And they were evangelizing in that place. - 7 And a certain man was sitting at Lystra, disabled in his feet, lame from his mother’s womb, who had never walked. - 8 This man heard Paul speaking. And Paul, gazing at him intently, and perceiving that he had faith, so that he might be healed, - 9 said with a loud voice, “Stand upright upon your feet!” And he leaped up and walked around. - 10 But when the crowds had seen what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice in the Lycaonian language, saying, “The gods, having taken the likenesses of men, have descended to us!” - 11 And they called Barnabas, ‘Jupiter,’ yet truly they called Paul, ‘Mercury,’ because he was the lead speaker. - 12 Also, the priest of Jupiter, who was outside the city, in front of the gate, bringing in oxen and garlands, was willing to offer sacrifice with the people. - 13 And as soon as the Apostles, Barnabas and Paul, had heard this, tearing their tunics, they leapt into the crowd, crying out - 14 and saying: “Men, why would you do this? We also are mortals, men like yourselves, preaching to you to be converted, from these vain things, to the living God, who made heaven and earth and the sea and all that is in them. - 15 In previous generations, he permitted all nations to walk in their own ways. - 16 But certainly, he did not leave himself without testimony, doing good from heaven, giving rains and fruitful seasons, filling their hearts with food and gladness.” - 17 And by saying these things, they were barely able to restrain the crowds from immolating to them.

And whoever loves me shall be loved by my Father. And I will love him, and I will manifest myself to him.” - 22 Judas, not the Iscariot, said to him: “Lord, how does it happen that you will manifest yourself to us and not to the world?” - 23 Jesus responded and said to him: “If anyone loves me, he shall keep my word. And my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and we will make our dwelling place with him. - 24 Whoever does not love me, does not keep not my words. And the word that you have heard is not of me, but it is of the Father who sent me. - 25 These things I have spoken to you, while abiding with you. - 26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will suggest to you everything whatsoever that I have said to you.

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?
