The Johannine Prologue (St. John
1.1-14)
Learn the Last Gospel Reading Concluding the Tridentine
Mass
Listen to the Prayer as you read
it
Have you
ever wondered what prayer the priest utters at the very end of the
Tridentine Latin Mass --- often called the "Second Gospel"?
Now you can prayer it with him in your hearts at the conclusion of
the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
Listen to the audio
file below and follow the very
first chapter of the Gospel according to Saint John printed below
--- as the priest prays one of the most widely recognized verses in
the Bible.
"In
principio erat Verbum et Verbum erat apud Deum et Deus
erat Verbum. Hoc erat in principio apud Deum. Omnia per
ipsum facta sunt, et sine ipso factum est nihil quod
factum est. In ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hominum.
Et lux in tenebris lucet et tenebrae eam non
conprehenderunt
Fuit homo missus a Deo cui nomen erat Iohannes Hic venit
in testimonium ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine ut
omnes crederent per illum. Non erat ille lux, sed ut
testimonium perhiberet de lumine. Erat lux vera quae
inluminat omnem hominem venientem in mundum. In mundo
erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non
cognovit.
In propria venit et sui eum non receperunt. Quotquot
autem receperunt eum dedit eis potestatem filios Dei,
fieri his qui credunt in nomine eius. Qui non ex
sanguinibus, neque ex voluntate carnis, neque ex
voluntate viri, sed ex Deo nati sunt. (All
kneel at the following)
ET
VERBUM CARO FACTUM EST, et habitavit in nobis,
et vidimus gloriam eius, gloriam quasi unigeniti a Patre,
plenum gratiae et veritatis.
Deo gratias.

"In the beginning was the
Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God. All things were
made by him: and without him was made nothing that was
made. In him was life, and the life was the light of
men. And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness
did not comprehend it.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This
man came for a witness, to give testimony of the light,
that all men might believe through him. He was not the
light, but was to give testimony of the light. That was
the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh
into this world. He was in the world, and the world was
made by him, and the world knew him not.
He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But
as many as received him, he gave them power to be made
the sons of God, to them that believe in his name. Who
are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh,
nor of the will of man, but of God. (here all
kneel) AND 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."
Thanks be to God.
(St. John 1.1-14)
