Douay-Rheims: Genesis 9:8-15

⁸Thus also said God to Noe, and to his sons with him, ⁹Behold I will establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you: ¹⁰And with every living soul that is with you, as well in all birds as in cattle and beasts of the earth, that are come forth out of the ark, and in all the beasts of the earth. ¹¹I will establish my covenant with you, and all flesh shall be no more destroyed with the waters of a flood, neither shall there be from henceforth a flood to waste the earth. ¹²And God said: This is the sign of the covenant which I give between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations. ¹³I will set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be the sign of a covenant between me, and between the earth. ¹⁴And when I shall cover the sky with clouds, my bow shall appear in the clouds: ¹⁵And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that beareth flesh: and there shall no more be waters of a flood to destroy all flesh.

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 Peter 3:18-22

¹⁸Because Christ also died once for our sins, the just for the unjust: that he might offer us to God, being put to death indeed in the flesh, but enlivened in the spirit, ¹⁹In which also coming he preached to those spirits that were in prison: ²⁰Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water. ²¹Whereunto baptism being of the like form, now saveth you also: not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the examination of a good conscience towards God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. ²²Who is on the right hand of God, swallowing down death, that we might be made heirs of life everlasting: being gone into heaven, the angels and powers and virtues being made subject to him.

Douay-Rheims: Mark 1:12-15

¹²And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the desert. ¹³And he was in the desert forty days and forty nights, and was tempted by Satan; and he was with beasts, and the angels ministered to him. 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.
