First Reading

2 Samuel 6:12-15, 17-19

12And it was told King David, “The LORD has blessed the household of Oʹbed-eʹdom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Oʹbed-eʹdom to the city of David with rejoicing;

13and when those who bore the ark of the LORD had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatling.

14And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.

15So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the horn.

17And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, inside the tent which David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.

18And when David had finished offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts,

19and distributed among all the people, the whole multitude of Israel, both men and women, to each a cake of bread, a portion of meat, and a cake of raisins. Then all the people departed, each to his house.

Gospel

Mark 3:31-35

31And his mother and his brethren came; and standing outside they sent to him and called him.

32And a crowd was sitting about him; and they said to him, “Your mother and your brethren are outside, asking for you.”

33And he replied, “Who are my mother and my brethren?”

34And looking around on those who sat about him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brethren!

35Whoever does the will of God is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
