Second Reading Acts 10:34-38
34Then, Peter, opening his mouth, said: “I have concluded in truth that God is not a respecter of persons.
35But within every nation, whoever fears him and works justice is acceptable to him.
36God sent the Word to the sons of Israel, announcing the peace through Jesus Christ, for he is the Lord of all.
37You know that the Word has been made known throughout all Judea. For beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached,
38Jesus of Nazareth, whom God anointed with the Holy Spirit and with power, traveled around doing good and healing all those oppressed by the devil. For God was with him.

7And he preached, saying: “One stronger than me comes after me. I am not worthy to reach down and loosen the laces of his shoes.

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.
