Douay-Rheims: Jonas 3:1-5, 10

¹And the word of the Lord came to Jonas the second time, saying: ²Arise, and go to Ninive the great city: and preach in it the preaching that I bid thee. ³And Jonas arose, and went to Ninive, according to the word of the Lord: now Ninive was a great city of three days’ journey. ⁴And Jonas began to enter into the city one day’s journey: and he cried, and said: Yet forty days, and Ninive shall be destroyed. ⁵And the men of Ninive believed in God: and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth from the greatest to the least.

¹⁰And God saw their works, that they were turned from their evil way: and God had mercy with regard to the evil which he had said that he would do to them, and he did it not.

Douay-Rheims: Psalm 24:4-9 (Psalm 25 at Mass)

⁴Let all them be confounded that act unjust things without cause. Shew, O Lord, thy ways to me, and teach me thy paths. ⁵Direct me in thy truth, and teach me; for thou art God my Saviour; and on thee have I waited all the day long. ⁶Remember, O Lord, thy bowels of compassion; and thy mercies that are from the beginning of the world. ⁷The sins of my youth and my ignorances do not remember. According to thy mercy remember thou me: for thy goodness’ sake, O Lord. ⁸The Lord is sweet and righteous: therefore he will give a law to sinners in the way. ⁹He will guide the mild in judgment: he will teach the meek his ways.

Douay-Rheims: 1 Corinthians 7:29-31

²⁹This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none; ³⁰And 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; ³¹And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.

Douay-Rheims: Mark 1:14-20

¹⁴And after that John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, ¹⁵And saying: The time is accomplished, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent, and believe the gospel. ¹⁶And passing by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, casting nets into the sea (for they were fishermen). ¹⁷And Jesus said to them: Come after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. ¹⁸And immediately leaving their nets, they followed him. ¹⁹And going on from thence a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were mending their nets in the ship: ²⁰And forthwith he called them. And leaving their father Zebedee in the ship with his hired men, they followed him.
