Première lecture
Sirach 17:1-15
The Lord created mankind out of earth, and turned them back to it again. He gave them days by number, and a set time, and gave them authority over the things that are on it. He endowed them with strength proper to them, and made them according to his own image. He put the fear of man upon all flesh, and gave him dominion over beasts and birds. He gave them counsel, tongue, eyes, ears, and heart to have understanding. He filled them with the knowledge of wisdom, and showed them good and evil. He set his eye upon their hearts, to show them the majesty of his works. And they will praise his holy name, that they may declare the majesty of his works. He added to them knowledge, and gave them a law of life for a heritage. He made an everlasting covenant with them, and showed them his decrees. Their eyes saw the majesty of his glory. Their ears heard the glory of his voice. He said to them, "Beware of all unrighteousness." So he gave them commandment, each man concerning his neighbor. Their ways are ever before him. They will not be hidden from his eyes.
Psaume responsorial
Psalm 103:13-14, 15-16, 17-18
Like a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him. For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust. As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more. But the LORD's loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children's children, to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.
Évangile
Mark 10:13-16
They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them. But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don't forbid them, for God's Kingdom belongs to such as these. Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive God's Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it." He took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
