Friday of the Second Week of Holy Pentecost<br />
The Vespers Gospel<br />
Psalm 15:9<br />
A Psalm of David.<br />
Therefore my heart has been gladdened, and my tongue has rejoiced:<br />
moreover, my flesh also shall dwell in hope. Alleluia.<br />
Matthew 17:14-18<br />
<strong>St</strong>and with the fear of God. Let us hear the Holy Gospel. Bless, O Lord, the reading of the Holy Gospel, according to<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Matthew. Blessed be He Who comes in the Name of the Lord. Our Lord, God, Saviour, and King of us all, Jesus Christ,<br />
Son of the Living God, to Whom is glory forever.<br />
And when they were come to<br />
the multitude, there came to him a<br />
certain man, kneeling down to him,<br />
and saying, Lord, have mercy on my<br />
son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed:<br />
for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and<br />
oft into the water. And I brought him<br />
to thy disciples, and they could not<br />
cure him. Then Jesus answered and<br />
said, O faithless and perverse<br />
generation, how long shall I be with<br />
you? how long shall I suffer you?<br />
bring him hither to me. And Jesus<br />
rebuked the devil; and he departed<br />
out of him: and the child was cured<br />
from that very hour. Glory be to God forever.<br />
The Matins Gospel<br />
Psalm 15:10-11<br />
A Psalm of David.<br />
For Thou wilt not leave my soul in Amenti; neither wilt Thou suffer Thine<br />
Holy One to see corruption. Thou hast instructed me in the ways of life: Thou<br />
wilt fill me with joy by Thy countenance. Alleluia.<br />
Matthew 16:21-23<br />
<strong>St</strong>and with the fear of God. Let us hear the Holy Gospel. Bless, O Lord, the reading of the Holy Gospel, according to<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Matthew. Blessed be He Who comes in the Name of the Lord. Our Lord, God, Saviour, and King of us all, Jesus Christ,<br />
Son of the Living God, to Whom is glory forever.<br />
From that time forth began Jesus<br />
to shew unto his disciples, how that he<br />
must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer<br />
many things of the elders and chief<br />
priests and scribes, and be killed, and<br />
be raised again the third day. Then<br />
Peter took him, and began to rebuke<br />
him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord:<br />
this shall not be unto thee. But he<br />
turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee<br />
behind me, Satan: thou art an offence<br />
unto me: for thou savourest not the<br />
things that be of God, but those that<br />
be of men. Glory be to God forever.<br />
