Douay-Rheims: Isaias 65:17-21

¹⁷For behold I create new heavens, and a new earth: and the former things shall not be in remembrance, and they shall not come upon the heart. ¹⁸But you shall be glad and rejoice for ever in these things, which I create: for behold I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and the people thereof joy. ¹⁹And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people, and the voice of weeping shall no more be heard in her, nor the voice of crying. ²⁰There shall no more be an infant of days there, nor an old man that shall not fill up his days: for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed. ²¹And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruits of them.

Douay-Rheims: Psalm 29:2, 4-6, 11-13 (Psalm 30 at Mass)

²I will extol thee, O Lord, for thou hast upheld me: and hast not made my enemies to rejoice over me.

⁴Thou hast brought forth, O Lord, my soul from hell: thou hast saved me from them that go down into the pit. ⁵Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: and give praise to the memory of his holiness. ⁶For wrath is in his indignation; and life in his good will. In the evening weeping shall have place, and in the morning gladness.

¹¹The Lord hath heard, and hath had mercy on me: the Lord became my helper. ¹²Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness: ¹³To the end that my glory may sing to thee, and I may not regret: O Lord my God, I will give praise to thee for ever.

Douay-Rheims: John 4:43-54

⁴³Now after two days, he departed thence, and went into Galilee. ⁴⁴For Jesus himself gave testimony that a prophet hath no honour in his own country. ⁴⁵And when he was come into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things he had done at Jerusalem on the festival day; for they also went to the festival day. ⁴⁶He came again therefore into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capharnaum. ⁴⁷He having heard that Jesus was come from Judea into Galilee, went to him, and prayed him to come down, and heal his son; for he was at the point of death. ⁴⁸Jesus therefore said to him: Unless you see signs and wonders, you believe not. ⁴⁹The ruler saith to him: Lord, come down before that my son die. ⁵⁰Jesus saith to him: Go thy way; thy son liveth. The man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went his way. ⁵¹And as he was going down, his servants met him; and they brought word, saying, that his son lived. ⁵²He asked therefore of them the hour wherein he grew better. And they said to him: Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him. ⁵³The father therefore knew, that it was at the same hour that Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth; and himself believed, and his whole house. ⁵⁴This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judea into Galilee.
