Read in the CPDV: Acts 16
47Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net cast into the sea, which gathers together all kinds of fish.
48When it has been filled, drawing it out and sitting beside the shore, they selected the good into vessels, but the bad they threw away.
49So shall it be at the consummation of the age. The Angels shall go forth and separate the bad from the midst of the just.
50And they shall cast them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
51Have you understood all these things?” They say to him, “Yes.”
52He said to them, “Therefore, every scribe well-taught about the kingdom of heaven, is like a man, the father of a family, who offers from his storehouse both the new and the old.”
53And it happened that, when Jesus had completed these parables, he went away from there.

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.
