Daily Readings - February 25, 2012 - Saturday
First Reading: Isaiah 58: 9-14
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 86: 1-2, 3-4, 5-6
Holy Gospel: Luke 5: 27-32
Holy Gospel:
27 After this Jesus went out, and as he noticed a tax collector named Levi sitting in the tax office, he said to him, “Follow me.” 28 So Levi, leaving everything, got up and followed Jesus.
29 Levi gave a great feast for Jesus, and many tax collectors came to his house and took their place at table with the other people. 30 Then the Pharisees and their fellow teachers complained to Jesus’ disciples, “How is it that you eat and drink with tax collectors and other sinners?” 31 But Jesus spoke up, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor, but sick people do. 32 I have come to call to repentance; I call sinners, not the righteous.”
First Reading:
9 Then you will call and Yahweh will answer,
you will cry and he will say, I am here.
If you remove from your midst the yoke,
the clenched fist and the wicked word,
10 if you share your food with the hungry
and give relief to the oppressed,
then your light will rise in the dark,
your night will be like noon.
11 Yahweh will guide you always
and give you relief in desert places.
He will strengthen your bones;
he will make you as a watered garden,
like a spring of water
whose waters never fail.
12 Your ancient ruins will be rebuilt,
the age old foundations will be raised.
You will be called the Breachmender,
and the Restorer of ruined houses.
13 If you stop profaning the sabbath
and doing as you please on the holy day,
if you call the sabbath a day of delight
and keep sacred Yahweh’s holy day,
if you honor it by not going your own way,
not doing as you please
and not speaking with malice,
14 then you will find happiness in Yahweh,
over the heights you will ride triumphantly,
and feast joyfully on the inheritance of your father Jacob you.
The mouth of Yahweh has spoken.
Responsorial Psalm:
Listen, O Lord, and answer me, for I am afflicted and needy.
2 Preserve my life for I am God-fearing; save your servant who trusts in you.
3 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I cry to you all day.
4 Bring joy to the soul of your servant, for you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
5 You are good and forgiving, O Lord, caring for those who call on you.
6 Listen, O Lord, to my prayer, hear the voice of my pleading.
