Opening Sentence
In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
ISAIAH 40:3
Confession of Sin
The Officiant says to the People
Let us humbly confess our sins to Almighty God.
Dearly beloved, the Scriptures teach us to acknowledge our many sins and offenses, not concealing them from our heavenly Father, but confessing them with humble and obedient hearts that we may obtain forgiveness by his infinite goodness and mercy. We ought at all times humbly to acknowledge our sins before Almighty God, but especially when we come together in his presence to give thanks for the great benefits we have received at his hands, to declare his most worthy praise, to hear his holy Word, and to ask, for ourselves and on behalf of others, those things which are necessary for our life and our salvation. Therefore, draw near with me to the throne of heavenly grace.
Let us humbly confess our sins to Almighty God.
Silence is kept. All kneeling, the Officiant and People say
Almighty and most merciful Father,
we have erred and strayed from your ways like lost sheep.
We have followed too much the devices and desires
of our own hearts.
We have offended against your holy laws.
We have left undone those things which we ought to have done,
and we have done those things which we ought not
to have done;
and apart from your grace, there is no health in us.
O Lord, have mercy upon us.
Spare all those who confess their faults.
Restore all those who are penitent, according to your promises
declared to all people in Christ Jesus our Lord.
And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake,
that we may now live a godly, righteous, and sober life,
to the glory of your holy Name. Amen.
A Deacon or layperson remains kneeling and prays
Grant to your faithful people, merciful Lord, pardon and peace; that we may be cleansed from all our sins, and serve you with a quiet mind; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Priest alone stands and says
The Almighty and merciful Lord grant you absolution and remission of all your sins, true repentance, amendment of life, and the grace and consolation of his Holy Spirit.Amen.
Almighty God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, desires not the death of sinners, but that they may turn from their wickedness and live. He has empowered and commanded his ministers to pronounce to his people, being penitent, the absolution and remission of their sins. He pardons and absolves all who truly repent and genuinely believe his holy Gospel. For this reason, we beseech him to grant us true repentance and his Holy Spirit, that our present deeds may please him, the rest of our lives may be pure and holy, and that at the last we may come to his eternal joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Almighty and merciful Lord grant you absolution and remission of all your sins, true repentance, amendment of life, and the grace and consolation of his Holy Spirit. Amen.

O come, let us adore him.
O come, let us sing unto the Lord; *
let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation.
Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving *
and show ourselves glad in him with psalms.
For the Lord is a great God *

In his hand are all the depths of the earth, *
and the heights of the hills are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it, *
and his hands prepared the dry land.

Today, if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts *
as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness,
When your fathers tested me, *
and put me to the proof, though they had seen my works.

“It is a people that err in their hearts, for they have not known my ways,”
Of whom I swore in my wrath *
that they should not enter into my rest.

Psalm 78:41-73
Attendite, popule
41 Many times they provoked him in the wilderness*
and grieved him in the desert.
42 They turned back, and tested God,*
and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
43 They remembered not his power,*
nor the day when he delivered them from the hand of the enemy,
44 How he had wrought his miracles in Egypt*
and his wonders in the field of Zoan.
45 He turned their waters into blood,*
so that they might not drink of the rivers.
46 He sent flies among them, which devoured them up,*
and frogs to destroy them.
47 He gave their fruit to the grasshopper*
and their labor to the locust.
48 He destroyed their vines with hailstones*
and their sycamore trees with the frost.
49 He smote their cattle also with hailstones*
and their flocks with hot thunderbolts.
50 He cast upon them the furiousness of his wrath, anger, displeasure, and trouble,*
sending these destroying angels among them.
51 He made a way for his indignation, and did not spare their soul from death,*
but gave their life over to the pestilence,
52 And smote all the firstborn in Egypt,*
the firstfruits of their strength in the dwellings of Ham.
53 But as for his own people, he led them forth like sheep*
and carried them in the wilderness like a flock.
54 He brought them out safely, and they were not afraid;*
he overwhelmed their enemies with the sea,
55 And brought them within the borders of his holy land,*
to his mountain which he obtained with his right hand.
56 He cast out the nations before them,*
and caused their land to be divided among them for an inheritance, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
57 But they tested and displeased the Most High God,*
and did not keep his testimonies,
58 But turned their backs and fell away like their forefathers,*
twisting aside like a broken bow.
59 For they grieved him with their hill altars*
and provoked him to displeasure with their images.
60 When God heard this, he was full of wrath*
and utterly rejected Israel,
61 So that he forsook the tabernacle in Shiloh,*
even the tent that he had pitched among them.
62 He delivered the ark into captivity,*
and his glory into the enemy's hand.
63 He gave his people over to the sword*
and was angry with his inheritance.
64 Fire consumed their young men,*
and their maidens had no marriage songs.
65 Their priests were slain with the sword,*
and their widows made no lamentation.
66 Then the Lord awakened as one out of sleep,*
and like a warrior recovered from wine.
67 He drove his enemies backward*
and put them to a perpetual shame.
68 He rejected the tabernacle of Joseph*
and did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
69 But chose the tribe of Judah,*
even the hill of Zion which he loved.
70 And there he built his sanctuary, like the heights of heaven,*
like the earth which he had established for ever.
71 He chose David his servant,*
and took him away from the sheepfolds;
72 As he was following the ewes that were great with young, God took him,*
that he might feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.
73 So he fed them with a faithful and true heart,*
and guided them with skillful hands.

Psalm 1
Beatus vir qui non abiit
1 Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly,*
nor stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of the scornful;
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,*
and on his law will he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the waterside,*
that will bring forth his fruit in due season.
4 His leaf also shall not wither;*
and look, whatever he does, it shall prosper.
5 As for the ungodly, it is not so with them;*
but they are like the chaff, which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.
6 Therefore the ungodly shall not be able to stand in the judgment,*
neither the sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
7 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,*
but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Psalm 2
Quare fremuerunt gentes?
1 Why do the nations so furiously rage together?*
And why do the peoples devise a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together,*
against the Lord and against his Anointed:
3 "Let us break their bonds asunder*
and cast away their cords from us."
4 He who dwells in heaven shall laugh them to scorn;*
the Lord shall hold them in derision.
5 Then shall he speak to them in his wrath*
and terrify them in his great anger:
6 "I myself have set my King*
upon my holy hill of Zion."
7 I will proclaim the decree of the Lord;*
he said to me, "You are my Son; this day have I begotten you.
8 Ask of me, and I shall give you the nations for your inheritance*
and the ends of the earth for your possession.
9 You shall bruise them with a rod of iron*
and break them in pieces like a potter's vessel."
10 Be wise now, O you kings;*
be warned, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord in fear,*
and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way; for his wrath is quickly kindled.*
Blessed are all those who put their trust in him.
Psalm 3
Domine, quid multiplicati?
1 Lord, how they are increased who trouble me;*
many are those who rise against me.
2 Many there are who say of my soul,*
"There is no help for him in his God."
3 But you, O Lord, are my defender;*
you are my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 I called upon the Lord with my voice,*
and he heard me from his holy hill.
5 I lay down and slept, and rose up again,*
for the Lord sustained me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people*
who have set themselves against me round about.
7 Rise up, O Lord, and help me, O my God;*
for you smite all my enemies on the cheek-bone; you have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 Salvation belongs to the Lord;*
may your blessing be upon your people.
Psalm 4
Cum invocarem
1 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness;*
you set me free when I was in trouble; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2 O you children of men, how long will you blaspheme my honor,*
and have such pleasure in vanity, and seek after falsehood?
3 Know this also, that the Lord has chosen for himself the one that is godly;*
when I call upon the Lord, he will hear me.
4 Stand in awe, and sin not;*
commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still.
5 Offer the sacrifice of righteousness*
and put your trust in the Lord.
6 There are many that say, "Who will show us any good?"*
Lord, lift up the light of your countenance upon us.
7 You have put gladness in my heart,*
more than when others' grain and wine and oil increased.
8 I will lay me down in peace, and take my rest;*
for you, Lord, only, make me dwell in safety.
Psalm 5
Verba mea auribus
1 Give ear to my words, O Lord;*
consider my meditation.
2 O hearken unto the voice of my calling, my King and my God,*
for unto you will I make my prayer.
3 My voice shall you hear in the morning, O Lord;*
early in the morning will I direct my prayer unto you, and will look up.
4 For you are not a god who has pleasure in wickedness,*
neither shall any evil dwell with you.
5 The boastful shall not stand in your sight,*
for you hate all those who work iniquity.
6 You shall destroy those who speak lies;*
the Lord will abhor the bloodthirsty and the deceitful.
7 But as for me, through the multitude of your mercies I will come into your house,*
and in reverence will I bow myself toward your holy temple.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness, because of my enemies;*
make your way straight before my face.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;*
their heart is eaten up with wickedness.
10 Their throat is an open sepulcher;*
they flatter with their tongue.
11 Declare them guilty, O God; let them fall because of their own devices;*
because of the multitude of their transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you.
12 But let all those who put their trust in you rejoice;*
let them ever give thanks because you defend them; those who love your Name shall be joyful in you.
13 For you, Lord, will give your blessing unto the righteous,*
and with your favorable kindness you will defend him as with a shield.

The First Lesson
Sirach 14
The lesson is read, the people sitting
| Reader | A reading from Ecclesiasticus, the Wisdom of Jesus Son of Sirach , beginning with the fourteenth chapter, the first verse |
Blessed is the man who does not blunder with his lips
and need not suffer grief for sin.
2 Blessed is he whose heart does not condemn him,
and who has not given up his hope.
Responsible Use of Wealth
3 Riches are not seemly for a stingy man;
and of what use is property to an envious man?
4 Whoever accumulates by depriving himself, accumulates for others;
and others will live in luxury on his goods.
5 If a man is mean to himself, to whom will he be generous?
He will not enjoy his own riches.
6 No one is meaner than the man who is grudging to himself,
and this is the retribution for his baseness;
7 even if he does good, he does it unintentionally,
and betrays his baseness in the end.
8 Evil is the man with a grudging eye;
he averts his face and disregards people.
9 A greedy man’s eye is not satisfied with a portion,
and mean injustice withers the soul.
10 A stingy man’s eye begrudges bread,
and it is lacking at his table.
11 My son, treat yourself well, according to your means,
and present worthy offerings to the Lord.
12 Remember that death will not delay,
and the decree of Hades has not been shown to you.
13 Do good to a friend before you die,
and reach out and give to him as much as you can.
14 Do not deprive yourself of a happy day;
let not your share of desired good pass by you.
15 Will you not leave the fruit of your labors to another,
and what you acquired by toil to be divided by lot?
16 Give, and take, and beguile yourself,
because in Hades one cannot look for luxury.
17 All living beings become old like a garment,
for the decree from of old is, “You must surely die!”
18 Like flourishing leaves on a spreading tree
which sheds some and puts forth others,
so are the generations of flesh and blood:
one dies and another is born.
19 Every product decays and ceases to exist,
and the man who made it will pass away with it.
The Happiness of Seeking Wisdom
20 Blessed is the man who meditates on wisdom
and who reasons intelligently.
21 He who reflects in his mind on her ways
will also ponder her secrets.
22 Pursue wisdom like a hunter,
and lie in wait on her paths.
23 He who peers through her windows
will also listen at her doors;
24 he who encamps near her house
will also fasten his tent peg to her walls;
25 he will pitch his tent near her,
and will lodge in an excellent lodging place;
26 he will place his children under her shelter,
and will camp under her boughs;
27 he will be sheltered by her from the heat,
and will dwell in the midst of her glory.

Isaiah 44
The lesson is read, the people sitting
| Reader | A reading from the Prophet Isaiah, beginning with the forty-fourth chapter, the first verse |
Israel the Lord's Chosen
“But now hear, O Jacob my servant,
Israel whom I have chosen!
2 Thus says the Lord who made you,
who formed you from the womb and will help you:
Fear not, O Jacob my servant,
Jeshurun whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour my Spirit upon your offspring,
and my blessing on your descendants.
4 They shall spring up among the grass
like willows by flowing streams.
5 This one will say, ‘I am the Lord's,’
another will call on the name of Jacob,
and another will write on his hand, ‘The Lord's,’
and name himself by the name of Israel.”
Besides Me There Is No God
6 Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel
and his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
“I am the first and I am the last;
besides me there is no god.
7 Who is like me? Let him proclaim it.
Let him declare and set it before me,
since I appointed an ancient people.
Let them declare what is to come, and what will happen.
8 Fear not, nor be afraid;
have I not told you from of old and declared it?
And you are my witnesses!
Is there a God besides me?
There is no Rock; I know not any.”
The Folly of Idolatry
9 All who fashion idols are nothing, and the things they delight in do not profit. Their witnesses neither see nor know, that they may be put to shame. 10 Who fashions a god or casts an idol that is profitable for nothing? 11 Behold, all his companions shall be put to shame, and the craftsmen are only human. Let them all assemble, let them stand forth. They shall be terrified; they shall be put to shame together.
12 The ironsmith takes a cutting tool and works it over the coals. He fashions it with hammers and works it with his strong arm. He becomes hungry, and his strength fails; he drinks no water and is faint. 13 The carpenter stretches a line; he marks it out with a pencil. He shapes it with planes and marks it with a compass. He shapes it into the figure of a man, with the beauty of a man, to dwell in a house. 14 He cuts down cedars, or he chooses a cypress tree or an oak and lets it grow strong among the trees of the forest. He plants a cedar and the rain nourishes it. 15 Then it becomes fuel for a man. He takes a part of it and warms himself; he kindles a fire and bakes bread. Also he makes a god and worships it; he makes it an idol and falls down before it. 16 Half of it he burns in the fire. Over the half he eats meat; he roasts it and is satisfied. Also he warms himself and says, “Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire!” 17 And the rest of it he makes into a god, his idol, and falls down to it and worships it. He prays to it and says, “Deliver me, for you are my god!”
18 They know not, nor do they discern, for he has shut their eyes, so that they cannot see, and their hearts, so that they cannot understand. 19 No one considers, nor is there knowledge or discernment to say, “Half of it I burned in the fire; I also baked bread on its coals; I roasted meat and have eaten. And shall I make the rest of it an abomination? Shall I fall down before a block of wood?” 20 He feeds on ashes; a deluded heart has led him astray, and he cannot deliver himself or say, “Is there not a lie in my right hand?”
The Lord Redeems Israel
21 Remember these things, O Jacob,
and Israel, for you are my servant;
I formed you; you are my servant;
O Israel, you will not be forgotten by me.
22 I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud
and your sins like mist;
return to me, for I have redeemed you.
23 Sing, O heavens, for the Lord has done it;
shout, O depths of the earth;
break forth into singing, O mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
and will be glorified in Israel.
24 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer,
who formed you from the womb:
“I am the Lord, who made all things,
who alone stretched out the heavens,
who spread out the earth by myself,
25 who frustrates the signs of liars
and makes fools of diviners,
who turns wise men back
and makes their knowledge foolish,
26 who confirms the word of his servant
and fulfills the counsel of his messengers,
who says of Jerusalem, ‘She shall be inhabited,’
and of the cities of Judah, ‘They shall be built,
and I will raise up their ruins’;
27 who says to the deep, ‘Be dry;
I will dry up your rivers’;
28 who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd,
and he shall fulfill all my purpose’;
saying of Jerusalem, ‘She shall be built,’
and of the temple, ‘Your foundation shall be laid.’”

The Second Lesson
Acts 24:1-23
The lesson is read, the people sitting
| Reader | A reading from the Acts of the Apostles, beginning with the twenty-fourth chapter, the first verse |
Paul Before Felix at Caesarea
And after five days the high priest Ananias came down with some elders and a spokesman, one Tertullus. They laid before the governor their case against Paul. 2 And when he had been summoned, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying:
“Since through you we enjoy much peace, and since by your foresight, most excellent Felix, reforms are being made for this nation, 3 in every way and everywhere we accept this with all gratitude. 4 But, to detain you no further, I beg you in your kindness to hear us briefly. 5 For we have found this man a plague, one who stirs up riots among all the Jews throughout the world and is a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes. 6 He even tried to profane the temple, but we seized him. 8 By examining him yourself you will be able to find out from him about everything of which we accuse him.”
9 The Jews also joined in the charge, affirming that all these things were so.
10 And when the governor had nodded to him to speak, Paul replied:
“Knowing that for many years you have been a judge over this nation, I cheerfully make my defense. 11 You can verify that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship in Jerusalem, 12 and they did not find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the temple or in the synagogues or in the city. 13 Neither can they prove to you what they now bring up against me. 14 But this I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, believing everything laid down by the Law and written in the Prophets, 15 having a hope in God, which these men themselves accept, that there will be a resurrection of both the just and the unjust. 16 So I always take pains to have a clear conscience toward both God and man. 17 Now after several years I came to bring alms to my nation and to present offerings. 18 While I was doing this, they found me purified in the temple, without any crowd or tumult. But some Jews from Asia— 19 they ought to be here before you and to make an accusation, should they have anything against me. 20 Or else let these men themselves say what wrongdoing they found when I stood before the council, 21 other than this one thing that I cried out while standing among them: ‘It is with respect to the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you this day.’”
Paul Kept in Custody
22 But Felix, having a rather accurate knowledge of the Way, put them off, saying, “When Lysias the tribune comes down, I will decide your case.” 23 Then he gave orders to the centurion that he should be kept in custody but have some liberty, and that none of his friends should be prevented from attending to his needs.

Luke 9:18-50
The lesson is read, the people sitting
| Reader | A reading from the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to St. Luke, beginning with the ninth chapter, the eighteenth verse |
Peter Confesses Jesus as the Christ
18 Now it happened that as he was praying alone, the disciples were with him. And he asked them, “Who do the crowds say that I am?” 19 And they answered, “John the Baptist. But others say, Elijah, and others, that one of the prophets of old has risen.” 20 Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” And Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”
Jesus Foretells His Death
21 And he strictly charged and commanded them to tell this to no one, 22 saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.”
Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus
23 And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. 24 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. 25 For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself? 26 For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels. 27 But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.”
The Transfiguration
28 Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 And as he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became dazzling white. 30 And behold, two men were talking with him, Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. 32 Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. 33 And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here. Let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah”—not knowing what he said. 34 As he was saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, my Chosen One; listen to him!” 36 And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.
Jesus Heals a Boy with an Unclean Spirit
37 On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met him. 38 And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child. 39 And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him so that he foams at the mouth, and shatters him, and will hardly leave him. 40 And I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not.” 41 Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.” 42 While he was coming, the demon threw him to the ground and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father. 43 And all were astonished at the majesty of God.
Jesus Again Foretells His Death
But while they were all marveling at everything he was doing, Jesus said to his disciples, 44 “Let these words sink into your ears: The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.” 45 But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, so that they might not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
Who Is the Greatest?
46 An argument arose among them as to which of them was the greatest. 47 But Jesus, knowing the reasoning of their hearts, took a child and put him by his side 48 and said to them, “Whoever receives this child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For he who is least among you all is the one who is great.”
Anyone Not Against Us Is For Us
49 John answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not follow with us.” 50 But Jesus said to him, “Do not stop him, for the one who is not against you is for you.”

To give his people knowledge of salvation *
