THIRTIETH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
First Reading:Â Sirach 35:Â 12-14, 16-18
12Â And look not upon an unjust sacrifice, for the Lord is judge, and there is not with him respect of person.
13 The Lord will not accept any person against a poor man, and he will hear the prayer of him that is wronged.
14Â He will not despise the prayers of the fatherless; nor the widow, when she poureth out her complaint.
16Â For from the cheek they go up even to heaven, and the Lord that heareth will not be delighted with them.
17Â He that adoreth God with joy, shall be accepted, and his prayer shall approach even to the clouds.
18Â The prayer of him that humbleth himself, shall pierce the clouds: and till it come nigh he will not be comforted: and he will not depart till the most High behold.
Responsorial Psalm:Â Psalms 34:Â 2-3, 17-18, 19, 23
R. (7a) The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
2Â I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall be always in my mouth.
3Â In the Lord shall my soul be praised: let the meek hear and rejoice.
R. The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
17Â But the countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil things: to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
18Â The just cried, and the Lord heard them: and delivered them out of all their troubles.
R. The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
19Â The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: and he will save the humble of spirit.
23Â The Lord will redeem the souls of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall offend.
R. The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
Second Reading:Â Second Timothy 4:Â 6-8, 16-18
6Â For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand.
7Â I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.
8Â As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming. Make haste to come to me quickly.
16Â At my first answer no man stood with me, but all forsook me: may it not be laid to their charge.
17Â But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that by me the preaching may be accomplished, and that all the Gentiles may hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
18Â The Lord hath delivered me from every evil work: and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Alleluia:Â Second Corinthians 5:Â 19
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
19Â God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, and entrusting to us the message of salvation.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel:Â Luke 18:Â 9-14
9Â And to some who trusted in themselves as just, and despised others, he spoke also this parable:
10Â Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11Â The Pharisee standing, prayed thus with himself: O God, I give thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, as also is this publican.
12Â I fast twice in a week: I give tithes of all that I possess.
13Â And the publican, standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes towards heaven; but struck his breast, saying: O God, be merciful to me a sinner.
14Â I say to you, this man went down into his house justified rather than the other: because every one that exalteth himself, shall be humbled: and he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted.
