  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  1 Peter 4:12-19

  12Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which comes upon you to prove you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13But rejoice in so far as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. 14If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. 15But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a wrongdoer, or a mischief-maker;16yet if one suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but under that name let him glorify God. 17For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God;and if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18And "If the righteous man is scarcely saved, where will the impious and sinner appear?" 19Therefore let those who suffer according to God's will do right and entrust their souls to a faithful Creator.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 126:1-6

  1When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream. 2Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy;then they said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them." 3The LORD has done great things for us;we are glad. 4Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like the watercourses in the Negeb! 5May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy! 6He that goes forth weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.

  SECOND LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Matthew 7:1-5

  1"Judge not, that you be not judged. 2For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. 3Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4Or how can you say to your brother, `Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye? 5You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Matthew 10:34-39

  34"Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth;I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;36and a man's foes will be those of his own household. 37He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me;and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;38and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  2 kgs 17:5-8, 13-15a, 18

  Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, occupied the whole land
  and attacked Samaria, which he besieged for three years.
  In the ninth year of Hoshea, king of Israel
  the king of Assyria took Samaria,
  and deported the children of Israel to Assyria,
  setting them in Halah, at the Habor, a river of Gozan,
  and the cities of the Medes.
  
  This came about because the children of Israel sinned against the LORD,
  their God, who had brought them up from the land of Egypt,
  from under the domination of Pharaoh, king of Egypt,
  and because they venerated other gods.
  They followed the rites of the nations
  whom the LORD had cleared out of the way of the children of Israel
  and the kings of Israel whom they set up.
  
  And though the LORD warned Israel and Judah
  by every prophet and seer,
  “Give up your evil ways and keep my commandments and statutes,
  in accordance with the entire law which I enjoined on your fathers
  and which I sent you by my servants the prophets,”
  they did not listen, but were as stiff-necked as their fathers,
  who had not believed in the LORD, their God.
  They rejected his statutes,
  the covenant which he had made with their fathers,
  and the warnings which he had given them, till,
  in his great anger against Israel,
  the LORD put them away out of his sight.
  Only the tribe of Judah was left.
  

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  ps 60:3, 4-5, 12-13

  R. (7b) Help us with your right hand, O Lord, and answer us.
  O God, you have rejected us and broken our defenses;
  you have been angry;rally us!
  R. Help us with your right hand, O Lord, and answer us.
  You have rocked the country and split it open;
  repair the cracks in it, for it is tottering.
  You have made your people feel hardships;
  you have given us stupefying wine.
  R. Help us with your right hand, O Lord, and answer us.
  Have not you, O God, rejected us,
  so that you go not forth, O God, with our armies?
  Give us aid against the foe,
  for worthless is the help of men.
  R. Help us with your right hand, O Lord, and answer us.
  

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  mt 7:1-5

  Jesus said to his disciples:
  “Stop judging, that you may not be judged.
  For as you judge, so will you be judged,
  and the measure with which you measure will be measured out to you.
  Why do you notice the splinter in your brother’s eye,
  but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own eye?
  How can you say to your brother,
  ‘Let me remove that splinter from your eye,’
  while the wooden beam is in your eye?
  You hypocrite, remove the wooden beam from your eye first;
  then you will see clearly
  to remove the splinter from your brother’s eye.”
