Wednesday of the Thirty-second Week in Ordinary Time (II)

Official Translation

Reading 1 – Titus 3.1-7

Beloved:
Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities,
to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
to speak evil of no one, nor be contentious,
to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.
For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived,
serving various passions and pleasures,
living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for humans appeared,
not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves,
but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of rebirth
and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;
that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Responsorial - Psalm 23.1-3a, 3b-4, 5, 6 Resp. 1

R. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He has me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.

R. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He leads me in the paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake.
Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
Your rod and your staff –
they comfort me.

R. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

You prepare a table before me,
in the presence of my foes.
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

R. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.

R. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

Gospel – Luke 17.11-19

On his way to Jerusalem, Jesus was passing along the borders of Samaria and Galilee.
As he entered into a certain village, ten men who were lepers met him.
Standing at a distance, they lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.”
As they went, they were cleansed.

One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice.
He fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. He was a Samaritan.
Jesus answered, “Were not ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
Was no one found to return to give glory to God, except this foreigner?”
Then he said to him, “Get up, and go your way. Your faith has saved you.”
