First Reading Galatians 3:1-5

  • 1O senseless Galatians, who has so fascinated you that you would not obey the truth, even though Jesus Christ has been presented before your eyes, crucified among you?

  • 2I wish to know only this from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

  • 3Are you so foolish that, though you began with the Spirit, you would now end with the flesh?

  • 4Have you been suffering so much without a reason? If so, then it is in vain.

  • 5Therefore, does he who distributes the Spirit to you, and who works miracles among you, act by the works of the law, or by the hearing of the faith?

Gospel Luke 11:5-13

  • 5And he said to them: “Which of you will have a friend and will go to him in the middle of the night, and will say to him: ‘Friend, lend me three loaves,

  • 6because a friend of mine has arrived from a journey to me, and I do not have anything to set before him.’

  • 7And from within, he would answer by saying: ‘Do not disturb me. The door is closed now, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up and give it to you.’

  • 8Yet if he will persevere in knocking, I tell you that, even though he would not get up and give it to him because he is a friend, yet due to his continued insistence, he will get up and give him whatever he needs.

  • 9And so I say to you: Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.

  • 10For everyone who asks, receives. And whoever seeks, finds. And whoever knocks, it shall be opened to him.

  • 11So then, who among you, if he asks his father for bread, he would give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he would give him a serpent, instead of a fish?

  • 12Or if he will ask for an egg, he would offer to him a scorpion?

  • 13Therefore, if you, being evil, know how to give good things to your sons, how much more will your Father give, from heaven, a spirit of goodness to those who ask him?”

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.
