Responsorial Psalm
Sing to the Lord a new song,
for he has done wonders;
his right hand, his holy arm,
have brought salvation
The Lord has shown his salvation,
revealing his justice to the nations.
He has not forgotten his love
nor his faithfulness to Israel.
To the farthest ends of the earth
all have seen God's saving power.
Shout to the Lord all the earth,
Ring out your joy.
2nd. READING (2 Tim 2, 8-13)
Remember Christ Jesus, risen from the dead, Jesus, son of David, as preached in my
Gospel
word of God is not chained. And so I bear everything for the sake of the chosen
people, that they, too, may obtain the salvation given to us in Christ Jesus and share
eternal glory. This statement is true: If we have died with him, we shall also live with
him; If we deny him, he will also deny us; If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful for
he cannot deny himself.
Gospel
On the way to Jerusalem, Jesus was passing along the border between Samaria and
Galilee, and as he entered a village, ten lepers came to meet him. Keeping their
distance, they called to him, "Jesus, Master, have pity on us!". Then Jesus said to
them, "Go and show yourselves to the priests." Now, as they went their way, they
found they were cured. One of them, as soon as he saw he was cleansed, turned back
praising God in a loud voice, and throwing himself on his face before Jesus, he gave
him thanks. This man was a Samaritan. Then Jesus said, "Were not all ten healed?
Where are the other nine? 18 Was no one found to return and give praise to God but
this alien?" And Jesus said to him, "Stand up and go your way; your faith has saved
you."
