Prima lettura

Hebrews 7:25-8:6

Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them. For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; who doesn't need, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices daily, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself. For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints a Son forever who has been perfected. Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this: we have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a servant of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord pitched, not man. For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer. For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law, who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, for he said, "See, you shall make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain." But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which on better promises has been given as law.

Salmo responsoriale

Psalm 40:7-8a, 8b-9, 10, 17

Then I said, "Behold, I have come. It is written about me in the book in the scroll. I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart." I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly. Behold, I will not seal my lips, LORD, you know. I have not hidden your righteousness within my heart. I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation. I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great assembly. But I am poor and needy. May the Lord think about me. You are my help and my deliverer. Don't delay, my God.

Vangelo

Mark 3:7-12

Ma Gesù, co' suoi discepoli, si ritrasse al mare, e gran moltitudine lo seguitò, da Galilea, e da Giudea, e da Gerusalemme, e da Idumea, e da oltre il Giordano; parimente, una gran moltitudine da' contorni di Tiro, e di Sidon, avendo udite le gran cose ch'egli faceva, venne a lui. Ed egli disse a' suoi discepoli, che vi fosse sempre una navicella appresso di lui, per la moltitudine; che talora non l'affollasse. Perciocchè egli ne avea guariti molti; talchè tutti coloro che aveano qualche flagello si avventavano a lui, per toccarlo. E gli spiriti immondi, quando lo vedevano, si gettavano davanti a lui, e gridavano, dicendo: Tu sei il Figliuol di Dio. Ma egli li sgridava forte acciocchè nol manifestassero.
