Douay-Rheims: Genesis 12:1-9

¹And the Lord said to Abram: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and out of thy father’s house, and come into the land which I shall shew thee. ²And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and magnify thy name, and thou shalt be blessed. ³I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee, and IN THEE shall all the kindred of the earth be blessed: ⁴So Abram went out as the Lord had commanded him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went forth from Haran. ⁵And he took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all the substance which they had gathered, and the souls which they had gotten in Haran: and they went out to go into the land of Chanaan. And when they were come into it, ⁶Abram passed through the country into the place of Sichem, as far as the noble vale: now the Chanaanite was at that time in the land. ⁷And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him: To thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him. ⁸And passing on from thence to a mountain, that was on the east side of Bethel, he there pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east; he built there also an altar to the Lord, and called upon his name. ⁹And Abram went forward, going, and proceeding on to the south.

Douay-Rheims: Psalm 32:12-13, 18-20, 22 (Psalm 33 at Mass)

¹²Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord: the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance. ¹³The Lord hath looked from heaven: he hath beheld all the sons of men.

¹⁸Behold the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him: and on them that hope in his mercy. ¹⁹To deliver their souls from death; and feed them in famine. ²⁰Our soul waiteth for the Lord: for he is our helper and protector.

²²Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have hoped in thee.

Douay-Rheims: Matthew 7:1-5

¹Judge not, that you may not be judged, ²For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with what measure you mete, it shall be measured to you again. ³And why seest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye; and seest not the beam that is in thy own eye? ⁴Or how sayest thou to thy brother: Let me cast the mote out of thy eye; and behold a beam is in thy own eye? ⁵Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam in thy own eye, and then shalt thou see to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
