Gospel Mark 10:13-16

  • 13And they brought to him the little children, so that he might touch them. But the disciples admonished those who brought them.

  • 14But when Jesus saw this, he took offense, and he said to them: “Allow the little ones to come to me, and do not prohibit them. For of such as these is the kingdom of God.

  • 15Amen I say to you, whoever will not accept the kingdom of God like a little child, will not enter into it.”

  • 16And embracing them, and laying his hands upon them, he blessed them.

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.
