For an obligation has been laid upon me. And woe to me, if I do not preach the Gospel. - 17 For if I do this willingly, I have a reward. But if I do this reluctantly, a dispensation is granted to me. - 18 And what, then, would be my reward? So, when preaching the Gospel, I should give the Gospel without taking, so that I may not misuse my authority in the Gospel. - 19 For when I was a free man to all, I made myself the servant of all, so that I might gain all the more. - 22 To the weak, I became weak, so that I might gain the weak. To all, I became all, so that I might save all. - 23 And I do everything for the sake of the Gospel, so that I may become its partner.

And at once they told him about her. - 31 And drawing near to her, he raised her up, taking her by the hand. And immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them. - 32 Then, when evening arrived, after the sun had set, they brought to him all who had maladies and those who had demons. - 33 And the entire city was gathered together at the door. - 34 And he healed many who were troubled with various illnesses. And he cast out many demons, but he would not permit them to speak, because they knew him. - 35 And rising up very early, departing, he went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed. - 36 And Simon, and those who were with him, followed after him. - 37 And when they had found him, they said to him, “For everyone is seeking you.” - 38 And he said to them: “Let us go into the neighboring towns and cities, so that I may preach there also. Indeed, it was for this reason that I came.” - 39 And he was preaching in their synagogues and throughout all of Galilee, and casting out demons.

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?
