First Reading (Ezekiel 33: 7–9)
A reading from the book of the prophet Ezekiel.
Therefore, the Lord states: "For your part, son of man, I have set you as a watchman for Israel, and when you hear my word, you must give them my warning. When I say to the wicked: 'Wicked man, you shall die for sure,' if you do not warn the wicked man to turn him from his ways, he will die because of his sin, but I will also call you to account for his blood. If you warn the wicked man to turn from his ways and he does not do so, he will die for his sin, but you yourself will be saved."
Second Reading (Romans 13: 8–10)
A reading from the letter of Saint Paul to the Romans.
Brothers and sisters: Do not be in debt to anyone. Let this be the only debt of one to another: Love. The one who loves his or her neighbor fulfilled the Law. For the commandments: Do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not covet and whatever else are summarized in this one: You will love your neighbor as yourself. Love cannot do the neighbor any harm; so love fulfills the whole Law.
Gospel (Matthew 18: 15–20)
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew.
Jesus stated this to his disciples, "If your brother or sister has sinned against you, go and point out the fault when the two of you are in private, and if he listens to you, you have won your brother. If you are not listen to, take with you one or two others so that the case may be decided by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he still refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembled Church. But if he does not listen to the Church, then regard such a one as a pagan or a publican. I say to you: whatever you bind on earth, heaven will keep bound; and whatever you unbind on earth, heaven will keep unbound. In like manner, I say to you: if on earth two of you are united in asking for anything, it will be granted to you by my heavenly Father. For where two or three are gathered in my Name, I am there among them."

Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 95) (Verses 1–2 and 6–9)
ReplyDeleteThe response is: If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
Come, let us sing to the Lord, let us make a joyful sound to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him giving thanks, with music and songs of praise.
Come and worship let us bow down, kneel before the Lord, our Maker. He is our God, and we are his people; the flock he leads and pastures.
Would that today you heard his voice! Do not be stubborn, as at Meribah, in the desert, on that day at Massah, when your ancestors challenged me, and they put me to the test.
Primera Lectura (Ezequiel 33: 7–9)
ReplyDeleteUna lectura del libro del profeta Ezequiel.
A ti, hijo de hombre, te he puesto como centinela para la casa de Israel, apenas oigas que una palabra sale de mi boca, tendrás que advertírselo de mi parte. Cuando diga al malo: Malo, ¿vas a morir? Si no le hablas, si no haces que se preocupe por su mala conducta, el malo morirá debido a su pecado, pero a ti te pediré cuenta de su sangre. Al contrario, si le has llamado la atención al malo por su mala conducta y no se aparta de ella, si no deja su mala conducta, morirá debido a su pecado y tú nada tendrás que temer.
Salmo responsorial (Salmo 95) (Versículos 1–2 y 6–9)
La respuesta es: Si hoy oyes su voz, no endurezcas tu corazón.
• ¡Vengan, cantemos con júbilo al Señor, aclamemos a la Roca que nos salva! ¡Lleguemos hasta él dándole gracias, aclamemos con música al Señor!
• ¡Entren, inclinémonos para adorarlo! ¡Doblemos la rodilla ante el Señor que nos creó! Porque él es nuestro Dios, y nosotros, el pueblo que él apacienta, las ovejas conducidas por su mano.
• Ojalá hoy escuchen la voz del Señor: No endurezcan su corazón como en Meribá, como en el día de Masá, en el desierto, cuando sus padres me tentaron y provocaron, aunque habían visto mis obras.
Segunda Lectura (Romanos 13: 8–10)
Una lectura de la carta de San Pablo a los romanos.
Que la única deuda con los demás sea la del amor mutuo: el que ama al prójimo ya cumplió toda la Ley. Porque los mandamientos: No cometerás adulterio, no matarás, no robarás, no codiciarás, y cualquier otro, se resumen en este: Amarás a tu prójimo como a ti mismo. El amor no hace más al prójimo. Por lo tanto, el amor es la plenitud de la Ley.
Evangelio (Mateo 18: 15–20)
Una lectura del Evangelio Santo según el San Mateo.
Jesús les dijo a sus discípulos, “Si tu hermano ha pecado, vete a hablar con él a solas para reprochárselo. Si te escucha, has ganado a tu hermano. Si no te escucha, toma contigo una o dos personas más, de modo que el caso se decida por la palabra de dos o tres testigos. Si se niega a escucharlos, informa a la asamblea. Si tampoco escucha a la iglesia, considéralo como un pagano o un publicano. Yo les digo: ‘Todo lo que aten en la tierra, lo mantendrá atado el Cielo, y todo lo que desaten en la tierra, lo mantendrá desatado el Cielo. Asimismo yo les digo: si en la tierra dos de ustedes se ponen de acuerdo para pedir alguna cosa, mi Padre Celestial se lo concederá. Pues donde están dos o tres reunidos en mi Nombre, allí estoy yo, en medio de ellos.’”
