And the dead, who are in Christ, shall rise up first. - 17 Next, we who are alive, who are remaining, shall be taken up quickly together with them into the clouds to meet Christ in the air. And in this way, we shall be with the Lord always. - 18 Therefore, console one another with these words.

And he entered into the synagogue, according to his custom, on the Sabbath day. And he rose up to read. - 17 And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. And as he unrolled the book, he found the place where it was written: - 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me; because of this, he has anointed me. He has sent me to evangelize the poor, to heal the contrite of heart, - 19 to preach forgiveness to captives and sight to the blind, to release the broken into forgiveness, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of retribution.” - 20 And when he had rolled up the book, he returned it to the minister, and he sat down. And the eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on him. - 21 Then he began to say to them, “On this day, this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” - 22 And everyone gave testimony to him. And they wondered at the words of grace that proceeded from his mouth. And they said, “Is this not the son of Joseph?” - 23 And he said to them: “Certainly, you will recite to me this saying, ‘Physician, heal yourself.’ The many great things that we have heard were done in Capernaum, do here also in your own country.” - 24 Then he said: “Amen I say to you, that no prophet is accepted in his own country. - 25 In truth, I say to you, there were many widows in the days of Elijah in Israel, when the heavens were closed for three years and six months, when a great famine had occurred throughout the entire land. - 26 And to none of these was Elijah sent, except to Zarephath of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. - 27 And there were many lepers in Israel under the prophet Elisha. And none of these was cleansed, except Naaman the Syrian.” - 28 And all those in the synagogue, upon hearing these things, were filled with anger. - 29 And they rose up and drove him beyond the city. And they brought him all the way to the edge of the mount, upon which their city had been built, so that they might throw him down violently. - 30 But passing through their midst, he went away.

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?
