The First Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians 1: 26-31

1:26 So take care of your vocation, fratres. For not many are wise according to the flesh, not many are powerful, not many are noble.
1:27 But God has chosen the foolish of the world, so that he may confound the wise. And God has chosen the weak of the world, so that he may confound the strong.
1:28 And God has chosen the ignoble and contemptible of the world, those who are nothing, so that he may reduce to nothing those who are something.
1:29 Sic igitur, nothing that is of the flesh should glory in his sight.
1:30 But you are of him in Christ Jesus, who was made by God to be our wisdom and justice and sanctification and redemption.
1:31 Itaque, in the same way, it was written: “Whoever glories, should glory in the Lord.”

Lectio sancti Evangelii secundum Matthaeum 25: 14-20

25:14 Est enim quasi homo proficiscens in via longissima, qui vocavit servos suos et tradidit illis bona sua.
25:15 et uni quinque talenta dedit, et alii duo, alteri tamen unum dedit, unicuique secundum suam facultatem. Et confestim, profectus est.
25:16 Exiit ergo qui quinque talenta acceperat, his usus est, et alia quinque.
25:17 Et similiter, qui duo acceperat, lucratus est alia duo.
25:18 At ille qui unum, exire, effossa in terram, et abscondit pecuniam domini sui.
25:19 Sed vere, longo tempore, Reversus est dominus servorum illorum et posuit rationem cum eis.
25:20 Et accedens qui quinque talenta acceperat, alia quinque talenta, dicens: Domini, quinque talenta tradidisti mihi. Ecce, ego ab aliis quinque auxit.'
