Behold, the lion from the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has prevailed to open the book and to break its seven seals.” - 6 And I saw, and behold, in the midst of the throne and the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb was standing, as if it were slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God, sent forth to all the earth. - 7 And he approached and received the book from the right hand of the One sitting upon the throne. - 8 And when he had opened the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having stringed instruments, as well as golden bowls full of fragrances, which are the prayers of the saints. - 9 And they were singing a new canticle, saying: “O Lord, you are worthy to receive the book and to open its seals, because you were slain and have redeemed us for God, by your blood, from every tribe and language and people and nation. - 10 And you have made us into a kingdom and into priests for our God, and we shall reign over the earth.” Catholic Public Domain Version Read in the CPDV: [The whole of Revelation 5](https://blessbible.app/bible/revelation/5/) ### Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 149:1b-2, 3-4, 5-6b, 9b Read in the CPDV: [Psalm 149](https://blessbible.app/bible/psalms/149/) ### Alleluia: Psalm 95:8 Read in the CPDV: [Psalm 95 (94 in the Vulgate)](https://blessbible.app/bible/psalms/94/) ### Gospel: Luke 19:41-44 - 41 And when he drew near, seeing the city, he wept over it, saying: - 42 “If only you had known, indeed even in this your day, which things are for your peace. But now they are hidden from your eyes. - 43 For the days will overtake you. And your enemies will encircle you with a valley. And they will surround you and hem you in on every side. - 44 And they will knock you down to the ground, with your sons who are in you. And they will not leave stone upon stone within you, because you did not recognize the time of your visitation.” Catholic Public Domain Version Read in the CPDV: [The whole of Luke 19](https://blessbible.app/bible/luke/19/) 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?
