First Reading

1 Corinthians 2:10-16

10God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.

11For what person knows a man’s thoughts except the spirit of the man which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

12Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might understand the gifts bestowed on us by God.

13And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit.

14The unspiritual man does not receive the gifts of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.

15The spiritual man judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.

16“For who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

Responsorial Psalm

Psalms 145:8-14

8The LORD is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.

9The LORD is good to all, and his compassion is over all that he has made.

10All thy works shall give thanks to thee, O LORD, and all thy saints shall bless thee!

11They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and tell of thy power,

12to make known to the sons of men thy mighty deeds, and the glorious splendor of thy kingdom.

13Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endures throughout all generations. The LORD is faithful in all his words, and gracious in all his deeds.

14The LORD upholds all who are falling, and raises up all who are bowed down.

Gospel

Luke 4:31-37

31And he went down to Caperʹna-um, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the sabbath;

32and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority.

33And in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon; and he cried out with a loud voice,

34“Ah! What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God.”

35But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm.

36And they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.”

37And reports of him went out into every place in the surrounding region.
