Reading 1: Am 7:10-17
Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying: 'Amos has rebelled against you in the midst of the house of Israel. The land is not able to withstand all his sermons. For Amos says this: "Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will be taken captive out of their own land."'
And Amaziah said to Amos, 'You, seer, go out and flee into the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there. And in Bethel, do not prophesy any longer, because it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is the house of the kingdom.' And Amos responded, and he said to Amaziah, 'I am not a prophet, and I am not the son of a prophet, but I am a herdsman plucking from wild fig trees. And the Lord took me, when I was following the flock, and the Lord said to me, "Go, prophesy to my people Israel." And now, hear the word of the Lord:
You say, You will not prophesy about Israel, and you will not rain your words upon the house of the idol." Because of that, the Lord says this: "Your wife will fornicate in the city, and your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword, and your soil will be measured with a string. And you will die on polluted land, and Israel will be taken into captivity out of their land.
Responsorial Psalm: Ps 19:8, 9, 10, 11
R. (10cd) The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
Alleluia: 2 Cor 5:19
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ
and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel: Matthew 9:1-8
And climbing into a boat, he crossed the sea, and he arrived at his own city. And behold, they brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Be strengthened in faith, son; your sins are forgiven you.” And behold, some of the scribes said within themselves, “He is blaspheming.” And when Jesus had perceived their thoughts, he said: “Why do you think such evil in your hearts? Which is easier to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk?’ But, so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,” he then said to the paralytic, “Rise up, take up your bed, and go into your house.” And he arose and went into his house. Then the crowd, seeing this, was frightened, and they glorified God, who gave such power to men.
