First Reading (Deuteronomy 30: 10–14)
A reading from the book of Deuteronomy.
Moses stated this to the people: "You shall turn to the Lord, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul, and observe his commandments and norms, in a word, everything written in his book of the Law. These commandments that I give you today are neither too high nor too far for you. They are not in heaven that you should say: 'Who will go up to heaven to get these commandments, so that we may hear them and put them into practice?' Neither are they at the other side of the sea for you to say: 'Who will cross to the other side and bring them to us, so that we may hear them and put them into practice?' On the contrary, my word is very near you; it is already in your mouth and in your heart, so that you can put it into practice."
Second Reading (Colossians 1: 15–20)
A reading from the letter of Saint Paul to the Colossians.
He is the image of the unseen God, and for all creation he is the first-born, for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible: thrones, rulers, authorities, powers... All was made through him and for him. He is before all and all things hold together in him. And he is the head of the body, that is the Church, for he is the first, the first raised from the dead that he may be the first in everything, for God was pleased to let fullness dwell in him. Through him God willed to reconcile all things to himself, and through him, through his blood shed on the cross. God establishes peace, on earth as in heaven.
Gospel (Luke 10: 25–37)
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke.
Then a teacher of the Law came and began putting Jesus to the test. And he asked, "Master, what shall I do to obtain eternal life?" Jesus replied, "What is written in the Scripture? How do you understand it?" The man answered, "It is written: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength and with all your mind. And you shall love your neighbor as yourself." Jesus replied, "That is a good answer. If you do this, you shall live." The man wanted to keep appearances, so he replied, "But, who is my neighbor?" Jesus then stated this, "There was a man going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him, beat him and went off leaving him half-dead. It happened that a priest was going along that road and saw the man, but passed by on the other side. Likewise a Levite saw the man and passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, too, was going that way, and when he came upon the man, he was moved with compassion. He went over to him and treated his wounds with oil and wine and wrapped them with bandages. Then he put him on his own mount and brought him to an inn where he took care of him. The next day he had to set off, but he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and told him: 'Take care of him and whatever you spend on him, I will repay when I come back.'" Jesus then asked, "Which of these three, do you think, made himself neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?" The teacher of the Law answered, "The one who had mercy on him." And Jesus replied, "Go then, and do the same."

Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 69) (Verses 14, 17, 30–31, 33–34, and 36–37)
ReplyDeleteThe response is: Turn to the Lord in your need, and you will live.
I pray to you, O Lord, at a time most favorable to you. In your great love, O God, answer me with your unfailing help. In your mercy, O Lord, give me a good answer; in your great compassion, turn to me.
I myself am humbled and wounded; your salvation, O God, will lift me up. I will praise the name of God in song; I will glorify him with thanksgiving.
Let the lowly witness this and be glad. You who seek God, may your hearts be revived. For the lord hears the needy and does not despise those in captivity.
For God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah. His people shall dwell in the land and possess it; the children of his servants shall inherit it, and those who love his name will dwell in it.
The responsorial psalm is taken from the Catholic Pastoral Edition Bible.

ReplyDeletePrimera lectura (Deuteronomio 30: 10–14)
ReplyDeleteUna lectura del libro de Deuteronomio.
Porque tú habrás vuelto a Yahvé, tu Dios, con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma, y guardarás sus mandamientos y sus normas, en una palabra, lo que está escrito en el libro de esta Ley. Este mandamiento que yo te doy no es superior a tus fuerzas ni está fuera de tu alcance. No está en el cielo, para que puedas decir: “¿Quién subirá al cielo y nos lo traerá? Entonces escucharemos y lo pondremos en práctica.” Tampoco está al otro lado del mar, para que tengas que decir: “¿Quién pasará hasta el otro lado y nos lo traerá? Entonces escucharemos y lo pondremos en práctica.” Todo lo contrario, mi palabra ha llegado bien cerca de ti; ya la tienes en la boca y la sabes de memoria, y sólo hace falta ponerla en práctica.
Segunda lectura (Colosenses 1: 15–20)
Una lectura de la carta de San Pablo a los colosenses.
Él es la Imagen del Dios invisible, el Primogénito de toda la creación, porque en él fueron creadas todas las cosas, tanto en el cielo como en la tierra los seres visibles y los invisibles, Tronos, Dominaciones, Principados y Potestades: todo fue creado por medio de él y para él. Él existe antes que todas las cosas y todo subsiste en él. Él es también la Cabeza del Cuerpo, es decir, de la Iglesia. Él es el Principio, el Primero que resucitó de entre los muertos, a fin de que él tuviera la primacía en todo, porque Dios quiso que en él residiera toda la Plenitud. Por él quiso reconciliar consigo todo lo que existe en la tierra y en el cielo, restableciendo la paz por la sangre de su cruz.
Evangelio (Lucas 10: 25–37)
Una lectura del Evangelio Santo según el San Lucas.
Y entonces, un doctor de la Ley se levantó y le preguntó para ponerlo a prueba: “Maestro, ¿qué tengo que hacer para heredar la Vida eterna?” Jesús le preguntó a su vez: “¿Qué está escrito en la Ley? ¿Qué lees en ella?” Él le respondió: “Amarás al Señor, tu Dios, con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma, con todas tus fuerzas y con todo tu espíritu, y a tu prójimo como a ti mismo.” “Has respondido exactamente, le dijo Jesús; obra así y alcanzarás la vida.” Pero el doctor de la Ley, para justificar su intervención, le hizo esta pregunta: “¿Y quién es mi prójimo?” Jesús volvió a tomar la palabra y le respondió: “Un hombre bajaba de Jerusalén a Jericó y cayó en manos de unos ladrones, que lo despojaron de todo, lo hirieron y se fueron, dejándolo medio muerto. Casualmente bajaba por el mismo camino un sacerdote: lo vio y siguió de largo. También pasó por allí un levita: lo vio y siguió su camino. Pero un samaritano que viajaba por allí, al pasar junto a él, lo vio y se conmovió. Entonces se acercó y vendó sus heridas, cubriéndolas con aceite y vino; después lo puso sobre su propia montura, lo condujo a un albergue y se encargó de cuidarlo. Al día siguiente, sacó dos denarios y se los dio al dueño del albergue, diciéndole: ‘Cuídalo, y lo que gastes de más, te lo pagaré al volver’ ¿Cuál de los tres te parece que se portó como prójimo del hombre asaltado por los ladrones?” “El que tuvo compasión de él”, le respondió el doctor. Y Jesús le dijo: “Ve, y procede tú de la misma manera.”
Salmo responsorial (Salmo 69) (Versículos 14, 17, 30–31, 33–34, y 36–37) (1ª opción)
DeleteLa respuesta es: Vuélvete al Señor por tu indigencia, y vivirás.
• Pero mi oración sube hasta ti, Señor, en el momento favorable: respóndeme, Dios mío, por tu gran amor, sálvame, por tu fidelidad. Respóndeme, Señor, por tu bondad y tu amor, por tu gran compasión vuélvete a mí.
• Yo soy un pobre desdichado, Dios mío, que tu ayuda me proteja: así alabaré con cantos el nombre de Dios, y proclamaré su grandeza dando gracias.
• Que lo vean los humildes y se alegren, que vivan los que buscan a Dios: porque el Señor escucha a los pobres y no desprecia a sus cautivos.
• Porque Dios salvará a Sion y volverá a edificar las ciudades de Judá: el linaje de sus servidores la tendrá como herencia, y los que aman su nombre morarán en ella.
Salmo responsorial (Salmo 19) (Versículos 8–11) (2ª opción)
La respuesta es: Tus palabras, Señor, son espíritu y vida.
• La ley del Señor es perfecta, reconforta el alma; el testimonio del Señor es verdadero, da sabiduría al simple.
• Los preceptos del Señor son rectos, alegran el corazón; los mandamientos del Señor son claros, iluminan los ojos.
• La palabra del Señor es pura, permanece para siempre; los juicios del Señor son la verdad, enteramente justos.
• Son más atrayentes que el oro, que el oro más fino; más dulces que la miel, más que el jugo del panal.
Unang pagbabasa (Deuteronomio 30: 10–14)
ReplyDeleteAng pagbabasa sa aklat ni Deuteronomio.
Ngunit kailangang makinig kayo sa kanya at buong puso't kaluluwang sumunod sa kanyang mga utos. “Ang kautusang ibinibigay ko sa inyo ngayon ay hindi naman napakahirap sundin at unawain. Wala ito sa langit, kaya hindi na ninyo dapat itanong, ‘Sino ang aakyat sa langit para sa atin upang kunin ang kautusan upang marinig natin ito at maisagawa?’ Wala rin ito sa ibayong-dagat kaya hindi ninyo dapat itanong, ‘Sino ang tatawid sa dagat para sa atin upang kunin ang kautusan upang marinig natin ito at maisagawa?’ Napakalapit ng kautusan sa inyo, nasa inyong mga labi at nasa inyong mga puso. Kailangan lang ninyo itong tuparin.
Pangalawang pagbabasa (Colosas 1: 15–20)
Ang pagbabasa sa sulat ni Pablo sa mga taga-Colosas.
Si Cristo ang larawan ng Diyos na di-nakikita. Siya ang panganay na anak at pangunahin sa lahat ng mga nilikha. Sapagkat sa pamamagitan niya ay nilikha ang lahat ng nasa langit at nasa lupa, nakikita man o hindi, pati ang mga espirituwal na kapangyarihan, paghahari, pamamahala, at pamumuno. Ang lahat ay nilikha ng Diyos sa pamamagitan niya at para sa kanya. Siya ang una sa lahat, at ang buong sansinukob ay nananatiling nasa kaayusan sa pamamagitan niya. Siya ang ulo ng iglesya na kanyang katawan. Siya ang pasimula, siya ang panganay na binuhay mula sa kamatayan, upang siya'y maging pangunahin sa lahat. Sapagkat minarapat ng Diyos na ang buo niyang kalikasan ay manatili sa Anak, at sa pamamagitan ng Anak, niloob ng Diyos na ang lahat ng bagay, maging sa langit o sa lupa ay ipagkasundo sa kanya. Nakamtan ang kapayapaan sa pamamagitan ng dugo ng kanyang Anak na inialay sa krus.
Ebanghelyo (Lucas 10: 25–37)
Ang magandang balita ayon kay San Lucas.
Isang dalubhasa sa Kautusan ang lumapit kay Jesus upang siya'y subukin. “Guro, ano ang dapat kong gawin upang magkamit ng buhay na walang hanggan?” tanong niya. Sumagot si Jesus, “Ano ba ang nakasulat sa Kautusan? Ano ba ang nababasa mo roon?” Sumagot ang lalaki, “‘Ibigin mo ang Panginoon mong Diyos nang buong puso mo, buong kaluluwa mo, buong lakas mo, at buong pag-iisip mo;’ at ‘Ibigin mo ang iyong kapwa gaya ng pag-ibig mo sa iyong sarili.’” Sabi ni Jesus, “Tama ang sagot mo. Gawin mo iyan at magkakamit ka ng buhay na walang hanggan.” Upang huwag siyang lumabas na kahiya-hiya, nagtanong pa ang lalaki, “Sino naman ang aking kapwa?” Sumagot si Jesus, “May isang taong naglalakbay mula sa Jerusalem papuntang Jerico. Hinarang siya ng mga tulisan, hinubaran, binugbog, at iniwang halos patay na. Nagkataong dumaan doon ang isang paring Judio. Nang makita ang taong nakahandusay, lumihis siya at nagpatuloy sa kanyang paglakad. Dumaan din ang isang Levita, ngunit nang makita niya ang taong binugbog, lumihis din ito at nagpatuloy sa kanyang paglakad. Ngunit may isang Samaritanong naglalakbay na napadaan doon. Nang makita niya ang biktima, siya'y naawa. Nilapitan niya ito, binuhusan ng langis at alak ang mga sugat at binendahan. Pagkatapos, isinakay niya ang lalaki sa kanyang asno at dinala ito sa bahay-panuluyan upang maalagaan siya doon. Kinabukasan, binigyan niya ng dalawang salaping pilak ang namamahala ng bahay-panuluyan, at sinabi, ‘Alagaan mo siya, at kung higit pa riyan ang iyong magagastos, babayaran kita pagbalik ko.’” At nagtanong si Jesus, “Sa palagay mo, sino kaya sa tatlo ang naging tunay na kapwa ng taong hinarang ng mga tulisan?” “Ang taong tumulong sa kanya,” tugon ng dalubhasa sa kautusan. Kaya't sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, “Kung gayon, humayo ka at ganoon din ang gawin mo.”
