Première lecture

1 Maccabees 2:15-29

And the king's officers who were enforcing the apostasy came into the city Modin to sacrifice. Many of Israel came to them, and Mattathias and his sons were gathered together. The king's officers answered and spoke to Mattathias, saying, "You are a ruler and an honorable and great man in this city, and strengthened with sons and kindred. Now therefore come first and do the commandment of the king, as all the nations have done, including the men of Judah and those who remain in Jerusalem. You and your house will be numbered among the king's friends, and you and your sons will be honored with silver and gold and many gifts." And Mattathias answered and said with a loud voice, "If all the nations that are in the house of the king's dominion listen to him, to fall away each one from the worship of his fathers, and have chosen to follow his commandments, yet I and my sons and my kindred will walk in the covenant of our fathers. Far be it from us that we should forsake the law and the ordinances. We will not listen to the king's words, to turn aside from our worship, to the right hand, or to the left." When he had finished speaking these words, a Jew came in the sight of all to sacrifice on the altar which was at Modin, according to the king's commandment.

Psaume responsorial

Psalm 50:1b-2, 5-6, 14-15

The Mighty One, God, the LORD, speaks, and calls the earth from sunrise to sunset. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines out. "Gather my saints together to me, those who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice." The heavens shall declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge. Selah. Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Pay your vows to the Most High. Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honor me."

Évangile

Luke 19:41-44

Et quand il fut près de la ville, en la voyant, il pleura sur elle, et dit: Oh! si tu avais connu toi aussi, du moins en ce jour qui t'est donné, les choses qui regardent ta paix! mais maintenant elles sont cachées à tes yeux. Car des jours viendront sur toi, où tes ennemis t'environneront de tranchées, et t'entoureront et te serreront de toutes parts; Et ils te détruiront toi et tes enfants au milieu de toi, et ils ne laisseront chez toi pierre sur pierre, parce que tu n'as point connu le temps où tu as été visitée.
