    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Eph 4:7-16

    Brothers and sisters:
    Grace was given to each of us
    according to the measure of Christ"s gift.
    Therefore, it says:

    He ascended on high and took prisoners captive;
    he gave gifts to men.

    What does "he ascended" mean except that he also descended
    into the lower regions of the earth?
    The one who descended is also the one who ascended
    far above all the heavens,
    that he might fill all things.

    And he gave some as Apostles, others as prophets,
    others as evangelists, others as pastors and teachers,
    to equip the holy ones for the work of ministry,
    for building up the Body of Christ,
    until we all attain to the unity of faith
    and knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood
    to the extent of the full stature of Christ,
    so that we may no longer be infants,
    tossed by waves and swept along by every wind of teaching
    arising from human trickery,
    from their cunning in the interests of deceitful scheming.
    Rather, living the truth in love,
    we should grow in every way into him who is the head, Christ,
    from whom the whole Body,
    joined and held together by every supporting ligament,
    with the proper functioning of each part,
    brings about the Body's growth and builds itself up in love.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Ps 122:1-2, 3-4ab, 4cd-5

    R. (1) Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
    I rejoiced because they said to me,
    "We will go up to the house of the LORD."
    And now we have set foot
    within your gates, O Jerusalem.
    R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
    Jerusalem, built as a city
    with compact unity.
    To it the tribes go up,
    the tribes of the LORD.
    R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
    According to the decree for Israel,
    to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
    In it are set up judgment seats,
    seats for the house of David.
    R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Lk 13:1-9

    Some people told Jesus about the Galileans
    whose blood Pilate had mingled with the blood of their sacrifices.
    He said to them in reply,
    "Do you think that because these Galileans suffered in this way
    they were greater sinners than all other Galileans?
    By no means!
    But I tell you, if you do not repent,
    you will all perish as they did!
    Or those eighteen people who were killed
    when the tower at Siloam fell on them?
    do you think they were more guilty
    than everyone else who lived in Jerusalem?
    By no means!
    But I tell you, if you do not repent,
    you will all perish as they did!"

    And he told them this parable:
    "There once was a person who had a fig tree planted in his orchard,
    and when he came in search of fruit on it but found none,
    he said to the gardener,
    'For three years now I have come in search of fruit on this fig tree
    but have found none.
    So cut it down.
    Why should it exhaust the soil?'
    He said to him in reply,
    'Sir, leave it for this year also,
    and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it;
    it may bear fruit in the future.
    If not you can cut it down.'"
