First Reading

1 Samuel 3:1-10, 19-20

1Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD under Eli. And the word of the LORD was rare in those days; there was no frequent vision.

2At that time Eli, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see, was lying down in his own place;

3the lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down within the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was.

4Then the LORD called, “Samuel! Samuel!” and he said, “Here I am!”

5and ran to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you called me.” But he said, “I did not call; lie down again.” So he went and lay down.

6And the LORD called again, “Samuel!” and Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you called me.” But he said, “I did not call, my son; lie down again.”

7Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, and the word of the LORD had not yet been revealed to him.

8And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you called me.” Then Eli perceived that the LORD was calling the boy.

9Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “Go, lie down; and if he calls you, you shall say, ‘Speak, LORD, for thy servant hears.’ ” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

10And the LORD came and stood forth, calling as at other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” And Samuel said, “Speak, for thy servant hears.”

19And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground.

20And all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was established as a prophet of the LORD.

Responsorial Psalm

Psalms 40:2, 5, 7-10

1I waited patiently for the LORD; he inclined to me and heard my cry.

4Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, who does not turn to the proud, to those who go astray after false gods!

6Sacrifice and offering thou dost not desire; but thou hast given me an open ear. Burnt offering and sin offering thou hast not required.

7Then I said, “Lo, I come; in the roll of the book it is written of me;

8I delight to do thy will, O my God; thy law is within my heart.”

9I have told the glad news of deliverance in the great congregation; lo, I have not restrained my lips, as thou knowest, O LORD.

Gospel

Mark 1:29-39

29And immediately he left the synagogue, and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

30Now Simon’s mother-in-law lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him of her.

31And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her; and she served them.

32That evening, at sundown, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed with demons.

33And the whole city was gathered together about the door.

34And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.

35And in the morning, a great while before day, he rose and went out to a lonely place, and there he prayed.

36And Simon and those who were with him followed him,

37and they found him and said to him, “Every one is searching for you.”

38And he said to them, “Let us go on to the next towns, that I may preach there also; for that is why I came out.”

39And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons.
