Weekday

First Reading

Romans 8:31-39

31What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who is against us?

32He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him?

33Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies;

34who is to condemn? Is it Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us?

35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

36As it is written, “For thy sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”

37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

38For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

39nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Responsorial Psalm

Psalms 109:21-22, 26-27, 30-31

21But thou, O God my Lord, deal on my behalf for thy name’s sake; because thy steadfast love is good, deliver me!

22For I am poor and needy, and my heart is stricken within me.

26Help me, O LORD my God! Save me according to thy steadfast love!

27Let them know that this is thy hand; thou, O LORD, hast done it!

30With my mouth I will give great thanks to the LORD; I will praise him in the midst of the throng.

31For he stands at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who condemn him to death.

Gospel

Luke 13:31-35

31At that very hour some Pharisees came, and said to him, “Get away from here, for Herod wants to kill you.”

32And he said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I finish my course.

33Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the day following; for it cannot be that a prophet should perish away from Jerusalem.’

34O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to you! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not!

35Behold, your house is forsaken. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!’ ”
