Heutige Lesungen

Erste Lesung

Exodus 14:5-18

The king of Egypt was told that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed toward the people, and they said, "What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?" He prepared his chariot, and took his army with him; and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, with captains over all of them. The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand. The Egyptians pursued them. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and his army overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal Zephon. When Pharaoh came near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were very afraid. The children of Israel cried out to the LORD. They said to Moses, "Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you treated us this way, to bring us out of Egypt? Isn't this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, 'Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians'? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness." Moses said to the people, "Don't be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will work for you today; for you will never again see the Egyptians whom you have seen today. The LORD will fight for you, and you shall be still." The LORD said to Moses, "Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward. Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. Then the children of Israel shall go into the middle of the sea on dry ground. Behold, I myself will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they will go in after them. I will get myself honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies, over his chariots, and over his horsemen. The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD when I have gotten myself honor over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen."

Antwortpsalm

Exodus 15:1bc-2, 3-4, 5-6

Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the LORD, and said, "I will sing to the LORD, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea. The LORD is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father's God, and I will exalt him. The LORD is a man of war. The LORD is his name. He has cast Pharaoh's chariots and his army into the sea. His chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea. The deeps cover them. They went down into the depths like a stone. Your right hand, LORD, is glorious in power. Your right hand, LORD, dashes the enemy in pieces.

Evangelium

Matthew 12:38-42

Da antworteten etliche unter den Schriftgelehrten und Pharisäern und sprachen: Meister, wir wollten gern ein Zeichen von dir sehen. Und er antwortete und sprach zu ihnen: Die böse und ehebrecherische Art sucht ein Zeichen; und es wird ihr kein Zeichen gegeben werden denn das Zeichen des Propheten Jona. Denn gleichwie Jona war drei Tage und drei Nächte in des Walfisches Bauch, also wird des Menschen Sohn drei Tage und drei Nächte mitten in der Erde sein. Die Leute von Ninive werden auftreten am Jüngsten Gericht mit diesem Geschlecht und werden es verdammen; denn sie taten Buße nach der Predigt des Jona. Und siehe, hier ist mehr denn Jona. Die Königin von Mittag wird auftreten am Jüngsten Gericht mit diesem Geschlecht und wird es verdammen; denn sie kam vom Ende der Erde, Salomons Weisheit zu hören. Und siehe, hier ist mehr denn Salomo.
