  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Acts 18:9-18

  9And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent;10for I am with you, and no man shall attack you to harm you;for I have many people in this city." 11And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. 12But when Gallio was proconsul of Acha'ia, the Jews made a united attack upon Paul and brought him before the tribunal, 13saying, "This man is persuading men to worship God contrary to the law." 14But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or vicious crime, I should have reason to bear with you, O Jews;15but since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves;I refuse to be a judge of these things." 16And he drove them from the tribunal. 17And they all seized Sos'thenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no attention to this. 18After this Paul stayed many days longer, and then took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aq'uila. At Cen'chre-ae he cut his hair, for he had a vow.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 47:2-7

  1Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with loud songs of joy! 2For the LORD, the Most High, is terrible, a great king over all the earth. 3He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet. 4He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loves. [Selah] 5God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet. 6Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  John 16:20-23

  20Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice;you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy. 21When a woman is in travail she has sorrow, because her hour has come;but when she is delivered of the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child is born into the world. 22So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. 23In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father, he will give it to you in my name.

  Easter Time.

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Acts 18:23-28

  After staying in Antioch some time,
  Paul left and traveled in orderly sequence
  through the Galatian country and Phrygia,
  bringing strength to all the disciples.
  
  A Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria,
  an eloquent speaker, arrived in Ephesus.
  He was an authority on the Scriptures.
  He had been instructed in the Way of the Lord and,
  with ardent spirit, spoke and taught accurately about Jesus,
  although he knew only the baptism of John.
  He began to speak boldly in the synagogue;
  but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him,
  they took him aside
  and explained to him the Way of God more accurately.
  And when he wanted to cross to Achaia,
  the brothers encouraged him
  and wrote to the disciples there to welcome him.
  After his arrival he gave great assistance
  to those who had come to believe through grace.
  He vigorously refuted the Jews in public,
  establishing from the Scriptures that the Christ is Jesus.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Jn 16:23b-28

  Jesus said to his disciples:
  “Amen, amen, I say to you,
  whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.
  Until now you have not asked anything in my name;
  ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
  
  “I have told you this in figures of speech.
  The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures
  but I will tell you clearly about the Father.
  On that day you will ask in my name,
  and I do not tell you that I will ask the Father for you.
  For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me
  and have come to believe that I came from God.
  I came from the Father and have come into the world.
  Now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”
