Catholic Public Domain Version Read in the CPDV: [The whole of Philippians 2](https://blessbible.app/bible/philippians/2/) ### Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 22:26b-27, 28-30ab, 30e, 31-32 Read in the CPDV: [Psalm 22 (21 in the Vulgate)](https://blessbible.app/bible/psalms/21/) ### Alleluia: Matthew 11:28 Read in the CPDV: [Matthew 11](https://blessbible.app/bible/matthew/11/) ### Gospel: Luke 14:15-24 - 15 When 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.” - 16 So he said to him: “A certain man prepared a great feast, and he invited many. - 17 And he sent his servant, at the hour of the feast, to tell the invited to come; for now everything was ready. - 18 And 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.’ - 19 And another said: ‘I bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to examine them. I ask you to excuse me.’ - 20 And another said, ‘I have taken a wife, and therefore I am not able to go.’ - 21 And 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.’ - 22 And the servant said: ‘It has been done, just as you ordered, lord, and there is still room.’ - 23 And 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. - 24 For I tell you, that none of those men who were invited will taste of my feast.’” Catholic Public Domain Version Read in the CPDV: [The whole of Luke 14](https://blessbible.app/bible/luke/14/) 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. Spotted a wrong date, color or citation?
