7How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good news, and that preacheth peace: of him that shows forth good, that preacheth salvation, that says to Sion: Your God shall reign!

8The voice of your watchmen: they have lifted up their voice, they shah praise together: for they shall see eye to eye when the Lord shall convert Sion

9Rejoice, and give praise together, OH you deserts of Jerusalem: for the Lord has comforted his people: he has rescued Jerusalem.

10The Lord has prepared his holy arm before all the Gentiles: and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

1A psalm for David himself. Sing you to the Lord anew canticle: because he has done wonderful things. His right hand has wrought for him salvation, and his arm is holy.

2The Lord has made known his salvation: he has revealed his righteousness before the Gentiles.

3He has remembered his mercy his truth toward the people of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

4Sing joyfully to God, all the earth; make melody, rejoice and sing.

1God, who, at sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, last of all,

2In these days has said to us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the world.

3Who being the brightness of his glory, and the figure of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, making purgation of sins, sits on the right hand of the majesty on high.

4Being made so much better than the angels, as he has inherited a more excellent name than they.

5For to which of the angels has he said at any time, You art my Son, to day have I begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

6And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he says: And let all the angels of God adore him.

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2The same was in the beginning with God.

3All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made.

4In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

5And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

7This man came for a witness, to give teaching of the light, that all men might believe through him.

8He was not the light, but was to give teaching of the light.

9That was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that comes into this world.

10He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

11He came to his own, and his own received him not.

12But as many as received him, he gave them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in his name.

13Who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

14And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

15John beareth witness of him, and cries out, saying: This was he of whom I spoke: The one who will come after me, is preferred before me: because he was before me.

16And of his fulness we all have received, and grace for grace.

17For the law was given by Moses; grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

18No man has seen God at any time: the only begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, he has told him.
