Read in the CPDV: Psalm 1
16But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplace,
17who, calling out to their companions, say: ‘We played music for you, and you did not dance. We lamented, and you did not mourn.’
18For John came neither eating nor drinking; and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
19The Son of man came eating and drinking; and they say, ‘Behold, a man who eats voraciously and who drinks wine, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ But wisdom is justified by her sons.”

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.
