    Lectionary: 943-947

    Reading 1 Sir 50:22-24

    And now, bless the God of all,
    who has done wondrous things on earth;
    Who fosters people's growth from their mother's womb,
    and fashions them according to his will!
    May he grant you joy of heart
    and may peace abide among you;
    May his goodness toward us endure in Israel
    to deliver us in our days.

    Responsorial Psalm Ps 145:2-3, 4-5, 6-7, 8-9, 10-11

    R. (see 1) I will praise your name for ever, Lord.
    Every day will I bless you,
    and I will praise your name forever and ever.
    Great is the LORD and highly to be praised;
    his greatness is unsearchable.
    R. I will praise your name for ever, Lord.
    Generation after generation praises your works
    and proclaims your might.
    They speak of the splendor of your glorious majesty
    and tell of your wondrous works.
    R. I will praise your name for ever, Lord.
    They discourse of the power of your terrible deeds
    and declare your greatness.
    They publish the fame of your abundant goodness
    and joyfully sing of your justice.
    R. I will praise your name for ever, Lord.
    The LORD is gracious and merciful,
    slow to anger and of great kindness.
    The LORD is good to all
    and compassionate toward all his works.
    R. I will praise your name for ever, Lord.
    Let all your works give you thanks, O LORD,
    and let your faithful ones bless you.
    Let them discourse of the glory of your Kingdom
    and speak of your might.
    R. I will praise your name for ever, Lord

    Reading 2 1 Cor 1:3-9

    Brothers and sisters:
    Grace to you and peace from God our Father
    and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    I give thanks to my God always on your account
    for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus,
    that in him you were enriched in every way,
    with all discourse and all knowledge,
    as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you,
    so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift
    as you wait for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
    He will keep you firm to the end,
    irreproachable on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
    God is faithful,
    and by him you were called to fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

    Alleluia Ps 66:16

    R. Alleluia, alleluia.
    Hear now, all you who fear God,
    while I declare what he has done for me.
    R. Alleluia, alleluia.

    Gospel Lk 17:11-19

    As Jesus continued his journey to Jerusalem,
    he traveled through Samaria and Galilee.
    As he was entering a village, ten persons with leprosy met him.
    They stood at a distance from him and raised their voices, saying,
    "Jesus, Master! Have pity on us!"
    And when he saw them, he said,
    "Go show yourselves to the priests."
    As they were going they were cleansed.
    And one of them, realizing he had been healed,
    returned, glorifying God in a loud voice;
    and he fell at the feet of Jesus and thanked him.
    He was a Samaritan.
    Jesus said in reply,
    "Ten were cleansed, were they not?
    Where are the other nine?
    Has none but this foreigner returned to give thanks to God?"
    Then he said to him, "Stand up and go;
    your faith has saved you."
