First ReadingPhilippians 2:5-11
5For this understanding in you was also in Christ Jesus:
6who, though he was in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be seized.
7Instead, he emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and accepting the state of a man.
8He humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, even the death of the Cross.
9Because of this, God has also exalted him and has given him a name which is above every name,
10so that, at the name of Jesus, every knee would bend, of those in heaven, of those on earth, and of those in hell,
11and so that every tongue would confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father.
15When someone sitting at table with him had heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will eat bread in the kingdom of God.”
16So he said to him: “A certain man prepared a great feast, and he invited many.
17And he sent his servant, at the hour of the feast, to tell the invited to come; for now everything was ready.
18And at once they all began to make excuses. The first said to him: ‘I bought a farm, and I need to go out and see it. I ask you to excuse me.’
19And another said: ‘I bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to examine them. I ask you to excuse me.’
20And another said, ‘I have taken a wife, and therefore I am not able to go.’
21And returning, the servant reported these things to his lord. Then the father of the family, becoming angry, said to his servant: ‘Go out quickly into the streets and neighborhoods of the city. And lead here the poor, and the disabled, and the blind, and the lame.’
22And the servant said: ‘It has been done, just as you ordered, lord, and there is still room.’
23And the lord said to the servant: ‘Go out to the highways and hedges, and compel them to enter, so that my house may be filled.
24For I tell you, that none of those men who were invited will taste of my feast.’”
Citations as published in the USCCB liturgical calendar.
In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.
Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
