Douay-Rheims: Colossians 2:6-15

⁶As therefore you have received Jesus Christ the Lord, walk ye in him; ⁷Rooted and built up in him, and confirmed in the faith, as also you have learned, abounding in him in thanksgiving. ⁸Beware lest any man cheat you by philosophy, and vain deceit; according to the tradition of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ: ⁹For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead corporeally; ¹⁰And you are filled in him, who is the head of all principality and power: ¹¹In whom also you are circumcised with circumcision not made by hand, in despoiling of the body of the flesh, but in the circumcision of Christ: ¹²Buried with him in baptism, in whom also you are risen again by the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him up from the dead. ¹³And you, when you were dead in your sins, and the uncircumcision of your flesh; he hath quickened together with him, forgiving you all offences: ¹⁴Blotting out the handwriting of the decree that was against us, which was contrary to us. And he hath taken the same out of the way, fastening it to the cross: ¹⁵And despoiling the principalities and powers, he hath exposed them confidently in open shew, triumphing over them in himself.

Douay-Rheims: Psalm 144:1-2, 8-11 (Psalm 145 at Mass)

¹I will extol thee, O God my king: and I will bless thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever. ²Every day I will bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.

⁸The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy. ⁹The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. ¹⁰Let all thy works, O Lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee. ¹¹They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom: and shall tell of thy power:

Douay-Rheims: Luke 6:12-19

¹²And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and he passed the whole night in the prayer of God. ¹³And when day was come, he called unto him his disciples; and he chose twelve of them (whom also he named apostles). ¹⁴Simon, whom he surnamed Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew, ¹⁵Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon who is called Zelotes, ¹⁶And Jude, the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who was the traitor. ¹⁷And coming down with them, he stood in a plain place, and the company of his disciples, and a very great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast both of Tyre and Sidon, ¹⁸Who were come to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases. And they that were troubled with unclean spirits, were cured. ¹⁹And all the multitude sought to touch him, for virtue went out from him, and healed all.
