    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Rv 21:9b-14

    The angel spoke to me, saying,
    "Come here.
    I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb."
    He took me in spirit to a great, high mountain
    and showed me the holy city Jerusalem
    coming down out of heaven from God.
    It gleamed with the splendor of God.
    Its radiance was like that of a precious stone,
    like jasper, clear as crystal.
    It had a massive, high wall,
    with twelve gates where twelve angels were stationed
    and on which names were inscribed,
    the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
    There were three gates facing east,
    three north, three south, and three west.
    The wall of the city had twelve courses of stones as its foundation,
    on which were inscribed the twelve names
    of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Ps 145:10-11, 12-13, 17-18

    R. (12) Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your Kingdom.
    Let all your works give you thanks, O LORD,
    and let your faithful ones bless you.
    Let them discourse of the glory of your Kingdom
    and speak of your might.
    R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your Kingdom.
    Making known to men your might
    and the glorious splendor of your Kingdom.
    Your Kingdom is a Kingdom for all ages,
    and your dominion endures through all generations.
    R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your Kingdom.
    The LORD is just in all his ways
    and holy in all his works.
    The LORD is near to all who call upon him,
    to all who call upon him in truth.
    R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your Kingdom.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Jn 1:45-51

    Philip found Nathanael and told him,
    "We have found the one about whom Moses wrote in the law,
    and also the prophets, Jesus son of Joseph, from Nazareth."
    But Nathanael said to him,
    "Can anything good come from Nazareth?"
    Philip said to him, "Come and see."
    Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him,
    "Here is a true child of Israel.
    There is no duplicity in him."
    Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?"
    Jesus answered and said to him,
    "Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree."
    Nathanael answered him,
    "Rabbi, you are the Son of God;you are the King of Israel."
    Jesus answered and said to him,
    "Do you believe
    because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree?
    You will see greater things than this."
    And he said to him, "Amen, amen, I say to you,
    you will see heaven opened and the angels of God
    ascending and descending on the Son of Man."

    Ordinary Time.

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    2 Thes 1:1-5, 11-12

    Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy to the Church of the Thessalonians
    in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
    grace to you and peace from God our Father
    and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    We ought to thank God always for you, brothers and sisters,
    as is fitting, because your faith flourishes ever more,
    and the love of every one of you for one another grows ever greater.
    Accordingly, we ourselves boast of you in the churches of God
    regarding your endurance and faith in all your persecutions
    and the afflictions you endure.

    This is evidence of the just judgment of God,
    so that you may be considered worthy of the Kingdom of God
    for which you are suffering.

    We always pray for you,
    that our God may make you worthy of his calling
    and powerfully bring to fulfillment every good purpose
    and every effort of faith,
    that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you,
    and you in him,
    in accord with the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Sing to the LORD a new song;
    sing to the LORD, all you lands.
    Sing to the LORD;bless his name.
    R. Proclaim God's marvelous deeds to all the nations.
    Announce his salvation, day after day.
    Tell his glory among the nations;
    among all peoples, his wondrous deeds.
    R. Proclaim God's marvelous deeds to all the nations.
    For great is the LORD and highly to be praised;
    awesome is he, beyond all gods.
    For all the gods of the nations are things of nought,
    but the LORD made the heavens.
    R. Proclaim God's marvelous deeds to all the nations.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Mt 23:13-22

    Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples:
    "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites.
    You lock the Kingdom of heaven before men.
    You do not enter yourselves,
    nor do you allow entrance to those trying to enter.

    "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites.
    You traverse sea and land to make one convert,
    and when that happens you make him a child of Gehenna
    twice as much as yourselves.

    "Woe to you, blind guides, who say,
    'If one swears by the temple, it means nothing,
    but if one swears by the gold of the temple, one is obligated.'
    Blind fools, which is greater, the gold,
    or the temple that made the gold sacred?
    And you say, 'If one swears by the altar, it means nothing,
    but if one swears by the gift on the altar, one is obligated.'
    You blind ones, which is greater, the gift,
    or the altar that makes the gift sacred?
    One who swears by the altar swears by it and all that is upon it;
    one who swears by the temple swears by it
    and by him who dwells in it;
    one who swears by heaven swears by the throne of God
    and by him who is seated on it."
