Read in the CPDV: John 15
15Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
16You shall know them by their fruits. Can grapes be gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17So then, every good tree produces good fruit, and the evil tree produces evil fruit.
18A good tree is not able to produce evil fruit, and an evil tree is not able to produce good fruit.
19Every tree which does not produce good fruit shall be cut down and cast into the fire.
20Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.

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.
