Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time

Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time

1. Reading

Book of Habakkuk

1,2-3.2,2-4.

]How long, O LORD? I cry for help but you do not listen! I cry out to you, "Violence!" but you do not intervene.
]Why do you let me see ruin; why must I look at misery? Destruction and violence are before me; there is strife, and clamorous discord.
]Then the LORD answered me and said: Write down the vision Clearly upon the tablets, so that one can read it readily.
]For the vision still has its time, presses on to fulfillment, and will not disappoint; If it delays, wait for it, it will surely come, it will not be late.
]The rash man has no integrity; but the just man, because of his faith, shall live.

Psalm

Psalms

95(94),1-2.6-7.8-9.

]Come, let us sing joyfully to the LORD;
let us acclaim the Rock of our salvation.
]Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;
let us joyfully sing psalms to him.
]Come, let us bow down in worship;
let us kneel before the LORD who made us.
]For he is our God,
and we are the people he shepherds, the flock he guides.
]Oh, that today you would hear his voice:
“Harden not your hearts as at Meribah,
as in the day of Massah in the desert,
]Where your fathers tempted me;
they tested me though they had seen my works.”  

2. Reading

Second Letter to Timothy

1,6-8.13-14.

]Beloved: I remind you to stir into flame the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands.
]For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control.
]So do not be ashamed of your testimony to our Lord, nor of me, a prisoner for his sake; but bear your share of hardship for the gospel with the strength that comes from God.
]Take as your norm the sound words that you heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
]Guard this rich trust with the help of the holy Spirit that dwells within us.

Gospel

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke

17,5-10.

]The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith."
]The Lord replied, "If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you would say to (this) mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.
]Who among you would say to your servant who has just come in from plowing or tending sheep in the field, 'Come here immediately and take your place at table'?
]Would he not rather say to him, 'Prepare something for me to eat. Put on your apron and wait on me while I eat and drink. You may eat and drink when I am finished'?
]Is he grateful to that servant because he did what was commanded?
]So should it be with you. When you have done all you have been commanded, say, 'We are unprofitable servants; we have done what we were obliged to do.'"
