Première lecture

Ruth 2:1-3, 8-11; 4:13-17

Naomi had a relative of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz. Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, "Let me now go to the field, and glean among the ears of grain after him in whose sight I find favor." She said to her, "Go, my daughter." She went, and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and she happened to come to the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech. Then Boaz said to Ruth, "Listen, my daughter. Don't go to glean in another field, and don't go from here, but stay here close to my maidens. Let your eyes be on the field that they reap, and go after them. Haven't I commanded the young men not to touch you? When you are thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink from that which the young men have drawn." Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, "Why have I found favor in your sight, that you should take knowledge of me, since I am a foreigner?" Boaz answered her, "I have been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father, your mother, and the land of your birth, and have come to a people that you didn't know before. So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she bore a son. The women said to Naomi, "Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let his name be famous in Israel. He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him." Naomi took the child, laid him in her bosom, and became nurse to him. The women, her neighbors, gave him a name, saying, "A son is born to Naomi". They named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

Psaume responsorial

Psalm 128:1b-2, 3, 4, 5

Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways. For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you. Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table. Behold, this is how the man who fears the LORD is blessed. May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

Évangile

Matthew 23:1-12

Alors Jésus parla au peuple et à ses disciples, et leur dit: Les scribes et les pharisiens sont assis dans la chaire de Moïse. Observez donc et faites tout ce qu'ils vous disent d'observer; mais ne faites pas comme ils font, parce qu'ils disent et ne font pas. Car ils lient des fardeaux pesants et insupportables, et les mettent sur les épaules des hommes; mais ils ne veulent pas les remuer du doigt. Et ils font toutes leurs actions, afin que les hommes les voient; car ils portent de larges phylactères, et ils allongent les franges de leurs vêtements; Ils aiment les premières places dans les festins, et les premiers sièges dans les synagogues; Ils aiment à être salués dans les places publiques, et à être appelés par les hommes: Maître, maître. Mais vous, ne vous faites point appeler maître; car vous n'avez qu'un Maître, le Christ; et pour vous, vous êtes tous frères. Et n'appelez personne sur la terre votre père; car vous n'avez qu'un seul Père, celui qui est dans les cieux. Et ne vous faites point appeler docteur; car vous n'avez qu'un seul Docteur, le Christ. Mais que le plus grand d'entre vous soit votre serviteur. Car quiconque s'élèvera sera abaissé; et quiconque s'abaissera sera élevé.
