Traditional Latin Mass Gospel Readings

And in the end of the sabbath, when it began to dawn towards the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalen and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre.
Vespere autem sabbati, quae lucescit in prima sabbati, venit Maria Magdalene, et altera Maria, videre sepulchrum.

2 And behold there was a great earthquake. For an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and coming, rolled back the stone, and sat upon it.
Et ecce terraemotus factus est magnus. Angelus enim Domini descendit de caelo : et accedens revolvit lapidem, et sedebat super eum :

3 And his countenance was as lightning, and his raiment as snow.
erat autem aspectus ejus sicut fulgur : et vestimentum ejus sicut nix.

4 And for fear of him, the guards were struck with terror, and became as dead men.
Prae timore autem ejus exterriti sunt custodes, et facti sunt velut mortui.

5 And the angel answering, said to the women: Fear not you; for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
Respondens autem angelus dixit mulieribus : Nolite timere vos : scio enim, quod Jesum, qui crucifixus est, quaeritis.

6 He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, and see the place where the Lord was laid.
Non est hic : surrexit enim, sicut dixit : venite, et videte locum ubi positus erat Dominus.

7 And going quickly, tell ye his disciples that he is risen: and behold he will go before you into Galilee; there you shall see him. Lo, I have foretold it to you.
Et cito euntes, dicite discipulis ejus quia surrexit : et ecce praecedit vos in Galilaeam : ibi eum videbitis : ecce praedixi vobis.
