Ezekiel 24
1 In the ninth year, on the tenth day of the tenth month, the word of Yahweh was addressed to me as follows,
2 ‘Son of man, write down today’s date, yes, today’s, for this very day the king of Babylon began his attack on Jerusalem.
3 So pronounce a parable for this tribe of rebels. Say, “The Lord Yahweh says this: Put the pot on the fire; put it on; pour the water in!
4 Now put the cuts of meat all in together, all the best cuts, leg and shoulder. Fill it with the best bones.
5 Take the best of the flock, then heap wood underneath; boil it thoroughly until even the bones are cooked.
6 “For the Lord Yahweh says this: Disaster is in store for the bloody city, for that rusty cooking pot whose rust will not come off! Empty it, bit by bit, not bothering to draw lots;
7 for she is still full of bloodshed, she has put blood on the naked rock; she did not pour it on the ground so as to cover it with dust.
8 To make anger rise, to exact vengeance, I have put her blood on the naked rock, so that it should not be covered:
9 “So, the Lord Yahweh says this: Disaster is in store for the bloody city! I too plan to build a great fire.
10 Heap on the wood, light it, cook the meat, prepare the seasoning let the bones burn!
11 Put the empty pot on the coals to make it hot, until the bronze glows, the filth inside melts and the rust is burnt away!
12 “But all that rust would not come off in the fire.
13 Your filth is infamous. Since I have tried to purge you and you would not let yourself be purged of your filth, so now you will never be purged of your filth until I have sated my anger on you.
14 I, Yahweh, have spoken; this will happen; I shall act and not relent; I shall show no pity, no compassion. You will be judged as your conduct and actions deserve — declares the Lord Yahweh.” ‘
15 The word of Yahweh was addressed to me as follows,
16 ‘Son of man, at a blow I am about to deprive you of the delight of your eyes. But you are not to lament, not to weep, not to let your tears run down.
17 Groan in silence, do not go into mourning for the dead, knot your turban round your head, put your sandals on your feet, do not cover your beard, do not eat the usual food.’
18 I told this to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening, and the next morning I did as I had been ordered.
19 The people then said to me, ‘Will you not explain what meaning these actions have for us?’
20 I replied, ‘The word of Yahweh has been addressed to me as follows,
21 “Say to the House of Israel, the Lord Yahweh says this: I am about to profane my sanctuary, the pride of your strength, the delight of your eyes, the joy of your hearts. Your sons and daughters whom you have left behind will fall by the sword.
22 Then you will do as I have done: you will not cover your beards or eat the usual food;
23 you will keep your turbans on your heads and your sandals on your feet; you will not lament or weep but will waste away for your crimes, groaning among yourselves.
24 Thus Ezekiel is a sign for you. You will do exactly what he has done. And when this happens, you will know that I am Lord Yahweh!”
25 ‘And, son of man, the day that I deprive them of their strength, their crowning joy, the delight of their eyes, the joy of their hearts, their sons and daughters,
26 that day a survivor will bring you the news.
27 That day your mouth will be opened to speak to the survivor; you will speak and no longer be dumb; you will be a sign for them, and they will know that I am Yahweh.’
Ezekiel 25.
1 The word of Yahweh was addressed to me as follows,
2 ‘Son of man, turn towards the Ammonites and prophesy against them.
3 Say to the Ammonites, “Hear the word of the Lord Yahweh. The Lord Yahweh says this: “Since you gloated over my sanctuary when it was profaned, and over the land of Israel when it was ravaged, and over the House of Judah when it went into exile,
4 I shall let the sons of the East take possession of you; they will pitch their camps inside you, they will make their home in you. They will be the ones to eat your produce and drink your milk.
5 I shall turn Rabbah into a camel yard and the towns of Ammon into sheepfolds. And so you will know that I am Yahweh.
6 “The Lord Yahweh says this: Since you have clapped your hands and danced for joy, full of malicious delight at Israel’s fate,
7 my hand will be against you for this; I shall hand you over to be looted by the peoples, obliterate you as a nation and wipe you out as a country. I shall reduce you to nothing, and you will know that I am Yahweh.
8 “The Lord Yahweh says this: “Since Moab and Seir have said: Look at the House of Judah; it is no different from any other nation;
9 very well, I shall expose Moab’s heights; its cities will no longer be cities throughout the land — the jewels of the country, Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon and Kiriathaim.
10 I shall let the sons of the East and the Ammonites take possession of them, so that they will no longer be remembered by the nations.
11 I shall bring Moab to justice, and they will know that I am Yahweh.
12 “The Lord Yahweh says this: “Since Edom has taken revenge on the House of Judah and committed great crimes in doing so,
13 very well, the Lord Yahweh says this: My hand will be against Edom and denude it of human and animal. I shall lay it waste, from Teman as far as Dedan they will be put to the sword.
14 I shall take vengeance on Edom by means of my people Israel. They will treat Edom as my anger and fury dictate, and they will know this is my vengeance — declares the Lord Yahweh.
15 “The Lord Yahweh says this, “Since the Philistines have acted in revenge and, motivated by malice, have taken revenge, doing their best to destroy because of their long-standing hatred,
16 very well, the Lord Yahweh says this: My hand will be against the Philistines; I shall exterminate the Cherethites and destroy the rest of the coastal peoples.
17 I shall perform frightful acts of vengeance and inflict furious punishments on them; and they will know that I am Yahweh, when I exact my vengeance on them.” ‘
Luke 7
1 When he had come to the end of all he wanted the people to hear, he went into Capernaum.
2 A centurion there had a servant, a favourite of his, who was sick and near death.
3 Having heard about Jesus he sent some Jewish elders to him to ask him to come and heal his servant.
4 When they came to Jesus they pleaded earnestly with him saying, ‘He deserves this of you,
5 because he is well disposed towards our people; he built us our synagogue himself.’
6 So Jesus went with them, and was not very far from the house when the centurion sent word to him by some friends to say to him, ‘Sir, do not put yourself to any trouble because I am not worthy to have you under my roof;
7 and that is why I did not presume to come to you myself; let my boy be cured by your giving the word.
8 For I am under authority myself, and have soldiers under me; and I say to one man, “Go,” and he goes; to another, “Come here,” and he comes; to my servant, “Do this,” and he does it.’
9 When Jesus heard these words he was astonished at him and, turning round, said to the crowd following him, ‘I tell you, not even in Israel have I found faith as great as this.’
10 And when the messengers got back to the house they found the servant in perfect health.
11 It happened that soon afterwards he went to a town called Nain, accompanied by his disciples and a great number of people.
12 Now when he was near the gate of the town there was a dead man being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a considerable number of the townspeople was with her.
13 When the Lord saw her he felt sorry for her and said to her, ‘Don’t cry.’
14 Then he went up and touched the bier and the bearers stood still, and he said, ‘Young man, I tell you: get up.’
15 And the dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him to his mother.
16 Everyone was filled with awe and glorified God saying, ‘A great prophet has risen up among us; God has visited his people.’
17 And this view of him spread throughout Judaea and all over the countryside.
18 The disciples of John gave him all this news, and John, summoning two of his disciples,
19 sent them to the Lord to ask, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or are we to expect someone else?’
20 When the men reached Jesus they said, ‘John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask, “Are you the one who is to come or are we to expect someone else?” ‘
21 At that very time he cured many people of diseases and afflictions and of evil spirits, and gave the gift of sight to many who were blind.
22 Then he gave the messengers their answer, ‘Go back and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind see again, the lame walk, those suffering from virulent skin-diseases are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, the good news is proclaimed to the poor;
23 and blessed is anyone who does not find me a cause of falling.’
24 When John’s messengers had gone he began to talk to the people about John,
25 ‘What did you go out into the desert to see? A reed swaying in the breeze? No! Then what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Look, those who go in magnificent clothes and live luxuriously are to be found at royal courts!
26 Then what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet:
27 he is the one of whom scripture says: Look, I am going to send my messenger in front of you to prepare your way before you.
28 ‘I tell you, of all the children born to women, there is no one greater than John; yet the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.’
29 All the people who heard him, and the tax collectors too, acknowledged God’s saving justice by accepting baptism from John;
30 but by refusing baptism from him the Pharisees and the lawyers thwarted God’s plan for them.
31 ‘What comparison, then, can I find for the people of this generation? What are they like?
32 They are like children shouting to one another while they sit in the market place: We played the pipes for you, and you wouldn’t dance; we sang dirges, and you wouldn’t cry.
33 ‘For John the Baptist has come, not eating bread, not drinking wine, and you say, “He is possessed.”
34 The Son of man has come, eating and drinking, and you say, “Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.”
35 Yet wisdom is justified by all her children.’
36 One of the Pharisees invited him to a meal. When he arrived at the Pharisee’s house and took his place at table,
37 suddenly a woman came in, who had a bad name in the town. She had heard he was dining with the Pharisee and had brought with her an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 She waited behind him at his feet, weeping, and her tears fell on his feet, and she wiped them away with her hair; then she covered his feet with kisses and anointed them with the ointment.
39 When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, ‘If this man were a prophet, he would know who this woman is and what sort of person it is who is touching him and what a bad name she has.’
40 Then Jesus took him up and said, ‘Simon, I have something to say to you.’ He replied, ‘Say on, Master.’
41 ‘There was once a creditor who had two men in his debt; one owed him five hundred denarii, the other fifty.
42 They were unable to pay, so he let them both off. Which of them will love him more?’
43 Simon answered, ‘The one who was let off more, I suppose.’ Jesus said, ‘You are right.’
44 Then he turned to the woman and said to Simon, ‘You see this woman? I came into your house, and you poured no water over my feet, but she has poured out her tears over my feet and wiped them away with her hair.
45 You gave me no kiss, but she has been covering my feet with kisses ever since I came in.
46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 For this reason I tell you that her sins, many as they are, have been forgiven her, because she has shown such great love. It is someone who is forgiven little who shows little love.’
48 Then he said to her, ‘Your sins are forgiven.’
49 Those who were with him at table began to say to themselves, ‘Who is this man, that even forgives sins?’
50 But he said to the woman, ‘Your faith has saved you; go in peace.’

Reading 1, Revelation 4:1-11
1 Then, in my vision, I saw a door open in heaven and heard the same voice speaking to me, the voice like a trumpet, saying, ‘Come up here: I will show you what is to take place in the future.’
2 With that, I fell into ecstasy and I saw a throne standing in heaven, and the One who was sitting on the throne,
3 and the One sitting there looked like a diamond and a ruby. There was a rainbow encircling the throne, and this looked like an emerald.
4 Round the throne in a circle were twenty-four thrones, and on them twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white robes with golden crowns on their heads.
5 Flashes of lightning were coming from the throne, and the sound of peals of thunder, and in front of the throne there were seven flaming lamps burning, the seven Spirits of God.
6 In front of the throne was a sea as transparent as crystal. In the middle of the throne and around it, were four living creatures all studded with eyes, in front and behind.
7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second like a bull, the third living creature had a human face, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle.
8 Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was studded with eyes all the way round as well as inside; and day and night they never stopped singing: Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God, the Almighty; who was, and is and is to come.’
9 Every time the living creatures glorified and honoured and gave thanks to the One sitting on the throne, who lives for ever and ever,
10 the twenty-four elders prostrated themselves before him to worship the One who lives for ever and ever, and threw down their crowns in front of the throne, saying:
11 You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honour and power, for you made the whole universe; by your will, when it did not exist, it was created.
Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 150:1-2, 3-4, 5-6
1 Alleluia! Praise God in his holy place, praise him in the heavenly vault of his power,
2 praise him for his mighty deeds, praise him for all his greatness.
3 Praise him with fanfare of trumpet, praise him with harp and lyre,
4 praise him with tambourines and dancing, praise him with strings and pipes,
5 praise him with the clamour of cymbals, praise him with triumphant cymbals,
6 Let everything that breathes praise Yahweh. Alleluia!
Gospel, Luke 19:11-28
11 While the people were listening to this he went on to tell a parable, because he was near Jerusalem and they thought that the kingdom of God was going to show itself then and there.
12 Accordingly he said, ‘A man of noble birth went to a distant country to be appointed king and then return.
13 He summoned ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds, telling them, “Trade with these, until I get back.”
14 But his compatriots detested him and sent a delegation to follow him with this message, “We do not want this man to be our king.”
15 ‘Now it happened that on his return, having received his appointment as king, he sent for those servants to whom he had given the money, to find out what profit each had made by trading.
16 The first came in, “Sir,” he said, “your one pound has brought in ten.”
17 He replied, “Well done, my good servant! Since you have proved yourself trustworthy in a very small thing, you shall have the government of ten cities.”
18 Then came the second, “Sir,” he said, “your one pound has made five.”
19 To this one also he said, “And you shall be in charge of five cities.”
20 Next came the other, “Sir,” he said, “here is your pound. I put it away safely wrapped up in a cloth
21 because I was afraid of you; for you are an exacting man: you gather in what you have not laid out and reap what you have not sown.”
22 He said to him, “You wicked servant! Out of your own mouth I condemn you. So you knew that I was an exacting man, gathering in what I have not laid out and reaping what I have not sown?
23 Then why did you not put my money in the bank? On my return I could have drawn it out with interest.”
24 And he said to those standing by, “Take the pound from him and give it to the man who has ten pounds.”
25 And they said to him, “But, sir, he has ten pounds . . .”
26 “I tell you, to everyone who has will be given more; but anyone who has not will be deprived even of what he has.
27 “As for my enemies who did not want me for their king, bring them here and execute them in my presence.” ‘
28 When he had said this he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
