A Righteous King

1 For, behold, a righteous king shall reign, and princes shall govern with judgement.

2 And a man shall hide his words, and be hidden, as from rushing water, and shall appear in Sion as a rushing river, glorious in a thirsty land.

3 And they shall no more trust in men, but they shall incline their ears to hear.

4 And the heart of the weak ones shall attend to hear, and the stammering tongues shall soon learn to speak peace.

5 And they shall no more at all tell a fool to rule, and thy servants shall no more at all say, Be silent.

6 For the fool shall speak foolish words, and his heart shall meditate vanities, and to perform lawless deeds and to speak error against the Lord, to scatter hungry souls, and he will cause the thirsty souls to be empty.

7 For the counsel of the wicked will devise iniquity, to destroy the poor with unjust words, and ruin the cause of the poor in judgement.

8 But the godly have devised wise measures, and this counsel shall stand.

The Women of Jerusalem

9 Rise up, ye rich women, and hear my voice; ye confident daughters, hearken to my words.

10 Remember for a full year in pain, yet with hope: the vintage has been cut off; it has ceased, it shall by no means come again.

11 Be amazed, be pained, ye confident ones: strip you, bare yourselves, gird your loins;

12 and beat your breasts, because of the pleasant field, and the fruit of the vine.

13 As for the land of my people, the thorn and grass shall come upon it, and joy shall be removed from every house.

14 As for the rich city, the houses are deserted; they shall abandon the wealth of the city, and the pleasant houses: and the villages shall be caves for ever, the joy of wild asses, shepherds' pastures;

15 until the Spirit shall come upon you from on high, and Chermel shall be desert, and Chermel shall be counted for a forest.

16 Then judgement shall abide in the wilderness, and righteousness shall dwell in Carmel.

17 And the works of righteousness shall be peace; and righteousness shall ensure rest, and the righteous shall be confident for ever.

18 And his people shall inhabit a city of peace, and dwell in it in confidence, and they shall rest with wealth.

19 And if the hail should come down, it shall not come upon you; and they that dwell in the forests shall be in confidence, as those in the plain country.

20 Blessed are they that sow by every water, where the ox and ass tread. — Isaiah 32 | Brenton Septuagint Translation (BST) The English translation of The Septuagint by Sir Lancelot Charles Lee Brenton (1851) Cross References: 1 Samuel 25:25; 2 Samuel 14:14; Psalm 12:8; Psalm 72:1-2; Psalm 91:1; Psalm 104:11; Psalm 107:35; Psalm 119:95; Psalm 123:4; Psalm 141:4; Proverbs 1:23; Proverbs 11:25; Ecclesiastes 11:1; Isaiah 2:4; Isaiah 3:16; Isaiah 4:6; Isaiah 5:5-6; Isaiah 5:10; Isaiah 5:23; Isaiah 6:11; Isaiah 7:23; Isaiah 10:18-19; Isaiah 11:10; Isaiah 12:2; Isaiah 22:2; Isaiah 23:7; Isaiah 24:10; Isaiah 28:6; Isaiah 29:18; Isaiah 29:24; Isaiah 30:23-24; Isaiah 33:5; Isaiah 33:14; Isaiah 35:4-5; Nahum 2:7; Matthew 12:34; Romans 14:17; Hebrews 12:11; James 3:18

Psalms chapter 95

1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.

5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.

7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.

10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

First Reading Genesis 17:3-9 You will be the father of a multitude of nations.

When Abram prostrated himself, God spoke to him: “My covenant with you is this: you are to become the father of a host of nations. No longer shall you be called Abram; your name shall be Abraham, for I am making you the father of a host of nations. I will render you exceedingly fertile; I will make nations of you; kings shall stem from you. I will maintain my covenant with you and your descendants after you throughout the ages as an everlasting pact, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you. I will give to you and to your descendants after you the land in which you are now staying, the whole land of Canaan, as a permanent possession; and I will be their God.”

God also said to Abraham: “On your part, you and your descendants after you must keep my covenant throughout the ages.”

The Word of the Lord

R/ Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm Psalm 105:4-5, 6-7, 8-9

R/ The Lord remembers his covenant for ever.

Look to the LORD in his strength; seek to serve him constantly. Recall the wondrous deeds that he has wrought, his portents, and the judgments he has uttered.

R/ The Lord remembers his covenant for ever.

You descendants of Abraham, his servants, sons of Jacob, his chosen ones! He, the LORD, is our God; throughout the earth his judgments prevail.

R/ The Lord remembers his covenant for ever.

He remembers forever his covenant which he made binding for a thousand generations – Which he entered into with Abraham and by his oath to Isaac.

R/ The Lord remembers his covenant for ever.

Gospel Acclamation Psalm 95:8

If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Gospel John 8:51-59 Your father, Abraham, rejoiced because he saw my day.

Jesus said to the Jews: “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever keeps my word will never see death.” So the Jews said to him, “Now we are sure that you are possessed. Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet you say, ‘Whoever keeps my word will never taste death.’ Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? Or the prophets, who died? Who do you make yourself out to be?” Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is worth nothing; but it is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’ You do not know him, but I know him. And if I should say that I do not know him, I would be like you a liar. But I do know him and I keep his word. Abraham your father rejoiced to see my day; he saw it and was glad.” So the Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old and you have seen Abraham?” Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I AM.” So they picked up stones to throw at him; but Jesus hid and went out of the temple area.

The Gospel of the Lord

R/ Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Heartstrings: Glorious Praise to the God of Heaven and Earth

Praising God from a pure heart, acknowledging Him in all of our ways, is pleasing in His sight. He is God, Creator, and Ruler of all. We have no life apart from Him. The life of every living creature, and the breath of all mankind is in His hand. (See Job 12:10)

He has no pleasure in disloyal hearts. (See 1 Samuel 15:20-23, Isaiah 29:13-14, Ezekiel 33:31-32, and John 4:21-24)

"Let us lift our hearts and hands to God in heaven." (Lamentations 3:41)

For the Lord is the great God, and the great King above all gods. In His hand are the deep places of the earth; the heights of the hills are His also. The sea is His, for He made it; and His hands formed the dry land. Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand." (Psalm 95:1-7)

Psalm 23 Lesson 06: Dwelling with the Shepherd

Psalm 23 is a short passage, but is filled with so much spiritual meaning.  As this Bible study series comes to a close, we will study the final verse of Psalm 23.

Let’s read together Psalm 23:6.

“Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”

Sheep will loyally follow their shepherd.  They receive love, care, and protection from their shepherd.  In ancient times, the shepherd will gather his flock into an enclosed area in the evening.  There the sheep can safely sleep during the night.  The shepherd will usually sleep at the doorway to guard the sheep.  That way, the shepherd can keep sheep from wandering off and also keep predators out.

Let’s read together Exodus 34:6-7; Psalm 25:7; Psalm 34:8; Isaiah 63:7; Matthew 19:17; and 1 Peter 1:3.

Goodness and mercy are part of God’s character.  Goodness is always choosing right over wrong, good over evil.  Mercy is showing compassion and kindness to an offender.  Mercy spares the offender even though they deserve to be judged.  We experience goodness and mercy when we follow Jesus, our Good Shepherd.  Although we are sinners deserving of death, He wants to lead us to righteousness and an eternal life with Him (John 3:16).

In the same way, as followers of Jesus, we need to exhibit goodness and mercy to others (1 John 3:16).  Goodness and mercy should follow us wherever we go in life.

Let’s read together Psalm 27:4; Psalm 84:1-12; 1 Corinthians 3:16; and Revelation 21:3.

Just as sheep want to be with their shepherd, we innately have a longing to be with God.  One day we will be reunited with Jesus in heaven and we can dwell with Him forever.

Let’s read together Psalm 95:1-11; John 10:1-30; Luke 15:1-7; and Revelation 3:12.

We have learned in Psalm 23 that Jesus is our Good Shepherd and we are part of His flock.  Unfortunately, sin has separated us from God.  We are like sheep lost in the wilderness.

However, Jesus is calling us back to Him.  If we listen to His voice, He promises to lead us on the path of righteousness.  Jesus promises to be with us always, as long as we allow Him to be our Shepherd. 

As we follow Jesus, our relationship with Him will deepen.  We will be able to see His goodness and mercy working in our lives.  As we go through good times and bad times in life, Jesus will never forsake us. 

Psalm 23:6 is a promise that we will one day dwell with Jesus forever.  Friend, will you listen to the Good Shepherd’s voice and follow Him all the days of your life?

Why God’s Instructions Are Important

The Psalmist made it plain why we should follow God’s instructions. In Psalm 119, He mentioned his regard for God’s decrees, regulations, and commands over eighty times. You have charged us to keep your commandments carefully. Oh, that my actions would consistently reflect your decrees! Psalms 119:4-5 This Psalm begins by describing three qualities of those living in obedience to God’s instructions. - Joyful are people of integrity, who follow God’s instructions. - Joyful are those who obey his laws and search for him with all their hearts. - They do not compromise with evil, and they walk only in his paths. Psalm 119:1-3 We usually don’t link rules and joy together, but God does. Many just put up with rules. Some even view God’s commands the same way. Let’s examine these three verses a little closer. The first one speaks about people who follow God’s instructions with integrity. That means you follow His instructions when no one but God sees you. That type of conduct generates joy. The second one also generates joy when you go beyond following the rules. In other words, you don’t just want to obey Him; you want God to fill your heart so you can be like Him. The third one knits the first two together. You consistently walk in God’s ways because of your integrity and obedience. When those qualities work together, you have no room for compromise.  Our verse for today charges us to carefully obey God’s instructions. When the Psalmist said to obey Him carefully, we shouldn’t confuse that with shyly obeying God. Oh, that my actions would consistently reflect your decrees! Then I will not be ashamed when I compare my life with your commands. Psalm 119:5-6

What Does Your Life Reflect?

What do you see when you look in the mirror? Obviously, you see a reflection of your physical being. That mirror reveals your clean or dirty face. It also shows you if your hair needs attention. The Bible and God’s instructions serve as a spiritual mirror. How do you feel when you compare your actions with the Lord’s commands? Do you see your reflection with joy or with shame? Let me throw out another question. How should we offer thanks to God? We can easily thank the Lord with our lips, which we should. The Psalmist, though, says we should show Him our thanks. As I learn your righteous regulations, I will thank you by living as I should! Psalm 119:7 After all, we had just read in these first seven verses, one would think the writer had it all together. But in the next verse, he made a commitment to God followed by a plea. I will obey your decrees. Please don’t give up on me! Psalm 119:8 As the Psalmist continually mentioned God’s decrees, commands, and instructions, he also made many commitments. We’ve already read that he will thank God, obey Him, and not be ashamed.

I Will . . .

He made quite a few more commitments throughout this entire Psalm. Let’s take a look at some of them. - I will study your commandments and reflect on your ways. Psalm 119:15 - I will pursue your commands, for you expand my understanding. Psalm 119:32. - Teach me your decrees, O Lord; I will keep them to the end. Psalm 119:33 - I will walk in freedom, for I have devoted myself to your commandments. 119:45 - Though the wicked hide along the way to kill me, I will quietly keep my mind on your laws. Psalm 119:95 - My life constantly hangs in the balance, but I will not stop obeying your instructions. Psalm 119:109 - The wicked have set their traps for me, but I will not turn from your commandments. 119:110 We all make commitments to the Lord. And I’ll be the first to admit, at times, I forget some of the ones I’ve made. With his commitments, the Psalmist also threw in some reminders. First, he reminded himself of a promise God made to him personally. In verse 65, he said, You have done many good things for me, Lord, just as you promised.” Then, he reminded God of His promises. God doesn’t need us to remind Him of anything but likes it when we remember His promises to us. Turn my eyes from worthless things, and give me life through your word. Reassure me of your promise, made to those who fear you. Remember your promise to me; it is my only hope. Psalm 119:37-38,49

Following God's Instructions comes with Promises

Here are some of His promises. The Psalmist reminded God that He promised to give him His unfailing love and mercy. Through His unfailing love, God promised salvation and comfort. The Lord also promised to restore and sustain the writer’s life. God also promised to rescue and protect the Psalmist. God extended all 15 promises written in this Psalm to each of us as well. God does all these things to make it easier for us to follow His instructions. Jesus plainly told us that His words, i.e., God’s instructions, will never pass away. Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear. Mathew 24:35

The Value of God's Instructions

Like me, you’ve probably heard that verse quoted dozens of times. But do we really understand the true value of them. The Psalmist certainly did. Your instructions are more valuable to me than millions in gold and silver. Psalm 119:72 After reading the promises and commitments in this Psalm, how does your life compare with God’s commands? Living a life devoted to God is challenging but not impossible with His help. Did the writer of this Psalm live a life fully devoted to the Lord? If David wrote it, we know he experienced challenges. Through it all, though, he kept himself reminded of God’s instructions. So, no matter what challenges you face, don’t quit. Even if you fail in some of them, don’t let discouragement get you down. Let’s look at one more pick-me-up verse before we pray. You made me; you created me. Now give me the sense to follow your commands. Psalm 119:73 Dear God, like the Psalmist, we will live a life of integrity as we obey your instructions. Thank you for the many promises you have made to us. Will you continually remind us of them?

Ezekiel's Call to a Rebellious Nation

1 And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon your feet, and I will speak unto you.

2 And the Spirit entered into me when he spoke unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spoke unto me.

3 And he said unto me, Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even unto this very day.

4 For they are impudent children and stubborn. I do send you unto them; and you shall say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD.

5 And they, whether they will hear, or whether they refuse, (for they are a rebellious house,) yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.

6 And you, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.

7 And you shall speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they refuse: for they are most rebellious.

8 But you, son of man, hear what I say unto you; Be not you rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat what I give you.

9 And when I looked, behold, a hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a scroll of a book was in it;

10 And he spread it before me; and it was written inside and outside: and there was written in it lamentations, and mourning, and woe. — Ezekiel 2 | King James 2000 Bible (KJB2K) The King James 2000 Bible, copyright © Doctor of Theology Robert A.

"Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:" Numbers 32:11, KJV "Nevertheless the LORD raised up judges, which delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them. And yet they would not hearken unto their judges, but they went a whoring after other gods, and bowed themselves unto them: they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers walked in, obeying the commandments of the LORD; but they did not so. And when the LORD raised them up judges, then the LORD was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented the LORD because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them. And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they returned, and corrupted themselves more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them; they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way." Judges 2:16-19, KJV "And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them." 1 Samuel 8:7, KJV "Neither will I make the feet of Israel move any more out of the land which I gave their fathers; only if they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them. But they hearkened not: and Manasseh seduced them to do more evil than did the nations whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel." 2 Kings 21:8-9, KJV "Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty, and the terrible God, who keepest covenant and mercy, let not all the trouble seem little before thee, that hath come upon us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all thy people, since the time of the kings of Assyria unto this day. Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly: Neither have our kings, our princes, our priests, nor our fathers, kept thy law, nor hearkened unto thy commandments and thy testimonies, wherewith thou didst testify against them. For they have not served thee in their kingdom, and in thy great goodness that thou gavest them, and in the large and fat land which thou gavest before them, neither turned they from their wicked works." Nehemiah 9:32-35, KJV "Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness: When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work. Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways: Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest." Psalm 95:8-11, KJV "They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand." Isaiah 44:18, KJV "For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge." Jeremiah 4:22, KJV "O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return." Jeremiah 5:3, KJV "Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it." Jeremiah 6:19, KJV "But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you. But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward. Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them: Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers. Therefore thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee. But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth." Jeremiah 7:23-28, KJV "But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction." Jeremiah 17:23, KJV "Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil. And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them: Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the LORD, which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the LORD." Jeremiah 29:17-19, KJV "And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them . . . And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction." Jeremiah 32:23, 33, KJV "Therefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon Judah and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them: because I have spoken unto them, but they have not heard; and I have called unto them, but they have not answered." Jeremiah 35:17, KJV "And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they hearkened not." Jeremiah 36:31, KJV "Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein, Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not, neither they, ye, nor your fathers. Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate. But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods." Jeremiah 44:2-5, KJV "Thus saith the Lord GOD; This is Jerusalem: I have set it in the midst of the nations and countries that are round about her. And she hath changed my judgments into wickedness more than the nations, and my statutes more than the countries that are round about her: for they have refused my judgments and my statutes, they have not walked in them. Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye multiplied more than the nations that are round about you, and have not walked in my statutes, neither have kept my judgments, neither have done according to the judgments of the nations that are round about you; Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the nations. And I will do in thee that which I have not done, and whereunto I will not do any more the like, because of all thine abominations." Ezekiel 5:5-9, KJV "They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD." Hosea 5:4, KJV "Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me. And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me. Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me. They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt." Hosea 7:13-16, KJV "Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings: but they did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the LORD." Zechariah 1:3-4, KJV "But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear. Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts." Zechariah 7:11-12, KJV "These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me." John 16:1-3, KJV "But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?" Romans 10:16, KJV "When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin." Hebrews 3:9-13, KJV "And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination." Jeremiah 2:7, KJV "Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come." 1 Corinthians 10:11, KJV If you would like more info regarding the origin of these KJV Bible verse lists, go to https://www.billkochman.com/VerseLists/.

[roman-catholic-mass-readings]

9th March >> Mass Readings (USA)

Saturday, Third Week of Lent 

(optional commemoration of Saint Frances of Rome, Religious)

(Liturgical Colour: Violet: B (2))

First Reading Hosea 6:1-6 What I want is love, not sacrifice.

“Come, let us return to the LORD, it is he who has rent, but he will heal us; he has struck us, but he will bind our wounds. He will revive us after two days; on the third day he will raise us up, to live in his presence. Let us know, let us strive to know the LORD; as certain as the dawn is his coming, and his judgment shines forth like the light of day! He will come to us like the rain, like spring rain that waters the earth.”

What can I do with you, Ephraim? What can I do with you, Judah? Your piety is like a morning cloud, like the dew that early passes away. For this reason I smote them through the prophets, I slew them by the words of my mouth; For it is love that I desire, not sacrifice, and knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.

The Word of the Lord

R/ Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm Psalm 51:3-4, 18-19, 20-21ab

R/ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

Have mercy on me, O God, in your goodness; in the greatness of your compassion wipe out my offense. Thoroughly wash me from my guilt and of my sin cleanse me.

R/ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

For you are not pleased with sacrifices; should I offer a burnt offering, you would not accept it. My sacrifice, O God, is a contrite spirit; a heart contrite and humbled, O God, you will not spurn.

R/ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

Be bountiful, O LORD, to Zion in your kindness by rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem; Then shall you be pleased with due sacrifices, burnt offerings and holocausts.

R/ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

Gospel Acclamation Psalm 95:8

If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Gospel Luke 18:9-14 The tax collector went home justified, not the Pharisee.

Jesus addressed this parable to those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else. “Two people went up to the temple area to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector. The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself, ‘O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity – greedy, dishonest, adulterous – or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week, and I pay tithes on my whole income.’ But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, ‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.’ I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”

The Gospel of the Lord

R/ Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
