Responsorial Psalm

Psalm 84

9I will listen to what the Lord God may be saying to me. For he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints, and to those who are being converted to the heart. 10So then, truly his salvation is near to those who fear him, so that glory may inhabit our land. 11Mercy and truth have met each other. Justice and peace have kissed. 12Truth has risen from the earth, and justice has gazed down from heaven. 13For so will the Lord give goodness, and our earth will give her fruit. 14Justice will walk before him, and he will set his steps upon the way.
