife, and the wives of his sons.
V.  All flesh died that moved upon the earth : and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.
R.  His sons, and his wife, and the wives of his sons.

Fecit ergo Noë ómnia, quæ mandáverat ei Dóminus.  Cumque transíssent septem dies, aquæ dilúvii inundavérunt super terram.  Anno sexcentésimo vitæ Noë, mense secúndo, séptimo décimo die mensis, rupti sunt omnes fontes abyssi magnæ, et cataráctæ cæli apértæ sunt : et facta est plúvia super terram quadragínta diébus et quadragínta nóctibus. 

And Noah did according unto all that the Lord commanded him.  And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.  In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.  And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

V.  Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R.  Deo grátias.

V.  But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R.  Thanks be to God.

R.  Recordátus Dóminus Noë, addúxit  spíritum super terram, et imminútæ sunt aquæ : * Et prohíbitæ sunt plúviæ de cælis.
V.  Reversæque sunt aquæ de terra eúntes et redeúntes, et cœpérunt mínui post centum quinquagínta dies.
R.  Et prohíbitæ sunt plúviæ de cælis.

R.  And God remembered Noah, and made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged : *  And the rain from heaven was restrained.
V.  The waters returned from off the earth continually : and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.
R.  And the rain from heaven was restrained.

In Feastdays of Simple rank :

V.  Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.
R.  Et prohíbitæ sunt plúviæ de cælis.

V.  Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
R.  And the rain from heaven was restrained.

And on such Feastdays of Simple rank, the Third Lesson is read according to the Proper.

Proper Third Lesson

In artículo diéi illíus ingréssus est Noë, et Sem, et Cham, et Jápheth fílii ejus, uxor illíus, et tres uxóres filiórum ejus cum eis in arcam : ipsi et omne ánimal secúndum genus suum, univérsaque juménta in génere suo, et omne quod movétur super terram in génere suo, cunctúmque volátile secúndum genus suum.  Factúmque est dilúvium quadragínta diébus super terram : et multiplicátæ sunt aquæ, et elevavérunt arcam in sublíme a terra.

In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark; they, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.  And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.

V.  Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R.  Deo grátias.

V.  But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

R.  Quadragínta dies et noctes apérti sunt cæli, et ex omni carne habénte spíritum vitæ ingréssa sunt in arcam : * Et clausit a foris óstium Dóminus.
V.  In artículo diéi illíus ingréssus est Noë in arcam et fílii ejus, et uxor illíus et uxóres filiórum ejus.
R.  Et clausit a foris óstium Dóminus.
V.  Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.
R.  Et clausit a foris óstium Dóminus.

R.  Forty days and forty nights were the heavens opened ; and two of all flesh went in unto Noah into the ark : * And the Lord shut them in.
V.  In the selfsame day entered Noah into the ark, his sons, and his wife, and the wives of his sons.
R.  And the Lord shut them in.
