Lesung: Jer 1,4-10
Evangelium: Lk 10,1-9 |
Lesung: Buch des Propheten Jeremia 1,4-10: The word of the Lord came to me, saying, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart; I
appointed you as a prophet to the nations." "Ah, Sovereign Lord," I
said, "I do not know how to speak; I am only a child." But the Lord said
to me, "Do not
say, 'I am only a child.' You must go to everyone I send you to and say
whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and
will rescue
you," declares the Lord. Then the Lord reached out his hand and touched
my mouth and said to me, "Now, I have put my words in your mouth. See,
today I
appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to
destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant." |
Evangelium: Lukas 10,1-9:
The Lord appointed seventy-two disciples and sent them two by two ahead
of him to every town and place where he was about to
go. He told them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.
Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his
harvest field. Go! I
am sending you out like lambs among wolves. Do not take a purse or bag
or sandals; and do not greet anyone on the road. When you enter a house,
first say,
`Peace to this house.' If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest
on him; if not, it will return to you. Stay in that house, eating and
drinking whatever they
give you, for the worker deserves his wages. Do not move around from
house to house. When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is set
before you.
Heal the sick who are there and tell them, `The kingdom of God is near
you.' |
