May our frailty, we beseech You, O Lord, find support in the help of Your mercy; so that what is marred by its own nature may be restored by Your grace.

Amos 9:13-15
Thus says the Lord God: Yes, days are coming, when the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the vintager, him who sows the seed; the juice of grapes shall drip down the mountains, and all the hills shall run with it. I will bring about the restoration of My people Israel; they shall rebuild and inhabit their ruined cities, plant vineyards and drink the wine, set out gardens and eat the fruits. I will plant them upon their own ground; never again shall they be plucked from the land I have given them, say I, the Lord, your God.
Thanks be to God.
Léctio Amos Prophétæ
Amos 9:13-15
Hæc dicit Dóminus Deus: Ecce, dies véniunt: et comprehéndet arátor messórem, et calcátor uvæ mitténtem semen: et stillábunt montes dulcédinem, et omnes colles culti erunt. Et convértam captivitátem pópuli mei Israël: et ædificábunt civitátes desértas et inhabitábunt: et plantábunt víneas et bibent vinum eárum: et fácient hortos et cómedent fructus eórum. Et plantábo eos super humum suam: et non evéllam eos ultra de terra sua, quam dedi eis: dicit Dóminus, Deus tuus.
Deo gratias.
Ps 112:5-7

Quis sicut Dóminus, Deus noster, qui in altis hábitat, et humilia réspicit in cœlo et in terra?
℣. Súscitans a terra ínopem et de stércore érigens páuperem.
O Lord, we beseech You, grant to Your praying household that, as they fast from bodily food, they may also abstain mentally from sin.
Through our Lord…
Præsta, quǽsumus, Dómine, famíliæ tuæ supplicánti: ut, dum a cibis corporálibus se ábstinet, a vítiis quoque mente jejúnet.

Lesson from the book of Esdra
2 Esd. 8:1-10
In those days, all the people were gathered together as one man, to the street which is before the water-gate, and they spoke to Esdras the scribe, to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the Lord had commanded to Israel. Then Esdras the priest brought the law before the multitude of men and women, and all those that could understand, on the first day of the seventh month. And he read it plainly in the street that was before the water-gate, from the morning until midday, before the men and the women and all those that could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive to the book. And Esdras the scribe stood upon a step of wood, which he made to speak upon. And he opened the book before all the people, for he was above all the people; and when he had opened it, all the people stood. And Esdras blessed the Lord the great God, and all the people answered, Amen, Amen, lifting up their hands: and they bowed down, and adored God, with their faces to the ground. Now the Levites made silence among the people to hear the law; and the people stood in their place: and they read in the book of the law of God distinctly and plainly to be understood; and they understood when it was read. And Nehemias, and Esdras the priest and scribe, and the Levites who interpreted to all the people, said, This is a holy day to the Lord our God; do not mourn nor weep. And he said to them, Go, eat fat meats and drink sweet wine, and send portions to them that have not prepared for themselves; because it is the holy day of the Lord, and be not sad, for the joy of the Lord is our strength.
Léctio libri Esdræ
Neh 8:1-10
In diébus illis: Congregátus est omnis pópulus quasi vir unus ad platéam, quæ est ante portam aquárum: et dixérunt Esdræ scribæ, ut afférret librum legis Moysi, quam præcéperat Dóminus Israéli. Attulit ergo Esdras sacérdos legem coram multitúdine virórum et mulíerum, cunctísque qui póterant intellégere, in die prima mensis séptimi. Et legit in eo apérte in platéa, quæ erat ante portam aquárum, de mane usque ad médiam diem, in conspéctu virórum et mulíerum et sapiéntium: et aures omnis pópuli erant eréctæ ad librum. Stetit autem Esdras scriba super gradum lígneum, quem fécerat ad loquendum. Et apéruit librum coram omni pópulo: super univérsum quippe pópulum eminébat: et cum aperuísset eum, stetit omnis pópulus. Et benedíxit Esdras Dómino, Deo magno: et respóndit omnis pópulus: Amen, Amen: élevans manus suas: et incurváti sunt et adoravérunt Deum proni in terram. Porro levítæ siléntium faciébant in pópulo ad audiéndam legem: pópulus autem stabat in gradu suo. Et legérunt in libro legis Dei distíncte et apérte ad intellegéndum: et intellexérunt, cum legerétur. Dixit autem Nehemías, et Esdras sacérdos et scriba, et levítæ interpretántes univérso pópulo: Dies sanctificátus est Dómino, Deo nostro, nolíte lugére et nolíte flere. Et dixit eis: Ite, comédite pínguia et bíbite mulsum, et míttite partes his, qui non præparavérunt sibi: quia sanctus dies Dómini est, et nolíte contristári: gáudium étenim Dómini est fortitúdo nostra.
Ps 32:12, 6
Happy the nation whose God is the Lord, the people the Lord has chosen for His own inheritance.
℣. By the word of the Lord the heavens were made; by the breath of His mouth all their host.
Ps 32:12 ; 32:6
Beáta gens, cujus est Dóminus Deus eórum: pópulus, quem elégit Dóminus in hereditátem sibi.
℣. Verbo Dómini cœli firmáti sunt: et spíritu oris ejus omnis virtus eórum.
Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Mark
Mark 9:16-28
At that time, one of the crowd answering, said to Jesus, Master, I have brought to You my son, who has a dumb spirit; and wherever it seizes him it throws him down, and he foams and grinds his teeth; and he is wasting away. And I told Your disciples to cast it out, but they could not. And He answered and said to them, O unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him to Me. And they brought him to Him; and the spirit, when it saw Jesus, immediately threw the boy into convulsions, and he fell down on the ground, and rolled about foaming at the mouth. So He asked his father, How long is it since this has come upon him? And he said, From his infancy. Oftentimes it has thrown him into the fire and into the waters to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us. But Jesus said to him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. At once the father of the boy cried out, and said with tears, I do believe; help my unbelief. Now when Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering. He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, go out of him and enter him no more. And crying out and violently convulsing him, it went out of him, and he became like one dead, so that many said, He is dead. But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him and he stood up. And when He had come into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, Why could not we cast it out? And He said to them, This kind can be cast out in no way except by prayer and fasting.
Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Marcum
Marc 9:16-28
In illo témpore: Respóndens unus de turba, dixit ad Jesum: Magíster, áttuli fílium meum ad te, habéntem spíritum mutum: qui, ubicúmque eum apprehénderit, allídit illum, et spumat et stridet déntibus et aréscit: et dixi discípulis tuis, ut ejícerent illum, et non potúerunt. Qui respóndens eis, dixit: O generátio incrédula, quámdiu apud vos ero? quámdiu vos pátiar? Afférte illum ad me. Et attúlerunt eum. Et cum vidísset eum, statim spíritus conturbávit illum: et elísus in terram, volutabátur spumans. Et interrogávit patrem ejus: Quantum témporis est, ex quo ei hoc áccidit? At ille ait: Ab infántia: et frequénter eum in ignem et in aquas misit, ut eum pérderet. Sed si quid potes, ádjuva nos, misértus nostri. Jesus autem ait illi: Si potes credere, ómnia possibília sunt credénti. Et contínuo exclámans pater pueri, cum lácrimis ajébat: Credo, Dómine: ádjuva incredulitátem meam. Et cum vidéret Jesus concurréntem turbam, comminátus est spirítui immundo, dicens illi: Surde et mute spíritus, ego præcípio tibi, exi ab eo: et ámplius ne intróëas in eum. Et exclámans et multum discérpens eum, éxiit ab eo, et factus est sicut mórtuus, ita ut multi dícerent: Quia mórtuus est. Jesus autem tenens manum ejus, elevávit eum, et surréxit. Et cum introísset in domum, discípuli ejus secréto interrogábant eum: Quare nos non potúimus ejícere eum? Et dixit illis: Hoc genus in nullo potest exíre nisi in oratióne et jejúnio.

I will delight in Your commands, which I love exceedingly. And I will lift up my hands to Your commands, which I love.

Common
It is truly meet and just, and profitable unto salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, O Holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God, through Christ, our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominions adore it, the Powers are in awe. Which the heavens and the hosts of heaven together with the blessed Seraphim joyfully do magnify. And do Thou command that it be permitted us to join with them in confessing Thee, while we say with lowly praise:
