Gospel Mark 9:30-37
29And setting out from there, they passed through Galilee. And he intended that no one know about it.
30Then he taught his disciples, and he said to them, “For the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him, and having been killed, on the third day he will rise again.”
31But they did not understand the word. And they were afraid to question him.
32And they went to Capernaum. And when they were in the house, he questioned them, “What did you discuss on the way?”
33But they were silent. For indeed, on the way, they had disputed among themselves as to which of them was greater.
34And sitting down, he called the twelve, and he said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, he shall be the last of all and the minister of all.”
35And taking a child, he set him in their midst. And when he had embraced him, he said to them:
36“Whoever receives one such child in my name, receives me. And whoever receives me, receives not me, but him who sent me.”

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.
