First Reading 1 Corinthians 6:1-11

1How is it that anyone of you, having a dispute against another, would dare to be judged before the iniquitous, and not before the saints?
2Or do you not know that the saints from this age shall judge it? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you unworthy, then, to judge even the smallest matters?
3Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more the things of this age?
4Therefore, if you have matters to judge concerning this age, why not appoint those who are most contemptible in the Church to judge these things!
5But I am speaking so as to shame you. Is there no one among you wise enough, so that he might be able to judge between his brothers?
6Instead, brother contends against brother in court, and this before the unfaithful!
7Now there is certainly an offense among you, beyond everything else, when you have court cases against one another. Should you not accept injury instead? Should you not endure being cheated instead?
8But you are doing the injuring and the cheating, and this toward brothers!
9Do you not know that the iniquitous will not possess the kingdom of God? Do not choose to wander astray. For neither fornicators, nor servants of idolatry, nor adulterers,
10nor the effeminate, nor males who sleep with males, nor thieves, nor the avaricious, nor the inebriated, nor slanderers, nor the rapacious shall possess the kingdom of God.
11And some of you were like this. But you have been absolved, but you have been sanctified, but you have been justified: all in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

Gospel Luke 6:12-19

12And it happened that, in those days, he went out to a mountain to pray. And he was in the prayer of God throughout the night.
13And when daylight had arrived, he called his disciples. And he chose twelve out of them (whom he also named Apostles):
14Simon, whom he surnamed Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
15Matthew and Thomas, James of Alphaeus, and Simon who is called the Zealot,
16and Jude of James, and Judas Iscariot, who was a traitor.
17And descending with them, he stood in a level place with a multitude of his disciples, and a copious multitude of people from all of Judea and Jerusalem and the seacoast, and Tyre and Sidon,
18who had come so that they might listen to him and be healed of their diseases. And those who were troubled by unclean spirits were cured.
19And the entire crowd was trying to touch him, because power went out from him and healed all.

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.
