First Reading Ephesians 1:11-14

  • 11In him, we too are called to our portion, having been predestined in accord with the plan of the One who accomplishes all things by the counsel of his will.

  • 12So may we be, to the praise of his glory, we who have hoped beforehand in Christ.

  • 13In him, you also, after you heard and believed the Word of truth, which is the Gospel of your salvation, were sealed with the Holy Spirit of the Promise.

  • 14He is the pledge of our inheritance, unto the acquisition of redemption, to the praise of his glory.

Gospel Luke 12:1-7

  • 1Then, as great crowds were standing so close that they were stepping on one another, he began to say to his disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

  • 2For there is nothing covered, which will not be revealed, nor anything hidden, which will not be known.

  • 3For the things that you have spoken in darkness will be declared in the light. And what you have said in the ear in bedrooms will be proclaimed from the housetops.

  • 4So I say to you, my friends: Do not be fearful of those who kill the body, and afterwards have no more that they can do.

  • 5But I will reveal to you whom you should fear. Fear him who, after he will have killed, has the power to cast into Hell. So I say to you: Fear him.

  • 6Are not five sparrows sold for two small coins? And yet not one of these is forgotten in the sight of God.

  • 7But even the very hairs of your head have all been numbered. Therefore, do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.

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.
