Nathan
said to David:
“Thus
says the LORD God of Israel:
‘I
anointed you king of Israel.
I
rescued you from the hand of Saul.
I
gave you your lord’s house and your lord’s wives for your own.
I
gave you the house of Israel and of Judah.
And
if this were not enough, I could count up for you still more.
Why
have you spurned the Lord and done evil in his sight?
You
have cut down Uriah the Hittite with the sword;
you took
his wife as your own,
and him
you killed with the sword of the Ammonites.
Now,
therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house,
because
you have despised me
and have
taken the wife of Uriah to be your wife.’
Then
David said to Nathan,
“I
have sinned against the LORD.”
Nathan
answered David:
“The
LORD on his part has forgiven your sin:
you shall not die.”
Responsorial Psalm
R.
(cf. 5c)Lord, forgive the
wrong I have done.
Blessed
is the one whose fault is taken away,
whose sin
is covered.
Blessed
the man to whom the LORD imputes not guilt,
in whose
spirit there is no guile.
R.
Lord, forgive the wrong I have done.
I
acknowledged my sin to you,
my guilt
I covered not.
I said,
“I confess my faults to the LORD,”
and you
took away the guilt of my sin.
R.
Lord, forgive the wrong I have done.
You
are my shelter; from distress you will preserve me;
with glad
cries of freedom you will ring me round.
R.
Lord, forgive the wrong I have done.
Be
glad in the LORD and rejoice, you just;
exult,
all you upright of heart.
R.
Lord, forgive the wrong I have done.
Reading 2
Brothers
and sisters:
We
who know that a person is not justified by works of the law
but
through faith in Jesus Christ,
even we
have believed in Christ Jesus
that we
may be justified by faith in Christ
and not
by works of the law,
because
by works of the law no one will be justified.
For
through the law I died to the law,
that I
might live for God.
I
have been crucified with Christ;
yet I
live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me;
insofar
as I now live in the flesh,
I
live by faith in the Son of God
who has
loved me and given himself up for me.
I do
not nullify the grace of God;
for if
justification comes through the law,
then Christ died for nothing.
Gospel
A Pharisee
invited Jesus to dine with him,
and he
entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at table.
Now
there was a sinful woman in the city
who
learned that he was at table in the house of the Pharisee.
Bringing
an alabaster flask of ointment,
she stood
behind him at his feet weeping
and began
to bathe his feet with her tears.
Then
she wiped them with her hair,
kissed
them, and anointed them with the ointment.
When
the Pharisee who had invited him saw this he said to himself,
“If
this man were a prophet,
he would
know who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him,
that she
is a sinner.”
Jesus
said to him in reply,
“Simon,
I have something to say to you.”
“Tell
me, teacher, ” he said.
“Two
people were in debt to a certain creditor;
one owed
five hundred days’ wages and the other owed fifty.
Since
they were unable to repay the debt, he forgave it for both.
Which
of them will love him more?”
Simon
said in reply,
“The
one, I suppose, whose larger debt was forgiven.”
He
said to him, “You have judged rightly.”
Then
he turned to the woman and said to Simon,
“Do
you see this woman?
When
I entered your house, you did not give me water for my feet,
but she
has bathed them with her tears
and wiped
them with her hair.
You
did not give me a kiss,
but she
has not ceased kissing my feet since the time I entered.
You
did not anoint my head with oil,
but she
anointed my feet with ointment.
So I
tell you, her many sins have been forgiven
because
she has shown great love.
But
the one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
He
said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
The
others at table said to themselves,
“Who
is this who even forgives sins?”
But
he said to the woman,
“Your
faith has saved you; go in peace.”
Afterward
he journeyed from one town and village to another,
preaching
and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God.
Accompanying
him were the Twelve
and some
women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities,
Mary,
called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,
Joanna,
the wife of Herod’s steward Chuza,
Susanna,
and many others who provided for them
out of
their resources.
