And hurrying together, they seized him and brought him to the council. - 13 And they set up false witnesses, who said: “This man does not cease to speak words against the holy place and the law. - 14 For we have heard him saying that this Jesus the Nazarene will destroy this place and will change the traditions, which Moses handed down to us.” - 15 And all those who were sitting in the council, gazing at him, saw his face, as if it had become the face of an Angel. Catholic Public Domain Version Read in the CPDV: [The whole of Acts 6](https://blessbible.app/bible/acts/6/) ### Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 119:23-24, 26-27, 29-30 Read in the CPDV: [Psalm 119 (118 in the Vulgate)](https://blessbible.app/bible/psalms/118/) ### Alleluia: Matthew 4:4b Read in the CPDV: [Matthew 4](https://blessbible.app/bible/matthew/4/) ### Gospel: John 6:22-29 - 22 On the next day, the crowd which was standing across the sea saw that there were no other small boats in that place, except one, and that Jesus had not entered into the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had departed alone. - 23 Yet truly, other boats came over from Tiberias, next to the place where they had eaten the bread after the Lord gave thanks. - 24 Therefore, when the crowd had seen that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they climbed into the small boats, and they went to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. - 25 And when they had found him across the sea, they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?” - 26 Jesus answered them and said: “Amen, amen, I say to you, you seek me, not because you have seen signs, but because you have eaten from the bread and were satisfied. - 27 Do not work for food that perishes, but for that which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him.” - 28 Therefore, they said to him, “What should we do, so that we may labor in the works of God?” - 29 Jesus responded and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he sent.” Catholic Public Domain Version Read in the CPDV: [The whole of John 6](https://blessbible.app/bible/john/6/) 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?
