Reading 1 (NM 11:25-29)
Reading 2 (Jas 5:1-6)
The LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to Moses.
Taking some of the spirit that was on Moses, the LORD
bestowed it on the seventy elders; and as the spirit came to
rest on them, they prophesied. Now two men, one named
Eldad and the other Medad, were not in the gathering but
had been left in the camp. They too had been on the list, but
had not gone out to the tent; yet the spirit came to rest on
them also, and they prophesied in the camp. So, when a
young man quickly told Moses, "Eldad and Medad are
prophesying in the camp, " Joshua, son of Nun, who from his
youth had been Moses?aide, said, "Moses, my lord, stop
them." But Moses answered him, "Are you jealous for my
sake? Would that all the people of the LORD were prophets!
Would that the LORD might bestow his spirit on them all!"
Come now, you rich, weep and wail over your
impending miseries. Your wealth has rotted
away, your clothes have become moth-eaten,
your gold and silver have corroded, and that
corrosion will be a testimony against you; it will
devour your flesh like a fire. You have stored up
treasure for the last days. Behold, the wages you
withheld from the workers who harvested your
fields are crying aloud; and the cries of the
harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of
hosts. You have lived on earth in luxury and
pleasure; you have fattened your hearts for the
day of slaughter. You have condemned; you
have murdered the righteous one;
he offers you no resistance.
Gospel (Mk 9:38-43,45-47-48)
At that time, John said to Jesus, "Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, and we tried to
prevent him because he does not follow us." Jesus replied, "Do not prevent him. There is no one who performs a
mighty deed in my name who can at the same time speak ill of me. For whoever is not against us is for us. Anyone
who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his
reward. "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great
millstone were put around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off.
It is better for you to enter into life maimed than with two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire.
And if your foot causes you to sin, cut if off. It is better for you to enter into life crippled than with two feet to be
thrown into Gehenna. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. Better for you to enter into the kingdom of
God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna, where 'their worm does not die, and the fire is
not quenched.'"
