First Reading

Galatians 1:6-12

6I wonder that you have been so quickly transferred, from him who called you into the grace of Christ, over to another gospel. 7For there is no other, except that there are some persons who disturb you and who want to overturn the Gospel of Christ. 8But if anyone, even we ourselves or an Angel from Heaven, were to preach to you a gospel other than the one that we have preached to you, let him be anathema. 9Just as we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone has preached a gospel to you, other than that which you have received, let him be anathema. 10For am I now persuading men, or God? Or, am I seeking to please men? If I still were pleasing men, then I would not be a servant of Christ. 11For I would have you understand, brothers, that the Gospel which has been preached by me is not according to man. 12And I did not receive it from man, nor did I learn it, except through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Responsorial Psalm

Psalm 110

2Great are the works of the Lord, exquisite in all his intentions. 3Confession and magnificence are his work. And his justice remains from age to age. 4He has created a memorial to his wonders; he is a merciful and compassionate Lord. 5He has given food to those who fear him. He will be mindful of his covenant in every age. 6He will announce the virtue of his works to his people, 7so that he may give them the inheritance of the nations. The works of his hands are truth and judgment. 8All his commands are faithful: confirmed from age to age, created in truth and fairness. 9He has sent redemption upon his people. He has commanded his covenant for all eternity. Holy and terrible is his name.

Gospel

Luke 10:25-37

25And behold, a certain expert in the law rose up, testing him and saying, “Teacher, what must I do to possess eternal life?” 26But he said to him: “What is written in the law? How do you read it?” 27In response, he said: “You shall love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from all your strength, and from all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” 28And he said to him: “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.” 29But since he wanted to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30Then Jesus, taking this up, said: “A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he happened upon robbers, who now also plundered him. And inflicting him with wounds, they went away, leaving him behind, half-alive. 31And it happened that a certain priest was descending along the same way. And seeing him, he passed by. 32And similarly a Levite, when he was near the place, also saw him, and he passed by. 33But a certain Samaritan, being on a journey, came near him. And seeing him, he was moved by mercy. 34And approaching him, he bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. And setting him on his pack animal, he brought him to an inn, and he took care of him. 35And the next day, he took out two denarii, and he gave them to the proprietor, and he said: ‘Take care of him. And whatever extra you will have spent, I will repay to you at my return.’ 36Which of these three, does it seem to you, was a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?” 37Then he said, “The one who acted with mercy toward him.” And Jesus said to him, “Go, and act similarly.”
