Lectio
EpistleLesson from the first letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians
Fratres: Non misit me Christus baptizáre, sed evangelizáre: non in sapiéntia verbi, ut non evacuétur Crux Christi. Verbum enim Crucis pereúntibus quidem stultítia est: iis autem, qui salvi fiunt, id est nobis, Dei virtus est. Scriptum est enim: Perdam sapiéntiam sapiéntium et prudéntiam prudéntium reprobábo.
Ubi sápiens? ubi scriba? ubi conquisítor hujus sǽculi? Nonne stultam fecit Deus sapiéntiam hujus mundi? Nam quia in Dei sapiéntia non cognóvit mundus per sapiéntiam Deum: plácuit Deo per stultítiam prædicatiónis salvos fácere credéntes.
Quóniam et Judǽi signa petunt et Græci sapiéntiam quærunt: nos autem prædicámus Christum crucifíxum: Judǽis quidem scándalum, géntibus autem stultítiam, ipsis autem vocátis Judǽis atque Græcis Christum Dei virtútem et Dei sapiéntiam: quia, quod stultum est Dei, sapiéntius est homínibus: et, quod infírmum est Dei, fórtius est homínibus.

Evangelium
GospelContinuation + of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
In illo témpore: Accessérunt discípuli ad Jesum dicéntes: Quis, putas, major est in regno cælórum? Et ádvocans Jesus párvulum, státuit eum in médio eórum, et dixit: Amen dico vobis, nisi convérsi fueritis, et efficiámini sicut párvuli, non intrábitis in regnum cœlórum. Quicúmque ergo humiliáverit se sicut párvulus iste, hic est major in regno cœlórum.
Et qui suscéperit unum párvulum talem in nómine meo, me súscipit.
At that time, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in their midst, and said, Amen I say to you, unless you turn and become like little children, you will not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whoever, therefore, humbles himself as this little child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
And whoever receives one such little child for My sake, receives Me.
