First Reading: Haggai 2: 1-9
Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 43: 1, 2, 3, 4
Holy Gospel: Luke 9: 18-22
Holy Gospel:
18 One day when Jesus was praying alone, not far from his disciples, he asked them, “What do people say about me?” 19 And they answered, “Some say that you are John the Baptist; others say that you are Elijah, and still others that you are one of the former prophets risen from the dead.” Again Jesus asked them, 20 “Who then do you say I am?” Peter answered, “The Messiah of God.” 21 Then Jesus spoke to them, giving them strict orders not to tell this to anyone.
22 And he added, “The Son of Man must suffer many things. He will be rejected by the elders and chief priests and teachers of the Law, and put to death. Then after three days he will be raised to life.”
First Reading:
1 On the twenty-first day of the seventh month of the second year of the reign of Darius, this word of Yahweh was sent through the prophet Haggai, 2 “Give this message to Zerubbabel, the governor of Judah, and to Joshua, the high priest, and to all the people:
3 Is there left among you one of those who saw this house long ago in the time of its glory? What do they think of what they see now? Is it not a very little thing? 4 But I say to you, Zerubbabel, Joshua and my people: do not be discouraged. Begin to work, for I am with you, says Yahweh. 5 Do not be afraid, for my spirit is in your midst.
6 Thus says Yahweh of hosts, within a short while I will shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the continents. 7 Then I will shake all the nations and bring in the treasures of the whole world. I will fill this House with glory, says Yahweh. 8 I will have as much silver and gold as I wish. 9 The renown of this Temple will be greater than before, and in this place I will give peace,” says Yahweh of hosts.
Responsorial Psalm:
Hope in God; I will praise him, my savior and my God.
1 Make justice, O God, and defend my cause
against an ungodly people;
deliver me from the wicked and deceitful.
2 You are my God, my stronghold,
why have you cast me out?
Why should I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy?
3 Send forth your light and your truth;
let them be my guide,
let them take me to your holy mountain,
to the place where you reside.
4 Then will I go to the altar of God,
to God, my gladness and delight.
I will praise you with the lyre and harp,
O God, my God.
