First Reading
Wisdom 11:22--12:2
11
22Because the whole world before thee is like a speck that tips the scales, and like a drop of morning dew that falls upon the ground.
23But thou art merciful to all, for thou canst do all things, and thou dost overlook men's sins, that they may repent.
24For thou lovest all things that exist, and hast loathing for none of the things which thou hast made, for thou wouldst not have made anything if thou hadst hated it.
25How would anything have endured if thou hadst not willed it? Or how would anything not called forth by thee have been preserved?
26Thou sparest all things, for they are thine, O Lord who lovest the living.
12
1For thy immortal spirit is in all things.
2Therefore thou dost correct little by little those who trespass, and dost remind and warn them of the things wherein they sin, that they may be freed from wickedness and put their trust in thee, O Lord.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 145:1-2, 8-11, 13-14
1I will extol thee, my God and King, and bless thy name for ever and ever.
2Every day I will bless thee, and praise thy name for ever and ever.
8The LORD is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9The LORD is good to all, and his compassion is over all that he has made.
10All thy works shall give thanks to thee, O LORD, and all thy saints shall bless thee!
11They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and tell of thy power,
13Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endures throughout all generations. The LORD is faithful in all his words, and gracious in all his deeds.
14The LORD upholds all who are falling, and raises up all who are bowed down.
Second Reading
2 Thessalonians 1:11--2:2
1
11To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his call, and may fulfil every good resolve and work of faith by his power,
12so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2
1Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our assembling to meet him, we beg you, brethren,
2not to be quickly shaken in mind or excited, either by spirit or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.
Gospel
Luke 19:1-10
1He entered Jericho and was passing through.
2And there was a man named Zacchae'us; he was a chief tax collector, and rich.
3And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not, on account of the crowd, because he was small of stature.
4So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way.
5And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, "Zacchae'us, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today."
6So he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully.
7And when they saw it they all murmured, "He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner."
8And Zacchae'us stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold."
9And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.
10For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost."
