Holy Gospel
1 Jesus told them a parable to show them that they should pray continually and not lose heart. 2 He said, “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor people. 3 In the same town was a widow who kept coming to him, saying: ‘Defend my rights against my op¬ponent.’ 4 For a time he refused, but finally he thought: ‘Even though I neither fear God nor care about people, 5 this widow bothers me so much I will see that she gets justice; then she will stop coming and wearing me out.”
6 And Jesus explained, “Listen to what the evil judge says. 7 Will God not do justice for his chosen ones who cry to him day and night even if he delays in answering them? 8 I tell you, he will speedily do them justice. Yet, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”
First Reading
14 While all was in quiet silence and the night was in the middle of its course, 15 your almighty Word leapt down from the Royal Throne – a stern warrior to a doomed world. 16 Carrying your fearful command like a sharpened sword and stretching from heaven to earth, he filled the universe with death.
6 All creation in its different forms was fashioned anew at your command, in order to pro¬tect your people. 7 The cloud covered the camp with its shadow, dry land emerged where water had been. A safe passage was opened through the Red Sea, the tempestuous flood became a green plain 8 where the whole nation of those protected by your hand passed across, witnessing your astounding deeds.
9 They were like horses led to pasture, or like frolicking lambs, praising you, their Lord, who had delivered them.
Responsorial Psalm:
2 Sing to him, sing his praise, proclaim all his wondrous deeds.
3 Glory in his holy name; let those who seek the Lord rejoice.
36 then he smote all the firstborn, the first fruits of their manhood.
37 He led Israel out of the alien land, laden with silver and gold, and none were left behind.
42 For he remembered his promise to Abraham, his servant.
43 So he led forth his people with joy, his chosen ones with singing.
