He made the two into one, by dissolving the intermediate wall of separation, of opposition, by his flesh, - 15 emptying the law of commandments by decree, so that he might join these two, in himself, into one new man, making peace - 16 and reconciling both to God, in one body, through the cross, destroying this opposition in himself. - 17 And upon arriving, he evangelized peace to you who were far away, and peace to those who were near. - 18 For by him, we both have access, in the one Spirit, to the Father. - 19 Now, therefore, you are no longer visitors and new arrivals. Instead, you are citizens among the saints in the household of God, - 20 having been built upon the foundation of the Apostles and of the Prophets, with Jesus Christ himself as the preeminent cornerstone. - 21 In him, all that has been built is framed together, rising up into a holy temple in the Lord. - 22 In him, you also have been built together into a habitation of God in the Spirit.

Amen I say to you, that he will gird himself and have them sit down to eat, while he, continuing on, will minister to them. - 38 And if he will return in the second watch, or if in the third watch, and if he will find them to be so: then blessed are those servants. Catholic Public Domain Version Read in the CPDV: [The whole of Luke 12](https://blessbible.app/bible/luke/12/) 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. Spotted a wrong date, color or citation?
