RESPONSORIAL PSALM<br />

Ps 66:2-3, 5-6, 8. Rv.4<br />

1. O God, be gracious and bless us<br />

and let your face shed its light upon us.<br />

So will your ways be known upon earth<br />

and all nations learn your saving help. R.<br />

2. Let the nations be glad and exult<br />

for you rule the world with justice.<br />

With fairness you rule the peoples,<br />

you guide the nations on earth. R.<br />

3. Let the peoples praise you, O God;<br />

let all the peoples praise you.<br />

May God still give us his blessing<br />

till the ends of the earth revere him. R.<br />

SECOND READING<br />

A reading from the first letter of St Paul to the Corinthians 3: 9-11. 16-17<br />

You are God’s building. By the grace God gave me, I succeeded as an architect and laid the foundations, on which<br />

someone else is doing the building. Everyone doing the building must work carefully. For the foundation, nobody<br />

can lay any other than the one which has already been laid, that is Jesus Christ.<br />

Didn’t you realise that you were God’s temple and that the Spirit of God was living among you? If anybody should<br />

destroy the temple of God, God will destroy him, because the temple of God is sacred; and you are that temple.<br />

The word of the Lord.<br />

Thanks be to God.<br />
