Reading 1
Beloved:
Concerning
the salvation of your souls
the
prophets who prophesied about the grace that was to be yours
searched
and investigated it
investigating the time and circumstances
that the
Spirit of Christ within them indicated
when it
testified in advance
to the
sufferings destined for Christ
and the
glories to follow them.
It
was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you
with
regard to the things that have now been announced to you
by those
who preached the Good News to you
through
the Holy Spirit sent from heaven,
things
into which angels longed to look.
Therefore,
gird up the loins of your mind, live soberly,
and set
your hopes completely on the grace to be brought to you
at the
revelation of Jesus Christ.
Like
obedient children,
do not
act in compliance with the desires of your former ignorance
but, as
he who called you is holy,
be holy
yourselves in every aspect of your conduct,
for it is written, Be holy because I am holy.
Responsorial Psalm
R.
(2a) The Lord has made
known his salvation.
Sing
to the LORD a new song,
for he
has done wondrous deeds;
His
right hand has won victory for him,
his holy
arm.
R.
The Lord has made known his salvation.
The
LORD has made his salvation known:
in the
sight of the nations he has revealed his justice.
He
has remembered his kindness and his faithfulness
toward
the house of Israel.
R.
The Lord has made known his salvation.
All
the ends of the earth have seen
the
salvation by our God.
Sing
joyfully to the LORD, all you lands;
break
into song; sing praise.
R.
The Lord has made known his salvation.
Gospel
Peter
began to say to Jesus,
“We
have given up everything and followed you.”
Jesus
said, “Amen, I say to you,
there is
no one who has given up house or brothers or sisters
or mother
or father or children or lands
for my
sake and for the sake of the Gospel
who will
not receive a hundred times more now in this present age:
houses
and brothers and sisters
and
mothers and children and lands,
with
persecutions, and eternal life in the age to come.
But many that are first will
be last, and the last will be first.”
