Psalm - Ps 90: 3-6, 12-17

3 And, lest man be turned aside in humiliation, you have said: Be converted, O sons of men.
4 For a thousand years before your eyes are like the days of
yesterday, which have passed by, and they are like a watch of the night,
5 which was held for nothing: so their years shall be.
6 In the morning, he may pass away like grass; in the morning, he
may flower and pass away. In the evening, he will fall, and harden, and
become dry.12 be numbered? So make known your right hand, along with men learned in heart, in wisdom.
13 Return, O Lord, how long?

Second Reading - Philemon 9-10, 12-17

9 but I beg you instead, for the sake of charity,
since you are so much like Paul: an old man and now also a prisoner of
Jesus Christ.
10 I beg you, on behalf of my son, whom I have begotten in my chains, Onesimus.12 So I have sent him back to you.

Gospel - Lk 14: 25-33

25 Now great crowds traveled with him.

First Reading - 1 Cor 4: 6b-15

6 brother contends against brother in court, and this before the unfaithful!
7 Now there is certainly an offense among you, beyond everything
else, when you have court cases against one another. Should you not
accept injury instead? Should you not endure being cheated instead?
8 But you are doing the injuring and the cheating, and this toward brothers!
9 Do you not know that the iniquitous will not possess the kingdom
of God? Do not choose to wander astray.

Psalm - Ps 145: 17-21

17 The Lord is just in all his ways and holy in all his works.
18 The Lord is near to all who call upon him, to all who call upon him in truth.
19 He will do the will of those who fear him, and he will heed their supplication and accomplish their salvation.
20 The Lord watches over all who love him. And he will destroy all sinners.
21 My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord, and may all flesh bless his holy name, in this time and forever and ever.

Gospel - Lk 6: 1-5

1 Now it happened that, on the second first Sabbath,
as he passed through the grain field, his disciples were separating the
ears of grain and eating them, by rubbing them in their hands.
2 Then certain Pharisees said to them, “Why are you doing what is not lawful on the Sabbaths?”
3 And responding to them, Jesus said: “Have you not read this, what
David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him?
4 How he entered into the house of God, and took the bread of the
Presence, and ate it, and gave it to those who were with him, though it
is not lawful for anyone to eat it, except the pries

First Reading - Ps 37: 3-6, 27-28, 39-40

3 Hope in the Lord and do good, and dwell in the land, and so you shall be pastured with its riches.
4 Delight in the Lord, and he will grant to you the petitions of your heart.
5 Reveal your way to the Lord, and hope in him, and he will accomplish it.
6 And he will bring forth your justice like the light, and your judgment like the midday.27 Turn away from evil and do good, and dwell forever and ever.
28 For the Lord loves judgment, and he will not abandon his
saints. They will be kept safe in eternity.

First Reading - Wis 9: 13-18b

13 For who among men can know the counsel of God? Or who can imagine the will of God?
14 For the thoughts of mortals are timid, and our foresight is uncertain.
15 For the corruptible body weighs down the soul, and this earthy dwelling presses many thoughts upon the mind.
16 And we assess with difficulty the things that are of earth, and
we discover with labor the things that are within our view.

First Reading - 1 Cor 4: 1-5

1 Accordingly, let man consider us to be ministers of Christ and attendants of the mysteries of God.
2 Here and now, it is required of attendants that each one be found to be faithful.
3 But as for me, it is such a small thing to be judged by you, or by the age of mankind. And neither do I judge myself.
4 For I have nothing on my conscience. But I am not justified by this. For the Lord is the One who judges me.
5 And so, do not choose to judge before the time, until the Lord
returns. He will illuminate the hidden things of the darkness, and he
will make manifest the decisions of hearts.

Gospel - Lk 5: 33-39

33 But they said to him, “Why do the disciples of
John fast frequently, and make supplications, and those of the
Pharisees act similarly, while yours eat and drink?”
34 And he said to them: “How can you cause the sons of the groom to fast, while the groom is still with them?
35 But the days will come when the groom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast, in those days.”
36 Then he also made a comparison for them: “For no one sews a
patch from a new garment onto an old garment.
