    Lectionary: 450

    Like a stream is the king’s heart in the hand of the LORD;
    wherever it pleases him, he directs it.

    All the ways of a man may be right in his own eyes,
    but it is the LORD who proves hearts.

    To do what is right and just
    is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.

    Haughty eyes and a proud heart–
    the tillage of the wicked is sin.

    The plans of the diligent are sure of profit,
    but all rash haste leads certainly to poverty.

    Whoever makes a fortune by a lying tongue
    is chasing a bubble over deadly snares.

    The soul of the wicked man desires evil;
    his neighbor finds no pity in his eyes.

    When the arrogant man is punished, the simple are the wiser;
    when the wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge.

    The just man appraises the house of the wicked:
    there is one who brings down the wicked to ruin.

    He who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor
    will himself also call and not be heard.

    forever and ever.
    R. Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands.

    Gospel

    The mother of Jesus and his brothers came to him
    but were unable to join him because of the crowd.
    He was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside
    and they wish to see you.”
    He said to them in reply, “My mother and my brothers 
    are those who hear the word of God and act on it.”
