Gospel Mark 11:27-33

  • 27And they went again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the temple, the leaders of the priests, and the scribes, and the elders approached him.

  • 28And they said to him: “By what authority do you do these things? And who has given you this authority, so that you would do these things?”

  • 29But in response, Jesus said to them: “I also will ask you one word, and if you answer me, I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

  • 30The baptism of John: was it from heaven or from men? Answer me.”

  • 31But they discussed it among themselves, saying: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’

  • 32If we say, ‘From men,’ we fear the people. For they all hold that John was a true prophet.”

  • 33And answering, they said to Jesus, “We do not know.” And in response, Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

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.
