First Reading
Ezekiel 47:1-2, 8-9, 12
1Then he brought me back to the door of the temple; and behold, water was issuing from below the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east); and the water was flowing down from below the south end of the threshold of the temple, south of the altar.
2Then he brought me out by way of the north gate, and led me round on the outside to the outer gate, that faces toward the east; and the water was coming out on the south side.
8And he said to me, "This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah; and when it enters the stagnant waters of the sea, the water will become fresh.
9And wherever the river goes every living creature which swarms will live, and there will be very many fish; for this water goes there, that the waters of the sea may become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes.
12And on the banks, on both sides of the river, there will grow all kinds of trees for food. Their leaves will not wither nor their fruit fail, but they will bear fresh fruit every month, because the water for them flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for healing."
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 46:2-3, 5-6, 8-9
1God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2Therefore we will not fear though the earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea;
4There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High.
5God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God will help her right early.
7The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. [Selah]
8Come, behold the works of the LORD, how he has wrought desolations in the earth.
Second Reading
1 Corinthians 3:9-11, 16-17
9For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building.
10According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and another man is building upon it. Let each man take care how he builds upon it.
11For no other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
16Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?
17If any one destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and that temple you are.
Gospel
John 2:13-22
13The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers at their business.
15And making a whip of cords, he drove them all, with the sheep and oxen, out of the temple; and he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.
16And he told those who sold the pigeons, "Take these things away; you shall not make my Father's house a house of trade."
17His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for thy house will consume me."
18The Jews then said to him, "What sign have you to show us for doing this?"
19Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
20The Jews then said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?"
21But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
