Ye that fear the Lord, wait for his mercy: and go not aside from him, lest ye fall. Ye that fear the Lord, believe him: and your reward shall not be made void. Ye that fear the Lord, hope in him: and mercy shall come to you for your delight. Ye that fear the Lord, love him, and your hearts shall be enlightened. My children behold the generations of men: and know ye that no one hath hoped in the Lord, and hath been confounded.
Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 112:1a; V. 1-2, 3-4, 5-7a, 7b-8, 9
R. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord:V. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord:he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments.His seed shall be mighty upon earth:the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.V. Glory and wealth shall be in his house:and his justice remaineth for ever and ever.To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness:he is merciful, and compassionate and just.V. Acceptable is the man that sheweth mercy and lendeth:he shall order his words with judgment:Because he shall not be moved for ever.The just shall be in everlasting remembrance:V. (H)e shall not fear the evil hearing.His heart is ready to hope in the Lord:His heart is strengthened,he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies.V. He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor:his justice remaineth for ever and ever:his horn shall be exalted in glory.
Gospel Reading: Luke 12:32-34
Fear not, little flock, for it hath pleased your Father to give you a kingdom. Sell what you possess and give alms. Make to yourselves bags which grow not old, a treasure in heaven which faileth not: where no thief approacheth, nor moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
