    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Galatians 5:18-25

    18But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law. 19Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, 20idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, 21envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness, self-control;against such there is no law. 24And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Psalms 1:1-4, 6

    1Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers;2but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3He is like a tree planted by streams of water, that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. 4The wicked are not so, but are like chaff which the wind drives away. 6for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Luke 11:42-46

    42"But woe to you Pharisees! for you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and neglect justice and the love of God;these you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. 43Woe to you Pharisees! for you love the best seat in the synagogues and salutations in the market places. 44Woe to you! for you are like graves which are not seen, and men walk over them without knowing it." 45One of the lawyers answered him, "Teacher, in saying this you reproach us also." 46And he said, "Woe to you lawyers also! for you load men with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.

    Ordinary Time.

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Gal 4:22-24, 26-27, 31-5:1

    Brothers and sisters:
    It is written that Abraham had two sons,
    one by the slave woman and the other by the freeborn woman.
    The son of the slave woman was born naturally,
    the son of the freeborn through a promise.
    Now this is an allegory.
    These women represent two covenants.
    One was from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery;
    this is Hagar.
    But the Jerusalem above is freeborn, and she is our mother.
    For it is written:
    Rejoice, you barren one who bore no children;
    break forth and shout, you who were not in labor;
    for more numerous are the children of the deserted one
    than of her who has a husband.
    Therefore, brothers and sisters,
    we are children not of the slave woman
    but of the freeborn woman.

    For freedom Christ set us free;so stand firm
    and do not submit again to the yoke of slavery.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Ps 113:1b-2, 3-4, 5a and 6-7

    R. (see 2) Blessed be the name of the Lord forever.
    or:
    R. Alleluia, alleluia.
    Praise, you servants of the LORD,
    praise the name of the LORD.
    Blessed be the name of the LORD
    both now and forever.
    R. Blessed be the name of the Lord forever.
    or:
    R. Alleluia, alleluia.
    From the rising to the setting of the sun
    is the name of the LORD to be praised.
    High above all nations is the LORD;
    above the heavens is his glory.
    R. Blessed be the name of the Lord forever.
    or:
    R. Alleluia, alleluia.
    Who is like the LORD, our God,
    who looks upon the heavens and the earth below?
    He raises up the lowly from the dust;
    from the dunghill he lifts up the poor.
    R. Blessed be the name of the Lord forever.
    or:
    R. Alleluia, alleluia.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Lk 11:29-32

    While still more people gathered in the crowd, Jesus said to them,
    "This generation is an evil generation;
    it seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it,
    except the sign of Jonah.
    Just as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites,
    so will the Son of Man be to this generation.
    At the judgment
    the queen of the south will rise with the men of this generation
    and she will condemn them,
    because she came from the ends of the earth
    to hear the wisdom of Solomon,
    and there is something greater than Solomon here.
    At the judgment the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation
    and condemn it,
    because at the preaching of Jonah they repented,
    and there is something greater than Jonah here."
