Gospel Mark 6:30-34

  • 30And the Apostles, returning to Jesus, reported to him everything that they had done and taught.

  • 31And he said to them, “Go out alone, into a deserted place, and rest for a little while.” For there were so many who were coming and going, that they did not even have time to eat.

  • 32And climbing into a boat, they went away to a deserted place alone.

  • 33And they saw them going away, and many knew about it. And together they ran by foot from all the cities, and they arrived before them.

  • 34And Jesus, going out, saw a great multitude. And he took pity on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things.

Computed by Bless from the US Lectionary cycle — confirm with your parish.

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.
